Remi
Hey! What are you doing?
Remi
I miss you. Call me ;)
Michael
I can't. I'm told my parent's I'm studying.
Michael
Why weren't you at school today?
Remi
Wasn't feeling well. :-(
Remi
I think I caught whatever it is that Lauren has.
Remi
She's always coughing without covering her mouth :-|
Remi
Call me. You can just whisper so your parent's don't hear.
Michael
I seriously can't.
Michael
Plus I need to actually study or I'll fail chem.
Remi
I think I'm going to bed.
Remi
Will you tell me a bedtime story?
Remi
Yeah, like a fairytale about a princess and a prince and magic...
Michael
A lot of those are super dark.
Michael
Cinderella's stepsisters cut off their toes and heel before Cinderella got the slipper and it was filled with blood.
Michael
It's true. Read it.
Remi
I don't want to read it.
Remi
Don't tell me a story like that. I want u to make it up. Tell me a happy one.
Michael
I don't know what to say.
Remi
Start with "Once upon a time..."
Michael
Once upon a time there was a princess.
Michael
J/k her name was Remi. Princess Remi.
Remi
Did she have a prince?
Michael
Are you going to let me tell this or not!
Michael
Princess Remi was beautiful but very lonely.
Remi
No! Continue. I'm sorry. Keep going with the story.
Michael
She was beautiful and friendly and everyone loved her.
Michael
But she was lonely because she lived at the highest tower of the castle. And she was sick.
Michael
And no one in the kingdom knew how to cure her.
Michael
They searched all over the kingdom and still they could find nothing. The princess' health continued to fail.
Remi
I don't like this story. Start over. Tell a different story.
Michael
Don't worry this one has a happy ending.
Michael
The kingdom did not know what to do and fell into despair.
Michael
Until one day a handsome knight on a white stallion rode into town.
Michael
And everyone rejoiced because they hoped he might be able to cure the princess.
Michael
The knight went to the castle to visit the princess.
Remi
And at first glance they instantly fell in love?
Michael
Stop interrupting or I wont finish the story.
Michael
He climbed the tallest tower to the princess' room and peaked through her window.
Michael
And he saw that she was not sick at all. She was jus pretending.
Michael
The princess had fooled everyone, but not the knight. He knew that she was a faker and a liar and a cheat.
Remi
Michael what are you talking about?
Michael
Just follow the story. It gets good. I promise you'll like it.
Michael
Shall I continue?
Michael
The princess climbed out her bed and looked out of the window.
Remi
Are you here? Are you watching me?
Michael
Princess Remi seemed afraid now.
Michael
She looked out of window.
Michael
But she did not see anyone.
Remi
What kind of story is this?
Michael
It's a fairytale.
Michael
The knight waited for the princess to leave her tower, and when she did he left a note on her dresser.
Michael
Don't you want to know what the note said?
Remi
U r starting to freak me out.
Michael
Don't be freaked out. It's just a story.
Michael
Remi, don't you want to know what the note said?
Michael
Look on your dresser Remi.
Remi
You were in my room?!
Michael
What does it say? Tell me what it says.
Remi
"You weren't where you were supposed to be. I saw you but you didn't see me. "
Remi
What are you talking about?! Were you following me?
Michael
Now alarmed the fair princess descended from her tower.
Michael
She ran all the way down the stairs. And at the bottom of the stairs she found a gift waiting for her.
Michael
Remi go down the stairs.
Remi
I don't want to. You're scarring me Michael.
Michael
Go down the stairs Remi...
Remi
It's a watch. It's broken. It's stuck at 9.
Michael
And what else do you see?
Remi
There is a note attached.
Michael
What does it say?
Remi
You already know what it says.
Michael
Tell me what it says!
Remi
"At the stroke of nine, a handsome knight you will find."
Remi
Why are you doing this to me? I didn't do anything I swear. I don't know who you think you saw...
Remi
I wasn't with anyone! I don't know what any of this is about.
Remi
Saw what?! Where did you see me?!
Remi
I want to know where you think you saw me?
Michael
At the bus stop around the corner from school where anyone could see you Remi.
Michael
I forgot to say that this princess was dumb.
Michael
You were laughing with him. And you held his hand. And you kissed him.
Michael
You know who! That gross slob.
Michael
Would the princess rather have a slob than a knight?!
Remi
Why are you doing this?
Michael
The beautiful princess began to cry because she it was true that she is a liar and a cheat and now everyone knows.
Michael
And she wept and wept and wept. And she asked for forgiveness.
Remi
I'm sorry Michael. Michael please....
Michael
But the knight was not convinced. He did not believe her apology.
Michael
He was angry and vowed to make the princess pay for her dishonestly.
Remi
What are you going to do?
Michael
What time is it Remi?
Remi
What are you going to do?
Michael
For the fibber there is no cure. Answer the knock at the door.
Remi
Don't do this. Please just go home.
Michael
It's 9. Open the door Remi.
Michael
Don't be afraid. It's just your handsome knight.
Remi
Just go away! I'm going to call the police.
Michael
There's no need for that Remi. I told you that this story ends happily. For the knight.
Michael
Open the door Remi.
Michael
I want you to tell me a bedtime story.
