I Won't Tell You I'm Lonely/Transcript

## Brandon's Office / Reuben's Office

*Luna is standing behind Brandon's desk. Brandon is looking at Kai with a furious look on his face. Vince is sitting on a chair by the door*.

BRANDON: So, are you going to explain this madness or what? Actually, why and how was I the last one to find out about this? Does Reuben know?
*Vince shakes his head no*.

BRANDON: Oh, so he doesn't know either? Well, this is gonna be a nice, long day.
*Kai is fiddling with his fingers. An angry Brandon throws something at him*.

KAI: What was that for??
BRANDON: [yells] There's more where that came from. Don't make me mad, because you're already on the list.
VINCE: [whispers] Don't get on his bad side. You know how he gets when it comes to her.
*Brandon picks something up and throws it at Vince too*.

BRANDON: I'm sorry, did you say something?
*Vince stands up and points a finger at Brandon. Brandon stands up and begins snarling at Vince*.

VINCE: Remember your place boy.
BRANDON: [yells] Well it looks like my grandfather is trying to tell me that my daughter isn't my daughter.
*Luna looks at everyone with a flustered look*.

LUNA: I'm sorry. T-This right here, doesn't seem to be working out. Instead of trying to solve the problem, you're only making it worse.

**Reuben's Office**

*Luna opens the door and closes it with her back against the wall. Reuben looks up and smiles*.

REUBEN: Are you okay?
LUNA: [sighs] No. Not at all.
*Reuben gets up from the desk and brings Luna into a hug*.

REUBEN: Whatever it may be, I'm sure it's not that big of a deal.
LUNA: [sighs] That's the thing. It's a big deal *to* me!
*He takes a hold of her hand and sits her down*.

REUBEN: Then tell me. What's bothering you? Where's the smart mouth girl that I know? MMM?
LUNA: What if, the girl you knew throughout your life weren't who you thought they were?
REUBEN: And what do you mean by that?
LUNA: I mean what if, by some fucked up twist of fate I'm your daughter?
REUBEN: [stammers] W-What d-do you mean?
LUNA: I'm saying that according to *your* husband, I'm *your* daughter.
REUBEN: Impossible! H-how exactly?
LUNA: Kai was in the delivery room that night. He took me away and didn't say anything afterward.
*Reuben stands up. His face has gone from pale to bright red*.

REUBEN: [yells] You're lying!
*Luna looks down. She's hurt by Reuben's choice of words. To hide the tears, she walks out of the room. As she's walking, she's stopped by Vince who instantly notices that something is wrong*.

VINCE: Are you okay?
*Luna looks up at Vince but ignores him*.

LUNA: It's just that I know that you don't want me as your daughter.
*Vince can see that Luna is shaking*.

VINCE: No. I've always known that you're my daughter. We've all got something different about us.
LUNA: [smiles] You don't have to sugar coat it. It's the truth.

*Brandon's Office*

*Brandon is still staring at Kai with disgust. Kai is now beginning to feel disturbed*.

BRANDON: You're still going to tell me what happened that night.
*Kai stares at Brandon but doesn't answer*.

BRANDON: Did you hear what I said?
KAI: [nonchalantly] Yeah, yeah. Whatever.
**OPENING CREDITS**

## Luna's Dorm

*Luna slams the door in Vince's face. She crawls under the covers and begins crying into her pillow. Vince knocks on the door, but Luna ignores him. Vince then uses magic to open the door*.

VINCE: Come here, sweetheart.
LUNA: [crying] He hates me. Reuben North hates me!
*Luna lays back down and begins crying into her pillow again. Vince sits on the edge of the bed and pulls her into his arms*.

VINCE: No, he doesn't. He just needs some time. That's all.
LUNA: [sobbing] Honestly, I'm not even that surprised.
VINCE: [sighs] You can't let his words get into that head of yours.
LUNA: I was already feeling bad about myself, but now I feel even worse.
VINCE: Look at me, you're worth everything. I'm not saying that so you'll stop crying it's because I'm telling the truth.
LUNA: My dad hates me. The question is, do you hate me too?
*Vince looks at her with an affectionate face*.

