The following is a rp that I wrote halfway right after the results were posted…they are fiction…then the rest I wrote is true and I need to speak out to let off some kind of steam.  Sorry for the OOC post in a rp.

 


 

No body famous…just me…it’s better to have loved and lost than never have loved before…try it.

 

-David Dunn (2/12/03)

 


 

***The scene opens on a pitch-black dark night somewhere in Weslaco Texas.  The only light seen is that of streetlights and signal lights.  A cool breeze sweeps through the town blowing palm tree to the side a bit.  It's a night almost out of a horror film.  You know the kind.  Its cool, dark, hardly any lights, then, bang!  Some nut job in a hockey mask kills some cute little girl.  Only...that's in movies...this is real life.***

 

***FLASH***

 

***The scene moves down an alley where we see smoke rising from some old pipes.  Only the beginning part of the alley is noticeable because of the smoke.  Suddenly a noise is heard echoing off the alley walls.  It almost sounded like a tin can or something metal being kicked or maybe even falling to the ground.***

 

***FLASH***

 

***The scene moves closer to the where the smoke begins.  Slowly it moves closer and closer until suddenly it starts to go through the smoke.  The noise is heard again now.  This time closer than before as if it was moving towards the end of the alley.  A tin can flies out of nowhere.  It flies out of the smoke, the alley as well, and on to the street.***

 

***FLASH***

 

***The scene moves out of the smoke and closer to the end of the alley when a person walks out of the smoke.  The smoke rises over his body then slowly floating up into the sky.  We can see that the person is a man wearing a black over coat with black boots, a black button shirt, and black slacks. As the man walks out of alley we catch a glimpse of his face.  His facile expression is horrendous.  The gentleman looks very angry and maybe a little disappointed to boot.  The man slowly exits the alley and on to the street.***

 

***FLASH***

 

***The scene moves down a bit down the street to see the man slowly making his way to where a red-light is located at.  The man shakes his head side to side as if something shocked him.  Closer the man gets to the red light.  We watch him for a while.  The way he walks, dresses, and acts.  As we focus on his face we finally realize that the man is none of that the Goddamn Fucking Franchise, David Dunn.***

 

DUNN:  Strick Carrington…

 

***With each passing step David seems become more upset than we first saw.  Suddenly David stops right in the middle of the street.  His head looking down at the ground.  His eyes, now closed for some reason or another.***

 

DUNN:  Strick I told you I’d be back.  I told you that when I came back I was going to make you pay for what you’ve did to me.  I think I proved that too you Strick.  Chair shot after chair shot I watched to hang in pain.  You see I could have set you on fire and ended your life like you tried to do to me.  But I don’t want to end it quick.  I want to prolong it for days, weeks, months if need be. 

 

***David lifts his head for a second...his face is all red...his eyes, bloodshot.  The scene moves down his body to notice his hands are now rolled up into fist...they are both shaking lightly so it's sure to assume that there rolled up tight as if he was ready to hit someone or something.***

 

DUNN:  I’ll never forgive you Strick, I never forgive you for trying to fire me up like a fourth of July barbeque. I hate you Strick I hate you with a passion.  More than even The Dope Show. 

 

***His fist slowly unroll themselves.  David seemingly is trying to relax.***

 

DUNN:  You know I don’t like him, I never liked him.  Our wars made the WEW legendary.  Of course it doesn’t matter any more, Till isn’t my enemy any more, you are.  He came to me you see, he told me that he could help.  He told me that he hated your ass almost as much as he hated me.  You’d be surprised what a few beers can do to help two people settle some of there differences. 

 

***David lifts his head up once again.  As before he starts to walk towards the ref light.***

 

DUNN:  For you Strick, there’s not enough beers in the world that settle our differences.  I’ve beaten once, Shaw’s going to beat you next, then, then Till’s going to get a piece of your ass.  Fuck my match this week, I don’t care about Stone or Hawk.  There nothing to me but sad pieces of shit that happen to get SWF contracts.  So fuck’em.  I’m not showing up to Adrenaline for a win in some stupid tag match…I’m showing up to hurt you Strick.

 

***With a few movements of his arms David slips off his coat and throws it over his shoulder.  David still is walking to the red light down the street.***

 

DUNN:  The funny thing is…you know I’m coming for you.  Your betting on it.  I’m glad.  It’s makes it so much fun when you know I’m coming after you.

 

***David reaches the red light.  He stops directly under it.  He looks up at the light change from red to green.  A smile forms on David’s face.  David looks down and continues on his way down the street.***

 

***FLASH***

 

***The scene reopens at David’s friend’s house, Chad Longoria.  The scene moves inside to see David and Chad talking over a couple of beers in the living room.***

 

CHAD:  …so you know what happened then right?

