"Babe, this is gonna be the best day of your life, I promise." Ellie excitedly pulled you through the gate of the dinosaur museum. You giggled as Ellie's eyes lit up at the sight of the dinosaur exhibition. There were large statues of dinosaurs at the entrance, and towards the back, you could see dinosaur bones encased in display cases. Her grip around your hand tightened and she pointed towards one of the statues. "That's a Stegosaurus. They were herbivorous and lived in the late Jurassic period. Their fossils have been found in North America and Portugal. People used to think they had two brains but that was just a myth that started in the 1870s." Ellie explained "Whoever believed that myth had to be stupid. Two brains? What idiots." You laughed and shook your head at your girlfriend's words, "You would've believed it too" She gasped and pulled away from you, "Are you calling me stupid?"
You shrugged, walking towards a large statue of a T-Rex, "Take it as you want." Ellie decided to ignore your comment as she noticed the dinosaur statue you'd walked up to.
"What's this one, Els?" "You don't know what a Tyrannosaurus Rex is?" She raised an eyebrow.
You rolled your eyes, "I'm giving you the chance to be a nerd, nerd."
Ellie let out a soft "Hmph" before starting her ramble.
"Well, that's a Tyrannosaurus which lived in the Cretaceous period. Their name means 'tyrant lizard' because well, you know, they were cruel and are reptiles. Strangely enough, they aren't considered to be in the same family as lizards, so I have no idea why they're called a lizard."
You hummed, "Why do they have tiny ass arms?"
"It's believed they were used to attack prey that were close to them." Ellie shrugged, "They look pretty stupid with those arms, if you ask me."
You laughed. It did look pretty stupid.
Ellie gasped and ran towards another statue. You assumed it was some water dinosaur due to the large flippers.
"These plesiosaurus are so fucking cool!" Ellie was almost jumping up and down with excitement. "They're called a Liopleurodon which lived in the Jurassic period. They were huge. The biggest one found was 17 meters long. They must have been terrifying. I know I would've shitted my pants if I saw one."
"Ellie, you shit your pants while watching scary TikToks. Everything scares you."
"Oh, okay, whatever." She rolled her eyes, "That was one time. Leave me alone."
It was not, in fact, one time, but you let it go. You'll tease her about it another time.
Ellie spent another three hours explaining facts about each statue in the museum. And you had to admit, it was cute seeing your girlfriend this excited over dinosaurs.
After she had finished ramble about the last dinosaur in the museum, she turned to you with an grin on her face.
"Wasn't that so super fun?" She joyfully asked.
You grinned, kissing her forehead. "It was so super fun watching you geek out."
"Now you can take me to a space museum and listen to me geek out there!"
You laughed, "Another day, baby."
Your brain was not built to take hours of information all at once.
Ellie pouted, but you gave her a quick kiss on the lips, turning her pout into a smile.
She was your little nerdy girl.
