Talulla Line 1) What day is it? Marvin Line 2) It’s Saturday April 15th, 1967. Marvin Line 3) We all got sent back to the time which I originally arrived at. Just like the psychic said. Marvin Line 4) I know Rex already ate. But, I haven’t fed him in 8 months, so it seems like he’s been starving all this time. Marvin puts the food kibble down for his dog to eat. Talulla Line 5) Aww. You must’ve missed him. Marvin Line 6) Of course I did. How could I not? He’s my baby. Calista smiles. Talulla Line 7) For a nepotism baby, your place doesn’t really show it. Marvin laughs. Marvin Line 8) I worked for all of this by myself. This isn’t daddy’s money. Marvin Line 9) I like to keep myself humble that way. Talulla smiles. Talulla Line 10) Gosh. All that walking from today really burned me out. Marvin Line 11) Wanna wash up? Talulla Line 12) Nah, I’m too lazy. I’m gonna hit the hay. Marvin Line 13) Where do you want to sleep? Marvin Line 14) I have a king sized bed. Talulla’s eyes spark up. He shuts the door signifying that Talulla took his bed. Calista Line 15) Where will we be sleeping? Marvin Line 16) We? Calista is surprised. Calista Line 17) Do you wanna sleep separately? Marvin Line 18) You can just sleep on the ground. Calista is shocked. Marvin laughs. Marvin Line 19) I’m kidding. Marvin Line 20) I have a pull out mattress for the couch. Marvin Line 21) My friends often crash at my place drunk. Marvin Line 22) That’s why I take precautions like these. Marvin Line 23) Unless you signified you want to sleep on your own? Calista Line 23) Of course not. I want to be by you. Marvin blushes. Calista Line 24) Does Rex usually sleep with you? Marvin nods his head. Marvin Line 25) Believe it or not, that kid snores and farts like crazy. Calista laughs. Marvin Line 26) He takes up more of the bed than I do! Marvin Line 27) I tuck him in and everything. Marvin Line 28) He even faces his back to me. Calista cracks up. Marvin Line 29) He sleeps like he pays rent for this place. Marvin Line 30) But, he’s my best friend. Marvin Line 31) If anyone’s allowed to do those things. It’s him. Calista admires Marvin. Marvin Line 32) Are you too tired to wash up too? Calista Line 33) You go before me. I’ll take too long. Marvin Line 34) Alright. But if you want… Marvin Line 35) We can take one together to salvage some water. Calista blushes. Marvin laughs. Marvin Line 36) Just kidding. Unless, you really want to. Calista covers her eyes and waves Marvin off from embarrassment. Calista Line 37) Stop blabbering and just hurry up. Marvin gets in his shower. Calista stands up and looks around Marvins place. She notices his pictures and the friends he has up. She then notices a notepad and pen. Line 38) Calista: Let me keep myself occupied since I don’t have a phone to scroll through. Line 39) Calista: I want to write Marvin a letter. But I don’t want it to be too obvious. Line 40) Calista: If he finds this notepad he can read what I have written on it. Calista writes down some stuff during Marvins shower. Marvin calls for Calista. Marvin Line 41) Come over here, Calista! Calista is startled. Calista Line 42) Coming! Line 43) Calista: I’m not finished with the letter though. I hope I can remember to come back to it. Calista comes to the bathroom where Marvin was calling her from. It’s busted wide open and steamy with condensation from the hot shower. Marvin has a towel around his shoulder but is bare up top. Calista covers her eyes. Calista Line 43) Dude. Put something on! Marvin Line 44) Dude? You should be calling me babe! Calista blushes. Marvin Line 45) And what’s so wrong with me being shirtless? Marvin Line 46) I’m your boyfriend after all. This is normal. Calista Line 47) You’re so bold today. I thought you would take things slow. Marvin Line 48) Listen. I’ve liked you ever since the first couple of days that I landed in your place. Marvin Line 49) Then, I realized that I’m also in love with you, around a week ago. Marvin Line 50) Overall, I’ve been at this for many months. Marvin Line 51) And today, I thought I was never gonna see you again. Marvin Line 52) So, pardon me for being so bold. But, I just can’t help myself. Marvin Line 53) I’m not holding back. Marvin walks closer to Calista. She looks flustered. Marvin Line 54) Am I making you uncomfortable? Calista Line 55) No… I’m just not used to this. That’s all. Marvin Line 56) That’ll change. Marvin tucks a piece of Calista’s hair behind her ear. He softly smiles at her. Calista Line 57) What’d you call me for? Marvin Line 58) Right. I wanted to show you how to work the shower. Marvin Line 59) When we first met, I didn't know how to operate the shower and thought maybe you wouldn't either, now that you’re in a similar predicament. Calista Line 60) Ahh. Solid memory. Marvin moves Calista to the shower to show her the knobs. Marvin Line 61) Off the top of your head, do you think you know how to work this? Calista Line 62) Eh. Not really. Marvin sneaks behind Calista to show her how the knobs operate. Calista blushes. Line 63) Calista: He’s so close to me. Line 64) Calista: I can feel the warm air coming out of his nostrils. Line 65) Calista: And his hair slightly grazing my cheek. Marvin Line 66) Okay. So all you do is turn the knob to the right for cold water. And to the left for hot. Marvin Line 67) For medium temperature, just keep it in the middle. Marvin Line 68) Simple enough, right? Calista is a bit distracted from how close Marvin is to her. Marvin Line 69) Calista? Calista Line 70) Y-Yeah. I got that. Thanks. Marvin looks at Calista. He hugs her from behind and snuggles his head into her shoulder. This catches Calista off-guard. Marvin Line 71) I’ve missed you. He kisses Calista’s cheek and heads for the door. Marvin Line 72) Alright, happy showering. Use whatever products. Calista is flustered. Line 73) Calista: We’ve already kissed twice! Why am I still so flustered around him? Line 74) Calista: Let’s see what kinds of products he has? Calista examines the products. Line 75) Calista: At least it's not some 3-in one shampoo. She laughs and gets showered. She finishes up and exits the bathroom to the living room. Marvin is reading some random book. He notices Calista finish. Marvin Line 76) Hey, did you find the shower okay? Marvin notices he didn’t give Calista any clothes. Marvin Line 77) Oh. You must be uncomfortable in that. I should lend you some clothes. Marvin Line 78) I should’ve given Talulla something too, but she passed out. He goes to his room quickly and grabs some clothes. He comes back out but leaves the door open, enough for Rex to go in without him noticing. Then he shuts the door with Rex and Talulla in the same room. Marvin Line 79) How’s this? Calista Line 80) Looks comfy. Marvin sits besides Calista. Calista is confused why Marvin doesn’t sense the mood. He finally gets it. Marvin Line 81) Ah. My bad. Marvin covers his eyes with a pillow and lays face down. Calista Line 82) No peeking! Marvin gasps. Marvin Line 83) What kind of guy do you take me for? Marvin Line 84) I’m upset you think of me in that way? Line 85) Calista: Based on the way he’s been acting all day, there’s no wonder I would say something like this. Calista Line 86) I’m just making sure. Calista finishes getting dressed. Calista Line 87) Kay, I’m done. Marvin sits up right. He’s really disappointed though. Calista Line 88) Huh? I was expecting for these clothes to be bigger on me. Calista notices Marvin's mood. Calista Line 89) What’s with that face? Calista pokes Marvin’s cheek. Calista Line 90) Is it time to be sassy again? Marvin mumbles under his breath. Marvin Line 91) I’m mad you don’t trust me. Calista Line 92) I heard that. Marvin turns his head. Calista Line 93) What makes you think I don’t trust you? Calista Line 94) Because I thought you would look at me change? Calista laughs. Calista Line 95) You’re dramatic. Calista scoots closer to Marvin. Calista Line 96) Marvin. I was just teasing you. Calista Line 97) Face me. Marvin looks at Calista in a mad way. She kisses his cheek softly. Marvin blushes. Calista Line 98) I trust you. Okay? What do I have to do to convince you that? Marvin kisses Calista on the lips. The both of them blush. Marvin Line 99) That was enough to convince me. Line 100) Calista: I was trying to be bold right there. But, how did he still manage to outdo me? End of episode. © 2024 YoshAuthor's Note
