Through the forest-

"The young bird couple took a nice, leisurely walk through the forests of Yosemite. The trees there may be nothing new, just firs, cedars, or pretty much pine trees in general, but nonetheless over a thousand is quite beautiful to look at."

"The trees were lined up in a scattered fashion, making the cast of the sunlight dance all over the ground, which made the walk a little more interesting."

"Instead of looking at buildings, walls, cars, and other everyday things, you would look at the far better things, the works of mother nature. It was nothing but natural; a world that was untouched, for a long period of time."

"As Mordecai took a sip of his water, he took a look around to both take in the fresh air, and make a keen observation the beauty around him."

"Soon enough, once they started to go downhill, the two would eventually encounter other people. They would say hi, and would always show polite manners to those who passed by, whether they would be joggers, much older couples, or families big or small, they were friendly to them. If Rigby was there Mordecai would guess that he would be a lil prick and judge people, but good thing he's not."

"Reaching the rocky terrains, this was where and when they had to pay very close attention. Down below these rocks is a stream that's flowing very fast. You must always watch your step. But there's no rule that says you can't have a look around."

"The background was spectacular even up close. The crystal clear blue waters were indeed shining from the sunlight, making it look quite refreshing than the water you drink from. Margaret took notice of kids playing in the calm river parts, splashing around, and such. She smiled at the sight, knowing that kids these days, who would mainly be focused on electronics, still have an interest in the wilderness."

"Mordecai looked on and saw several men fishing. The fish they caught may not have been as big as he pictured they would catch, but they didn't look like they were complaining, but rather laughing amongst each other."

"However what caught both of their eyes were the mothers of those children. They had a perfect balance in between beauty and hard work, and they still managed to have time to give their love to the whole family."

"Funny, both Mordecai and Margaret thought of the same exact thing and they blushed to look away, and laughed."

"A family... It would be something that would... Require settling down and dedicating your time and energy to nurture about. It would feel... Nice."

At the valley-

"The sun was dropping by the hour, but there was still time to kill for a nice walk down the grasslands, and this was where they would actually find some deer."

"There weren't that many bucks, only a small amount, consisting of 4-2 pointed antlers. The herd was made up of does and fawns."

"However what would then grab their attention was the incoming of a bulky 10 point buck, obviously in heat and wanting to protect that herd."

"Staying from a distance, Mordecai took a picture of the herd with his phone."

"Satisfied, the couple would slowly pass by the deer herd to continue their journey back to their campsite"

Mordecai: Well, at least he wasn't that deer monster. *They both laugh at the memory*

In the evening-

"Now it was getting dark, and it was a good thing that the two decided to head back to their campsite. The lonnng walk was becoming exhausting, but it was worth it. The rivers, the scenic sights, and the deer; all worth it."

"Finally! They made it! Back to their campsite. Mainly their tent was the first thing to see, because it was their idea to store everything inside of it. For safekeeping, Mordecai did a check to see if everything was all accounted for, and thank God, everything was. Now they can take out their goods and use them, snacks and all."

Under the stars-

"Fully sated after a nice cookout, they decided to use their hammock to rest under the stars. The views of the night sky in the town had nothing like this at all. They could see everything, even the constellations, or as Margaret puts it, "The thingies"

"To be honest, without Eileen, the two have no idea which one was which, they both had a little laugh at their sudden embarrassment."

"But what Mordecai suddenly remembered, was the last time they gazed under the stars, he was trying to have a conversation with Margaret... What was it about?... It was about, how she thought beforehand that guys were jerks. Mordecai was still curious to finally know the answer. So now, he decided to make his move."

Mordecai: Hey Margaret?...

Margaret: *turning her head* Hmm?

Mordecai: So um... Do you remember when we were camping with the others? I was wanting to talk to you about uh... Why you thought guys were jerks, but something interrupted us. I just now remembered this, but what I want to know is why?

"This was a lot to fill in Margaret's head, and it was a question that would force her to come clean about hiding behind the answer. So taking a deep breath, she finally gives it, but she's not happy with the memory."

Margaret: Well... before I fell in love with you, I was dating Angel, that singer. One day he came over to my apartment, wanting to talk to me. He said that we couldn't do this anymore, because both the music and his new girlfriend were more attractive to him. Y-you didn't know how pissed I was to hear him say those things. So I kicked that jerk out, and since then I... Never looked at men the same way again.

"Oh my God. It's no wonder why Margaret was hesitant for the next few weeks. Mordecai wanted to know why, but he never had to courage to ask. He always thought that if he did, things would turn for the worse, but hey, how do you think he's with her now? Because he asked. Now it's his turn to answer back."

Mordecai: Margaret, I think that guy made the worst decision of his life. *She looks up at him* You're everything I always wanted in a girl, nothing came close. And if Angel couldn't see that, then that bitch needs to get a life. He doesn't deserve any woman, and he doesn't deserve you, because we deserve each other.

"Margaret took this to heart in the most amazed and bittersweet way. Lovestruck, she jumped up and kissed her boyfriend, leaving him completely lovestruck, however he managed to spit out an "I love you."

"They both decided to use their hammock to sleep under the serene atmosphere instead, and so and then the next morning, the two have begun to drive home under the sunrise."

"Goodbye Yosemite"
