EXT. CASTLE - DRIVEWAY. NIGHT

Mark has driven to Sydney's house. It is late October nearly Halloween and he comes dressed in a casual wear. He then walks to the front door, whilst doing this he is playing with his hair and making sure that he looks good. He is very nervous. Mark then rings the door bell.

MARK(singing)

Ding Dong. Ding Dong. The door bells ringing, time for you to answer the door!

Mark then waits patiently for sydney.

INT. CASTLE- UPSTAIRS

Sydney is in her room putting her make-up on before the door rings. She is also feeling very anxious as it rings. However her father, Dominic also hears the bell and he is very aggres-sive due to not feeding for a few months. Dominic is wearing a red cape and black clothing.

DOMINIC(Deep, booming, scary voice)

Who is that at my door? I smell blood. This is now my feast for the day.

Dominic races down stairs towards the door in order for him to attack his victim.

SYDNEYNo! Dad he’s my date. Leave him alone. Why wont you let me live a normal life, I didn’t choose to be a vampire you know?

Sydney begins to cry.

DOMINIC(aggressively)

You are going on a date without my permission. Really? Lets see if he likes you this much to be my feast.

Dominic then grabs Sydney and pushes her aside.

SYDNEYDad! Don’t you dare. If you do bite him. I will disown you and never talk to you again. I will leave home.

DOMINIC You wouldn’t dare?

SYDNEYYes I would. Try me? Let me go on this date, he’s the first boy that shows any interest in me.

DOMINICFine!! But you never go on a date again for as long as I am alive and you known Im already 745 years old so that not going to be any time soon.

He then lets Sydney answer the door so that she can leave the house and then go get and meet Mark. She is dressed in a typi-cal gothic dress that is red and black.

EXT. CASTLE- FRONT DOOR

Sydney opens the door to greet Mark. Whilst Dominic is stand-ing behind the door, listening to the conversation that they are having.

MARKWhat took you so long? Making your-self looking as beautiful as ever. You eye-liner looks on point so it was worth the wait.

SYDNEY Yes. I was doing my make up and thank you but Im not beautiful.

MARKWell I wouldn’t date you if you weren't beautiful. Those legs look sexy anyway.

DOMINIC(Aggressively)

WHAT?

Dominic is very aggressive at the comment that Mark has made. Sydney must slams the door in Marks face.

DOMINICYou are not going on that date with that. that... Pervert

SYDNEYYes I am. He was only joking, he didn’t mean it in a sexual way. Bye dad Ill be back at Midnight.

Sydney leaves the castle, her and Mark walk to his car whilst Dominic stares at them through the window.

INT. MARKS CAR- NIGHT TIME

Mark is driving a Nissan Juke. He and her get in the car and embrace and kiss whilst in there at which Dominic is still watching.

MARKTell me about your family. You’re father seems very controlling and protective.

SYDNEYHe is I hate him. He prefers my brother over me, sometimes I feel like he doesn’t even love me, I don’t think he’s protective, I think he’s just too controlling.

MARKWhat about you’re mom?

SYDNEYI don’t have a mom, she was murdered shortly after my brothers birth. I only live with my father and brother and their both annoying.

MARKIve not got my father, he ran off shortly after I was born, it’s just me and my mom now. Anyway should we get off now,we’ll miss the film oth-erwise?

They then start to drive off and start get going on the route for the cinema to watch the film. The drive to the cinemas is a 20 minute drive and in the car neither characters do much talking.

MARKDo you want to connect your phone up to my car and put your music on.

SYDNEYYes please! What do I DO?

MARKPut you’re bluetooth on and connect to Nissan Connect. Then press aux twice. Then play you’re music.

Sydney then does this. She then puts her music on. She then puts on some heavy rock music which she then sings along too, but Mark has never heard it before. They then listen to this until they get to the cinema.

EXT. CINEMA

They walk to the cinema just as they have parked up.

INT. CINEMA

Mark then grabs Sydney’s hand and holds it until they go to the pay desk. They still continually not to talk to each other at all. They continue to hold hands but look very awkward whilst doing so.

MARKTwo tickets for Female Dracula.

CASHIERYep thats fine. Anything else?

! 4

MARKCould I also have two large cokes and popcorns?

The cashier hands over the two tickets to Sydney and the coke and popcorn to Mark and then go to the cinema screening and the seats.

INT. CINEMA SCREENING

The cinema contains 3 couples. The adverts are already playing whilst they are in the film.

SYDNEY Thank you for paying for me. You really shouldn’t have but thanks.

MARKI know how to spoil my girl. Im happy to give it you baby.

They begin to kiss at the cinema while the advertisements are playing. The cinema only contains 2 other couples, they are also making out, their should be a camera in wide view showing all people in the cinema and what they are doing.

CUT TO

The film is now half way through and we get to a scene where Female Dracula falls in love with a human, which is being played in the background.

MARKWouldn’t you think dating a vampire would be sexy? You’re pretty much vampire just without the blood suck-ing, but to be honest Id prefer you if you did suck blood, Id get the full experience.

Sydney does not respond but looks blankly at the cinema screen and thinks about telling Mark the truth. Sydney continues to watch the screen and the film continues, we have a close up of Sydney’s face.

SYDNEYI am a vampire, Mark!

MARK‘Course you are?

SYDNEY

! 5

Don’t you believe me?

Mark does not respond to Sydney's question. Sydney now stares at Mark and then shows her his teeth, Mark’s reaction is full of fear. He tries to run out of the cinema.

SYDNEY I thought you’d like a vampire girl-friend?

MARKI was only joking, you psycho!

Sydney grabs Mark and pulls his neck towards her and she then bites him and drinks his blood. This will eventually knock him out and she sits him back in his chair and continues to watch the film.
