The cloying scent of chocolate and sweet fruit filled the house. Two familiar but different figures sat on the long black L shaped couch. On the coffee table in the middle of the living area was a tall bottle of red wine, two wine glasses, and a box of chocolate covered fruits. Miss Piggy laid her head on her frog's chest eating the delectable sweets. She was wearing a heavenly white robe with faux fur trimming, hair neatly tied up in a high ponytail. Kermit on the other and was wearing nothing but his iconic green collar. "Kermie?" piggy piped up "Hm?" he looked down at her. "Where will vous be taking moi tomorrow?" "Ah jeez..." he thought "I forgot to find a place."
"Uh well I was...thinking we could go to...-" Kermit paused thinking of a place "well first we'll go see a show...um go to dinner and spend the rest of the night at a hotel " Miss Piggy smiled "will there be chocolate and flowers?" she asked tossing another chocolate fruit in her mouth. "mhm" he nodded " Lots "
"will we be alone?" she asked before yawning. "Yes dear "
"Promise?"
"Promise" The frog held her close.
"Oh Mon captain moi am so pleased to hear that you have something planned moi thought you would forget again" she pecked him on his cheek. An hour later of sweet talking and wine the two negotiated to go up to their bedroom. Miss Piggy slipped off her robe to reveal some of the most casual clothes Kermit has ever seen her wear. A pair of shorts with white and pink hearts and a stormy blue Disney printed T-shirt that fit loosely on her figure. He flushed slightly than sat on the bed "We need to pack soon, we're leaving in tomorrow " He said laying down on on his side inviting her to lay next to him. She took his invitation and cuddled close to her frog. "Mhm...goodnight Kermie" piggy said sleepily and closed her eyes. Kermit kissed the top of her snout "night piggy."
The next morning Kermit drove to the Muppets boarding house. Miss piggy stayed home saying "moi does not wish for mois day to be disturbed by those freaks" that gave him a couple of hours to himself. Kermit, being the good-natured amphibian that he is, he wanted to wish the other Muppets a happy valentines day. He arrived to a heavily decorated house filled with paper hearts of all colors plastered on the wall, the usual earthy toned furniture was replaced with redwood, burgundy, white and bright reds, Cards with sweet notes were scattered about and candies in a little cute circular white bowl but Kermit knew its probably best to not take one. A bear with a necktie with pink hearts instead of the usual pink circles.
Appropriate attire for a day as such.
"Heyy Kermit!" the bear exclaimed walking to him. "Hi ho Fozzie!" Kermit said with glee "I came by to see how everyone's spending this special day." Fozzie looked behind the frog then out the front door " Where's Miss Piggy?"The frog walking to the living area where most of the Muppets were "She wanted to stay home and pack up"
Fozzie followed "you're going somewhere? where are you going?" he questioned. "well" Kermit began " I promised piggy that we would go see a show and have dinner then go to a nice hotel."
"Ah" the bear said.
"Hay Kermit! whatcha doing here?" Rowlf said on the other side of the room. Annie sue was next to him. She was an average sized pig with a cute pink panda sweater with midnight colored leggings. They were in the dining room surrounded by decorations and sweets "Oh hi Kermit!" she said happily "Oh hi Rowlf hi Annie sue! "
"I came by to see what you all were doing for valentines day?" Kermit asked. "well I was gonna treat Rowlf for a night in a hotel since he helped me overcome some personal problems...ya know in our own beds or different rooms...nothing like that" Annie sue said.
Rowlf nodded to confirm "A dog does what'a dog can to help."
"Which hotel exactly?" The frog asked. Annie sue stood from the dining table " Manson hotel."
"Ah...well that's funny...Miss Piggy and I are going to the same place"
"Ah really? does she need help with her bags?"Annie asked.
"Um...no Annie sue I don't think she needs any help" Kermit said " I'll take care of her luggage." She lowered her head a bit, not from sadness but from understanding "Okay but if she needs anything...anything at all let me know!"
"I will...so Rowlf " he said changing the topic " what are you going to do when you get to the hotel?"
The scruffy dog fixed his relaxed but bad posture " Ya know have a couple of beers, watch some TV ya know to relax and unwind while I got the chance"
Classic Rowlf.
"That sounds nice" Kermit admitted. The amphibian darted his eyes around "where's everyone else?"
"Floyd and Janice went off to a jazz club, Sam took Scooter, Walter and some chickens to the good ol' Dairy Queen down the street to show what 'real American' food tastes like...um oh! Gonzo took Camilla to a monster truck show and everyone else is keeping to themselves" the dog informed with his usual raspy voice.
The frog nodded.
Fozzie bear walked in abruptly" wow! I'm going there too! Isn't that funny?"
"Good grief " Kermit sighed " you too? is there anyone else going to the same place?" he said aloud. The air in the house was still. "Who are you talking to?" Annie sue whispered matching the silence.
"..uh n...no I...I was just talking out loud" the frog looked down to his phone...he had 20 missed calls, 4 voice messages and 13 text messages from...Miss Piggy. His phone was on silent mode...
"I should get going I...will see you guys tonight I guess" He left the house and drove back to his own.
He now has to come up with an excuse for not answering her phone calls. He arrived at the golden gate with their initials and typed in the code then drove to the driveway. He was smart enough to buy more flowers and chocolate so he wouldn't get clobbered.
He took out his keys as he walked out towards the door. As he entered the door he didn't see Miss Piggy anywhere on the first floor so he went up the spiral staircase. The next place he checked was their bedroom. Miss Piggy was sitting on her side of the bed playing something on her phone.
She was wearing a coal grey sheath dress with a dash of navy blue. She wore jet black stilettos with white opera gloves to protect her soft hands, her wavy sun-kissed hair flowed over her shoulders. Over to her face, were two smoky eyes and knee-weakening blue eyes that stood out from everything she was wearing like a sore thumb.
"Um hey..piggy I got you something" he started as he walked to her. She ignored him. "Piggy?" he asked again "I'm sorry didn't answer your calls..or text messages...heh my phone was on silent mode again"
The diva continued to play on her phone, not looking up from her device. He sighed and cautiously placed his hand on her shoulder "c'mon pi-". "AAHY!" she screamed dropped her phone getting in position to fight. Kermit backed away "Piggy It's just me!...It's just me!"
Miss Piggy took out the earbuds that were in her ears" Wha?...Kermit don't scare me like that!"
"Sorry Piggy but I got you something" He took out the chocolates and flowers from behind him and handed them to her. She stared at the gifts. He felt the tension in her eyes and gave a nervous laugh. "what's your excuse?" she asked with a demanding tone. "umm..er..silent mode? But..." he signaled to the gifts in his hand "I uh bought you your favorite chocolates." She wondered and smiled a bit and took the presents.
She set the flowers down and opened the box "chocolate truffles?"
"mhm" he nodded. She tossed one in her mouth and savored the heavenly taste
"you're forgiven."
The frog smiled "well then we should get some breakfast before we set off.
The two then went over to the kitchen to cook brunch. Miss Piggy had pancakes, an omelet and a glass of orange juice, Kermit had a blueberry muffin and a black coffee. " Do you have all your things packed piggy?" the frog asked.
The pig nodded " vous things are pack too" Kermit paused " I didn't pack anything yet piggy"
"I know moi packed for vous" she smiled sweetly after finishing her food. "That's my pig" Kermit said subconsciously.
Kermit soon loaded their bags into the trunk of the car while miss piggy took her spot in the passenger's seat. When she sat down she slipped on her sunglasses. Kermit got in "ready piggy?" he asked starting the car.
"No mon captain moi am ready" she said happily.
They set off.
