Gina had managed to commandeer the tvs in Mallrats that usually played old episodes of Batman the Animated Series or the Marvel movies, to today play the Friday the 13th movies. She leaned on the counter watching the closet screen to her with a satisfied smile. “I hope someday someone refers to me as a death curse. That’s actually my life goal.”

[mickey-argent]

“I mean that’s a pretty lofty goal but I’ll make sure to spread the word if you go before me.” Leaning back against the counter with a pack of M&M’s in his hand he watched the a camper being killed on the screen. “The legend of Gina Ross, the mall rat butcher.”

“Aw, that was so cute and on trend, given how big Star Wars is again.” Jane pinched at her cousin’s cheeks, he might have been taller than her now but he was still her baby. “Hit me with another.”

[mickey-argent]

“If you liked that one you’ll like this one too. Yo mama so beautiful, her pic is in the dictionary under "beautiful"—and she's not even having a good hair day.” Mickey rubbed the cheek he pinched before throwing an arm around his cousins shoulder, pulling her close.

Going to start a new tradition of telling nice ‘yo mama’ jokes on Mothers Day.

Yo Mama's so wise, that Yoda texts her for advice.

“If I have to answer the phone to someone singing ‘Say No More, Mon Amour’ one more time I’m going to end someone.”

[mickey-argent]

“I'll bring my lovin' right to your front door, here I come baby je'ta dour.” Mickey sings into the end of his broom from the opposing end of the counter. “Rex Manning day is my favorite holiday after Christmas so maybe I should answer the phones for a little while.” 

[is-that-a-fact-delilah-floyd]

“Oh yeah, because everyone wants to talk to someone who says bitchin’. And don’t so ‘well I’d want to talk to you’ because you’re not like other people.” Leaning into Mickey a little more, she closed her eyes and smiled. “That joke is older than the joke I made… well played, sir. Well played.” Shaking her head slightly, Delilah couldn’t help but laugh. “Really? Because I like the hair, though I’m biased so take that opinion for what it is. I just need to know because… otherwise that tattoo I got would end up looking pretty stupid,” she blurted out the last part as quickly as possible before looking up at Mickey. “I’m feeling some kind of iced coffee. What do you think?”

[mickey-argent]

“I personally don’t want to talk to anybody who doesn’t say bitchin’.” Smiling he pecked her quickly, his fingers running through the ends of her hair. “I think that one was much funnier, you’re getting better at this comedy thing.” Mickey ran a hand back through his hair and grinned. “I’m glad that somebody likes it-- did you just say tattoo?” His face instantly lights up and he’s giving her sides a playful squeeze. “I’m not feeling any kind of iced coffee.. I’m feeling you, and I’m dying to see this tattoo you’ve gotten.” 

[is-that-a-fact-delilah-floyd]

“You haven’t, but I kind of got the impression you were feeling pretty good today. All the smiling was a dead giveaway.” There was a little bit of a panic inside of her on what she’d done. Even with Dakota’s encouragement she worried. “Okay, that does sound like a pretty bitchin’ day. Yes, I just said bitchin’. Please judge me as much as you want. Oh, you’re sitting next to the prettiest girl in Rosewood? God, she’s going to be so pissed when she comes back and sees I’m sitting in her spot,” she laughed, unable to make the obvious joke. “I’m sorry, but I had to. You can’t just set me up like that and not expect me to run with it. So… are you still curious why I asked if blue was still your favorite color of did Dakota already tell you?”

[mickey-argent]

“I think you should incorporate bitchin’ into your vocabulary more often.” Smiling he pulled her closer and gave her shoulder a gentle squeeze. “It was so funny I forgot to laugh.” But the smile he wore was enough to show that he  was still perfectly amused. “I should probably set you up for better jokes.” Mickey’s head tilted curiously to the side as he rubbed the back of his head. “The only thing Dakota told me today was that I needed a haircut. I’m still totally out of blue on why you needed to know my favorite color is blue, but I’m curious as hell now.” 

