💍 CAMERON PROPOSES TO BROOKE — LARRY WALKS IN 😱

🎬 SCENE 1 — BROOKE’S HOUSE — LIVING ROOM — EVENING

The house is quiet.

The warm evening sunlight shines through the windows.

Brooke sits on the couch, scrolling through her phone.

She looks tired and emotionally drained.

Suddenly, there is a knock at the door.

Brooke looks up.

She slowly gets to her feet and walks toward the door.

She opens it.

Cameron is standing outside.

He looks nervous.

Brooke is surprised to see him.

BROOKE

Cameron? What are you doing here?

CAMERON

Can I come in?

Brooke steps aside.

BROOKE

Yeah. Come in.

Cameron walks inside.

Brooke closes the door behind him.

For a moment, neither of them says anything.

Cameron looks around the room before turning his attention back to Brooke.

There is something serious in his expression.

Brooke notices.

BROOKE

Okay… why are you looking at me like that?

Cameron takes a deep breath.

CAMERON

Because there’s something I need to tell you.

Brooke sits down.

Cameron remains standing for a moment before finally sitting across from her.

❤️ SCENE 2 — CAMERON OPENS HIS HEART

Cameron looks directly into Brooke’s eyes.

His nervousness becomes obvious.

CAMERON

Brooke, I really like you.

Brooke freezes.

She wasn’t expecting that.

CAMERON

I’ve been wanting to tell you for a while, but I didn’t know how.

Brooke looks away.

She takes a slow breath.

BROOKE

Cameron…

CAMERON

Just let me finish.

Brooke looks back at him.

CAMERON

I know you’ve been through a lot. I know you don’t trust people easily anymore.

He pauses.

CAMERON

But I’m not trying to pressure you. I just want you to know how I feel.

Brooke’s expression softens.

But she still looks uncertain.

BROOKE

Cameron, I’m sorry.

Cameron’s smile disappears.

BROOKE

I don’t feel the same way.

Cameron looks down.

The words clearly hurt him.

But he doesn’t get angry.

He simply nods.

CAMERON

Okay.

Brooke watches him carefully.

CAMERON

I respect that.

He stands up.

Brooke looks surprised.

BROOKE

You’re leaving?

CAMERON

I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable.

Brooke remains silent.

Cameron takes a step toward the door.

Then he stops.

He turns around one more time.

CAMERON

But I’m not going to pretend I don’t care about you.

Brooke looks at him.

CAMERON

I do.

💕 SCENE 3 — CAMERON REFUSES TO GIVE UP

Cameron walks back toward Brooke.

He keeps a respectful distance.

CAMERON

I’m not asking you to forget everything you’ve been through.

CAMERON

I’m just asking you to give me a chance to show you who I am.

Brooke looks conflicted.

BROOKE

Cameron, I don’t know if I’m ready for another relationship.

CAMERON

Then don’t call it a relationship.

Brooke looks confused.

CAMERON

Let me just be there for you.

Brooke’s eyes begin to water.

She looks down at her hands.

BROOKE

Why are you trying so hard?

CAMERON

Because you’re worth it.

Brooke looks at him.

The words hit her emotionally.

For several seconds, the room is completely silent.

Finally, Brooke looks up.

BROOKE

Maybe…

Cameron waits.

BROOKE

Maybe I can give you a chance.

Cameron’s face immediately lights up.

CAMERON

Really?

Brooke gives him a small smile.

BROOKE

Yeah.

💍 SCENE 4 — THE PROPOSAL

Cameron suddenly reaches into his pocket.

Brooke notices.

BROOKE

What’s that?

Cameron smiles.

He slowly gets down on one knee.

Brooke’s eyes widen.

BROOKE

Cameron…

Cameron looks up at her.

CAMERON

Brooke, I know this might be unexpected.

Brooke covers her mouth.

CAMERON

But I don’t want to waste another moment pretending I don’t know what I want.

He reaches out his hand.

💖 CAMERON

I want you.

Brooke’s eyes fill with tears.

CAMERON

I want to be there for you. I want to support you. And I want to build something real with you.

Brooke looks completely overwhelmed.

💍 CAMERON

Brooke, will you be with me?

Brooke looks down at him.

She doesn’t answer immediately.

Cameron waits patiently.

❤️ BROOKE

Yes.

Cameron’s face lights up.

He stands and gently hugs her.

Brooke hugs him back.

For a moment, everything feels perfect.

But neither of them realizes someone is about to walk through the door.

😱 SCENE 5 — LARRY ARRIVES

The front door suddenly opens.

Brooke and Cameron immediately separate.

Larry walks inside.

He looks completely normal at first.

LARRY

Brooke?

Brooke turns around.

Her face changes instantly.

BROOKE

Larry?

Larry takes a few steps forward.

Then he sees Cameron.

He stops.

His eyes move from Cameron to Brooke.

Then he notices where Cameron is standing.

Larry’s expression changes.

LARRY

What… is going on?

Brooke doesn’t know what to say.

Cameron stands silently.

Larry looks at him.

Then he looks back at Brooke.

LARRY

Wait a minute.

Larry takes another step forward.

His eyes widen when he realizes what he just walked in on.

😱 LARRY

Were you just proposing to Brooke?

Cameron doesn’t answer immediately.

Larry’s jaw drops.

LARRY: WHAT?! 😱

Brooke takes a nervous breath.

BROOKE

Larry, please—

LARRY

No!

Larry raises his hand.

LARRY

Don’t tell me to calm down.

He looks at Cameron.

LARRY

You came here to propose to Brooke?

Cameron remains calm.

CAMERON

Yes.

Larry looks completely stunned.

LARRY

You actually proposed to her?

CAMERON

I did.

Larry turns toward Brooke.

LARRY

And you said yes?

Brooke looks uncomfortable.

She slowly nods.

Larry steps backward.

He looks like he cannot believe what he is hearing.

⚡ SCENE 6 — LARRY DEMANDS ANSWERS

Larry runs his hand across his face.

He is visibly shocked.

LARRY

Brooke, when did this happen?

BROOKE

It just happened.

LARRY

Just happened?

Larry laughs in disbelief.

LARRY

I walk through that door and Cameron is down on one knee in front of you!

Brooke tries to explain.

BROOKE

Larry, it’s not what you think.

LARRY

It looks exactly like what I think!

Cameron steps forward.

CAMERON

Larry, I care about Brooke.

Larry looks at him.

LARRY
