Calista and Marvin head back to their place. They hold hands and look happy and go lucky. They enter their place and Talulla is confused. Talulla Line 1) So, now you guys are good? What the heck is going on? They get ready for bed together. Talulla Line 2) Marvin, I feel bad that you keep letting me use your bed. Just sleep in it. I’m fine with the pull-out mattress. Marvin smiles. Marvin Line 3) I want you to be comfortable, Talulla. Talulla Line 4) I’m sure I’ll be fine with the other mattress. Tallulla lays on it and gives a uncomforting face. Marvin and Calista notice. Marvin Line 5) You don’t look comfortable. Talulla sighs. Talulla Line 6) Yeah, I guess you’re right. Talulla Line 7) How can you guys sleep on this thing? It feels like a pile of bricks. Calista Line 8) Comfort doesn't matter, it's about the person there for you to make you feel comfortable. Calista hugs Marvin from behind and rests her face on his shoulder. Talulla irks. Talulla Line 9) You guys are cringe. Calista Line 10) Don’t be a hater, go sleep on your king sized mattress. Talulla Line 11) Marvin? The bed is a king? Marvin Line 12) Well, duh. I’m a king. Talulla heads out. Talulla Line 13) I’m going to sleep. Talulla gives Marvin and Calista a double take. She gives them a mischievous look. Talulla Line 14) Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do. She backs away creepishly. And points her fingers on them. After she leaves. Marvin and Calista stare at each other. Calista Line 15) It’s ironic she says that because she would do something even more outrageous. Marvin smiles. They tuck into bed and Marvin props his head up. Marvin Line 16) What do you want to do tomorrow? Calista Line 17) Gosh, today’s been such a long day, I haven’t even thought of anything. Marvin teases Calista. Marvin Line 18) Hah. And I wonder why? Calista puts a pillow over Marvins face. Calista Line 19) Ah, but you’re right. I’ll take full responsibility. Calista Line 20) So, then YOU think of something for us to do. Calista Line 21) I’ve officially run out of ideas. Marvin gets the pillow off his face and sits to ponder. Marvin Line 22) I have an idea. Actually. Many ideas. Calista Line 23) So, are you gonna tell me? Marvin Line 24) Just wait until tomorrow to find out. Marvin turns his back. Calista creeps behind him. Calista Line 25) I can’t wait. She cuddles his back and they head to bed. Rex comes in between them. And cuddle him together. Next morning comes around. The day is Friday April 21 1967. They go out somewhere where Marvin takes them. Marvin keeps Calista’s eyes closed. He opens them to some bikes. Calista is shocked. Calista Line 26) Is this why you gave me comfy shoes? Marvin nods his head. Calista Line 27) I didn’t take you for the outdoorsy type. Marvin Line 28) But, I took you outside a couple days ago. Calista Line 29) Touche. So, where are we biking to? Marvin Line 30) The top of a hill of course. Calista Line 31) We’re going uphill? Marvin Line 32) Oh, come on. Going uphill is the best. Plus the view will be worth it. Calista Line 33) I thought we were relaxing, now we’re doing a whole workout? Calista Line 34) Is this why you're so ripped? Marvin Line 35) Last one there’s a rotten egg. Marvin gets on and heads out immediately. Calista Line 36) Are we racing? Marvin speeds up. Calista gets on and follows him. They go on this route. Line 37) Calista: I’m gonna be all sweaty after this. Calista Line 38) Hey, Marvin can you ride without handle bars? Marvin Line 39) I’m not a superstar at everything. Calista Line 40) Are we almost there yet? Marvin Line 41) You’re the one that agreed for me to choose the date. Calista Line 42) You’re right, but jeez. Calista and Marvin enjoy the views around them. They eventually reach the top of the hill Marvin wanted Calista to see. Calista is exhausted and sweaty. Marvin Line 43) We finally made it. Calista Line 44) Oh, thank goodness. Marvin and Calista get off their bikes and Marvin shows them the amazing view. Marvin Line 45) Take a look for yourself. Calista is amazed from the view. Calista Line 46) Wow, it’s so beautiful up here. Who’d known this was New Jersey. Marvin Line 47) So, was it worth it? Calista