[mickey-argent]

“Have I told you how divinely happy I am yet today?” Smiling he puts his arm around her shoulder and pulls her against him, chin leaning down against the top of her head. “’Cause I really am.. today was a truly excellent day. I found twenty dollars on the sidewalk, I had Jimmy John’s for lunch and now I’m sitting next to the prettiest girl in Rosewood.” 

[mickey-argent]

[text] Because if it wasn't I'd feel pretty stupid-ish right now.

[text] Please tell me you haven’t painted the whole apartment blue!!!

[mickey-argent]

[text] Blue is still your favorite color, right?

[text] Correct blue is still my favorite color. Why????

[is-that-a-fact-delilah-floyd]

“We’re only three months into the year, Mickey,” she murmured, pushing a few strands of wet hair from his forehead as they bobbed up and down in the water. “But you’re not wrong. This trip… this year so far…” Trailing off, she tread water for a moment. “This year’s amazing because of you. You make everything better.”

[mickey-argent]

“Well the first three months has been amazing.”He grinned, pressing his forehead against hers as he treads water and keeps him close. “Y’know it’s funny that you say that because I could have sworn the reason this year was going good so far was because of you.” 

[is-that-a-fact-delilah-floyd]

Watching Mickey take off running toward the water, Delilah kicked off her sandals, stripped off her sundress and left them behind on the sand as she followed him into the water in just her bra and panties. The water hit her feet and she dove in as soon as she’d waded in deep enough.

[mickey-argent]

The Spanish water was warmed from the sun and he was hooked onto Delilah as soon as she surfaced beside her. He’s pressed his lips to side of her neck, legs kicking between hers as he kept swimming. “Alright so how much fun is this trip though right? And we have Oslo this Summer. This is the best year of my life, I’ve never been happier than this.” 

[is-that-a-fact-delilah-floyd]

A little bit of a blush bloomed on her cheeks for no reason she could understand and Delilah couldn’t stop smiling, vaguely hoping she didn’t look completely manic to Mickey. “You had me at swimming, but then you said sand castle and… swimming first then sand castle?”

[mickey-argent]

“We can do both of them.” He’s smiling back at her, she makes it so easy have fun anywhere they go. Leaning in he gives the apple of her cheek a gently pinch before running off towards the water, throwing his shirt off and kicking his shoes back behind him. 

[is-that-a-fact-delilah-floyd]

“I don’t either, but Ibiza is known for it and I figured when in Ibiza do as the… Ibizians?” Laughing, she craned she head up and kissed his cheek before relaxing against him as they walked. “You know… here is good. Unless there’s something you wanted to do. Since it’s your vacation too.”

[mickey-argent]

“We had another week and all to do that.” Leaning down he kissed her back, his fingers pushing her hair back over her shoulder. “I think that hanging out here is a perfect idea, babe. Do you want to go for a bit of a swim or just dick around and make a sand castle or something?”

[is-that-a-fact-delilah-floyd]

“You do make a very convincing argument in favor of going,” she smiled, leaning over to rest her head on Mickey shoulder as she spoke. “Though… do you know what good electronic music sounds like versus bad?”

[mickey-argent]

“I don’t know anything about electronic music.” He laughed, putting his arm around her shoulder as the two walked down the beach. “Do you know where you want to go, to the club or back to the room? Or we can stay here.” 

[is-that-a-fact-delilah-floyd]

“Okay, so my Spanish is a little rusty, but I think the directions I got include traversing a lake which… that’s too far to go just for some probably good electronic music.”

[mickey-argent]

“I'm up for it if you are. I mean it’s not like we’re going to be coming back here anytime soon we might as well give it a go. Plus, it might be cool to get out on the boat at night.”

[mickey-argent]

[text] I've looked at too many apartments online. [text] It's all a mishmash of wood flooring, floor to ceiling windows and overhead lighting. [text] I think the cat and dog are plotting to overthrow me.

[text] Did any of them come with a jacuzzi tub? 

[ginasomethingbetter]

Awesome. Thanks for that appetizing mental image. I think I threw up a little.

[mickey-argent]

Hey buddy anything for you. Want one of my curly fries?
