The Neverland Inn : One-Shot Collection

NL Movie Night: S2E8

"Okay...I'm not eating until we find something.." Faith yawned in boredom as Shania and Dee scrowled through Hulu.

The t.v. in the west den illuminted the whole space and Dee tapped her chin thinking,
"Did we ever finish P.S. I Love You?"
Shania rolls her eyes and she says,
"The lead actress got on my nerves. It was insufferable..."
Dee clicked further and Faith pokes at a broccoli sprout with her chopsticks as it fell around the take out chinese box. She sees the list scroll further and says,
"There's always The Notebook.."
Dee groans and says,
"This mascara is $40 on clearance, don't feel like sobbing.."
Shania tossed a popcorn kernel in the air attempting to catch it and she says,
"Evan Peters is on The Tonight Show..."

Faith looks over her glasses asking,
"Who's that?"
Shania bugs her eyes  and Dee almost turns her head around like a barn owl.
"WHO'S EVAN PETERS?!"
They squawked.

Faith blinks quickly wondering what she's done and Dee pulls out her phone,
"He's one of the main actors on American Horror Story.." she taps around on his bio page from Google and she hands it over. Faith squints and looks at the blonde, young actor and Shania fans herself looking over her shoulder.

"Okay...." Faith smiles now intrigued, "Okay... I can see that.. alright.." she nods giggling but mentions,
"You guys let me know when Bruno Mars is on The Tonight Show though, okay? That boy is gonna be my baby daddy, lemme tell you."

Dee giggles and says, "You like Bruno? He is pretty cute I guess..."

"Like you don't have a celeb crush, Dee?"
She shrugs still being distracted by Hulu and she mutters,
"I guess Channing Tatum is kinda cute.."

The two girls rolls their eyes and Faith argues at that overrated candidate,
"That's old news. What celeb do you like, that 4 million other desperate, adolescent girls don't like?"

Dee sat down the remote and she hid her true answer as she turned away. Shania and Faith pry until Dee blushes scarlet red.
She shook with comical anticipation and she blurts,
"Leo DiCaprio was a fucking babe in the nineties!!"

The two girls squeal in agreement and Shania dives towards the remote screaming,
"We have Titanic on here!!!"

Faith sets aside her take out box and she stutters laughing, joining them in the floor,
"No! NO!! Cry Baby! Cry Baby with young Johnny Depp!"

"We're making a folder! Lets put all of this into a folder!" Shania laughs getting the remote and she changes the name at the top,
"Any suggestions?" She asks and Faith chuckles muttering,
"Snacktime, cause Johnny Depp is a snack!"

They all laugh and Shania changes the folder name barely being able to type in her laughing fit.
They find Cry Baby and before hitting play Michael appears in the door and he asks curious,
"What are you guys screaming about?"

"MICHAEL.." They all screamed in embarrassed terror and they hide the Hulu screen. Faith goes back to eating her Chinese innocently and Michael sits,
"Oh are we watching movies? I want in. What are we watching?"

Michael sees the Hulu window open and he says,
"Did you guys make a Hulu playlist?"

They all scramble infront of the t.v. hiding their girly folder name and they begin to play it off. They stood unsure why they were hiding but it seemed humiliating for Michael to see their celebrity crushes.
Michael squints then he brings his hands up. He seperates them in mid air, making the girls part aside supernaturally and he reads the top.
"Wha-.........snacktime?"

The girls all blush and Michael makes a unentertained face and he spits,
"You guys got it bad, for Johnny Depp right?"

They all feel the tension build entirely around them and they whistle innocent.
"Oh what a sell out. That guy will do any movie you cast him in. Pfft.."

Michael continues on his diss parade and the girls hush him,
"I mean...he did the pirates movie pretty good."

Michael rolls his eyes, "Well it's certainly no wonder as to why the ride at Disney Land is haunted. What else is on here?"

He grabs the remote and Titanic was next on the list. Leonardo DiCaprio.  Dee blushed until Michael scoffed with a crinkled nose,
"This is horrible..."

Shania laughs at Michael's disgust expression and he sets down the remote,
"Now what's wrong with Leo?" Dee calls out and Michael shrugs,
"Never said there was."

"YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO." They spit and Michael sits with arms sassily crossed.

He floated mid air behind the coach and Faith snickers under her breath.
She smacked her lips laughing louder as she picked up on something.
"Miiikkkeee..."

Michael squints his eyes hateful and he looks to her coldly,
"What are you on about?"

"Oh nothing. Just your jar of strawberry jelly over there.."

He looks confused and he scans rheir faces that only got more clever by the second. Dee giggles and Shania sings,
"Peanut butter and jealous..."

Michael rolls his eyes and he sets his feet back to the floor,
"Oh please. Me be jealous? Okay."
He left the room in an almost sulking manner and Faith shakes her head smiling,
"That's jealousy if I've ever seen it."

"He knows we love him." Dee says and they begin the movie. The room was uncomfortably quiet but the girls tried to put Michael's tantrum out of their mind for a spell, in the sake of their movie.

Starting credits begin to roll until they were loudly interrupted by a noise. It sounded like a smack against the stair steps. Repeated smacks. Shania rolls her entire head and she mutters,
"You can't be serious."

They let the credits roll and they go to the stair well. A slinky was flopping down each step then would float smoothly back up to the top. Then repeat.

The girls all smiled and Faith crouches down, catching the slinky on its metallic rebound at the bottom.
She carries it to the top with the girls on her heels.

They sit around the top step in a crowd and Michael formed in the center of their huddle. He came to vision and he snarks raising his brow,
"Excuse me? Am I bothering your man candy?"

Faith purses her lip and her head bobbed sassy,
"Boy!" She slung the slinky into his arms and she argues,
"Lemme ask you something?"

Michael listens impatient and she begins,
"Did we move into Leo DiCaprio's house?"

Michael scans his eyes away avoiding the argument and she spits further,
"I'll wait!"

He scoffs and mutters softly, "No."

"Did we turn Johnny Depp's villa into a bed and breakfast? For all his millions of fans that love him dearly?"
Dee asked with a tone.
Michael smiled a little wider and he says,
"Well no.."

"Then shut your singin' trap!" Shania butted in and Michael let out a high pitched laugh.

The girls all hugged him and Faith pleaded in their squeeze,
"We love you, Michael. My god, what else do you need? A freaking river dance?"

Michael giggles and he jokes, "If you're willing-"

"Shut up!" They said playful and they leaned in to his shoulder,
"Michael those guys are store brand product compared to you. We would never put someone infront of you. You know this."

He got quiet to gather words and he finally said in suspense,
"Good. Because you girls are mine. And I'll be the totallity of envious if anyone else gets this kind of loyalty outta you."

They all smiled and he hugged them again. Michael was the three girls' everything and he had to understand. He urged them to run back to their movie and Dee leaned down quickly. While trying to kiss his cheek, he disappeared into thin air and a echoey voice says,
"You'll have be quicker than that!"

"Leo DiCaprio would let me!"

"Now that's unfair!"