 

DUNN:  Yeah and really don’t care.  Let’s just drop it okay. 

 

CHAD:  Yeah.  No more info needed.  HA, HA, HA!!!

 

DUNN:  No shit.

 

CHAD:  So how’s Jeannette doing?

 

DUNN:  Wouldn’t know.  I’ve been trying to call her for like almost a week now. 

 

CHAD:  No answer at home?

 

DUNN:  Nah.  I guess she’s pissed off at me or something.  Shit lately I’ve even been thinking she’s been cheating on me.

 

CHAD:  Dude she loves you man.  There’s no way in hell she would cheat on you.  She loves you too much man.  Hell I should know.  I’m the one who introduced you two.

 

***Chad gets up from the couch.***

 

CHAD:  You know you should try her mothers house.  She could have gone over there to see her mother.  Any ways, you want another beer?

 

***David looks at his beer.***

 

DUNN:  Yeah sure.

 

***Chad goes into the kitchen.***

 

DUNN:  Fuck it.

 

***David pulls his cell phone out of his jacket pocket and dials Jeannette’s mothers house.  Ring after ring no one picks up.  Finally after about twenty rings Jeannette’s mother answers.***

 

MOM:  Hello?

 

DUNN:  Hi this is David.  Is Jeannette there?

 

MOM:  Well, I, hold on…

 

***David shakes his head for a second.***

 

DUNN:  What the fuck?

 

***Someone picks up the phone again.***

 

AUNT:  Hello, David?

 

DUNN:  Yeah?

 

AUNT:  This is Jeannette’s aunt.

 

DUNN:  Hi, what the hell is going on?

 

AUNT:  Look, Jeannette isn’t here.

 

DUNN:  Where is she?

 

AUNT:  She got sick.

 

DUNN:  What do you mean she got sick?!  What the hell is going on here?!

 

AUNT:  It’s…well…where are you?

 

DUNN:  I’m at my friend Chad’s right now.

 

AUNT:  Could you come by here?

 

DUNN:  Why?  What’s going on?

 

AUNT:  Just come over.  We need to talk.

 

DUNN:  Fine…I’ll be right over.

 

***David hangs up the phone and a very sadden worried look forms on David’s face.  He opens his phone and dials a number.***

 

DUNN:  Shit…

 

***The screen on his phone reads Knapp Medical center.***

 

KNAPP PERSON:  Knapp Medical Center.

 

DUNN:  Yeah, has a woman by the name of Jeannette Ipina-Dunn been checked in as of late?

 

KP:  Let me check sir…

 

***Sweat starts to slowly drip from David’s face as he waits for a response.***

KP:  Hello sir?

 

DUNN:  Yes.

 

KP:  I’m sorry sir we don’t have any one by that name.

 

DUNN:  Um, thanks.

 

***David hangs up the phone and starts to rock back and forth right as Chad enters the room with two beers and a bowl of popcorn.  Chad looks at David for a second then puts down what he’s carrying.***

 

CHAD:  You okay man?

 

DUNN:  Nah man.  I’ve far from alright.  Something happened with Jeannette. 

 

CHAD:  What?  What happened?

 

DUNN:  I don’t know man.  I called her mom’s house and her mother couldn’t tell me shit.  Then her aunt got on the phone and told me she wasn’t there.  I pushed her…she said she was sick…can you give me a ride over there man.  Her aunt said she needed to talk to me.

 

CHAD:  No problem man.  I’ll grab my keys.

 

***Chad runs off to the next room to get his keys.***

 

***FLASH*** 

 

***The scene reopens with Chad pulling his truck up at the Ipina family home.  David jumps out of the truck and runs to the front door.  Before David can even knock Jeannette’s mom walks out.***

 

DUNN:  What the hell is going on?

 

MOM:  Hold on.

 

***Jeannette’s mom goes inside the house and grabs the home phone.  She calls someone over the phone while David starts pacing outside.  Jeannette’s mom finishes her call them walks out.***

 

DUNN:  So what the hell is going on?

 

MOM:  Just hold on okay.

 

DUNN:  Where the hell is Jeannette?!

 

MOM:  Please just hold on.

 

DUNN:  Goddamn it!

 

***David begins to pace once again.***

 

***FLASH***

***The scene reopens with a car pulling up to the Ipina home.  A woman gets out and walks up next to David.***

 

AUNT:  Hello.  I’m Jeannette’s aunt.  Her mother’s sister.

