186. Beach Bums - Leslie
- FADE IN:
- JILLIAN jog across the sand, taking the sunrise in.
- Her toned legs extend from her capri cargo pants, her bikini top shows off well-developed abs.
- She slows as she sees ADAM standing behind his easel.
- She walks towards him.
- JILLIAN
- Morning.
- Adam looks up from his painting and smiles.
- ADAM
- Hey, I'm Adam.
- JILLIAN
- Jillian.
- ADAM
- Jillian eh? Not Jill, Jilly, Lian?
- JILLIAN
- Jillian.
- ADAM
- Cool.
- JILLIAN
- So I've been jogging here for months - haven't seen you before.
- ADAM
- Just moved to town.
- JILLIAN
- So why here so early? I'm here because I hate the beach at any other time.
- ADAM
- When there's no one except you and the sand.
- JILLIAN
- Exactly, I guess I love the beach, just hate the crowds and the stupid things people do when they're at the beach. The only way to appreciate it is right now - solitude.
- ADAM
- Agreed. See that house there?
- He points to a house tucked into a row of beach condos.
- It's an older house with a large porch and bay windows staring out into the ocean.
- Jillian nods.
- ADAM
- That's my dream house and that's why I hate the beach.
- JILLIAN
- It's a beautiful house. I love it too. Let me see...it makes you upset because it's so crowded in with all that crap.
- She waves at the condos.
- JILLIAN
- It needs to stand by itself on a bluff. But not too far from neighbors, good neighbors - a three minute walk from good neighbors; neighbors you had over to watch the ocean and drink tea and converse.
- Adam smiles and turns the canvas towards her.
- The painting shows the house standing by itself on a cliff high above the ocean.
- JILLIAN
- I like you.
- Several cars pull up and beach-goers spill out onto the sand.
- JILLIAN
- Looks like my...our peace is about to be disrupted. I have to finish my run. Same time tomorrow?
- Adam shrugs.
- ADAM
- Maybe.
- JILLIAN
- Oh, you know you will be.
- He winks at her and she jogs away, laughing.
- FADE TO BLACK.