VINCE: Me? I could never hate you. We all have our flaws.
LUNA: You're right. I'm just crazier than the rest of you.
VINCE: Why would you say that?
*Luna rolls her eyes. Vince sits her up and brings her to his side. He kisses her head and stands up*.

VINCE: Think about what I said though. Don't let the asshole's words get to you. Besides, you've never witnessed "hurtful" words until you've heard them come out of my mouth.
## Reuben's Office

VINCE: What was that? You didn't happen to run into a severely emotional little girl, did you?
REUBEN: [sighs] I may have. Look, I was mad okay? It's not her. It's the fact that everything is a lie.
*Vince shakes his head and sits next to Reuben*.

REUBEN: I guess what I'm trying to say, is that I'm in a state of denial. I mean, we can't even be sure that what Kai is saying is the truth.
VINCE: He is telling the truth for once.
REUBEN: Oh so, we're just gonna believe my psychotic brother now?
VINCE: I don't believe anyone until I see it for myself. But this is different. I know she's our daughter. You know I can sense others in my bloodline.
*Vince sighs*.

VINCE: [chuckles] I know what you're about to say. Yes, she's a North by blood but she's closer than you'll ever think. I know she's our daughter and for you to get in-line, I've found the perfect person to administer the blood tests.
REUBEN: [groggily] Who?
FREYA: Me.
REUBEN: And you're so sure about this?
FREYA: Sure as I'll ever be.
## Vince's Classroom / Brandon's Office

*As students begin to file into class an unexpected pupil approaches Vince. He's surprised to see her since he doesn't teach her*.

ARIA: Professor North? S-she's missing.
VINCE: [annoyed] Who's missing?
ARIA: Luna. She left a note in her room. She's gone.
VINCE: [sarcastically] What a perfect time to tell me.

**Brandon's Office**

KAI: [yells] What? What do you mean she's missing? If weren't for prince charming over here, she wouldn't have run away.
REUBEN: Don't blame this on me! This is your fault.
KAI: We'll deal with that later. Right now, my daughter is out there.
BRANDON: [interrupts] Your daughter? To be clear, she's my daughter.
*Kai stands up with an angry face*.

KAI: To be clear, I've raised her while you were off with your woman wreaking havoc on the world. I fed her and I loved her. So yes. My daughter. I loved her when no one else did.
*Kai sits down and looks at Reuben*.

KAI: [angrily] You better find my little girl! Because if something happens to her, it's all because of you! And I don't want to have to kill you, but I will.
## Kai's Penthouse

KAYLEIGH: What are doing you here? Shouldn't you be at school?
LUNA: School sucks. Turns out I don't know who I can trust.
KAYLEIGH: Well, you know I'm here for you. So tell me, what's wrong?
LUNA: Brandon Marshall isn't my dad. Vince and Reuben are.
KAYLEIGH: What?
LUNA: You didn't know? He didn't tell you? Kai decided to take a trip back to his psychotic side.
KAYLEIGH: No. He didn't tell me that. I don't know why I'm surprised though. It's Kai.
LUNA: You guys were the only ones who cared about me. You guys loved me for who I was. You never forced me to be something I wasn't.
*Luna sighs and takes a deep breath*.

LUNA: You guys always taught me that if I wanted to be something, I could be it no matter what. But right now, I don't feel like that. Right now, I feel like a complete nobody.
KAYLEIGH: T-that's not true. You brought happiness to him when it was impossible. So, you're not a complete nobody. You're Luna Marshall and never forget that.
*Luna smiles*.

LUNA: Yes well, now that Reuben is my dad, and now that I'm "missing" he's gonna have the whole police force looking for my ass.
*They both stop and begin laughing*.

KAYLEIGH: You know, I wouldn't be surprised if Vince had all the witches doing locater spells.
LUNA: [laughs] Yep. That too.
## LAPD

*Brandon is holding a crying Katherine in his arms. She's devastated that Luna has disappeared*.

