Falling Hard: Klaus and Alexa's Tumultuous Love Story

FALLING HARD – A SCREENPLAY --- SCENE 1 – COLLEGE PARKING LOT – DAY KLAUS, a rugged college gangster, leans against his bike in the parking lot, drinking from a flask. His charisma masks his intoxication. Friends linger around, laughing. Across campus, ALEXA, an innocent psychology student with short hair and charming eyes, reads under a tree. Klaus notices her. His expression changes instantly—love at first sight. --- SCENE 5 – COLLEGE HALLWAY – DAY Klaus teases his friend NITI, who’s too shy to talk to a girl. NITI If you’re so brave, why don’t you go confess to that girl you keep staring at? KLAUS (without hesitation) Fine. Klaus strides toward Alexa, who is walking with her books. He stops her. KLAUS I love you. Alexa freezes, shocked. She walks away without a word. Klaus is left standing, heart pounding. --- SCENE 12 – COLLEGE PARKING LOT – NIGHT Klaus drinks heavily. Alexa has told him she’s in a relationship. Klaus storms toward the anonymous boyfriend and his friends. KLAUS You don’t understand—I love her more than anyone ever could! Alone but furious, Klaus grabs the boy by the collar, dragging him to Alexa. KLAUS Alexa, I love you. Alexa stares in shock. Klaus storms off, punching walls, breaking bottles, and drinking until his hands bleed. --- SCENE 16 – OUTSIDE CAMPUS – DAYS LATER Klaus follows Alexa discreetly every day. He waits at the gate at the same time, learns her routines, admires every little thing she does. Nobody realizes he’s drunk—his face hides it. --- SCENE 20 – COLLEGE FESTIVAL – NIGHT The fest is alive with lights and music. Klaus sneaks in with 20–30 friends carrying alcohol. Professors catch him. PROFESSOR SHARMA One mistake tonight, Klaus, and you’re finished. Klaus nods, restraining himself. Inside, a massive crowd surrounds the concert. Klaus stays with Alexa. No one dares to disturb them. He shields her, keeping her safe. Lights glow across Alexa’s face in the dark night. Klaus gazes at her, lost. KLAUS I wish this night could last forever. For the first time, Alexa feels safe—protected. Her eyes glimmer with love. --- SCENE 28 – FIRST DATE – EVENING Klaus pulls up in his car at the parking lot. Alexa hides something behind her back. ALEXA Close your eyes. Klaus obeys. She places a remote-control car in his hands. KLAUS (stunned, hugging her tight) Thank you... you don’t know what this means. They drive through the night, visit a temple, then a rustic village café. Klaus drinks while Alexa eats quietly. On the way back, Alexa falls asleep in the car. Klaus holds her hand, brushing her hair back, admiring her peaceful face. They reach her home. Klaus’s friends help drop her off. Klaus smiles quietly. KLAUS Best night ever. --- SCENE 35 – RELATIONSHIP CONFLICTS – DAYS LATER Montage of Klaus and Alexa dating: laughing, sharing calls, holding hands. Slowly, cracks appear. Arguments grow frequent. ALEXA You never take things seriously, Klaus. You just forget fights like they don’t matter. KLAUS Because I don’t want to lose you over small things! Klaus pleads for peace. Alexa clings to every hurt. Their love turns bittersweet. SONG: "STAY TONIGHT" (Verse) Lights dance softly across your face, And in this crowd, I find my place. Your hand in mine, the world turns slow- A feeling I never thought I'd know. (Chorus) Stay tonight... just stay with me, Let this moment be all we ever need. If love is real, I think it's here, Right in your eyes, pulling me near. Stay tonight... don't let it fade- You're the wish I never thought I'd make. (Bridge) Hold me close-don't say goodbye, Let's freeze this heartbeat in the sky. (Final Line) Stay tonight... and I'l yours.
