    Love On Wax (Scene 8)

    As our last scene leaves off
    It leaves Q and Chuck getting settled into their apartment 
    Our scene picks up with Q in the kitchen and Chuck lounging in the living room
    (Q places the last of some groceries and throws some bags into the recycling, he looks up to Chuck and asks)
    "So what we getting into tonight, I know we ain't throwing no party."
    (Chuck turns to him and replies)
    "Huh?"
    (Q continues.)
    "Seriously we should celebrate our first night as room mates."
    (Chuck sighs, he then proceeds to speak in a low tone.)
    "Well, there is an open mic at this little club around the corner, for MC's and DJ's alike, I mean we could get into that if you want, but I don't know I'm kinda drained from moving."
    (Q laughs, chuckling he says.)
    "Man we didn't move anything, dude hop in the shower so we can get a move on."
    (Q steps out the kitchen and looks at the crate by the door.)
    "I gotta sort that crate for my set tonight."
    (Chuck hops up then stretches he looks at Q, then speaks loudly.)
    "Aight lets do this! I'm not going to be shy or anything."
    (Q laughs a little, his room mate was shy, they both paused and then laughed. Q breaks the laughter.)
    "Man you shyer then a turtle in its shell, hop in the shower so we can get this going. Do you even know what kicks you throwing on Chuck."
    (Chuck looks up from laughter and chuckles even more.)
    "A turtle in a shell, I thought you was from Chicago, ain't you supposed to be funny. And what kicks you think I'm throwing on, some black and white adidas shelltoes fool."
    (Chuck walks to his bag full of shoes, pulls his favorite shelltoes out and grabs his jeans. He looks into the closet and yanks off a tee shirt with RUN DMC on it. He smiles, then turns to Q, without words Q gives him the thumbs up. Chuck starts towards the bathroom, he chucks the peace sign in the air and yells.)
    "Be back in five minutes, dueces!"
    (Q laughs and sits down, he slips off his slippers grabs his ankle socks and puts them on. He gets up and looks through his row of sneakers, he looks up and down the row of kicks. He looks down upon his shirt, its from the PHLI store back in Chicago, it's navy blue and light blue, a thought bubble forms over his head. His Slam City Skates, his SB Dunks he traded a couple of things he wished he had back. Yet these kicks were worth it. He walks over, he knows which kicks exactly he needs, he takes out the tissue out the shoe, slips his feet in and tucks his jeans behind the tongue. He looks up, then yells.)
    "You done in there?"
    (Chuck comes out of the bathroom, a cloud of steam lets out of the door, Chuck steps down, RUN DMC shirt, and his Adidas. He nods to Q and says.)
    "Lets go man, lets go!"
    (The two grab their things, Chuck his iPod, Q his crate of records. Chuck holds the door and waits for Q to leave out with his records, he then looks back at the camera before the scene concludes. He opens his mouth, but it isn't his voice, it's a dj sample scratch, from Gang Starr's "Just to get a rep." It says)
    "And this is how the story goes."
    (The scene fades as Gang Starr continues to play.)
