It doesn't sound like you'll have much time for conflict. Here's what you do: just use the end of Romeo and Juliet. [it was written a long long time ago, and so I'm fairly certain no one will remember it] [especially the ending, in any case]
So, in sum, here's what happens: Claire Danes has just taken some fake poison or something, so she's not really dead [actually, I can no longer remember why she did that, but she had a very very good reason] [pretty sure].. then Leonardo DiCaprio comes, and [he's her tragic, ill-fated lover, by the way].. and well, he sees his beloved lying there dead.. [not realizing she was really alive, since I don't think he checked to see that she was really dead all that closely].. and so then HE takes poison, only this time it's FOR REAL.. and so he REALLY dies.. only then Claire wakes up finally [since her fake poison wore off].. and she sees her beloved lying there dead, and [well, first she cries, since she's VERY VERY upset].. and then she takes Leonardo's Glock, and holds it to her head, and.. I'm pretty sure she pulls the trigger, since in the very next shot she's collapsed over Leo looking VERY DEAD.
I hope that helps, and good luck with it!
