She thought about what she should do, and an idea hit her. She got up, walked past her desk, and headed for Atlantis's movie stash. She walked through a set of halls, and found the door marked "RECREATION ROOM". Elizabeth pushed the door open, and walked over to the small shelf of DVD's. "The Princess Bride sounds good," she thought.
She then turned off the lights, put the DVD in the DVD player, pressed play, and jumped onto the couch in front of the tv.
"My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father prepare to die," Elizabeth heard someone say behind her, and she jumped.
"John, I didn't hear the door open."
"Let's just say you can call me Bond, James Bond." Elizabeth let out a small giggle.
"Well James, care to join me?"
"Don't mind if I do."
John sat down next to Elizabeth.
"So, Princess Bride?"
"Yep"
"Classic"
"When I was 12 I watched this movie almost everynight for a month. I had a huge crush on Cary Elwes, and loved the sword fighting."
"Really?" John asked.
"Yes." Elizabeth blushed and laughed.
"Now, if you are done making fun of me, I would like to watched the rest of the movie!" she said trying to sound annoyed.
"Alrighty...Mrs.Elwes."
Elizabeth just rolled her eyes, and punched him on the shoulder.
The reast of the movie was watched in silence.
They sat in silence as the movie credits scrolled across the screen.
"Another," John asked.
"Sure"
"I pick this time, though."
He walked over to the shelf, and looked at it as if he was reading a very hard book.
"Need any assistance, John?"
"No, No I'm fine"
"ah ha"
He walked over to the DVD player and put the disk in.
"I think you'll enjoy this one," He said as he gave Elizabeth a funny look. They sat on the couch waiting for the movie to start. The beginning credits rolled, and then the title.
"Remember the Titans! Elizabeth shouted.
John turned to face her, and gave her a HUGE grin.
"My favorite!" he said as if he were a crazed four year old.
She rolled her eyes, but continued to watch as the movie unfolded.
What is it with Men and football, she asked herself.
They watched the movie in silence. Elizabeth looked over at John every few minutes, and she thought he looked like a kid in a
candy store. She smiled to herself, thinking that he looked quite cute when he looked like that. Even though she liked that
John was having a good time, she had to admit that the movie definetley wasn't her style. So, she was very excited, but very
sad as the credits rolled down the screen. They watched until the very end, sitting in silence.
Elizabeth sighed and turned the tv off.
"Wow!" she said looking at her watch. "It's past midnight."
John yawned, "I guess we lost track of the time."
"Yeah"
Call it a night?" he asked.
"Ok," she said a bit disappointed.
The two friends got up and started to walk towards the door.
"Hey Liz?"
"Yes, John," she said through as huge yawn.
"We should do this again, you know, just the two of us hanging out."
Elizabeth smiled. "That would be great."
"Alright, how 'bout next week same time, same place."
"Perfect."
"See ya then."
"Of course, James."
They bothed laughed and headed to their quarters, each going the opposite way. Elizabeth walked down the hall thinking of his boyish smile, and messed up hair, and John thinking about how she would react, and the way she would laugh at his choice for a movie next time.
