The guys arrive at Joe's house and Joe welcomes them all inside.

Q: "I brought some movies."

Joe: "Ayeeee, you brought Silent Hill!"

Q: "Yup, you want to watch it?"

Joe: "Hell yeah!"

Murr: "I'll put it in."

Sal walks over to them, sipping on his soda.....

Sal: "So what we watching?"

Murr: "Silent Hill."

Sal: "OH HELL NO! You guys know I'm scared of this kind of stuff!"

Joe: "Oh, don't worry, I'll protect you if you get scared, haha."

Joe says to himself in his head: "Omg, did I really just say that?! What's wrong with me?!"

Sal: "Ok, fine.....But, we are never watching horror movies again ok?"

Q: "Fine, it's agreed."

They all sit on the couch and the movie begins.

The movie is only 20 minutes in when Sal is already getting scared.

Inside Joe's head: "Awww look how cute he is when he's scared........OMFG WHAT AM I THINKING!!!"

Inside Sal's head: "Joe was really nice when he said he'd protect me.....I wonder why he said that.
*Sal stares at Joe for a short while*
Wow, look how Brave he is. Look how beautiful his eyes look in the dark as the TV light lights up his eyes.....He's so handsom- What the heck am I saying! I mean, this is Joe I'm talking about......he's been my best friend for so long! What's this feeling inside me?! It's almost like I lik-"

Sal's thoughts are interrupted when a loud scream from the movie sound the room.

______________________________________

It's been a while and the movie has just ended.

Q: "Hey Sal, you still alive?"

Sal: "B-barley...."

Joe: "It's ok, it's just a movie."

Joe pats Sal on the back.

Murr: "Hey Joe?"

Joe: "What is it?

Murr: "Well, since Bessy and the kids are gone, I was wondering if we could all spend the night."

Q: "Ha! What, like a sleepover?"

Murr: "Well, yeah. If that's ok with Joe. And It's 11:37pm anyways, so we might as well just stay."

Joe: "Um.....yeah I guess it's ok."

Murr: "YAY! Let me go by my house and get some of my things."

Q: "Yeah, I'm gonna need to do that too."

Joe: "Ok. That's not a problem.
Sal, don't you need to get some of your things too?"

Sal: "Nah, I'm good."

Q: "Well, then me and Murr will be on our way to get our stuff. Brb."

Joe: "Bye guys...."

Q and Murr leave the house and head home to get their stuff.

Joe: "So.........I guess it's just you and me then."

Sal: "Uh Yeah,I guess so."

Silence fills the room and it becomes akward and minutes pass.....

Sal: "Um. Hey, listen, thank you for uh, saying you'll protect me and for being so nice."

Joe: "Oh, it's no problem. I just never realized how much you mean to me and how much I like you."

Inside Joe's head: "OMG WTF DID I JUST SAY?!!! I WASN'T EVEN THINKING!!!! OMG!!! OMG!!! OMG!!!OMG........I'M IN LOVE WITH SAL!!!"

Inside Sal's head: "OMG WHAT DOES HE MEAN BY THAT!!! AND I LIKE HIM TOO!!! OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M IN LOVE WITH JOE!!! There goes that feeling again......"

Joe: "I-i-i"

Joe is interrupted when Q and Murr open the door carrying their stuff inside...

Q: "So, I uh....I had to bring one of my cats because she got scared, so yeah....."

Sal: "Oh that's just great!"

Murr: "Why do you guys look so guilty of something?"

Q: "Yeah, you look like you just seen a ghost or something."

Joe: "Uh, it's nothing."

Murr: "Ok....."
