Chapter Six

''Back at the Stellosphere, in the training room, Silas and Charlotte stand on opposite sides of the room. He begins to walk towards her.''

(SPOKEN)

Silas: Charlotte, I’m sorry for how I behaved.

Charlotte: Don’t be. It’s not your fault that…

Silas: That what?

Charlotte: *sighs* I don’t know.

Silas: Well… do you want to talk sometime? Over the phone or… get together?

Charlotte: *shocked* A date?

Silas: *bashfully* Well… kind of?

Charlotte turns away, and clutches an arm.

Charlotte: I’m sorry, I can’t. I’m an alien, we’re human and… the TTA… we have our own responsibilities, Silas.

''Silas grabs her hand. The music begins to play.''

(SUNG)

Silas: You know I want you

It's not a secret I try to hide

I know you want me

So don't keep sayin' our hands are tied

You claim it's not in the cards

And fate is pullin' you miles away

And out of reach from me

But you're here in my heart

So who can stop me if I decide

That you're my destiny?

''Silas begins to pull her across the training room. Charlotte follows reluctantly.''

What if we rewrite the stars?

Say you were made to be mine

Nothing could keep us apart

You'd be the one I was meant to find

It's up to you, and it's up to me

No one can say what we get to be

So why don't we rewrite the stars?

Maybe the world could be ours

Tonight

''Charlotte sighs and pulls up a screen on her arm bracelet. Typing in a few things, she causes floating squares to appear at various heights. She begins to jump from one to another.''

Charlotte: You think it's easy

You think I don't wanna run to you

But there are mountains

And there are doors that we can't walk through

I know you're wondering why because we're able to be

Just you and me within these walls

But when we go outside, you're gonna wake up and see

That it was hopeless after all

No one can rewrite the stars

How can you say you'll be mine?

Everything keeps us apart

And I'm not the one you were meant to find

It's not up to you

It's not up to me

When everyone tells us what we can be

How can we rewrite the stars?

Say that the world can be ours

Tonight

''Silas has caught up to her. They look at each other and dance together.''

Both: All I want is to fly with you

All I want is to fall with you

So just give me all of you!

Charlotte: It feels impossible

Silas: It's not impossible

Charlotte: Is it impossible?

Both: Say that it's possible

How do we rewrite the stars?

Say you were made to be mine?

Nothing can keep us apart

'Cause you are the one I was meant to find

It's up to you

And it's up to me

No one can say what we get to be

And why don't we rewrite the stars?

Changing the world to be ours

They land on the ground, and Charlotte smiles before she turns away sadly.

Charlotte: You know I want you

It's not a secret I try to hide

But I can't have you

We're bound to break and my hands are tied

''Charlotte exists. Fade out.''
