Julie's pov:

Friendly reminder,
If you decide to walk to the movie theater, make sure to bring a Jacket.

That pretty much summarizes my mood. Right now, I'm walking to the theatre to meet up with Gianna. I'm surprised my parents even let me go, it's 8:00 at night and it won't end until 10:00. Plus it's a school night.

They were probably just surprised that I actually made a friend and wanted me to hang out with them.

Thanks parents.

I see the lights coming from the building and just decide to sprint it.

What? It's cold...

I enter through the main doors to see Gianna standing off to the side on her phone.

I quickly take a chance to sneak up behind her.

"Hey stranger!!" I shout into her ear. She jumps up and drops her phone on the ground.

Good thing the floor is carpeted or it probably would have cracked.

"Julie!!!" She yells at me while holding her chest.

"Yes?" I say as innocently as I can, but I end up laughing because of the state she was in.

"You scared the crap out of me." She says but ends up laughing too.

We head to the booth and decide to watch a newer movie that came out.

"Wait so what are we watching?" I ask Gianna as she hands me my ticket.

"I honestly have no idea, I just picked out a random movie."

I laugh at her as we walk to the food station.

Because the most important thing to do at a movie theatre is get food.

...

What? Did you think that the movie was the reason why you were there?

"What do you want?" She asks pulling out her purse.

"I could honestly eat anything, but I'm kinda full so nothing too big."

Yeah, my parents kinda force fed me because they said that movie snacks were way more than they should be, and that it's more reasonable just to eat at home.

They weren't wrong though, ten dollars for a small popcorn? Who came up with this!

After we decide just to share one popcorn, we find our seats and pick the middle row of the theatre.

"I really hope this isn't a horror movie." Gianna says from beside me.

"Wait... you didn't check if this was a horror movie or not?!"

If it is, I am straight up RUNNING out of the theatre.

"I kinda... forgot?"

I shake my head at Gianna as we focus our attention to all of the ads playing on the movie screen.

It starts to get crowded as more people pile in.

"There are sure a lot of people." I whisper to Gianna.

She nods her head as we watch more people walk in.

I turn my head back to the screen, but suddenly hear Gianna gasp from beside me.

She starts shaking my arm and points to the people who just walked in.

When my eyes adjust, I suddenly start to feel the color in my face completely drain.

Walking in were Ashton, Zander, Jake, Luke and Damien.

I don't know why, but for some reason I just didn't want them to notice me.

It's not that I was embarrassed to be with them, I just didn't want them to be embarrassed to be with me.

I sink back in my seat and try my best to make my hair fall onto the side of my face.

Now I really need that jacket.

I think back to last night when me and Ashton were talking to each other across our windows, I'm a young one?

Yeah right.

I look at Gianna to see her stealing glances at the boys, more particularly Jake.

Oh right, she has a major crush on him.

If I were to play match maker, I could totally see those two together.

I also identified that Luke had a girl around his arm.

I'm pretty sure I have seen her on the Volleyball team before.

Samantha I think?

"Gianna your crush just walk-.." but she quickly covers my mouth with her hand.

Huh, I just realized she tends to do that a lot.

"Shhh Julie he might hear you." She says in a soft, yet strict whisper.

I hold in my giggle as the light from the big screen flashed upon her red face.

"Okay, okay sorry." I say lightly laughing at how embarrassed she got even talking about him.

I look back to see that they are about three rows behind us.

The lights of the movie theatre start to get dark as the beginning credits of the movie start to play.

And....

This....

Is....

A....

Horror...

Movie.......

Me and Gianna both gulp as we look at each other and back at the screen sinking even deeper in the seats.

We were five minutes in when I heard a series of laughing and "shhhh's" behind me. I start to hear shuffling around until a loud scream crosses the whole entire room.

But it didn't come from the movie.

"What did you do??!" I hear a woman scream.

Everyone who was at first too focused on the movie turned around to see a woman that had blue and red ice all through her hair and on the back of her shirt. She was glaring at a group of boys sitting behind her.

But those weren't just any boys.

"I have no idea what you are talking about madam." Ashton says holding back his laugh as he looks up at the girls red and blue hair.

"You spilled your icy all over me!!" She screams at him.

I can see another man, probably her boyfriend or husband try to calm her down but she pushes him away and points at Ashton.

At this point, I don't think anyone in the theatre was paying attention to the actual movie playing.

"I'm actually really offended that you think I would do that." Ashton says holding his hand over his heart.

I tend to notice that he does this a lot to try and make the other person feel bad even though he is only joking.

Zander I guess decides to join in the conversation because he pats Ashton on the back. "Don't be sad Ashy, I don't think this mean lady meant it."

"Excuse me, we expect an apology" Jake says to the lady crossing his arms trying to contain his smirk.

I knew what they were doing and I wanted to break down laughing right here, but no way am I having all the attention on me.

"But.. He.. I." The lady says at a loss of words.

When I thought she was going to apologize she did the unthinkable.

She jumped over the seat and punched Ashton!!

Everyone in the theatre gasped. I look over to Ashton to see that he looked fine. Not even a single bruise laid on his oh so perfect face.

Two security guards grabbed the back of the lady's arms and forced her out of the theatre followed by her boyfriend or husband cursing silently behind them.

After that, no one really said anything and everyone sat back down.

