"Testing one, two, three, testing one, two, three!"
"Will you knock that out!?"
"I gotta make sure it works k?! So hold up a minute!" Not accustomed to taking orders Jackie walked over to her husband and without exchanging any words tore the microphone from his hand and threw it across the room, causing feedback to bounce in their ears.
"No I won't hold up for a minute!" He had quickly rose from his chair, pushed past her nearly causing her to stumble back, and went to the gadget.
"Great Jackie I think you broke it!"
"Good. It was stupid, what in the hell do you need with that anyways?" Pete was silent for a few moments before returning to the table and his chair.
"It really doesn't matter now does it Jackie?"
"You can at least answer my question Pete, it won't kill ya!"
"I was going to have us record a message for your folks telling them about the baby and sent it out as an early Christmas present." Now it was time for Jackie to become quiet as her eyes dropped embarrassingly away from his.
"Oh. Why didn't you tell me, instead of being all secretive!?"
"Ever hear of something called a surprise? I should have figured you'd ruin it, you always do!" Her eyes shoot back up, fire seemed to reside inside.
"Excuse me?!"
"Any surprise I have ever planned you have snub your nose in and find it out! You know every restaurant I make reservations at, some how are dressed and perfectly packed for surprise holidays, and you even describe you engagement ring in fine detail before I even gave it to you."
"Well Pete it's not my fault you still attempt to surprise me, knowing my track record and all."
"Yeah how silly of me, trying to do something sweet for my wife, I most be bunkers!"