REUBEN: [whispers] I've got her.
*Reuben takes Katherine into his arms and begins to comfort her*.

REUBEN: Shhh. Daddy's got you. I've got you.
KATHERINE: [crying] You're gonna find her. Right?
REUBEN: Of course. I'm gonna do everything in my power to find her. I won't rest until we've found her.
*Reuben signals Freya to come and get her. Freya takes Katherine into her arms who still sobbing*.

FREYA: It's going to be okay, baby.
REUBEN: I don't care how long it takes. Gather all the witches in New Orleans and have them do locater spells.
*Freya nods and walks out the room*.

REUBEN: Brandon, we're gonna need every and I mean every witch in the North coven.
*Just as Brandon leaves Reuben remembers something else*.

REUBEN: Oh and when you see Kai, tell him to get our coven as well. We're gonna need all the help we can get. That includes all witches at the school. This is my fault. I should've accepted her for who she is. And once we find her, I'm gonna be the father she never had.
BRANDON: You know, you've always been there for her. But at one point she's gonna have to choose one of us.
REUBEN: I'm well aware of that.
BRANDON: So don't get your hopes up.
## The North School

BRANDON: [yells] I need my witches! All of you.
ELIZABETH: I'm gonna need all wolves to scatter through the woods.
BRANDON: You'll go in packs.
KAI: Vampires, you'll track her scent.
BRANDON: [yells] And just this once I'm giving you my permission to feed on those who stand in your way.
*Vince turns around and looks at the core 3*.

VINCE: You three will be with me.
*All the students are standing there. Brandon is clearly in a dangerous state of mind and at any moment he'll lash out*.

KAI: [whispers] This reminds me of last year's football team.
BRANDON: [annoyed and whispers] Tell me about it.
*He looks around at the students who are still standing there*.

BRANDON: I think we've made ourselves quite clear.
KAI: [yells] Well don't just stand there! Go! Luna isn't gonna find herself is she?
*As the students leave Brandon takes his phone out and calls Reuben*.

BRANDON: I know you said "all witches" but I thought that since we have a school full of supernatural critters I thought that we could use all the help we can get.
REUBEN: [voice over] That's fine. I-I got a call from Kayleigh. She said Luna stopped by earlier.
*Brandon turns around and hits Kai on the shoulder*.

BRANDON: Did you know that Luna dropped by at your place earlier?
*Kai shakes his head no*.

BRANDON: Do you know if she's gone anyplace else?
REUBEN: [voice over] No, but I'm about to do a locater spell right now. I'll call you back as soon as I find something.
## Vincenté's Mansion

*On a table lays a map. Reuben sighs and rolls his sleeves up. Before he can do anything he hears footsteps. He turns around and is shocked when he sees a certain person*.

REUBEN: [yells] So this is what we're doing now? We're running away and scaring people?
LUNA: I needed time. I needed time to realize that you're more than just my grandfather.
REUBEN: [yells] You had all of us worried sick. You nearly gave your mother a heart attack.
LUNA: [yells] Well maybe if you hadn't have said what you said, I wouldn't have run away.
REUBEN: [sighs] I know what I said. And I deeply regret it. It's just that I never expected someone so close to me like you to turn out to be my daughter.
LUNA: [quietly] So you don't hate me?
REUBEN: Of course not. I may get like super angry, but I'm not the one to hate on.
*Luna smiles and sighs. She goes up to Reuben and hugs him. This makes him happy as he hugs her back*.

REUBEN: I love you.
LUNA: [hesitates] I love you too, dad.
## Brandon's Office

REUBEN: [voice over] So good news. I found her.
BRANDON: [sighs] Thank Kyle for praying for me.
*Elizabeth turns around and scowls at him*.

