Eternal Darkness: Anthony's Hot Date

***

It was another sunny day in Rhode Island, and as usual, things were happening at the Roivas mansion…and everyone was there!

Edward Roivas brought down a big tin of popcorn to the basement, where his guests were watching Beavis and Butthead on the big screen. The popcorn container had reindeer and a Santa on the side, and the popcorn was separated into delicious caramel, yummy cheese and mouth-watering butter. Edward sat it down on the ground. Maximillian immediately grabbed a big handful of the cheese and the caramel and began munching loudly. Anthony, Paul, Karim, Edwin, Peter, Roberto and Mike the firefighter were all there too. Anthony, Paul and Peter were all sitting comfortably on the couch. Peter helped himself to a little bit of the buttery popcorn and began nibbling.

"How's the popcorn?" asked Paul.

"It's deeelicious!" cried Peter. "Why don't you have some!"

"Oh…I couldn't" said Paul, modestly. Robert Bianchi, who was seated on a beanbag chair that was mostly covered by his massive butt chimed in.

"Well, I'll eat his share!" He cried and stuck his whole mouth in the tin. Maximillian finished off the popcorn in his sweaty palms and began to do the same. Several pieces of the crunchy popcorn rolled out of the tin and onto the dusty floor. Edwin Lindsey carefully dusted the stray pieces off, and nibbled on them.

Paul excused himself to the bathroom.

"Hey everyone!" cried Edward. "Let's go to the monster trux rally tonight!"

"Yeah!" exclaimed Mike. Everyone else agreed….except Anthony!

Anthony looked shy on the bench.

"Anthony!" exclaimed Edwin. "Why don't you want to go to the monster trux rally? It's going to be so much fun!"

Paul came back into the room and wiped his mouth.

"Well," began Anthony, "It's just that I already have plans to go see a movie with Ellia…if you know what I mean." He smiled.

"Well…" said Maximillian. "I don't mind seeing a movie tonight!"

Everyone cheered!

"What shall we see?" asked Karim. "I want to see Aladdin!"

"No way." said Mike. "We're going to see Blacula and that's that."

"Aladdin!" shouted Karim.

"Blacula!" yelled Mike. They glared at each other.

"I want to see Heavyweights!" exclaimed Roberto.

"Me too," agreed Maximillian.

"I'm partial to Ghostbusters II," pondered Paul.

"I'd rather see Casper," said Peter.

"Why not Mr. Wrong?" asked Edward. Everyone anxiously talked about the movies that they wanted to see.

"Well…it was just going to be Ellia and me…" chirped Anthony quietly.

"We don't mind coming!" said Edwin.

"But we were going to see My Boyfriend's Back," whimpered Anthony.

"Perfect!" cried Karim.

"That movie sucks!" cried Mike.

"Let's all go home and get ready for the movie!" yelled Roberto.

Peter and Paul walked outside together.

"You know," began Peter, "I wish I was as thin as you. It's so hard for me to resist food!"

"Don't ever say that!" yelled Paul. "You don't understand what it's like…"

"I'm sorry," said Peter. "I guess I don't understand."

"I AM SO FAT!" sobbed Paul. He ran out of sight.

"Gee…I really messed up," mewled Peter.

That night, as Anthony was waiting for his date with Ellia, he saw their friends Van and Marcy on a date.

"Hello Vanella!" cried Anthony. He saw them lust after one another and sensed the true love between them. "How can I have true love with Ellia?" he asked.

Van began to sing a song to Marcy then…

(To the tune of "Macarena")

I love Marcy she's so pretty and I want to hold her
She's the perfect woman and she's got this loving all about her
I love Marcy and I want the loving to me from her…
HEYYYY VAN AND MARCY!

"Wow!" cried Anthony. "That was so good! Can you make me one?"

Vanella collaborated for a moment, and then began to sing:

(To the tune of "MMMBop!")

Ellia! Ooh ooh Ellia! I wanna love you!
Ellia! I love youuuu…yeah yeah!
Ellia! Ooh ooh Ellia! My heart is for you!
Ellia…and Anthony too!

Then Ellia showed up!

"Hi Vanella!" she cried.

"Hi Ellia!" they said in unison.

"Ellia," cried Marcy. "Beware of strange men. One of them here looked at me and I was lucky to escape the almost barely close to a near rape." She cried but Van comforted her. They left secretly lusting after each other.

Then Paula Abdul appeared.

Then the gang appeared!

"What is everyone doing here on our date!?" cried Ellia.

"Date?!" asked Edward.

"Well color us surprised!" laughed Edwin.

"I'm sorry Ellia, I didn't have the guts to tell them," said Anferny.

"It's ok," said Ellia. "There will be another chance."

"Yay! Everything is alright!" cried Mike.

"No it isn't you ignorant fool!" yelled Karim.

"Paul! I bought us some jujubes and popcorn!" yelled Peter.

Paul immediately ate them all and ran to the bathroom. Then they all went to the movie.

Anthony sat next to Ellia. They secretly lusted after each other and held hands. The rest of the gang made a ruckus! They saw Bob Barker.

Ellia went to the bathroom. The porter ripping tickets looked at her and smiled. "I hope you are enjoying the film!" he said. Ellia immediately panicked and ran back into the theater. She sat next to Anthony, but didn't hold his hand. The rest of the gang laughed as Johnny Dingle dreamed that his weewee fell off. For the rest of the movie, Anthony noticed Ellia was tense. Peter noticed that Paul left for the bathroom a lot and smelled like a dorm toilet on a Saturday night. Karim and Mike uttered racial epithets at each other. Maximillian and Roberto ate a lot of popcorn!

After the movie, everyone sat together at Lookout Point.

"You would be cool if you weren't Arabian," said Mike to Karim.

"You would be cool if you weren't black" said Karim.

"Let's never be racist again!" they embraced.

***

"I have a problem," said Paul to Peter.

"What is it?" said Peter.

"I am anorexic and bulimic. I am too fat."

"We must get you help"

Then they saw Falco.

***

"Ellia why did you turn away from me?"

"I don't want to talk about it."

"Ok."

"I had an almost near-rape when I went to the bathroom."

"That is bad"

"Yes I know. I will never trust a man again."

"Even me?"

"Even you." But she secretly lusted after him.

Then Anthony began secretly lusting after Paul's trim figure. How did he do it?

Then everyone went back to the Roivas mansion for some break dancing in the basement. Also Corey Haim was there.

THE END
