Inspired by @ellaphant_, who made a cute suggestion that I changed a little. :)

A: "It's a bit cramped in here."

E: "I'll push you out if you keep complaining."

A: "But it is!"

E: "Aeryn, we have found possibly the most high-tech tree house in existence, it has a detachable roof!"

A: "So?"

E: "It has all this and you're complaining that there isn't enough room?"

A: "...yes."

E: "Here, I'll move over a bit..."

A: "Better, I guess. But if we're sleeping in here we're going to end up moving around a bit."

E: "I don't care, you're the one that's complaining about everything."

A: "Sorry. Um, it's a bit cold."

E: "Arghh. Okay, come here."

A: "Mmm, that's better."

E: "You're like a cuddly little kitten, Aeryn."

A: "Thanks, I guess?"

E: "Hey, look up, there's so many stars! See if you can find any shapes!"

A: "Um, I see, aww, I can see a heart."

E: "Where?"

A: "There!"

E: "I see!"

A: "Maybe that's the constellation for love?"

E: "I don't think that's how constellations work."

A: "Spoilsport."

E: "..."

A: "Eli, what does it feel like to be in love?"

E: "I - um - I don't really know, er-"

A: "Oh."

E: "I guess it would be...warm and comfortable. You'd feel...safe with that person, together you'd be untouchable. You'd trust them completely...butterflies and all that."

A: "Oh."

E: "I don't really know though, that might just be-"

A: "That sounds nice."

E: "Yeah."