ELIZABETH: Kyle doesn't like you. And you know you don't like him either.
BRANDON: Yeah I know. I just like making a mock out of him.
ELIZABETH: Whatever.
BRANDON: Anyway. Where was she?
REUBEN: [voice over] Vince's. She scared the living daylights out of me, but I'm recovering. Thanks for asking.
BRANDON: I didn't ask.
## Vincenté's Mansion

REUBEN: You know, I've never shared anything too personal with anyone in my life.
LUNA: And you're about to tell me?
REUBEN: Yes, but promise that this stays between you and me?
LUNA: Promise.
REUBEN: I've always wondered about my place in this world. I grew up with an abusive step-father and a mother who thought she knew what was best for me. Step-father was the devil himself and that's ironic because I'm pretty sure that my biologic dad is the devil.
*Luna chuckles*.

REUBEN: Then came along your mother. The light of my life. She made a couple of mistakes in her life, but then ended up having you. Turns out it was all a lie. Turns out that my deranged older brother decided to play a trick on me. He thought it was funny to switch my kid with someone else's.
LUNA: What are you trying to say?
REUBEN: [sighs] I don't know. I guess that I'm hurt. But don't think that this is everyone else's fault. It's mine too. I took a turn to the dark side for a little bit. It's um, it's scary.
LUNA: No kidding.
REUBEN: I want you to be happy.
## Brandon's Office

*Brandon looks up to see that Aria is standing before him*.

BRANDON: Yes?
ARIA: I need to go let out for a while.
BRANDON [sighs; nods his head] That's fine. But make sure to stay away from the lakeside. Seniors are throwing a party, and sadly I'm gonna crash it.
ARIA: R-right. Yea, no problem.
*Aria walks out and Luna walks in*.

LUNA: Brandon Marshall crashing a party? What has happened to the party-loving man that I know?
BRANDON: Well, look who finally decided to show up after all day. I thought you said you wanted to graduate.
LUNA: No I do, but I needed time for myself. Everything is happening so fast. I need time to just slow down.
BRANDON: I hear you, and I understand. I would've never thought that...
LUNA: I know. We all didn't expect this to happen, but I did. We have to move on.
*Luna smiles and exits the room. She watches as Reuben enters. She hears them talking about her. A curious Luna enters the room once again*.

REUBEN: You're going to have to tell her.
LUNA: Tell me what?
BRANDON: [sighs] You have to choose one of us.
## Vincenté's Mansion

*It is now midnight. Vince is laying in bed and notices that Reuben isn't beside him. He decides to let go of the situation. However, when Reuben enters the room, things become a bit shaky*.

VINCE: Where are you going?
REUBEN: [sighs] Away.
VINCE: Away? Away where? How long will it be?
REUBEN: I don't know. I need to go back home. I need to clear my mind.
VINCE: [raises voice] Clear your mind? From what exactly?
*Reuben sits down on the chair. He puts his hand over his face*.

REUBEN: I'm just going home for a week. I need time to cope.
*Reuben stands up and sits beside Vince*.

REUBEN: I'm not mad or anything. I just...
VINCE: [kisses Reuben's head] I get it. Take all the time you need.
REUBEN: I think that the only thing that's going to help me is a whole day in bed and consuming a ridiculous amount of Oreos.
VINCE: [laughs] Don't complain when you can't fit your jeans.
REUBEN: [unamused] Very funny.
*As Reuben walks out of the room, Vince yells at him*.

VINCE: [yells] Oh, and tell Katerina I said hi.
## Vincenté's Mansion - FLASHBACK

*It's Vince and Reuben's wedding day. Reuben is getting ready, and unbeknownst to him, Vince is standing outside of the room. Vince seems to be a little impatient and decides to walk in the room*.

REUBEN: They say if you see the bride before the actual wedding it's considered bad luck.
VINCE: [laughs] Oh so you're the bride now? Wow! You're extra gay.
REUBEN: So be it then.
*Vince rolls his eyes and helps Reuben with the bowtie*.

VINCE: God, I've always liked you in a suit but now, I think I like you in the tux.
REUBEN: [turns around] You're still here?
VINCE: You were struggling with the tie so I was being nice.
*Reuben smirks and turns around. He looks Vince up and down. He smirks and then kisses him. However, Vince pulls him away*.

