Reasons why we love them:

1. Because he said she was his future.
2. Because when he found out she was pregnant with his baby at 17, he was there for her.
3. Because he gave up his future in basketball for her and the baby.
4. Because she’s his stone cold fox.
5. Because he couldn’t enjoy the big game unless he knew what was bothering her.
6. Because he proposed and they married.
7. Because, 20 years later, they made it through the rough times.
8. Because, even with an age gap of 20 years, the chemistry was still undeniably there.
9. Because when he first met her, he was so nervous.
10. Because she wanted to smell that ‘teenager’ that looked just like her husband.
11. Because to him, she’s worth better than carnations.
12. Because he didn’t mind at all to ‘go there’ with her.
13. Because he was amazed by her gardening talents.
14. Because to him, she just looked like she could move.
15. Because, even when he gets to do his life over, he choses to win her back.
16. Because he called her Scar, and her husband is the only one who ever calls her that.
17. Because she called him a weirdo little MAN-child, after the inappropriate kiss she knew she enjoyed.
18. Because he’s been in love with the same girl since he was 17.
19. Because after twenty years, he still remembers when he first saw her, what she wore and what she was reading.
20. Because it was love at first sight, and he had to have her, or he’d die.

Mike:“Oh man, over there… who’s that stone cold fox?
Oh, it’s my girlfriend!”

Mike:“Oh hey, there’s my girl.”
Scarlet:“Hey.”
Mike:“I’m glad you’re here Scar, this whole scout-thing makes me wicked nervous.”

Mike:“You okay?”
Scarlet:“Uh… You know, we can talk about it later.”
Mike:“No. No, just tell me.”
Scarlet:“No, it’s your big night.”
Mike:“No, tell me what’s going on.”
Scarlet: “No, go enjoy it.”
Mike:“I can’t enjoy it unless you tell me what’s going on.”

Mike:“Scar… Scar. Hey, Scarlet… What are you doing?”
Scarlet:“Mike, what are you doing?”
Mike:“You and me, where’s in this together, okay?”
Scarlet:“But, the game, that’s your future, you have to…”
Mike:“No, the baby is my future…”
Scarlet:“That’s crazy, Mike no…”
Mike:“… You are my future.”
Scarlet:“I can’t let you throw this all away, I won’t you throw it away…”

Mike:“It’s gonna be amazing, Scar.”
Scarlet:“What did you just call me?”
Mike:“Uh… I just said it’s gonna be amazing.”
Scarlet:“You called me Scar… My husband’s the only one who ever calls me that.”

Mike:“Could you use some help? Volunteer, I’m young, I’m strong.”
Scarlet:“Oh… Oh, right. Got it. Okay… Y… I realize that whole lady cougar-hunting, the mothers I’d like to…
you know, whatever-thing is big with you guys, right? With you high school boys…”
Mike:“Uh…”
Scarlet:“But that’s not gonna happen, between me and you…”
Mike:“I didn’t even mean it that way. No, I was thinking more along the lines of business experience, college application, but if you wanna go there, that’s…”

Mike:“You’re an amazing dancer.”
Scarlet:“What?”
Mike:“Hm?... You just look like you could move.”

Mike:“I think you’re a great mother…”
Scarlet:“Thank you... This has been a really tough time and… and you really feel like, part of the family.”
Mike:“You have no idea how amazing it is to hear you say that.”

Mike:“Scarlet. Scarlet, Scarlet! I’m not Mark, okay? I’m him, I’m me! I’m… Scarlet, I’m your husband!”
Scarlet:“Stop it!”
Mike:“No, if you just listen to me, I’m the father of your children! Scar, let me explain!”
“Don’t call me that. Don’t call me that! You are a weirdo, little man-child!”

Mike:“Scarlet, before you go through with this, I wanna remind you of September 7th, 1988.
It was the first time that I saw you. You were reading Less Than Zero, and you were wearing a Guns 'n' Roses t-shirt.
I'd never seen anything so perfect. I remember thinking that I had to have you or I'd die...
Then you whispered that you loved me at the homecoming dance, and I felt so peaceful... and safe...
because I knew that no matter what happened, from that day on, nothing can ever be that bad...
because I had you. And then I, uh... I grew up and I lost my way. And I blamed you for my failures.
And I know that you think you have to do this today... but I don't want you to.
But I guess... if I love you, I should let you move on.”
