Carl barely slept through the night. He was no longer in his haunted mansion, but that didn't stress him less one bit. He watched his phone, going through each contact until he ended on Flynn. His phone rang, and he waited impatiently for the lizard's reaction.
Finally, after what seemed like an hour but was only five minutes, the gila answered:
"Are you insane? It's barely dawn yet. You know I have to get to work!"
"I know, but please hear me out."
A pause.
"I'm listening, fatass."
Carl sighed.
"I love you."
Another pause.
"Seriously? You waked me up just for that? I love you too, but I don't wake up your obese ass whener I like!"
Carl sighed again.
"I've been thinking, and I think I want to marry you."
This did make the lizard gasp, and tears began to form on Carl's eyes.
"Carl..."
"I know, it was stupid, I should probably let you sleep."
"I accept."
"What!?"
"We'll discuss it later, but yeah, I'm open to marrying you. Now please let me go back to sleep."
"O-okay, sure."
Flynn turned off his phone, leaving Carl alone with his thought.
The ram cried tears of happiness, and at last could sleep again.
