Thread: Breaking two (Google and JadedSkylark)

Emma returned her gaze back to the side window. She saw the familiar buildings roll by as they progressed towards the movie theatre. There were several of theatres in the city four, to be exact. Well that is if you didnt include the IMax theatre downtown and the rinky-dink dollar theatres that made their business from playing old movies. So far she could deduct at least 2 of the theatres off the list of where they were going from the direction he was driving. She didnt bother asking though. She just trusted he had everything planned out. Afterall, none of this was exactly her idea to begin with. She raised her hand to her head and thumbed a hefty strand of her long, red hair over her shoulder to let it drape towards the front. Absently minded, she used two fingers to comb and straighten the strands. I suppose so. She answered him, petting her hair for something to do. Its just that some peoples idea of fun might be different than another persons idea of fun. She sighed and dropped her hand back to her lap, rolling her eyes to the side and shaking her head. Not that I dont care for Ashley because I do, she is my friend and all, but I just dont understand what the big deal is. She acts as though I demoralize her by choosing not to go on dates like she does. Emma wiped something imaginary off her cheek and sighed a second time, But I dont know why I am telling you this. I supposed going on a date wouldnt hurt in the long run seeing as how I am almost through with college. I might have some time in my life now for a man. She glanced sideways towards Dominic and gave him a promising smile. The theatre was one of those old ones in the city that played old movies and hardly had enough money to change the light bulbs in their parking lot. She did wonder why he had chosen this movie theatre over the more popular and attractive ones. If he hadnt have been wearing a fancy suit and driving a clean car she would have assumed he didnt have enough money to afford a better seating. But it must be a different reason, and he mentioned something about sticking to old traditions. She surmised quickly that he was trying to throw on the charm, and it kind of aligned with her in a good way. She always believed going to the theatre on a first date was a bad idea. All you did was sit in the dark room and watch a movie and never speak to each other or get to know one another. By choosing a theatre less crowded, maybe they would get a chance to talk a little bit without disrupting nearby neighbors. She hoped he wasnt one of those that talked through the entire movie though those were the worst kinds. Call her a sap, but she really enjoyed immersing herself into the storylines of movies. He opened the door for her and offered his arm, and Emma felt her face blush slightly. He really was trying to pour on the old fashioned charm! She took his arm and together they walked up to the theatre. Her heels were obnoxiously loud in her ears going clikkity clak against the pavement, and she was so happy to reach the worn out carpet of the theatre lobby so that the cushion would dull the sound. They got their tickets and headed towards the room that was going to show the movie, and once inside she commented on how empty the place was, Looks like we are the only ones right now. More might filter in before the movie starts though. She let him lead the way to pick the seats.
