Scene 7
Scene 7: [Shelby in an elegant blue dress, pavilion covered in flowers and candlelight, under the stars]
Mom
Shelby calm down, I'm sure he'll be here soon. He promised, as it is he already spent yesterday with Clementine, and now she's off on a plane. Just settle down, Myles is waiting for me. See you later my dear, and don't fret, he'll say yes.
[they hug and mom leaves, Shelby paces for a while until Arthur appears in a half suit coming through the garden gate]
Arthur
Stunning
Shelby
I spent all day decorating, I hoped you'd like it.
Arthur
The scenery is amazing, but I was talking about you.
[Arthur wraps his arms around Shelby's waist and they kiss]
Shelby
I'm sorry everything has been so hectic,
Arthur
There's nothing you could've done to stop any of that from happening. You were with them, that's what matters most.
Shelby
And I know they won't like me to hold off my life, so before floods of mourners keep telling me to move on, I'm taking the first step.
I know we've been interrupted and there's been two prior attempts, but they do say third time's a charm.
[shelby gets down on her knees]
I'm sorry for running from you both times, but I want to be with you. Will you marry me?
[awkward pause]
Arthur
Only if you dance with me like we did the night we met.
[pulls out his phone and starts playing music]
[they dance under the stars for hours, not talking just dancing and laughing. Shelby with her feet on Arthur's]
