More on my script....

I have been thinking much more about my script, and I have decided on some of the ways in which Natalie is going to approach Morty with her decision to kill her boyfriend. Natalie is also on the swim team, she does notice that Morty is always sitting all the way in the back of the bleachers looking over her at all of her meets. The day after she find out that her boyfriend is threatening to blackmail her, she decides to use her, in a swimsuit after her meet, to her advantage to confront Morty. We see in a POV of Morty, Natalie coming straight towards him after she is done with her laps. She has just released her hair from her cap, towel almost unraveling at her hips, and her hair flowing across her face (all done in slow motion). Then we see Morty's face and his whole body tighten as he looks around wondering who it is that she is looking at, thinking it could never be him. As she finally reaches him, she gives him a kiss on the cheek and whispers to him, "Meet me behind the gym in about 20 minutes", and walks away. Morty's cheeks turn red as he cleans his glasses out of disbelief. He is left without breath, and confused as ever. He sits there for about 10 minutes, and he sees her walk away and turn back and smile. With this we get a VO of Morty stating how he cannot believe what had just happened, how he can't believe she actually spoke to him, and was convinced it had to be about Geometry homework, or something of that matter. He also states how he will never wash the right side of his cheek ever again because of her soft kiss.
By this short part of the script, we can see the confidence Natalie has, and the power she has over Morty. With a few words, and the appeal of her beauty, he is left spellbounded at untimately at her beckon call.
