I wasn't lying when I said I was going to sulk in peace. My eyes were glued to the ceiling and my body was laid out like a starfish. Ha, I'm a starfish.

I picked up my phone to see it was 3:00 already. My fingers slipped from my phone and it suddenly hit my face harshly. I glared at the small object before getting up and walking to the kitchen.

Realization hit me as hard as my phone hit me once I heard my stomach growl loudly in hunger. So then I made a grilled cheese sandwich and then got a bag of chips along with water.

After I ate the food and probably looked like I was a starved homeless woman, I put the plate in the dishwasher. By now it was 3:08 so in the meantime, I played random games on my phone.

I softly slammed my phone on the counter in anger because I wasn't really in the mood to break my phone. But I was so close to getting the 2048 tile and then a stupid two had to pop up instead of a four.

I let out an annoyed groan and saw that I had one minute. Of course, I probably had a few more minutes than that because who even arrives on time?

I waited outside for what seemed like a century before a black Mustang of some sort. Wasn't it one of those 2016 Ford Mustangs or something? I don't really know, I suck at identifying cars.

     "Hey, Babe," Lucas said after he rolled down the window. "Hop in."

     I let out an annoyed sigh before going unwillingly going into the sexy car. He glanced at me and gave me a big grin before blasting Ariana Grande.

     "Oh my gosh," I mumbled when the song "One Last Time" blasted through the small speakers.

     Lucas wiggled his eyebrows at me before trying to sing in Ariana's range which was way too high for him. I rolled my eyes, trying to stay annoyed but failed miserably. Instead, I let out a small giggle.

     He nudged my shoulder with his eyes on the road. "Sing with me, Babe."

     "Ew, stop calling me babe, it's gross," I demanded with my nose scrunched up.

     "If you wish, your majesty," he replied obnoxiously.

     "Hand me your phone," I told him and he reluctantly complied.

     I smirked, going to his Spotify. I searched up a better song than what was playing right now. No offense to you, Ariana Grande. I still love you!

     A guitar started to strum ferociously and I grinned in approval. Drums started to play almost immediately after the song started.

      "Don't wanna be an American Idiot!" Lucas and I both yelled out in unison and I fist pumped the air.

      "You like Green Day?" He asked curiously with a laugh.

     "Green Day is my spirit animal," I replied, grinning as the song played somewhat loudly in the background.

My goodness, Lucas and I have something in common— it was a good thing too. Music. Bands. We both liked Green Day, which actually shocked me. I thought he liked all of that disgusting rap "music" that always mentioned weed or sex, but then again, I stereotype more than half of the time I'm with somebody.

     After about fifteen minutes of listening to Green Day, All Time Low, Panic! at the Disco, and a lot of 2010 songs which were very nostalgic, we finally arrived to the movie theater. It was difficult to find a parking space though, considering it was a Saturday in the afternoon.

     "Woo, let's go watch a cool movie!" he shouted, slinging an arm around my shoulder.

     I patted the arm gently and slowly removed it with a sorrowful expression. Yeah, that's right, I felt bad for an arm.

     He glanced at me before chuckling and running to the theater. I guess he was just vey excited about the movie. I knew I was, but Lucas was here. No offense to Lucas, but— nah, just kidding, much offense to Lucas.

     Lily and Damon were sitting on a bench inside the theater, both grinning like idiots. I just realized that this would be the first time I would actually be talking and spending time with the boy, apart from the small talks from classes in the past that he and I had together.

     "Kylie! You're here!" she squealed loudly and high-pitched and hugged me tightly.

      Damon seemed to have an amused grin on his face when she did this, which made me literally scream-think to myself that they were cute together. Who knows, maybe Damon is a good guy and was nice! Maybe.

     "Damon, hey, man," Lucas said and they both did a man hug thing. I don't know, it was like those ones you see in the movies.

     "Hey Lucas, how's life?" Damon asked and they pulled away. "Oh, and by the way, Sebastian got kicked off the soccer team."

     Oh right, Lucas plays a sport. How typical. Oops, I just stereotyped again.

     "You know, the usual. Pissing off Kylie, playing Fortnite, procrastinating on my homework. The good stuff. Why did Seb get kicked off the team? Oh God, was he caught fucking that girl in the janitor's closet?" Lucas replied, fake barfing at the end.

I knew I was close to barfing.

I didn't listen to the rest of what the two boys were talking about. Lucas is so revolting, it makes me want to slap him on the head. So I did.

He glared daggers at me and I gave him an innocent smile and tilted my head, asking, "What's wrong?"

He just rolled his eyes and started talking to Damon again like nothing had happened.

     We all got popcorn and slushes and I got a bag of Airhead Extreme Bites because I was craving candy. It was either because I'm supposed to start my period in a day and PMS is a real female dog or I just really wanted candy. I put extra butter on my popcorn and licked my lips, almost tasting the delicious popcorn from the smell. It's weird, I know.

     "That's not the only thing you'll be licking soon," Lucas abruptly commented with a wink.

     "Oh, shut up, you disgusting little... vermin," I replied snappily and scrunched my nose, grossed out at the boy's vulgar comment.

     "I meant that you'll be licking a lollipop," he said in a "duh" tone and dug into the pockets of his jeans. "Oops, never mind. I forgot to bring the lollipop, my bad."

     I rolled my eyes at him and the four of us headed towards the theater room, which was big, might I mention. It was in an IMAX and had reclining seats, which means I get to act lazy and fat while eating unhealthy beverages and have an excuse. Yay, I love movie theaters!

     The previews were now showing and I hid behind my hands at most of them because they were creepy and horrifying. I hate horror movies; they're the worst thing to be ever created apart from country music.

     I peeked through my fingers and saw Lucas smiling amusingly at me. I scowled at him with the excuse, "There was a flipping doll."

     "Just saying fucki-" Lucas said, cutting off after I clamped my hand over his mouth with a bigger scowl than before.

     "Profanity!" I shouted and felt eyes staring at me.

     Right, this is a movie theater. I forgot.

     I grinned sheepishly at them all and placed my arm on the armrest, putting my chin on top of my fist.

     "When are these horrific movie previews going to be over?" I whined with a small pout.

     Lucas chuckled humorously and then realization hit me. Lily was sitting on the other end of the four of us. I face palmed myself and groaned to myself, but also loud enough for Lily to hear. She glanced at me weirdly before going back to the conversation between Damon and her. How rude.

     "Ooh, the movie is starting, shut up kids!" I exclaimed excitedly, gaining judgmental looks once again.

     The three of my "friends," aka only Lily was my friend, chuckled and then faced to the humungous movie screen. I shoved popcorn into my mouth with a grin, happy as ever.

✄ ——————————————————————

     "Holy crap, that movie was literally everything," I said after we got out of the room.

     Two hours of my life spent watching a superhero movie. Worth it.

     "Yeah, I have to admit, it was pretty funny as well," Damon commented with a small chuckle and slung his arm around Lily. I rolled my eyes at the small giggle that came out of her mouth at the action Damon did.

     "You know, we can do that t-" Lucas commented before I cut him off.

     "No," I replied curtly and he put his hands in the air in that gesture that said "I surrender" or something like that.

     He pouted, "Why so mean?"

     I smirked at his reaction, "Why so annoying?"

     He put his hand to his chest in over dramatic offense and exclaimed with the same pout, "I am not annoying!"

     I laughed teasingly and my the corners of my lips went up subconsciously. It was probably from his cute pou- I mean, his nothing. Just my imagination, I think. Yep, I'm pretty delusional.

     But in the back of my mind I knew I was starting to favor Lucas hecking King.
