The scene opens up inside of a Cadillac Escalade in the darkened parking lot of a Starbucks. 'Won't Get Fooled Again' by The Who can be heard playing lightly in the background. Joe, who is sitting in the front seat, has his arm around Maria, and she is slowly falling asleep. Scotty, Rob and Amber are all sitting in the back seat. Amber and Scotty are lightly talking while Rob is screwing around with his phone. Joe finally breaks the silence.
Joe Everyman: See guys...this is what I love. Hanging out with you guys before the biggest match of my entire career...life couldn't get any sweetier.
Rob Callaway: Except you really should be resting up.
Joe Everyman: Why is that?
Rob Callaway: Because it's one in the morning.
Joe jumps in shock for a second, waking up Maria.
Joe Everyman: One?! Oh damn...well...eh, screw it. I'm not tired. I'll just stay up. I couldn't fall asleep tonight if I tried to.
Maria Williams: But you still need to get some rest.
Joe Everyman: Yeah, just so you can fall asleep on me again.
Maria Williams: Is it my fault you're so comfortable?
Rob starts laughing.
Maria Williams: What?
Rob Callaway: The caffiene is kicking in...I'm getting delusional.
Joe Everyman: This can't end well.
Rob Callaway: Not in the slightest. When I get like this, I just start rambling on about really random stuff, like, the last time this happened to me. It was that one night in Portland a few weeks back. I was really out of it and I thought I heard Scotty and Amber kiss...
Amber quickly whips her arm across, covering Rob's mouth.
Joe Everyman: What was that?
Amber Williams: Nothing!
Maria Williams: What did you guys do Amber?
Amber Williams: We did nothing! What's with the third degree?
Joe looks at Scotty who is pretending he is asleep. Joe just gets a smile on his face.
Rob Callaway: Because it just seemed like you two were talking, but I could have just been dreaming.
Amber Williams: You must have just been dreaming...of course you were dreaming.
Rob Callaway: Yeah, I guess I was...oh well, no harm no foul I guess.
Joe Everyman: Guess so. So, what should we do now? It's one in the morning, we're basically lost in Phoenix.
Maria Williams: We should go find a park or something.
Scotty Callaway: Yeah, I'd be up for that.
Rob Callaway: I thought you were asleep.
Scotty Callaway: I...am...you're just dreaming again.
Rob Callaway: Oh...makes sense.
Joe and Maria just look confused. Scotty shrugs as Joe starts driving the car off. After a few minutes, the gang finds a park remotely near the Starbucks. They pull into a parking spot and Joe turns off the lights. Rob is dead asleep on the window, so the other quietly sneak out. Joe goes into the back and grabs a bag of stuff. The others head over near a bench. Joe drops the bag on the ground and opens it up. He pulls out a big blanket and lays it down. He also pulls out a boombox and pops in a cd. He hits random and it played 'Hotel California' by the Eagles first. Joe and Maria lay down on the blanket and stare up into the full moon and all of the stars. Scotty sits down on the bench and Amber sits down next to him. Amber grabs Scotty's arm and puts it around her shoulders.
Amber Williams: Sorry...I'm cold.
Scotty just smiles.
Scotty Callaway: So Joe...are you ganna be ready for tomorrow?
Joe Everyman: I think I am. I mean, there isn't much I can do to prepare for this match. I'm just going to take it as it comes. If I enter first, I'll try my damnedest to win. If I enter later, I'll pray the match doesn't end quickly. I know that somehow...someway, I'll be able to pull this match off. But if I can't win, oh well. I'm the nCw National Champion, which is an amazing feat.
Maria Williams: Oh well? That's not the Joe I know.
Joe Everyman: I know...I'm still kind of out of it tonight.
Maria Williams: Oh, I'm sorry hun.
Joe Everyman: It's fine...maybe I should just try to get some rest.
Maria Williams: I'll join you.
Joe lays his head back and Maria puts her arms around him. The two slowly fall asleep. Scotty and Amber stay up until the sun rises. Scotty and Amber had been talking all morning until the light had finally broken the horizon. Scotty and Amber were holding hands when Joe and Maria finally woke up. Maria and Joe notice how they are.
Maria Williams: See Joe, I told you.
Joe Everyman: Yeah yeah, I can tell.
Scotty Callaway: Huh?
Joe Everyman: We knew you two were dating again. We didn't want to say anything because of Rob.
Scotty Callaway: Oh yeah, thanks for that.
Joe Everyman: Well, we need to get going. We all have a big day ahead of us.
Maria Williams: And even bigger for you.
Joe Everyman: Yeah...but I'm sure I'll do fine. It's ganna be a tough match, but I'll be fine.
Maria Williams: Yeah, and you're the National Champion, that's saying something.
Joe Everyman: True.
Joe and Maria pack up the stuff and carries it to the car. Scotty helps Joe put it into the back. As Joe and Maria walk around the side of the car, Scotty grabs Joe's arm.
Scotty Callaway: Dude...I'm ganna do it.
Joe Everyman: Do what?
Maria Williams: Oh...my god...Scott, are you serious?
Scotty Callaway: Oh yeah...I'm doing it.
Maria Williams: But...
Scotty Callaway: No buts...it's time.
Joe Everyman: Do what?!
Just then, Amber turns around the corner of the vehicle. Scotty turns around to face her, and Joe and Maria stand back. Maria gets a big smile on her face.
Scotty Callaway: Amber...you know I love you right?
Amber Williams: Of course, and I love you too.
Scotty Callaway: Then now...five thirty am in the parking lot of an Arizona park will be the best time...
Scotty slowly lowers himself to one knee.
Scotty Callaway: Miss Amber Nicole Williams...will you marry me?
Joe Everyman: ...holy s**t...
Amber blushes and stares right in Scotty's eyes.
Amber Williams: ...yes!
Scotty quickly gets up and hugs and kisses Amber.
Maria Williams: I knew it!
Joe Everyman: ...holy s**t! How the hell do you expect me to be able to consintrate tonight now?!
Maria hits Joe in the back of the knee.
Maria Williams: Don't ruin in the moment!
Joe just hangs him head down...as Rob turns the corner.
Rob Callaway: Way to go man.
Scotty Callaway: Holy crap! Rob!
Rob Callaway: Hey man, it's fine. I knew you were going to do it...I just had a feeling. I'm overjoyed. I better be your damn best man though.
Scotty Callaway: Oh yeah, no problem.
Joe Everyman: Now...can we please get going?
Scotty Callaway: Yeah...I finally got to do that.
Joe Everyman: Ok, good.
All of them get back into the Escalade as the camera pans up towards the orange and almost purple sunrise as the scene fades out.
(OOC: Yeah...I know it's my only rp for a PPV match, a big damn PPV match at that, but I couldn't think straight, so I just did this. Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did writing it. Also, thanks Ace for giving me this idea)
