INTERIOR - SCHOOL LOCKERS - DAY

LUKE, a (teen dressed in jeans, band t-shirt overshirt and hoodie, long hair and a pair of skate shoes) metalhead is stood at some beaten up lockers, looking in one, when ALICE, a (teen dressed in all black, skinny jeans, black tshirt, black hoodie and with a black bag, along with thick black eye make up) emo appears next to him. Luke looks into his locker, with a fond smile on his face. Inside his locker there is a few books and a folder and a few posters. He is looking at one specifically. Then Alice walks up to her locker. She quickly opens the door and rummages through it. While she is rummaging, Luke notices the posters in her locker, showing off metal bands, similar in style to his own. He starts to scrutinise her slowly. LUKE'S POV Alice's hair covers most of her face. Her bright eyes shine through the gaps in her hair. A small perfectly formed nose. (Through the gaps in her hair.) A smile. (Through the gaps in her hair.) Alice (quickly) shuts her locker and walks off. INTERIOR - SIXTH FORM CENTRE - DAY Luke is sitting at a computer screen, tapping lifelessly at the keyboard, watching text appear on the screen. He hits print and moves across the room. On his way he notices a group of teens, (societies socially accepted norms, haircuts that follow the latest trend, same style of clothing, same overall look, sheep in the herd) sitting on the sickly bright green sofas. As Luke passes, the group start to point and whisper inaudibly. Luke is standing by the printer paying them no attention.

GROUP MEMBER ONE sits back in his chair. GROUP MEMBER ONE (Smugly) 'Oi! you fucking pussy, shouldn't you be at a hair and beauty course, not here?!' The rest of the group burst in to laughter, with the occasional insults. GROUP MEMBER TWO 'Haha he looks like an ugly girl!' GROUP MEMBER THREE 'Where are your boobs, woman? Late bloomer?' GROUP MEMBER FOUR 'Proof he has a pussy!' Luke just shakes his head and strides back to his seat. The group die down and return to their previous chat. Alice then enters the room a few seconds later. She still has her hair down, so it still covers her face. She has headphones in and is incoherently muttering to herself under her breath. The group look round and notice her, and instantly crack up in to laughter. Youth #1, then grabs a sandwich that is sitting next to him and throws it straight at Alice's face. Alice shuffles across the room, her short strides carrying her to her seat by a computer in the corner of the room. She sits down at speed, placing her bags gently on the table.

The group move slowly around the computers near Alice, continuing with the abuse, with any object near them paired with verbal abuse. Luke goes to stand but hesitates. FLASHBACK SEQUENCE - INTERIOR - TOILET - DAY LUKE Please! Don't! GROUP MEMBER ONE Too Late! Group Member One flushes the toilet, whilst Luke's head is in and laughs, whilst the rest of the group join in on the laughter. INTERIOR - SIXTH FORM CENTRE - DAY Luke pulls out his phone from his pocket, his fingers move furiously across the keyboard, whilst looking up and down at Alice and the Group. Then he suddenly pockets the phone. Luke gets up out of his seat, moves across the room, pushes past the group members, grabs Alice by the arm and leads her out of the room silently. The group follow them jeering recycled insults. EXTERIOR - PIAZZA - DAY Luke and Alice stop to face the group, who stop, leaving a gap between them. The insults stop and it becomes silent. Luke pulls his phone out of his pocket, presses a large button and holds the camera up at eye level. The group stare for a second, when out of the bushes and from behind walls jump loads of people, all with food in hand. The group start looking around, realising they have been boxed in. LUKE 'Go.'

The collection of people throw the food at the group. Alice and Luke watch silently. Alice moves her hand to hold Luke's and he grips back tightly.
