A/N: Again, sorry for not updating last week. I forgot. If I do forget don't be afraid to remind me! :) This little idea came from Sarcastic-Bones. I hope you like it.
Memily?
"Film night?" Connor asked excitedly. "Bagsy picking the movie."
Becker groaned. "No, Temple there is no way I'm letting you pick the film. We'll end up watching some sci-fi/fantasy rubbish."
"I'm definitely picking something sci-fi now," Connor laughed.
"Why not a rom-com?" Jess interrupted, holding onto Becker's hand and leaning on his shoulder as they all left the ARC. "What about that new one with Jennifer Aniston?"
"I don't think I can stomach a rom-com, Jess," Becker told her.
She pulled a puppy dog face, widening her eyes and looking up at him pleadingly.
"Alright," Becker muttered giving in. "There's no way I can stand firm after that look. You win, Jess. I vote watching a rom-com."
Jess grinned happily and stretched to kiss her fiancé.
"Sap," Matt hissed into Becker's ear. "I can't believe you folded."
Becker shot him a glare, while Abby and Connor both smirked.
"I'm definitely not going if we watch a rom-com," Matt continued.
"Grouch!" Abby said playfully, turning round from where she and Connor led the party to the SUV to glare at him.
Emily took Matt's hand. "Yeah, you've got to join in. It won't be the same without you," she beseeched him, then speaking quietly just to him continued, "Besides, if we do watch something romantic, I'm sure we can think of something else to do."
Matt grinned at her. "Alright. But I still don't want to watch something too lovey-dovey."
The six friends piled into the SUV, with Matt driving and Emily in the front beside him. In the back Abby sat atop Connor's lap where there wasn't enough space for four people. When they pulled into Blockbuster, Becker and Matt groaned at the thought of watching a rom-com in its entirety, whilst Abby and Connor headed into the shop first.
"Oh God, quick let's get in there before Connor picks out Star Wars again."
"Hey!" Connor called back to them, sounding offended. "I heard that!"
The four friends followed Connor and Abby into Blockbuster, though Matt and Becker trailed behind being pulled by Jess and Emily, who were both fairly excited although for different reasons. For Jess it was the thrill of spending time with her friends. Any kind of gathering would bring out this kind of joy and high in her; whilst for Emily, it was the anticipation of watching her first film and doing it with her friends.
Inside the shop, Connor began to head straight for the fantasy section, until Becker's hand clamped around the material of the back of his jacket and yanked him back. "I don't think so, Temple."
"Calm down, Action Man. Sheesh! I was only joking!"
"Very funny," Becker responded. "I'm laughing so hard my sides are splitting."
Jess giggled at his sarcastic tone and continued following Abby as she searched for a film.
"Right, here we are. Rom-coms," Abby murmured distastefully. "You sure you wouldn't prefer an action film, Becker?"
"No. What Jess wants is fine."
Abby grumbled but nevertheless began scanning the rows of DVDs for something that caught her eye.
"Is anything okay as long as it's got romance in it, Jess?"
"I guess…" Jess replied to Abby uncertainly.
"Excellent." She picked up a DVD and concealed its cover in her jacked. "Right let's go pay for it then."
"Hold on," Matt called. "Hadn't you better ask Emily if she's okay with whatever it is you've picked up?"
"Fine," Abby sighed. "Emily, what do you think about Mr and Mrs Smith?"
"Sounds a bit common. Why can't you just take Connor's surname when you get married?"
"Emily, it's the name of the film," Matt explained, taking the DVD and showing it to her.
"Abby," Jess groaned. "You know I hate Brangelina! Look what they did to poor Jennifer Aniston!"
"Brangelina? Who's that?" Emily asked, no longer looking at the DVD in Matt's hands.
"Brangelina is two people – Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie – who are called Brangelina because that's what their names are put together," Jess explained, still glaring at Abby.
"Right," Connor continued. "So Abby and I would be Conby or Cabby or…that's all I can think of."
"Why does your name come first?" Abby demanded.
"Because Brad's comes first, Love."
Abby harrumphed but said nothing further.
"And Jess and I would be Bessica, Bess, Jecker or something like that."
"So we'd be called…Memily?" Emily asked Matt, who looked rather uncomfortable, his face turning the colour of beetroots.
"Well, yeah, except we're not a couple," he replied, trying to hide his attraction to her soft face and brown curls and his wish that they were a couple.
Abby scoffed. "Yeah, because you don't fancy her."
Matt struggled to retort, stuttering and merely opening and closing his mouth.
A/N: What did you think? Please leave a review if you've got time. If anyone's got any prompts for a chapter tell me them too. Also, my apologies if anyone really likes Brangelina. :)