 

DUNN:  Hi…what the hell is going on?

 

AUNT:  Her mother didn’t know how to tell you this but…Wednesday night Jeannette hand a break down.

 

DUNN:  What?!  Where the hell is she?

 

AUNT:  She broke down and told her mother all the problems she has been having.  So on Thursday they checked her into the hospital.  They didn’t know how to tell you it.  So, I agreed to break the news to you.

 

DUNN:  Okay, where the hell is she.  I called Knapp, she isn’t there.  So what the fuck?!

 

AUNT:  Before she left she gave her mother the ring you gave her, and left Mary with me.  She said she didn’t want to be with you any more.

 

***Jeannette’s mom hands David the ring he gave Jeannette.***

 

DUNN:  I…I…don’t get this.  This isn’t right.  What the fuck!

 

AUNT:  Her father went to pick her up Sunday.  She wasn’t better but they gave her some medicine to help her out.

 

DUNN:  So where the hell is she then?!

 

AUNT:  Sunday night she overdosed on the medicine they gave her from the hospital.  I’m sorry…

 

DUNN:  Your sorry?  Your fucking sorry!  Why the hell wasn’t I called right when all this shit began?!  Huh?!  Why the hell wasn’t I told?

 

AUNT:  She said she didn’t want any part of you.

 

DUNN:  Bullshit!  Your full of shit!  Her whole family has always hated my ass.  I’ve treated her better than any of you assholes.  Any of you.  I loved her with every bone in my body.  She loved me with everything she had.  So don’t tell me that she didn’t want any part of me.  Don’t tell me that you stupid bitch.

 

AUNT:  Look I know your upset…

 

DUNN:  UPSET!  You bet your ass I’m upset.  You just told me in the nicest fucking way you could that Jeannette didn’t want to see me any more then killed herself.  I can’t believe you assholes…I…

 

***David starts to lose it.***

 

DUNN:  …I…I can’t be here right now…

 

***David starts to head for the truck.***

 

DUNN:  I’ll have Wilson pick up Mary later tonight.  Chad let’s get out of here.

 

***David climbs in the truck.  Chad follows.  The truck starts and drives down the street.  David looks outside the window as Chad leans over and places his hand on David’s shoulder.  His eye water…his face turns red…memories of his girl run through his head repeatedly…finally in a moment of pain David screams out.***

 

DUNN:  GODDDDDDDAMNIT NOOOOO!!!!!!

 

***Tears now round down David’s eyes as he cries over the pain that fills inside him.***

 

***FLASH***

 

***The scene reopens with David standing outside in the rain with a blank look on his face.  The rain falls heavy and covers David but you can still see tears running down his face.  No emotion…only a blank look of someone who has lost everything…and gained nothing.***

 

DUNN:  I still remember the first time I met you.  Chad and I were driving around town with a cooler filled with beer.  He called up your cousin Elsa.  He asked if it were would be cool to drink out at her place.  I saw you there.  So shy, so innocent, so alive.  I knew at that moment that I had to be with you.  When I was with you, I knew you were someone I had to marry.  When we were married, I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you…only…only it didn’t work out that way.  God I miss you.  I miss you every passing moment of every passing day.  I miss your smile…your laugh…the way you could just put your arms around me and everything in the world didn’t seem so bad.  Now my world has been shattered.  I find myself waking up every morning screaming your name…wishing you were here with me.  I wasn’t the best guy in the world, I had lots of problems…but you were always there for me.  You didn’t judge me for the way I acted…only the way I was inside.  I may never be able to find that again…if I looked a hundred life times…I would never be able to find someone like you.

 

My only regret is the last time I saw you…coming home from with movies with Chad.  He mistakenly scared you…I thought it was so funny…I had to scare you just for a laugh.  I dropped you off and said I’d talk to you later…funny that was the last thing I can remember…me scaring you…it may seem petty to most people but to me it speaks levels.  Now I stand alone once again.  Alone in a world that destroys a piece of you with every breath you take.  I will always love you Jeannette.  No matter what people say, I know you loved me too. 

 

Jeannette if your looking down on me, please give me some kind of fucking answer to why you did this.  I’ve been thinking about it for a while and I still can’t figure it out.  Why Jeannette…why couldn’t you just talk to me?  I’ve always been there before for you.  Why couldn’t you just pick up the phone and call me…this is a thought that keeps running through my mind.  I may never know the answer…but at least I know you found a peace that it seems I could never give you.  Jeannette you will always be in my heart…and…my soul.  I love you…goodbye…

 

***The scene fades to black.***
