(John-Paul and Mischa’s apartment.John-Paul is sitting down on the couch reading the paper.Mischa enters)

Mischa:Hi Honey, I’m Home

(John-Paul puts the newspaper down on the coffee table)

John-Paul:See, I’m the guy so I’m supposed to be doing that

Mischa:No one said that I couldn’t

John-Paul:I know but….

(Mischa heads on over to the kitchen)

Mischa:Please don’t explain because I know you and you’ll take forever explaining

John-Paul:You really do know well don’t you?

Mischa:Well We’ve been married almost 3 years

John-Paul:That’s true and I have big plans for our Wedding Anniversary tomorrow night

Mischa:Yeah well about that….

John-Paul:What happened?

Mischa:Well It’s our 3rd wedding anniversary and I don’t feel like making it a big deal

John-Paul:It’s our 3rd wedding anniversary Mischa.It IS a big deal!

Mischa:Well we made a big deal out of the 1st and the 2nd….

John-Paul:But the 3rd is more important

Mischa:How so?

John-Paul:Because When your married for 3 years it’s….it’s….it’s more than 2

Mischa:Well that’s kind of expected being that 3 is higher than 2 when it comes to numbers

John-Paul:It’s just that I love you and I had this whole big romantic evening set up and I got you a present yesterday and….

Mischa:I thought we said no presents on our Wedding Anniversaries

John-Paul:I know but this is just a small little something

Mischa:How small?

John-Paul:Small

Mischa:Itsy-Bitsy Small?

John-Paul:I don’t know if I’d say itsy-bitsy small but it’s pretty damn small

Mischa:I hope IT’s not pretty damn small for our wedding anniversary

John-Paul:That wasn’t funny

Mischa:I know I was just trying to lighten up the mood.Anyway, to change subjects for a second, We have Dr.Delaney in 6 hours

John-Paul:Why do we still have to go to that loony couples’ therapist anyway?

Mischa:Because my dad wants us to and We’ve been seeing her for 3 years already

John-Paul:I understand that but Why did he want us to see her in the 1st place?

Mischa:Because We decided to run off and get married at 14 for no apparent reason

John-Paul:We loved each other and we still do

Mischa:Yes but to my dad that’s no apparent reason

(Murphy enters)

John-Paul:We really need to lock that door

Murphy:Oh great.Are you guys STILL married?

Mischa:Yes dad and We’re staying married whether you like it or not

Murphy;Oh My.There is no god.THERE IS NO GOD!

Mischa:Your right.There isn’t.He doesn’t exist

(Opening Credits)

(Dr.DeLane Delaney’s office.John-Paul and Mischa are sitting down on a couch together)

DeLane:So I understand that tomorrow is your 3rd wedding anniversary

John-Paul:Your right.It is

DeLane:I was right.I knew that I’d be right.A little birdie told me that I would be right

John-Paul:Did he really?

DeLane:Actually it was a she

John-Paul:Ah

DeLane:You know, The 3rd anniversary is The Leather Anniversary

John-Paul:Is it really?

DeLane:Yes it is

Mischa;Well, As you should already know, John-Paul and I usually don’t exchange gifts on our wedding anniversary

DeLane:Why not?

Mischa:I’ve explained this to you a million times already but because we have each other and that’s the most important present in the world but this year John-Paul went out and got me some sort of present for some strange-ass reason

John-Paul:I saw it and I knew that you would like it

Mischa:What is it?

John-Paul:You’ll find out tomorrow

Mischa:Can you just give me a little clue as for what it might be?

John-Paul:It’s something that you’ve never had before

Mischa:Ok but What the hell is it?

John-Paul:I’m not telling you

Mischa:Why not?

John-Paul:You can wait until tomorrow night

Mischa:Ok

DeLane:Well Time’s up Kiddies.I’ll see you for your next session whenever the hell that is

(Herrington and McCloud’s Café and Booksellers.John-Paul and Joe are sitting down at a table sipping lattes)

John-Paul:You know, This is where Mischa and I had our 1st date.We were actually sitting at this very table

Joe:But What’s REALLY important is what you were eating.I hope you remember that or your whole life is ruined

John-Paul:I remember it like it was yesterday.She was eating a lightly toasted Salmon and brie sandwich with an Iced Tea as her beverage while I was savoring the many tastes of a Brie,Pesto and Sun-Dried tomato wrap all wrapped up in a spinach wrap thing with a Chai as my beverage

Joe:I take that back.You have no life

(John-Paul and Mischa’s apartment.Mischa and Jameson are there and are sitting on the couch together sipping hot tea)

Mischa:I mean, normally John-Paul and I don’t exchange presents for our anniversary but this year he just decided he wanted to.Should I tell him not to give it to me?

Jameson:Are you kidding? It’s a well-known fact that women are supposed to be spoiled by their boyfriends

Mischa:That’s a big old cliché first of all and second of all John-Paul isn’t my boyfriend.He’s my husband

Jameson:Same thing

Mischa:Ok maybe it’s the same thing but I just don’t want to be spoiled you know? I mean, John-Paul and I have always thought of each other as equals and I love him but I just don’t think that I can accept a present from him if I didn’t get him one in return

Jameson:I can’t believe you call yourself a woman

(Later that night.John-Paul and Mischa’s bedroom.John-Paul and Mischa are in their bed together.Neither of them can sleep.They spring up)

John-Paul and Mischa:I love you.I’m sorry.Sorry about what? Sorry about everything.I’m sorry too

(John-Paul and Mischa kiss)

John-Paul:Mischa I know it’s not our anniversary yet but I’ve decided to give you your present right now

Mischa:Oh you really don’t have to

John-Paul:But I choose to because I love you

Mischa:Ok, Ok now cut the chit-chat and show me what you got me

John-Paul:So you remember how I proposed to you?

Mischa:Well technically you didn’t.We just decided to get married to drive my dad nuts and because we loved each other

John-Paul:Well, Now It’s time for the real proposal

Mischa:What do you mean by the real proposal?

(John-Paul opens his night stand and pulls out an engagement ring)

John-Paul:Mischa Alexis Santana Will you marry me?

Mischa:Your so sweet

John-Paul:Thanks but I need an answer

Mischa;Yeah.Why not?

(John-Paula and Mischa kiss)

John-Paul:I love you Mischa

Mischa:I love you too John-Paul.I’m sorry I didn’t get you anything though

John-Paul:That’s ok.I have you.That’s all that matters to me

Mischa:Then Why did you get me the ring?

John-Paul:Because I know that you always wanted a traditional proposal since I’ve known you since We were 2 and the fact that you had your 1st period on our wedding night

Mischa:I’m sorry about that.I was a late bloomer

John-Paul:So instead of sex we had to try to clean blood off of your wedding dress

(John-Paul and Mischa laugh)

Mischa:Once again, I’m sorry

John-Paul:That’s ok Mischa because in a way, that was the best thing the ever happen to me.You were the best thing to ever happen to me.Happy Anniversary

(John-Paul and Mischa kiss)

Mischa;Happy Anniversary
