Chapter Ninety-Five: Take Me Home To My Heart

"Will the real Slim Shady please stand up?"
"That's one way to wake me up." You said, getting out of bed and yawning as you stretched.
"Why do these diamonds keep falling off?" You asked, looking down at the bracelet. "There's only five left now."
"It's okay." Mark said, wrapping his arms around you. "Because guess whose turn it is to pick today's activity?"
"Let me guess." You said. "Slim Shady?"
"I wish." He said. "But no. It's my turn."
"What are we doing then?" You asked.
"Simple and classic." He said. "Dinner and a movie."
"Mark, it's fucking ten in the morning." You said.
"Well, actually it's probably not so simple and classic." He said. "We go see a movie and then I have a surprise for you afterwards."
"What is it?" You asked.
"Well, if I told you, it wouldn't be much of a surprise, now would it?" He asked.
"I suppose not." You said. "Do I get to pick the movie?"
"Nope." He said. "You got to pick what we did yesterday so it's only fair that I get to pick all of what we do today. But don't worry, you get to pick what we do tomorrow."
"Well, I've got work tomorrow." You said. "So we might not be able to do anything tomorrow."
"Don't worry." He said. "We'll find a way."
"How long are we going to keep doing random activities like this?" You asked. "We can't keep this up forever. Don't get me wrong. I would love to keep doing little things like this forever but we can't."
"It won't go on forever." He said, trying to reassure you. "I promise."
"Okay." You said. "Now get out. I've got to get dressed."
"Are you kidding me right now?" He asked. "I can't watch the woman that I got pregnant get dressed? I watched you get undressed so what makes the difference?"
"I hope the baby's a boy." You said, going over to your closet and trying your best to ignore him.
"You're mean." He said. "I'll leave. Hope that makes you happy."
"It does." You said, going through your T-shirts. "I have no idea what to wear."
"The Pikachu shirt." He said just before closing the door. "You look cute in that one."

After you were ready to go, you met up with Mark in the living room.
"You look cute." He said. "But you always look good, no matter what you wear."
"Stop it." You said, starting to feel yourself blush. "Can we just go see a movie now?"
"Of course." He said, hugging you. "Now, I've got a great pick for a movie."
"What is it?" You asked as you headed out to the car with him.
"You'll find out when we get there." He said.

"Two tickets for "Poltergeist" please." Mark said when you two had reached the movie theater.
"I never agreed to this!" You said as he grabbed the tickets and put some money on the counter. He handed you a ticket and you held it in your hand.
"I didn't think you would." He said. "Besides, it was either that or "Insidious: Chapter 3" and I did a coin flip to determine which one I took you to and "Poltergeist" was the winner."
"You act like you're not even scared." You said.
"Oh, I'm scared out of my mind." He said. "Don't be surprised if I shit my pants in there." He grabbed the large popcorn that he ordered and you grabbed the large drinks.
"I'll keep you safe." You said, reassuring him.
"No." He said. "I'm the one who should be keeping you safe."
"Whatever you say, Superman." You said as you took your seats. The movie was just about to begin and you put your drink in the cup holder and the popcorn right in between you and Mark.
"Come here." He said, holding his arms out. You accepted those arms and began eating some of the popcorn.

"Holy shit." Mark said at the end of the movie.
In the end, you both had let the popcorn fall to the ground twice. Your area was covered in popcorn and even some of your drink had managed to find its way into the ground.
"That's all you have to say?" You asked as you walked out of the theater and out into the car.
"You didn't say anything." He pointed out.
"True." You said.
Just then, Mark pulled over into someone's driveway.
"Is this the surprise?" You asked. "Because I have no idea who this person is."
Suddenly, he put a blindfold over you.
"What the hell is this for?" You asked.
"You'll see in about two hours." He said. You felt the car backing up and beginning to drive to wherever Mark was going.

After a while, you heard your car door opening and someone dragged you out of there and into wherever Mark took you.
"I'm serious." You said. "What the hell is going down?"
"It's a surprise." An unfamiliar woman's voice said. "We can't tell you anything."
"Someone get her into the dress!" Another unfamiliar voice said.
"Dress?" You asked in confusion. "Can't I change into it myself?"
"You could." The woman said. "But it's spoil the surprise. So just let us do it."
Before you could protest any longer, you found yourself changing into a dress of some sort.
"Gorgeous." The other unfamiliar voice said. It was another woman. "I love it."
"Now get some make-up on her." The other woman said. "I'll take care of her hair!"

A while later, you found that you were covered in make-up and your (H/C) hair was held up by a hair tie and red roses.
"You're going to have to take the blindfold off in order for us to do the mascara." The woman who had been ordering people around to get stuff done said. "So do me a favor and don't open your eyes, no matter how tempting it may be."
"Got it." You said as she removed the blindfold. A couple of moments later, you felt the brush on your eyelashes. The woman did a few swipes on each eye before she felt satisfied.
"Now, we're not at the surprise quite yet." She said. "So keep your eyes closed. Someone will be watching to make sure you keep them closed. I would put the blindfold back on, but it would ruin your mascara and I really don't want to do that."
"Okay." You said.
"Take my arm." She said. "It might be hard for you to walk."
You were confused until you actually started to walk. Instead of Converse, you were now wearing heels. While they weren't the tallest heel, they were still a bit hard to walk in. But that was mostly due to the fact that you can't ever remember the last time that you even wore heels in the first place.

You heard the sound of a car door opened and, with some help, managed to get into it. You still kept your eyes closed, not wanting to hear the wrath of either women.
"I know you can't see right now but you look gorgeous." The other woman who's done all the make-up and such said. "He's going to be blown away when he sees you."
"Where is he?" You asked. You knew exactly who "he" was. Besides, there really wasn't any other "he" that she could be talking about anyway.
"He's making his way to the location right now." She said. "He had to get some things ready too."
"Oh." You said. "I'm looking forward to it then."

You didn't know exactly how much time had passed, but you soon heard your car door opening.
"Take my hand." The other woman who didn't sit next to you said. "I'll help you out."
You extended your hand and she grabbed it. She pulled you out slowly and carefully and you managed to get out of the car. You heard its door slamming behind you.
"Keep you eyes closed a little bit longer." She said as she led you somewhere. "You've been really good about that but just a little bit longer."
After a few moments, she said, "Okay. You can open them."
You did so and the first thing you saw was a giant cruise ship.
"You ready to get married?" The woman asked.