VINCE: No. We'll do it after.
REUBEN: When we're drunk?
VINCE: Precisely.
REUBEN: [laughs] God I love you.
VINCE: Save it for your vows. I'm interested to hear what you have to say.
REUBEN: Where are you going now?
VINCE: I've gotta go check on my best man. He seems to be clueless these days.
*As Vince exits the room, Bella enters*.

BELLA: I can't believe you're getting married. Again.
*Reuben turns around with his arms open out to her*.

BELLA: But just to let you know, I'm happy for the both of you. I can't think of a more perfect couple than you two.
REUBEN: I guess.
BELLA: [chuckles] Are you ready?
REUBEN: [sighs] A little jittery but I can handle it.
*All the guests are seated. Brandon and Vince make their way down the aisle. Brandon takes his place behind Vince. Suddenly all the guests stand as Reuben makes his way down the aisle as he and Bella walk down with their arms locked. Katherine can be seen sitting with little tears forming in her eyes*.

FREYA: [whispers] Are you crying? Already?
*Katherine nods. When Christopher signals the crowd to be seated she sits*.

CHRISTOPHER: When you find that special person in your life, you just know.
*Vince and Reuben smile at each other*.

CHRISTOPHER: Vincenté Samuel Brandon North, do you take Reuben Christopher Parker as your lawfully wedded husband?
VINCE: [smiles] I do.
*Christopher then looks over at Reuben*.

CHRISTOPHER: Reuben Christopher Parker, do you take Vincenté Samuel Brandon North as your lawfully wedded husband?
REUBEN: I do.
*Tears can be seen streaming down Brandon's face. However, he tries his best to hide them*.

CHRISTOPHER: May I please have the wedding rings?
*Gracyn hands Christopher the rings. Vince slides the ring onto Reuben's finger and Reuben does vice versa*.

VINCE: I will love you as my equal.
REUBEN: And protect you above all else.
VINCE: When you speak, I will listen.
*Christopher wipes a tear from his face*.

CHRISTOPHER: By the power vested in me I hereby pronounce you one.
*The couple smiles*.

CHRISTOPHER: You may now kiss the groom.
*As Reuben and Vince begin to kiss, rose petals begin to fall from the sky*.

## North Manor

*Katherine is in the kitchen making her dinner. When she turns around, she sees that it's Reuben and sighs with relief*.

REUBEN: Did I scare you?
KATHERINE: [nods] A little bit.
REUBEN: [chuckles] Just a little or a lot?
KATHERINE: A little.
*Reuben sits down. Katherine notices that he's beginning to look sad. She walks over to him and sits on his lap*.

KATHERINE: Are you okay? This isn't like you to...
REUBEN: To what? To be without Vince? If you're wondering why I'm here, it's because I need a break from prince charming.
KATHERINE: [confused] Did something happen?
REUBEN: Everything is fine.
KATHERINE: You're a horrible liar.
*Reuben looks at Katherine with a surprised look. He seems to be speechless but eventually thinks of something to say*.

REUBEN: Me? A horrible liar? You're kidding, right? I'm Reuben North. I'm practically the father of lies.
KATHERINE: Technically, your father is the "father of lies", so let's take it easy there.
*Reuben rolls his eyes, and kisses Katherine's head*.

KATHERINE: Besides, you still haven't told me why you're here. A little argument with Vince can't be the reason. You two are made for each other.
REUBEN: I'm trying to process how the hell Luna is my daughter. If Vince said that Kai told him this then there's no real way to prove it.
## Brandon's Office

LUNA: I have to choose one of you? What does that even mean?
BRANDON: [sighs] Honey, you have to choose between Kai, Reuben, and myself.
LUNA: But I love you all. It's not fair!
*Brandon sighs and gets up from his seat. He sits on top of his desk and tries to reason with her*.

BRANDON: I know.
LUNA: This is going to be the worst year ever.
BRANDON: [to himself] I've already made that conclusion.
LUNA: Sometimes, I think life would be better without me.
BRANDON: You can't say things like that. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if...
*When Brandon looks up, he sees that Luna has left the room*.

