The Best Man Page #2
You read my book?
No.
How did you get
ahold of my book?
I don't have your book,
Harper. Jordan does.
Jordan has my book?
All right, camera two, I need
a close-up on Dr. Gayle.
Zoom in slowly, slowly.
All right, great.
Hold it right there.
Camera one, stand by
for audience reaction.
Give me audience reaction,
camera one.
Jordan Armstrong.
She's already running
things, ain't she?
You should not be surprised.
She's the only one
more driven than you are.
That's all right.
When's the last time
you saw Jordan?
Oh, last March,
actually.
We didn't really
have much time to hang,
though, 'cause
she had a deadline.
And I had to move...
What, n*gger?
You, my brother,
are withholding information.
Here we go.
You and Jordan got busy
in undergrad, didn't you?
No, we didn't.
What about the book? What about the book?
Jackson and Kendall.
That's you two.
I know it!
They picked the prime opportunity
to make grass sandwiches.
"A passionate night
of lovemaking so intense..."
I know my words.
Embellishment sells books.
Oh, so,
then what really happened?
Nothing.
You are lying!
I know it.
Out with it.
What?
Tell me. Tell me.
Nothing.
All right, it was
senior year during finals.
The year-end issue was
off to the printer
and the staff had left
for the night.
We both had studying to do,
but we were mad tired.
gonna help us that night.
Doo-doo-doo-do
Mmm-mmm
Doo-doo-doo-do
Mmm-mmm
As around the sun the earth
knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know
Just as hate knows love's the cure,
you can rest your mind assured
That I'll be loving you always
Until the rainbow burns
the stars down in the sky
Always Until the ocean
Always
Until the dolphin flies
and parrots live at sea
Always
Until we dream of life
and life becomes a dream
Did you know that true love
asks for nothin'
Her acceptance
Is the way we pay
Did you know that life
has given love a guarantee
To last through forever
and another day
Just as time knew to move on
since the beginning
And the seasons know exactly
when to change
Just as kindness knows no shame,
know through all your joy and pain
That I'll be loving you always
As today I know I'm living
but tomorrow...
And you didn't tell any of us?
There really wasn't
much to tell, really.
And, you know,
you can't keep a secret.
What? What do you mean
I can't keep a secret?
Were you supposed to tell me
that you had my book? Or...
Just finish the story.
Until the earth just
for the sun denies itself
I'll be loving you forever
Until dear mother nature
says her work is through
Until the day that you are me
