《Infinity || Dan Smith》Thirty-Six.
Advertisement
There is a high action packed car chase scene between Lily and Liam. The context of the scene is Lily is trying to get away from Liam, after he found out she was helping a unseen villain.
Both Dan and Charlie are doing their own stunts. Of course they've been practicing nonstop with professional stunt drivers. It's mainly two cars spreading down a motor way. The gaps between each car their dodging is fairly big so accidents are prone to not happen.
"This is so fucking cool!" Charlie manically laughs while she zooms in and out of the cars. Dan follows behind, leaving about a ten meter gap between the two vehicles.
Dan, who is on the other end of the radio laughs, he's never driven this fast before in his life. Though, a few accidents have happened for him to be put off driving forever!
"Dan, you're getting too close." The stuntman says whilst watching the tail end of Charlie's camera.
"Sorry..." Dan says whilst concentrating on the road as he slows down a little bit.
"We're taking a risk by not using stunt drivers. You both know that right?" — Aubrey sternly says into the handheld radio — "Anyway, can you both handle acting while driving?" Aubrey says expecting an answer right away to prove that they're capable. Of course Charlie is the first to answer with a psychotic laugh.
"Hell yeah!"
But the only problem is that they both can't stop laughing. They can't take the scene seriously. The rush of adrenaline is almost too much, Aubrey's main priority is Charlie.
"Dan there's visitors for you..." Aubrey then whispers into the radio while Dan's visitors look away from the fast cars and huddle up amongst themselves.
"My band members?" Dan confusedly asks.

"Yes. Both of you can pull over and talk to them if you wish, it's lunchtime." Neither Charlie or Dan wants to stop the thrill, but they know that they have to. Dan didn't really speak to the guys at the London marathon, and Chris had to cancel coming to the set since his kids and wife were ill, so today is definitely Dan's chance.
Charlie pulls over first, and then Dan pulls over behind her. As soon as they both get out the car, they see the three men stand opposite them with their arms folded.
Dan cracks a smile and wave, but Kyle is the only one to wave back. The other nods their heads in his direction looking, and feeling, incredibly nervous. "I'm going to book a scan for later this week!" Charlie shouts while the mechanics come to check their cars, but since they're both okay they fill them up with petrol instead.
"Come and meet the guys first!" Dan shouts.
Charlie shakes her head in hesitation, but Dan holds his hand out. She can't exactly refuse now that they have seen her, she wouldn't want to be seen as rude but Dan's...friends.
Charlie then looks in their direction and waves at Kyle. Both of them walk up to the the guys with a shy smile, "and who might this be?" Chris tries cracking a joke while looking towards Charlie.
"Charlie Everett, Dan's girlfriend. And you are?" Chris's eyes widen. He knew Kyle said that Dan had a crush on Charlie...he wasn't expecting them to get together.
"Woody...or Chris. I was the drummer." Charlie cracks a smile and nods her head.
"Yeah. I know. It's great to finally meet you and Will, I've seen and heard you guys play...well on YouTube and Spotify." Both of them crack a smile before quickly hugging her.

"It's good to see this one...finally." Chris nods his head towards Dan...while he stands there looking very sheepish and timid.
"I think it's better if I love you and leave you for a little while, if that's okay?" Charlie says while Dan's eyes widen. He doesn't want to be left alone in case if he says anything which might make the boys turn on him, but Charlie feels like Dan is doing well so far. She wants to give him space to say whatever he wants.
While Charlie runs off into the distance, since it's pouring down with rain, the boys stand outsides. Huddled into a small circle. Oddly enough not a single one of them wants to move or go inside.
The rainy atmosphere seems to match the dismal mood.
"She mentioned something about a scan...is she okay?" Chris breaks the tension and points in direction of the way Charlie went.
Dan immediately smiles at the thought of his unborn child. Despite originally not wanting nothing to do with it, Dan has managed to somehow adore it. "Yeah, Charlie's okay. It's just that..." — Dan's voice trails off while all three of them look at him intrigued...there's no way that he can't tell them now — "we're expecting." Nearly all of their jaws drop at the thought of their friend...becoming someone's father.
It's only a shock to their systems because the last time that they saw Dan...he was not in a good place at all. Dan became the human definition of 'darkness', he looked lost and unstable. But now he has a family of his own in the making! He's got colour in his cheeks and fire in his loins. He's better than his ever been before.
"Bloody hell mate, congratulations." Chris says as he cracks a smile for his friend, before putting both of his arms around him for a second or two.
"Girl or boy?" Kyle asks while the weird London weather goes from being grey and stormy...to bright and colourful. Wizard of Oz hasn't got shit compared to London.
"We don't know yet. It's kind of the reason why Charlie wants to get a scan, but she's not that far along so I guess we'll have to wait a few more weeks before we'll know." Dan hasn't read the 'fatherhood guide for dummies' yet but his planning on doing so this weekend.
"Congratulations." Will whispers with a gentle smile while Dan nods his head in his direction.
Despite Bastille not being a 'thing' anymore...they sure are good friends.

Dip$h!+s in Space
An eccentric comedy novel (that thinks it's a TV show) about space, and the Dipsh!+s that end up stranded in it. This hyper-self-aware comedy of stupid proportions, centers around Captain William T Lawg (no relation) and his adventures as a guy who managed to afford a refitted soft-top ice-cream truck, in space. Explore the universe with his trusty crew of valiant randos. Marley, the tech-bro, stoner spacebunny, who just wants to get away from his home world and the bullies it harbors. Duffy, the plump and sassy female mechanic, who has had every job in existence totaling far more years than possible. Roy, the frigging fabulous, flamboyant android, and former spy…or possibly current spy. (dun dun, daaaa!) And lastly, but certainly leastly, that other chick the captain keeps trying to bang. Ride with the crew of the notorious Tast-E-Chill, to a world of wonder that a lot of other space travelers have already been before, but probably not Lawg, so it's still exciting. This satirical joke on itself and every sci-fi trope ever to exist, will be sure to either thrill you or disappoint you, because COMEDY…IS…SUBJECTIVE! With a crew of 3-10 and an IQ of also probably 3-10, The captain putters along to uncharted lands, where history, loot, drama, innuendos of the sexual verity, and various Technicolor hoes shall surely be waiting, usually with some form of trap. Each season brings new and interesting crewmen, like: Menace: the adorable genderless frog-child-thing with the heart of gold and the dialogue vocabulary of a slightly trained parrot. Greg: the 8 foot tall, ancient, thermonuclear, semi-retired alien overlord who just wants to prove he still has a purpose…and also to rule the galaxy. Izzy: a 3rd generation, age-reversed reboot, accidental clone of her own mother/sister/older self, who happens to be Greg's daughter-in-law…and much, much more. Prepare yourself for shallow adventure, moderately-to high offensive dialogue, and overwhelmingly childish scenarios. Tag along as the crew battles, fierce enemies, lack of food and survival tape, and occasionally their own incompetence. Teen Romance, current politics, subtlety, dignity, this sucker has none of those, and it darn well knows it. Raise the sails and grab the rails as a bunch of dipsh!+s find themselves...IN SPACE. (Roll dramatic tapering credits, to royalty free trumpet music)
