No More Lonely Nights
By: Nellie Valverde

Situation: A couple has spent their first night together and it was...really interesting.

Jack: Well, good morning.

Demi: Good morning.

Jack: Did you sleep well?

Demi: Um, yeah.

Jack: Um? Have any doubts?

Demi: Well, do you want to be completely honest?

Jack: Yeah actually, I think that's a good idea.

Demi: Well I slept as well as I could having to listen to your snoring. Not that it's bad, it's just a little loud sometimes. But don't worry - you can always get that fixed surgically.

Jack: Well, since we're being honest I slept as well as I could even though I was freezing.

Demi: Yeah, the room was kind of cold.

Jack: Yeah, that and you took all the covers but that's alright. Next time I'll just pull them all and then you can be cold. We'll take turns. Okay?

Demi: Oh, well I really enjoyed being pushed around last night. It was the same effect as on a roller coaster. I didn't even have to dream I was on one - it sure felt like I was.

Jack: And I love to hear patriotic songs while I sleep.

Demi: Patriotic songs?

Jack: Yeah, you sing extremely loud and extremely off key in your sleep. And they aren't even good songs, it's stuff like the Star Spangled Banner. At least I think that's what it was. It wasn't really in tune.

Demi: Well I think singing is better than snoring.

Jack: And I think snoring is better than freezing to death in your own bed!

Demi: Well, fine.

Jack: Fine.

(short pause they look at each other)

(at the same time) Demi & Jack: I'm sorry.

Jack: The best thing is that we're not alone and I'm happy with you.

Demi: You're right like always.
