15th November

Amity's POV:

"Listen, Amity." Luz started in a serious tone. "I'm not joking when I say that this will take more than a full day. You don't have to do it with me, but just know once it has started I am not stopping."

"What, you think I can't handle it?" Amity asked, offended by Luz's tone.

"I'm not saying that, it's just the last time we tried a movie marathon you cried half-way into the first one and fell asleep by the second one." Luz argued.

Amity's face went red with embarrassment. "That's not my fault! It was a sad movie!" She tried to defend herself.

"Sad? Amity we watched Kung Fu Panda." Luz said, deadpan.

"So what!? They treated Po like he was sub-human." Amity responded.

"I'm just saying. We are going to watch the entire MCU. That's a lot of movies." Luz repeated.

"Stop patronising me and fucking play Iron Man already." Amity responded bitterly.

The first movie ended, and it ended rather spectacularly. Iron Man is an incredible, solid movie and anyone who disagrees is wrong. Even Amity can appreciate it. See that Luz? Not as weak as you think. One movie easily down.

"How many left now?" Amity asked.

"33." Luz said. 

"Oh." Amity responded. Well. Only 33 movies, it's not that bad.

So. Fucking. Boring. Why is the Hulk this boring of a movie? Does it even need its own movie? Surely anyone with a braincell can understand his concept in one sentence, he does not need a movie. Not to mention a terribly mediocre one.

Amity sighed. She signed up for this, she can't just back out of it now. The next one is Iron Man 2, which is a great movie so that won't be a problem. Also Scarlett Johansson being in it definitely helps.

How many movies has it been? God knows. My eyes are barely open now. How the fuck can Luz sit through this shit? Does she not sleep? Is she not tired of watching movies after a certain point? The things that Amity would do right now to go to sleep is insane.

"Luz." Amity whined, banging on her shoulder. "Please no more. I'll do anything for a break." She begged.

Luz didn't respond. Her eyes were barely open. Amity would bet every single asset she had that the words from the movie, or what she was even looking at was going through her brain. Maybe that's the trick. 

Another hour has passed. She doesn't even care anymore. Fuck the movie. Fuck this marathon. Luz is an idiot for ever thinking either of us could do this shit. Who does she take me for? Furthermore, who does she take herself for? 

"Luz." Amity said, angrily.

"Mm." Luz grunted.

"Sleep." Amity said.

"Mm." Luz grunted.

"Sleep." Amity repeated.

"Mm." Luz grunted.

"If you aren't, I will. Wake me up when it's on Guardians of the Galaxy." Amity said.

She pushed Luz to the edge of the sofa and lied down, resting her head on Luz's lap. She didn't even care at this point, neither did Luz. This wasn't romantic. This wasn't cute. She was tired. They were tired. Goodnight.
