[eastenders rox]

Thanx, once again, for all my replies! And thanx to every 1 who likes and supports my script!

Episode 5:

Sharon: A chat, oh come on Zoe! We’re way past that!

Zoe: I just wanna talk.

Sharon: What about?

Zoe: Dennis.

Sharon: Oh, well that figures!

Sharon threw her arms up in the air in distress and walked out onto the sea view balcony, pouring herself a glass of vodka Zoe followed her out.

Zoe: I’m worried about Dennis, I’m not sure he’s entirely happy in this relationship of yours…..

Sharon turned round to face Zoe in alarm, and almost laughed. Then she put on a straight face and things became more serious.

Sharon: You have got to be kiddin’, eh Zo.?

Zoe: Dennis told me that you got married-

Sharon: -Yeah, and?!

Zoe: Dennis would never marry anyone…..

Sharon: Oh, and how do you know that?

Zoe: Did you force him? Blackmail?

Sharon was in utter shock-

Sharon: Is this what it’s come to? You, standin’ here, mouthin off and accusing me of blackmailin’ my husband into marrying me?

Zoe didn’t know what to say.

Sharon: Oh, give up, Zo.! (She goes back inside, slamming her glass down) Just get it into you’re thick head that he ain’t yours and he loves me!

Zoe: But he can’t-

Sharon: Oh? And why’s that, then?

Zoe: ……..well, you can’t give him kids.

Sharon’s face changed from anger to self pity…

On the beach

Dennis gazed out to sea, everything was black with night. He turned round and headed back up to the room.


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

In the room


Sharon: Oh, here we go again-

Zoe: I’m right, Sharon.

Sharon: I don’t have to listen to this-

Zoe: You ought to. A baby’s the one thing you can’t have and Dennis wants one, I know he does. And you know it too.

Sharon: Well, maybe he does-

Zoe: So what then? IVF, adoption? Come on Sharon.

Sharon: Well, sometimes things change don’t they….

Zoe: Not you- you’ll never get pregnant, not by ‘im, not by no one!

Sharon: Shut up, Zoe, things change and trust me, you’re in for a shock!

Zoe: What then?! Go on, surprise me!

Sharon: I am pregnant!

Zoe was speechless and completely stunned. So was Sharon, for telling her.

Suddenly, both their eyes turned their attention to the open door way……… Dennis stood there, mouth ajar. He looked at Zoe, then Sharon and looked confused.

…. She just stood their, gazing at him and nodded, slowly.

Episode 6: Sharon and Dennis talk, while Zoe gets drunk at the bar, but Zoe isn’t through with them yet…

[Angeldelight]

Wow... i'm so glad their guna have a bebe... a tiny ickle bebe... yey yey yey... Zoe can NEVER split them up... they love each other and they got married... yey yey yey...

[shannisrules]

lovin every word lol

[eastenders rox]

As always, thanx for my replies!

Episode 6:


Dennis kept his eyes on Sharon and spoke slowly……….

Dennis: Zoe, I need to talk to Sharon.

Zoe: I’ll see you later, then.

She left them alone and closed the door on her way out. Sharon sat down on the bed with her head in her hands.

Dennis: What was all that about?

Sharon: You know what that was about- (she looked up) – and who…

Dennis: So, Zoe starts screamin’ blue murder at you for marryin’ me, she brings up the infertility and suddenly you make up some unconvincing lie about being pregnant?!

Sharon: It wasn’t a lie! IT WAS THE TRUTH!


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Back at the bar


Zoe: Another one of them cocktail-fings over here, mate! Wiv double the alcohol!

She slurs her words and then lies her head down on the bar, drunkenly.


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

In the room


Dennis is, now, sitting on the bed trying to comfort Sharon.


Dennis: Why, what- how could you be pregnant?

Sharon: I dunno. A few weeks back, I weren’t feeling too good-

Dennis: A few weeks back!? How far gone are you!?

Sharon: Well….. they reckon about nearly three months, but I found out ‘bout two weeks ago.

Dennis: Who, exactly, is ‘they’?

Sharon: Well, if you let me finish!

Dennis: …..sorry. This is hard for me to understand.

Sharon: How’d you think I feel, eh?

She sighs

Sharon: I spoke to Walford Surgery, and they referred me to Walford General, as they had all my past history and notes. They did a few tests, you know; blood and things….. Then said that it was almost certain ……except…… I had to do a pregnancy test. To make sure.

Dennis: I can’t believe I’m hearin’ this….

Sharon: I’m sorry, babe. I should have told-

Dennis perked up-

Dennis: IT’S MY DREAM COME TRUE!

Sharon: (Smiling) I only plucked up the courage to do the test last night……

She stands up and Dennis follows her with his eyes as she walks over to the chest of draws and removes a thin, white, plastic stick, from the top draw. She sits back down.

Dennis: (Taking the test from her) it’s incredible (he half-laughed)

He turns to face Sharon and they pause, before kissing passionately.

They are interrupted by a knock on the door. Sharon answers it to a drunken Zoe, who waltzes straight in.

Zoe: Well I hope you’re happy!

Sharon: (Sarcastically) Believe me, Zo., we are…

Zoe: Infact, I hope you’re both bl***y ecstatic!!!

Dennis: Zoe (Standing up) I think you’ve had a little too much to drink-

Sharon: (Whispered-) you don’t say………

Dennis took Zoe to the door-

Dennis: Night, Zo.

-and slammed it in her face.

From behind the door you could here her whine ‘Dennis…’, but he didn’t care, neither did Sharon. He cupped her face with his hands and kissed her with his (classic) grin on his face.

Dennis: (Gesturing towards the bed) come on.

They fall onto the bed in a passionate embrace, wanting to immediately free each other of their clothes. Sharon paused-

Dennis: What?

Sharon: Dennis (Smiling)

Dennis: Mmmhmm…(grinning, cheekily)

Sharon: Be careful of the baby.

Dennis: Course.

Then they resumed……………………….



Next time (Last eppie! ) Episode 7: Zoe leaves and Sharon and Dennis prepare to tell the square the good news when they get back.
