INT. BEDROOM - EVENING DANNY, A 16 year old teenager reaches back from the lens

after clicking the record button. DANNY

*clears throat* Hi there, my

names Danny. Danny Lyman, and

this is a love story. More

importantly, this is my love

story. Well, a teenagers love

story. So! Where to begin, thats

a good question. Ok. Lets start

here.CUT TO.

EXT. WOODS - DAY DANNY and JOSH are sitting on a bench, it seems to be a

sunny after school afternoon. The two boys are in dressed

down school uniform and throwing stones at a can. DANNY (V.O)

It was a relaxed after school

afternoon and, Oh by the way: The shot freezes on a shot of JOSH throwing a stone.

Thats Josh, hes my best friend

and, well, we may be similar on a

physical level. But when it comes

to intellect yeah hes not a

rocket scientist.The stone Josh threw hits the can and knocks it over.

JOSHYes! I knocked the can over. So

you owe me a tenner.

DANNY(confused)

When did we bet on this? JOSH

like, literally before we started

throwing the rocks.

Ok, this needs an explanation. CUT TO.

INT. BEDROOM - EVENING DANNY

Kayla was a girl, well to me at

the time she was more than just a

girl. She was a smile that never

failed to brighten my day. Her

presence always made me feel good,

even if she was standing on the

other side of the room. She was

*sudden change in tone* Blah Blah

Blah the point was she wasnt my

girlfriend. And I was on a non

stop mission to change that. Kayla

and me were meant to be. See, it

even rhymes. Although the grammar

in that sentence is

appalling.*sips energy drink*(During DANNYs romantic paragraph above, there will be a

montage of KAYLA.) So if youve interested, sit back

and relax, because, if I can sayso myself, this is a great story.

So good that I even came up with a

title and everything. DANNY lifts up a board with Meant To Be hand-written on it.

The title moves out of the board as the background fades

and we are left with Meant To Beon a black background. TITLE