No one really knew what was happening though because we missed about five minutes of the movie.

It took that long to get her out because the lady was kicking and fighting back with the security guards.

"Well, that was interesting." Gianna whispers from beside me.

"It sure was." And this time, I really meant it.

~~~~~~~~

Finally, after 90 minutes of torture watching the movie that made me want to shove my face in a pillow... everyone started to leave the theatre.

You know, me and Gianna leaving scarred for life.

Gianna's ride pulled up and we said goodbye to each other.

I actually called my mom to pick me up this time because there was no way I was walking out in the cold...

Again.

Though she wouldn't be here for another five minutes so I decided to just sit down and wait on my phone.

"Dude I can't believe you actually got away with that." I hear a voice say. I look over to see the boys and the Samantha girl talking to one another just standing around.

"Yeah I can't believe she punched you!" Jake exclaims.

I look over to see all the boys laughing, but Samantha was just standing there with Luke's hand around her waist.

She seemed to be staring at something very intensely, more importantly, Ashton.

Hey I'm not stalking..

Again.

I'm just watching...

Kinda.

I decide to stand up, but that wasn't a good idea because I suddenly hear what I really didn't want to hear at all.

"JULIE!!!!" I hear Zander scream.

I turn around slowly to see all the boys staring right at me.

"Uh hey guys!" I say giving a little wave. They all speed walk over and in the next second they are standing right in-front of me. I look down from all the stares.

"What are you doing here?" Damien asks.

"You know... just hanging around" I say jokingly. I look back up to be met with the same blue eyes from last night.

"What movie did you see?" Ashton asks not breaking eye contact.

At this, I pull out a half smile, then a grin. They all look confused until I say..

"It wasn't a very interesting movie, but something happened where this idiotic group of boys decided to get a lady mad in the theatre resulting in her punching one of them and being thrown out." I say in one breath.

It takes them a second to comprehend what I said until their eyes widen.

Ashton awkwardly scratches the back of his neck, "I didn't know you were in there princess."

I just laugh at this and roll my eyes.

"Yeah why didn't we see you?" Luke asks.

But I only shrug my shoulders.

Suddenly Samantha decides to speak up, "Who is she?"

I can see that she keeps looking between me and Ashton.

Strange.

"I'm Julie.. who are you?" I ask ignoring how she rudely asked who I was first.

She flicks her hair off the side of her shoulder, "I'm Samantha."

Called it.

"Luke's newest flavor of the week." I hear Jake say under his breath.

I think everyone heard it except Luke. We all stifle a laugh while Samantha glare's at him.

He shifts his feet under her stare.

I look back at Ashton to see that he is now standing beside me.

I look at him questionably but he doesn't seem to notice.

But of course, Zander does and he smirks.

Everyone starts to talk while I check my phone to see that my mom got stuck in traffic and that she wouldn't  be here for another couple minutes.

I look back up to see Samantha looking at me...

Not in the nicest way...

Buy why? I just met her and she already hates my guts.

She unwraps herself from Luke's hold, which he some how doesn't notice because he is talking to Jake and Damien, and she walks over to the other side of Ashton.

She doesn't say anything though, she just stands there while Zander looks at her questionably.

"Oh guys my ride is here." Damien says and walks out.

"Mine too!"

"Me three!" Both Zander and Jake say.

They all walk out until it's just me, Ashton, Luke and Samantha.

Luke now realizes that Samantha isn't by him and he walks over to her and slings his arm over her.

"My parents won't be here for another couple minutes baby" He says to her.

But she just hums in response.

I mumble a gross under my breath while Ashton mumbles a yuck.

We both look at each other and stifle a giggle as we both realize we said it at the same time.

Suddenly, his phone goes off and he reads it before rolling his eyes and putting it back in his pocket.

"My father can't pick me up, guess I'm walking home." He says, a little angrily and turns around.

But I quickly grab his wrist before he even takes a step.

"Hey my mom is picking me up, she can drive us home." I say to him.

He raises his eyebrows and I realize I just told him we are going to my house. " I.. I mean to your house.. you know.. since we are neighbors.." I say looking anywhere but his face.

He laughs while saying a "Sure" the same time my mom honks her horn.

We both walk to the car and sit in the back.

She looks at Ashton questionably but I just tell her he needed a ride home.

And that... was the most awkward five minutes of my life.

And yes, I use the word awkward a lot, but if you met me, you would understand why.

"So Ashton.. how is life going?" My mom asks from the drivers seat.

I literally put my head in my hands while I hear her firing out questions.

"Um... good?" He says more like a question.

But she didn't stop there, oh no, she just kept firing them off one after another.

"Your mom?"

"She's good."

"School?"

"It's happening."

"How was the movie?"

"Entertaining."

And every question that she asked, the more I wanted to shove my face into a pillow.

We finally pull up to our neighborhood and get to where our houses are it.

And my luck, they are the farthest from the entry into the neighborhood.

We stop right in-front of Ashton's house before pulling into our garage.

Ashton opens the door and is just about to close it until he turns around and looks at me.

"See you tomorrow Julie." He says giving me his famous smirk.

He shuts the door and my mom turns around and gives me an accusing look.

"Julie....."

Hey Guys!! Hope you enjoyed this chapter!!

Will she be returning in any of the next chapters?

Love you all so much!!
