The Dolphin Book: Chapter 6

After typing this chapter, which is FULL of ripped off lines and nuances from Bruce Willis movies, I decided to try to figure out which movie(s) I stole them from.

I didn’t have to go digging far-at all. I had a feeling it was from my 2^nd favorite Bruce movie, the EVER so fantastic comedy action flick, Hudson Hawk, a little gem made in 1991. It ultimately ended up flopping in the box office. I LOVED this movie, and Bruce was SMOKIN’ in it. I had to have watched it at least 15 times as a preteen. The action, the jokes, the singing, and adorable Bruce kept me coming back for more. 

And how could blame me, with shots like this…

Those sun glasses though...

 

Or this one. 

WTF are those socks and shoes????

 

Or this one.

There are no words.

 

Or this. 

Look at those twitchy fuckers.

 

Or clips as fantastic as this.

Your head against my head! Fair fight!

There are also classic lines such as

“How’s my driving? 1-800-I’m-Going-to-Fucking- Die!”

~or~

(After the main henchman's head getting chopped off-they always had the worst deaths) 

“Guess you won’t be going to that hat convention in July!”

Haven’t seen it? You need to watch that shit. Classic. It was THIS Bruce that was in my mind when writing this piece of literary genius.

The Dolphin Book:

Chapter 6

When she opened her eyes, she was in the horse stable in the hay. She looked over and saw Bruce sleeping. They were covered by their clothes. He looked so peaceful, sleeping in the soft hay. She scooted closer to him and put her arms around him.

She felt his warm breath against her cheek. She touched his face and his lips. She kissed his chest and inched up to his neck, and inched up to his chin. He started to stir. Finally she reached his lips. She kissed him and he woke up.  He started to kiss her back.

“Good morning.” She said, kissing him.

“Good morning.” He said as he stretched. He looked into her soft brown eyes and smiled. He touched her face, hair, and lips.

“I love you.” He said, and with that they were in each other’s arms. He rolled on top of her. He kissed her stomach and her neck. As he kissed her stomach she said, “I love you too.”  And he scooted back up to her lips.

“Do you really mean it?” he asked, looking into her eyes.

“Yes.” She said, and she started to kiss him. She rolled on top of him and started to kiss his chest and stomach. What is with all the stomach kissing??

“Are you hungry?” he asked her smiling.

“Yes.” She said.

“What do you want?”

“You.” She said, still smiling. He laughed.

“Come on. You know what I mean.” He said kissing her. “”Let’s go up to the house and get something to eat.”

So they put on their clothes that had been covering them and headed up to the house. They ate a big breakfast and played with the dog.

“Honey?” she yelled

“Yes?” he yelled back, he was in the shower.

“I have to go to the store. I’ll be back.” She said.

“Ok!” he answered.

“I love you!” she yelled back.

“Love you too!” he said.

“Bye!” she said, and with that she was gone. Bruce lounged around the house for two hours and waited for her. Seth and him (grammar) fell sleep on the couch waiting for her.

She came in and saw them. She walked over and Seth woke up.

“Hello, big boy.” (yikes) she sad to him, giving him a kiss.

“Hello.” He said kissing her back. She started to put the groceries away. But, he noticed there were only two things. He just ignored it.

For three days, they just hung out and went on hikes.  She went to the store every day though. He just ignored it.

It had been a week, and they were eating lunch. (Really? How does she not work??)

“What do you go when you go out to the store?” he asked her.

“Get food.” she answered.

“What else do you do?” he asked.

She stopped and looked at him. She put down her plate.

“What is that supposed to mean?” she asked, irritated.

“Well you go down there everyday, and only come back with like three things. What’s going on Justine!?” he said firmly, and standing up.

(OH SHIT. PUTTING DOWN PLATES? FIRMLY SAYING THINGS THEN STANDING UP?? Shit ‘bout to get real.)

“Well…it gets really…busy down there!”  She protested.

“Bull! I’ve been down there and it’s never busy! Why are you laying to me?!” he yelled, walking over to her.

“Why are you yelling at me?!” she yelled back. “I invite you in to my home, my heart, and you’re yelling at me?!” she yelled.

“You? Being considerate? Must I offend?! (Random line from one of Bruce’s movies) What are you doing down there?! Having an affair? ‘Oh clerk person! You’re so sexy!’” he said, yelling and mocking her.

(oozzzzgggmmmmmmmm. Also, do you like the intense punctuation?! I’m a fan.)

“Why don’t you trust me for once?!”  She said, yelling at him angrily.(I know right? They have been together FOREVER, like a whole week, why doesn’t he just trust her for ONCE??)

“Because I don’t understand! Are you having an affair?!” he yelled, walking out of the kitchen.

“No! Why would you think that?? I love you! And I can’t help it if I do love you!” she screamed with tears coming down her face.

“Just tell me what you are doing!” he yelled, looking at her.

There was a silence.

“I can’t tell you yet.” She said, holding her anger in.

“What were you gonna do? Wait until I asked you to marry me? Well listen, it’s not gonna happen! So tell me know!” he was yelling even louder.

“NO!” she screamed. “What I was gonna do isn’t even close to happening now!” she screamed even louder.

“Is this what you do? Find a guy, and pretend to love him? Then you take him to your place, make love to him, then dump him off? It that what you do?!” he yelled even louder than before. (ESCALATION)

“No!” she screamed.

“Or was is for my money or fame? Did you want to try me out since you were so obsessed with her for 17 year now? To see if I was actually any good? Well, how was I? Good enough for your taste? The back stabbing liar taste?! (dauuummmnnn) Well I am going back to Hollywood!” he yelled as he walked out the door. “And I DON’T love you!” he slammed the door.

