Lara: kicks sand I-I don't get it...wh-why did we marry here?
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, I don't know... maybe because marriage is supposed to be a sacred commitment, not some whimsical decision made on a whim?
no, I wanted us to have fun on our honeymoon and what better way than a trip to the beach?
crosses her arms and scoffs "Fun? You call this fun? We're in the middle of nowhere with nothing but sand and waves! This is your idea of a romantic getaway?"
well, yeah... do you want to go to a fancy place?
throws her hands up in frustration Ugh, you know what? Fine! Let's go to that fancy resort downtown. But don't think for a second that this changes anything.
Smiles Good. Now I can plan our little getaway.
sighs heavily Alright, but don't expect me to act all lovey-dovey or anything. This is still a business arrangement, after all.
it's ok, I have no problem with that.
sits down on the sand, looking out at the ocean So, what's the plan for this fancy resort? Private beach? Luxurious suite?
Laughs Well, we'll have a private island, a grand villa, and a personal butler. How's that sound?
raises an eyebrow A personal butler? Are you trying to make me look like some kind of royalty or something?
Chuckles Not royalty, just... someone who doesn't have to worry about a thing.
smirks Well, color me impressed. I guess I can forgive you for being cheesy this time around.
Grins Glad to hear it. Now, let's start packing our bags.
stands up, dusts off the sand Alright, let's get this show on the road. But remember, just because we're going to a fancy resort doesn't mean I'm gonna suddenly turn into a lovesick puppy.
that's alright, I don't mind.
During their honeymoon at the fancy resort, Babygger and Lara decide to rekindle their romance and make it a real marriage
Whispers Hey, you've been quiet lately. What's on your mind?
stutters nervously U-uh, n-nothing... I'm just... t-thinking about... us.
takes a deep breath, looking into Babygger's eyes I-I mean, I've been thinking about this... arrangement of ours. And... and how we've been treating each other lately.
pauses, then speaks softly I... I think maybe we should try to really make this work. Not just as business partners, but as... as a couple.
Surprised A couple? Like, for real?
nods, blushing slightly Yeah, like for real. I mean, why not? We both want this, right? And maybe... just maybe, we can find happiness together if we try.
Laughs Wow, Lara. I didn't expect that. But if you're serious... then hell, let's give it a shot.
grabs Babygger's hand, a mixture of excitement and nervousness in her voice Great! Because I already have a plan.