BRANDON: You honestly, need to get that temper under control.
## The North School (Hallway)

ELIAS: What are you doing?
*Luna ignores Elias and pulls something out of her pocket*.

ELIAS: Are those... his keys?
LUNA: Maybe.
ELIAS: My advice is that you don't touch his car period.
LUNA: Calm down, will you? I'm just gonna skip next period and go for a ride.
ELIAS: In Brandon's Audi?
LUNA: Maybe.
*The room goes silent*.

LUNA: He won't notice.
ELIAS: Right. The headmaster won't notice that his car is missing.
LUNA: Why are you guys acting like it's a bad idea?
ELIAS: Because this is Brandon Marshall we're talking about.
LUNA: Well, It's not like I'm gonna be reckless.
## North Manor

*Katherine enters the room. She sees Reuben sound asleep on the couch. She smiles at him and drapes a blanket over his body. As she does this, he grabs her hand and kisses it*.

REUBEN: [sleepishly] You know I'd do anything for you...right?
KATHERINE: [nods head] I know, but where is this coming from? Did something else happen that you didn't tell me about?
*Reuben sighs. Katherine sits beside him on the couch, laying her head on his chest*.

REUBEN: No. I just can't believe that Kai lied to me, and apparently Vince was aware too. I don't know who I can trust anymore.
KATHERINE: Well, you know you can always trust me. If there's only one person in this world who's going be there for you besides Vince, it's me.
*Reuben sighs and puts his face down. Katherine smiles and kisses his cheek*.

KATHERINE: I'm always gonna be here for you.
REUBEN: I know. You're the only one I can trust at this point.
KATHERINE: [sighs] You're never gonna be alone, daddy. I promise.
*Reuben lays back down. Katherine shakes her head and smiles. She then lays down next to him. He kisses her head*.

REUBEN: You're always gonna be my little girl.
## Brandon's Office

*Kai walks into the office. He notices that Brandon doesn't look to well*.

KAI: You okay, dracula?
*Kai rolls his eyes. He walks up to Brandon and throws a piece of paper at him*.

KAI: I said are you okay?
*Brandon looks up with a serious look on his face*.

BRANDON: [sarcastically] I was fine until you decided to walk into those doors.
*Brandon sighs*.

BRANDON: Anyway, you're still gonna tell me what happened right?
KAI: It's not like I have a choice.
BRANDON: Really? You decided that you weren't gonna tell anyone about it?
KAI: I... I didn't tell anyone because people would automatically assume that what I'm saying is complete bullshit.
BRANDON: [laughs] Yes well what you're saying is complete bullshit and I see every reason not to believe a damn thing you say.
KAI: I believe I'm used to it by now. The choice isn't ours though. It's hers. But I just want her to know that whoever she picks is fine by me. I want her to know that I'll love her no matter what.
*Kai gets up out of his chair. Before he leaves the room Brandon questions him*.

BRANDON: You really do love my daughter. Don't you?
KAI: [shakes head] Yes. I really do love my daughter. Like I just said, I'll love her no matter what.
## Brandon C. Marshall Suites

*Brandon is headed to Luna's room when he walks past Sage*.

BRANDON: I've been meaning to ask you something.
SAGE: Yeah? What is it.
BRANDON: Have you gotten your cap and gown order in yet?
SAGE: [shakes head no] No. Not yet. Why? Is it past due?
BRANDON: No. But in few weeks they'll be due.
SAGE: Then I'll give it to you tomorrow.
*Brandon shakes his head*.

SAGE: Oh, if you're looking for Luna, she hasn't been in her room for a while.
*Brandon turns around with a confused look*.

BRANDON: [confused] Sorry?
SAGE: I didn't see her last period is what I'm trying to say.
BRANDON: She's playing hooky again?
SAGE: It's Luna. She does what she wants.
## Unknown Location

*Luna parks the car. She sits and waits. Suddenly there's a knock on the window. Luna looks up and smiles at the tall figure, who is revealed to be Dalton, Brandon's ex-roommate. He gets into the car, and hands Luna something. She smiles. When he looks away, she pulls him in for a kiss*.