Justine stormed to the door and opened it.

“Listen you asshole! Do you really want to know what I was doing?!” She yelled. He was on the steps of the porch and she was in front of the door.

“I was looking for a wedding ring for you! I was in love with you so bad that it hurt not to see you. And the reason I was gone for two hours was because I was trying to get the best for you! (wtf does that mean? Is she whittling it?) But no! You had to go accuse me of having an affair with a clerk person at the super market. I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you. But not anymore! So you go back to Hollywood with your fame and money and get laid every night. I don’t care because I DON’T love you!!” she screamed and slammed the door.

Bruce stood on there on the porch.

“Justine.” He said, knocking on the door. “Look, I’m sorry, I didn’t know. I was just scared. Please, I’m sorry,” he said guilty like.

“Get the hell off my porch asshole!” Justine yelled from inside.

“Well, FINE! I will!” he yelled. He stood there for two second and then turned around. Right before he took his first step, he heard her crying. He turned around and said. “I’m sorry.” and left.

He was walking to the pay phone (whoa) on the main road with tears streaming down his face.

Justine was shriveled up on the ground bawling her eyes out. Seth came over to her and licked her hand. He laid down beside her and she hugged him while she cried.

(Wow. That was WILDLY dramatic.)

........………

It had been two days since that big fight. And Justine sat around with Seth. She had nothing to do. Nothing to say. She just sat around. Seth slept in the clothes Bruce had left behind.

Bruce just sat around too. He was upset from what she said but, he felt even worse about what he said to her. He wouldn’t talk to anyone. Just sat in the dark. All alone.

It had been a week and Justine had just finished cleaning the kitchen. She had a nice fire going and was feeding Seth. She was carrying his plate to the door when she saw something on the floor. She stopped and picked it up. She held it to her eye level. It was a picture of Bruce. She looked at it sadly and dropped her hand. But when she dropped her hand, she saw Bruce standing on the porch steps. She dropped the picture and Seth’s plate.  She walked over to the door and opened it. She folded her arms and leaned on the doorframe.

“I thought you were going back to Hollywood.” She said in a voice that was obvious she wasn’t happy to see him.

“I just wanted to say I am sorry.” He said, looking at her. She opened her mouth to say something, but he stopped her.

“Please! Please don’t say anything. I don’t want this to turn into another fight.” He said, looking at her and stepping up a step.

“I think I should feel bad, not you.” He said, looking down at his feet and then back to her. “I jumped to conclusions and yelled at you and accused you of doing something you didn’t do. And called you things that you…aren’t,.” He looked down again. He had a horribly guilty and sad look on his face.

“And that I told you I didn’t love you. But….I now know that I do love you.” He said, with tears in his eyes.  “I love you more than anything in the world. And not seeing you everyday hurts.” Tears came down his cheeks now. “And I can’t even begin to think when or if you’ll forgive me.” He said looking at her. His eyes were like a stream. He couldn’t hide them anymore.

(AHHHHHH-- A STREAM!!!)

“And I feel horrible about what I said. I guess I was scared I would loose you. But in my battle for you to be my wife, I ended up loosing you anyways. He said, looking down.

“So.” He said wiping his tears away, “I thought the respectable thing to do was to come here and say sorry, hope for your forgiveness, and if you ever find it in your beautiful heart to forgive me, I’m always around.” He said, looking into her eyes.

“Well…I’m sorry.” He said, and he turned around to started to walk away.

“Bruce.” Justine said, walking down to him. He turned around and looked into her eyes. She took his hand in hers. They gazed into each other’s eyes. Then she reached up and gave him a little kiss.

“I forgive you. And I’m sorry too.” She said, looking at their hands.

“I forgive you too. And I am very sorry.” He said, putting his hands on her cheeks. 

She threw her arms around him and kissed him. Tears came down both their faces.

“I’m so sorry sweetie! Oh Bruce, I love you! Don’t ever leave again! Please!” she said between kisses.

“Shhh. I’m here. Don’t worry, I won’t leave ever again.” He said, looking at her.

“Promise?” she asked, touching his face.

“Yea. Promise.” He said, looking at her. They smiled at each other and she jumped into his arms and kissed him, and he carried her in to the house.

Justine had been laying on a feather comforter that was by the fire place, so he put her down on that and laid on top of her.

She kissed him as she unbuttoned his shirt. He slowly undressed her as she slowly undressed him. She rolled on top of his and kissed he chest. Then he stopped.

“Justine?” she asked her, putting his fingers over her lips.

“Yes?” she said, gazing in to his eyes.

“Will you…be my wife?” he asked, touching her face. She sat up and was siting on him.

She had only known him for about three for four weeks but she loved him more than anything. He sat up and looked very eager to know her answer.

“I better whisper it to you.” She said. She leaned over and headed to his ear. She slid to his mouth instead of his ear and kissed him. (So awkward. Realized tonight I also ripped from Hudson Hawk.)

“Yes. I would love to be your wife.” She said, looking at him. He reached over to his pants and took out a box. He opened it and it was a beautiful engagement ring. It was a simple diamond on a gold band. He slid it onto her finger. She looked at it. She was speechless. They smiled at each other and she kissed him. He rolled on top of her.

All night they made love by the fireplace. Seth was upstairs hiding under Justine’s bed. He didn’t want to see them well…you know.

What the fuck is that ending?? Who ends a chapter like that??? How weird is that?? There was some AWKWARD writing in this chapter. I mean the whole thing is obviously awkward, but THIS chapter is just a cluster fuck of awkward ‘what the fuck’s.

Only 3 more chapters friends.