Line 48) Well… Yeah, I guess it was. Marvin smiles and puts his arm over Calista. She wiggles herself out of it. Marvin Line 49) What’s the deal? Calista Line 50) It’s just we’re all sweaty. Marvin Line 51) So, what? It’s natural. Calista starts laughing. Calista Line 52) You did not just say that. Marvin gets himself on Calista but she keeps pushing him off. Calista Line 53) So, what if it’s natural? It’s gross. Marvin Line 54) Are you a germaphobe? Calista Line 55) Who isn’t? Marvin laughs. Calista Line 56) Let’s go downhill already. It’s the best part. Marvin Line 57) Yeah, you’re right. Calista quickly gets on. Calista Line 58) I’m racing you. Marvin Line 59) You’re getting a head start so it’s cheating. Calista Line 60) I’m already a rotten egg. Cut me some slack. Plus, you did the same thing earlier. Marvin Line 61) Just wait. Let’s put a bet on it. Calista Line 62) You think you’re gonna win? Marvin Line 63) Let’s see. What happens if either of us wins? Calista Line 64) If either of us wins, the loser has to give them a massage. Calista Line 65) I’ll be sore after this, so it’s worth it. Calista twirls her arm. Marvin Line 66) You automatically think you’ll win? Calista Line 67) Well yeah, I have to put myself in that winner mindset. Marvin Line 68) And if either of us loses? Calista Line 69) The winner decides a dare for them to do. Marvin Line 70) Alright then, the bets on. But, be prepared to do something daring, because I’m gonna win. Calista Line 71) Don’t go easy on me. I want a challenge. Marvin Line 72) Fine, on your marks. Marvin Line 73) Get set… Go! They start riding and head downhill. Calista is in the lead at the moment. They finish the hill and Calista wins the race. Calista upstages Marvin. Calista Line 74) How about that? Marvin Line 75) I let you win. Calista Line 76) Just admit it. I actually won. Calista Line 77) Don’t be a sore loser. Accept your defeat. Marvin Line 78) Only if you hug my sweaty self properly. Calista shrieks. Marvin Line 79) Come on. Don’t you want to hear me say it? Calista hesitates. She eventually gives in and hugs sweaty Marvin. Calista Line 80) It’s less on you and more on me. I don’t want you to see me all sweaty and gross. Marvin Line 81) Oh, you’re dramatic. Calista Line 82) So, say it. Marvin Line 83) Fine. You won fair and square. Calista gets giddy in victory. Calista Line 84) I better get the best massage in the world. Marvin Line 85) So, what’s the dare I have to do? Calista Line 86) You’ll see when we get home. I want to take a shower. They get home and shower up. Marvin Line 87) What’s it gonna be Calista? Calista Line 88) I’m gonna give you a makeover. Calista Line 89) And we’re gonna go to dinner like that. Marvin’s face goes blank. Calista Line 90) Aww. Does that sound too harsh? I won’t do it if you don’t want me to. Calista hugs Marvin and puts herself cheek to cheek with him. Marvin Line 91) That’s alright. It’s only fair. I want to see what you’ll do. Calista Line 92) Are you sure? Marvin nods his head and Calista kisses him on the cheek. She starts to do his makeup and styles his hair a certain way. After she finishes she shows Marvin’s makeover on the mirror. He bursts out laughing. He grabs the mirror and takes a good look at himself. Marvin Line 93) How exactly is this daring? Calista Line 94) You don’t think so? Marvin Line 95) I thought you were gonna give me clown makeup. Calista Line 96) I was contemplating it, but realized that might be too brutal. Calista Line 97) So, what do you think? Marvin Line 98) I think I look beautiful. Calista Line 99) You look better than me. Calista Line 100) You have the perfect face for this. Calista Line 101) Thick eyebrows, long eyelashes, plump lips, swooped cat eyes. Calista Line 102) I think you were born for this moment. The both of them laugh. Marvin Line 103) I think you’re right. Calista Line 104) For the cherry on top. You have to wear this. Calista pulls out an outfit for Marvin to wear. They show up to dinner wearing their outfits and the host is surprised. Marvin Line 105) Table for two please. Host Line 106) R-Right this way. They sit at their spot and have dinner. End of episode. © 2024 YoshAuthor's Note
