- FADE IN
- EXT. SKY-SUNRISE
- TYLER AND HALEY soar thousands of feet above a sea, holding hands. They snuggle so tightly they look like one giant person with two parachute packs. Thy are wearing bulky masks inlaid with dark lenses and a breather. A wire runs out of the masks to their collars.
- TYLER
- Great idea, these masks. Doesn't hinder the beauty and we can actually hear each other.
- HALEY
- I know, isn't it beautiful? It's like the first time every time.
- TYLER
- Every time I wake up in the morning and I see you, it's like the first time.
- HALEY
- No, that's just your pain meds.
- HALEY smiles through the mask and they embrace each other tighter, if that's possible. Tyler lifts his swiveling mouth piece and hers, and he kisses her softly.
- HALEY
- Well we have about forty seconds before touch down, any lasts words?
- Tyler and Haley begin spinning out of control. A moment later they straighten themselves. They seem to hover over a tiny island surround by the crystal green ocean.
- TYLER
- Last words?
- Haley embraces him again, staring into his eyes.
- HALEY
- I didn't pack a 'chute for you.
- Tyler's eyes glaze over. He doesn't speak.
- HALEY
- I'm just giving you what you wanted. You were too scared. The tumor.
- TYLER
- Thanks for euthanizing me. I love you. Don't ever forget how much I love you. I wish I could kiss your heart.
- Haley opens her swivel mouth piece and kisses Tyler again. Tyler pushes her away.
- TYLER
- Hurry! Let me go! You don't have any time! Pull it!
- HALEY
- I didn't pack one either, babe.
- Haley smiles, not taking her eyes from Tyler's. Tyler loosens up, and kisses her. They embrace only a hundred feet over the tiny island. Her shoot opens.
- FADE OUT
