[Part 10] Ode To The Big Screen

Haha. Hello again. Sorry.

I've had this part on Quizilla since... *looks*... Dec. 31... Wow... that's a long time. Lmao. Sorry.


Well, here you go.

"My parent's anniversary!"

"Oh!! Shit..." he said, putting the palm of his hand to his forehead.

"Does that mean you have nothing planned?" We always did something on my parent's anniversary, since they would be gone the whole day and the house would be empty, even when George was still living with us.

He grabbed my hands and looked into my eyes. "How about... we go see a movie."

I started laughing. "Sure. But what about the rest of the day. Our little date can't last until tomorrow morning."

"What if it can?" he said, still holding my hands. I raised an eyebrow. His eyes widened, "NO!! Not like that!"

"You are sick."

"No, you are. I didn't even think of it like that."

"So? You were the one who said it in the first place."

Mike let go of me, smiling, and started to walk away. A few steps forward and he looked back at me. "Well? Are you coming or not?" I rolled my eyes and shook my head slightly, "Fine!" I walked towards him and when I finally caught up, we walked together as his arm was lightly wrapped around my waist. "So? What movie?" Mike thought for a moment, "Umm, we'll see."

---

At the movie theater, Mike had me put some of the junk in his car into the trash as he was getting the tickets. I walked back over to him, finding that he already bought the tickets. "So? What is it?"

He grinned. "It's a surprise."

I rolled my eyes. He was like that a lot. We grabbed seats and Mike got some Coke and a big bag of popcorn for us to share. We munched on the popcorn as the trailers were playing. When the movie finally started, I felt a smile forcing to show on my face. I shook my head, silently laughing to myself. The opening scene gave away the movie... it was The Ring 2.

Mike must've noticed I was smiling. "What?" he whispered.

"You realize this is the sequel to one of my favorite movies?"

"Well, yeah. I told you it was a surprise, didn't I?" He grinned.

"Hey," said the guy sitting behind us leaning forward, his voice hoarse and scratchy, "If you two don't shut up, I'll make you." We both tried our best not to crack up then.

I watched the movie with much interest, although noticing that Mike would glance at me now and then. When the audience would scream or make weird noises, I would laugh at their reaction. The first movie was scarier than this.

The girl sitting close to me, around 12, I believe, screamed and I felt something touch my hand. After five months of going out, he was still afraid if it was the right choice to touch me or not. I looked at his hand slightly touching mine, then up at Mike to meet his eyes. His blue eyes were reflecting the images from the screen. My own hand slowly moved on top of his as our lips touched. We broke apart and exchanged smiles.
Later, we walked out of the cinema, hand in hand. We stood by the wall outside, waiting for the place to clear before we would head back home. I held my coat closer to me as a strong breeze blew by.

"Are you cold?" asked Mike, looking at me.

I shook my head, "No, I'm fine."

"You sure?"

I nodded, still looking up at him, since he was at least half a foot taller than me. He leaned down and my eyes instinctively closed by themselves as we kissed. Mike added some tongue into it, wrapping his arms around me. I could've melted in his arms then. I always felt so warm and safe when he held me.

I removed my lips from his, and looked at the ground, smiling widely. I looked at the sky. It was overcast and just past sunset. I took a deep breath, feeling revived by the fresh air. Another breeze swept past.

Mike let go of me and grabbed my hand once more. I felt cold where his arms had left. We walked over to his car and got in, driving to his house.

I wrote this part WAY back when Ring 2 came out in theaters. Yes, that WAS a looooooong time ago, indeed.


I only decided to get this out, as I started downloading music (legally, mind you) when I was supposed to be on google trying to start the extended research thingy for Health, so I just might as well do this, as it takes up less... work from the computer (compared to a game) as I waited for it to download. I've already downloaded "Ex's And Oh's" by Atreyu, then I decided to look for another song, and I discovered I overlooked "I'm So Sick" by Flyleaf (a metal-ish band with a female singer), so obviously, I had to get that. And I've got 3 min. left until it's done... so yeah.

I have NO clue when I'll get the next part out. But I'm absolutely POSITIVE I'll get more than a few parts out during summer vacation, so you might have to wait until then. School get's out June 23, just so you can mark your calendar.


I don't get enough messages/comments off of this story.

OH!!! That reminds me! I wrote a story (If Words Could Kill), and it's like the FIRST story I've finished off my own time (aka not for school or a contest), so it's kinda like a short story, I guess. Or a mini-movel. But it's seriously good. It's a sort of bang, bang, bang, it's over, but I LOVED writing it.

It's about a girl in the Elizabethan times (I started writing it while we were reading Romeo and Juliet in class and finished it... possibly when we were reading Midsummer Night's Dream... possibly...) who is born into a rich family. Her name is Lisha. She's 15. And she gets a new servant that is slightly older than her. And guess what? He's cute. Duh. And then... stuff happens. Everything gets worse and worse.

But yeah, I loved and still love it. It does need editing, but I'll do that as I type it up. You MIGHT be seeing it on this blog, but I just might make a new one for it, even though it's short. But since There's Nothing Left To Do might be quite long (not sure), it might be a good idea for them to be separate... So yeah.



Freaky... I actually feel like working on stuff....
