[Holmes Chapel, Cheshire, A Park Special to Harry's Heart || November 14, 2014, 5:30 pm, 'Just Larry']

(Late afternoon, the sun begins to set. HARRY sets up a mat and sits alone in a park near his home, the box of cupcakes in his hands, cans of beer on his side. He keeps looking at his watch, begins to message the person he's waiting for, but doesn't reply. Worried, he finally decided to dial his number, phone rings, and waits for him to pick up.)

LOUIS: (picks up, choppy) "Hello?"

HARRY: (relieved) "Louis. I ... um, where are you?"

LOUIS: "You really miss me, do you?"

HARRY: (smiles) "Well ... yeah. So?"

LOUIS: "That's cute. Why'd you call?"

HARRY: "What? You know why I'm calling you."

LOUIS: "Uh, nope. Don't know a single thing."

HARRY: (rolls his eyes) "Lou, cut the chase, man. Are you lost or something?"

LOUIS: "I ... uh, I think ... I am." (laughs) "I have no idea when I lost my sense of direction."

HARRY: (shakes his head) "You idiot. Want me to pick you up there?"

LOUIS: "Well ... I ..." (static sounds)

HARRY: (worried) "Louis?"

LOUIS: "Hey, I-I can't hear you. Harry?"

HARRY: "Lou, the line's acting crazy. You still there?"

LOUIS: (in between occasional static sounds) "Yeah. I can hear you a bit."

HARRY: "I really think I should pick you up. Where are you?"

LOUIS: "Um, Harry, I think I'm in trouble ... help ..."

HARRY: (agitated) "What? What happened, mate?" (static sounds intensify, shouts softly) "Lou!"

(no response, phone line gets cut off)

HARRY: "Damn it!"

(HARRY dials and tries to call again. No response.)

HARRY: (whispers) "Goddamn it, Louis, what happened?"

(Moments passed, until someone covers HARRY'S eyes)

HARRY: (surprised, quickly removes the hands and looks back) "Louis!"

LOUIS: (smiles) "Miss me?"

HARRY: "W-what happened to you? I thought you got in an accident or something."

LOUIS: (sits beside HARRY) "Well, I saw and heard everything." (snickers) "You all being panicked and worried about me."
