Movie Night, A National Treasure Fanfiction

Author's Note: I don't own National Treasure. I wish I did.

Chapter One

It was a boring Wednesday night at the Gates estate. Riley, Ben, and Abigail were watching TV. Actually, they were trying to find something to watch. "There's nothing on!" Riley complained loudly. "Do you have any suggestions?" Ben snapped at his young friend. Inspiration must have struck the young techie because he suddenly shot out of his chair. "We," Riley drew out the sentence, "should do a movie weekend!" The exclamation drew puzzled stares from his two friends. "A what?" Abigail looked confused. She was tired, so she was rather slow on the uptake. "A movie weekend. We'll rent a ton of movies and watch them all weekend long." Riley looked very excited about his suggestion. "I don't know," Ben seemed uncertain. "What if the DVD player breaks? Or worse, what if you get bored?" Abi laughed at the look on her husband's face. "Please, Ben." Riley looked at his best friend with the saddest puppy dog eyes ever. "Pretty please. You can pick whatever movie you want. It's not like there's anything on. Please!" With each 'please', Ben's expression softened. "Fine," he relented. The consent evoked a huge smile from Riley. "On one condition: No scary movies." Ben gave Riley a stern look, as he knew of his friend's love of horror films. Riley, however smiled back. "Why, still afraid that Frankenstein is going to eat you?" Ben skillfully dodged the comment. "We'll go pick out the movies tomorrow."
