Eddie hastily grabs Dylan and shouts at julie to go upstairs and grab some things sharpish, Julie eventually gets to her feet and starts looking round the room as if she can't find her way upstairs.
-Julie lets go, c'mon move your fuckin arse.
Eddie takes an unaware Dylan into the front room and lays him down on the leather chesterfield, the sweat running down his face and mouth tasting of salt. Julie looks as if she's auditioning for a part in a horror film as she appears then disappears upstairs. Eddies mind is running faster than he can think as he recovers from accidently banging his head into the wall unit. He tries to compose himself, -Eddie keep calm and relaxed ; don't let your nerves outsmart you. He runs upstairs to see what julie's doing.
-Eddie i don't know what to take or leave.
He snapsback-just throw some fuckin clobber into the bags will you, and get the passports.
-What bags Eddie?
-The fuckin bags over there in the corner you stupid bitch.
-Don't talk to me like some fuckin slag of the street, i deserve more than that. I've been with you through thick and thin and i'm also the mother of your son, i have always ignored your activities, and have been loyal to you, bastard.
-Julie i've done this so that we can make a fresh start and live out our dreams.
-Dreams Eddie, what fuckin dreams? To always, be looking over our shoulder, not being able to see family and friends, the thought of being shot or butchered. You call that our fuckin dreams, you fuckin mug. It must have been your dream because you never told me about it. So for all my loyalty, visiting you in the can and giving you alibi after alibi when pc plods been after you. Also never mentioning your affairs to know one, and all i get in return is this fucking nightmare you selfish twat.
Julie then removes the bobble out of her brown highlighted hair as it drops to her shoulders, then with a swift move pulls her hair back so tightly into a ponytail, that you would think she has just had a facelift and botox.
They stand there motionless with there legs slightly apart and arms by there side, just staring at each other as if gunslingers trying to read each other to see who will draw first. Eddie embraces Julie and squeezes her tight as if his life depended on it, she responds by clutching at his black leather jacket, and burying her head in his chest crying uncontrollably.
-Julie i'm sorry, but i could not let you know because it just happened. I was in the lockup on my own smoking a weed and just staring at the safe, temptation got the better of me and i knew i was having it. Julie raises her head and looks at him with tears still running down her face, but manages to to straighten up, clench her face and utter, -I'm with you and i'm ready to go wherever we end up. Then as if her words were the switch for them to get into character, they begin to manoeuvre in military fashion.
