The Last Kiss Page #5

Synopsis: Michael and Jenna, having been a couple for three years, want to get married and start a family. These plans seem to be well on their way when Jenna announces that she's pregnant. But Michael is worried that his life and his youth will be over for good. At a wedding of a friend, he meets a free-spirited college co-ed, Kim, who opens his eyes and leads him on a dangerous path away from Jenna. Meanwhile, none of the relationships of the people surrounding Michael and Jenna are happy and stable. Michael's friend Izzy is unwilling to let go of his childhood sweetheart Arianna; Kenny is a handsome stud who fears commitment to his latest conquest Danielle; and Chris is a co-worker who is dominated by his neurotic and overbearing wife over raising their newborn son. Even Jenna's parents, Stephen and Anna, are experiencing problems in their long-suffering marriage.

Okay.

Ari,

I love you forever.

It's me. Open up.

I'm coming!

-You have to come with me.

-Where?

South America.

Okay.

I need a wingman, man.

I can't do this alone.

Yeah, sure. Absolutely.

-Really?

-Yeah.

Hey, you got any ice?

I think I broke my hand.

You're not gonna believe this, Izzy,

but I actually keep ice in the freezer.

You're really coming with me?

No talking!

"During this trimester,

"women have to carefully inspect

the things they're feeling

"because hormonal changes

can make upsets and worries

"seem larger than they are."

Tell me about it.

No, that's my nut.

"In isolation, one's anxieties

become disproportionate.

"Talking things out with your partner

"is a way of exorcising fears

on both sides

"or at least not allowing them

to become overwhelming."

Did you get that?

It says you can't hold everything inside.

Yeah. So what about you?

-What?

-What are you holding inside

you feel like you want to let out?

What?

-What? You asked!

-Oh, my God!

-I've been holding that in all day!

-You're disgusting! Michael!

I don't want your farts on me.

Come on, turn the TV off. I'm serious.

I want to know what you're feeling.

I'm feeling that...

What I'm feeling, me,

is that, in general...

Wow. You are an enormous loser,

you know that?

Well, you're in love with a loser,

and only a loser could love a loser.

-Are you nine?

-Ten.

Okay, fine. I'll go.

I feel like we should buy a house.

You got to be f***ing kidding me.

I'll get it!

-Hi.

-Hi.

What are you doing here?

Kenny's coming with me

to South America.

You're really serious about that?

Hell, yes.

-I should go with you.

-Yeah, right.

Lisa's driving me out of

my f***ing mind. I can't take it anymore.

-Where's Kenny?

-He's...

You just got another promotion

and my parents can help

with the down payment.

I just don't think it's such a good idea.

Why? Their parents did it for them.

And you know,

a monthly mortgage payment

probably isn't that much more

than we're spending on rent.

It's not really about the money, Jenna.

Then what is it?

I wouldn't dare mention the M-word

because I know how any conversation

about that totally freaks you out.

I told you I'd marry you

when you could name three couples

you know personally that have lasted

more than five years.

Yeah, and I still only have my parents

and that cute couple from the pond.

-Ducks don't count.

-They mate for life, come on.

What is it, baby?

What are you afraid of?

I don't know. It just seems so, like,

final.

Final.

Wow. We're about to

become a family, Michael.

I know. I didn't mean it like that.

If you aren't up for this, tell me now,

-because otherwise, what are we doing?
