Tayla Reed is 30 years old, has green eyes, longish black hair with bangs, stands 5′5”, and weighs about 120 lbs. Tayla’s been having strange dreams of an actor, Chris McDonald who she’s only seen once in a movie, and doesn’t understand why she keeps dreaming about him. Set in the year 1998 when Chris just turned 43 in February.
TAYLA: (She’s really cute, and her hair’s gotten a little longer recently. Wearing a gray hooded shirt with black stretch pants, and white walking shoes. She works at home on her computer doing clerical work, and gets paid well enough so she can live in her apartment forever as long as she wants. She’s taking a break from the computer now, and she’s outside walking around looking inside shop windows. She has a small waist bag on, and isn’t carrying that much money inside it. Last night’s dream of Chris really was weird, and they were walking together at night looking at candles and other things in store displays. Something makes her look in one of the store displays, and she sees what she saw in her dream. It’s a beautiful white unicorn, and it’s in its own glass. Staring at it in disbelief, and then someone bumps into her by accident. She turns to see that it’s Chris, and when he meets her eyes, he finds himself staring back at a very stunned Tayla. Unable to move somehow, staring at the actor in astonishment)
CHRIS: (Narrows his eyes at Tayla, recognizing her from somewhere) Do I know you? (Tayla can’t seem to speak, and he smiles a little) Hey – sweetheart – are you all right?
TAYLA: (Can’t help but keep gazing up at Chris in shock) It’s you. It’s really you.
CHRIS: (Shakes his head a little, feeling confused) Where have I seen you before?
TAYLA: (Finds the ability to finally swallow while staring at Chris) I don’t know. I know I saw you in a dream I had last night. We were walking together. Right here. And holding hands.
CHRIS: (Frowns a bit at the cute green eyed girl) Did we know each other? (Feeling curious)
TAYLA: Yeah – I think we did. And it was the tenth dream I’ve had of you, Mac.
CHRIS: (Now he’s really confused at the way she said his nickname “Mac”, because only one of his closest friends call him that) How did you know my nickname was “Mac”? (Feeling tense now)
TAYLA: I didn’t. In the dreams that I have, I call you that. Just wish I knew why though.
CHRIS: (Still feeling very bewildered, because he knows he’s seen Tayla before but doesn’t know or remember where. Tayla decides to start walking away from him, and he catches her by the arm to make her stop. Now Tayla frowns at him, looking puzzled) Where are you going?
