Owen and Knox

6. It's a date

Owen POV

After i got ready, Knox and i went downstairs to see most of my family sat in the living room.

"We're just about to order some Indian, what would you both like?" My abuelo Logan looked between Knox and I.

"Knox is t-taking me out f-for dinner t-tonight f-for being a dick s-so y-you don't have to w-worry about us." I told him.

"Alright. Do you need any money?" My dad got his wallet out.

"No, it's all good. My treat anyway so no money is needed." Knox told him.

"A-are you sure? I-I c-can pay." I looked up at him. Like Tristan, Knox towers over me standing at six foot four while i'm here at five foot four.

"Nope. Now lets go. Mother dearest i will have your son home by midnight if you want him home earlier just give me a text and he shall be here not a moment later." Knox looked at my mum.

"Okay Knox, just keep him safe." She smiled at him. "Have fun you two and be safe. I know what you're like Knox Elias Barnes, keep both of you safe."

"Will do. See you all later." He chuckled. After we all said our goodbyes, Knox and i left the house and walked to town where the cinema was.

"What should we do first? Dinner then film, or film then dinner?" Knox asked me.

"I-I don't m-mind." I told him.

"Okay, what about we get some food snacky bits so we don't fill up on sugar? We can get that from the shop then get some popcorn and cheesy nachos to share. And of course we'll be getting those cool cups that we can take home." He smiled at me.

"That s-sounds expensive. Y-you r-really don't have t-to get me anything." I sighed a little.

"Owen, tonight is about you. I was a dick so let me treat my best friend, okay? Don't worry about the amount, i got paid yesterday so we is good to go." Knox stated.

"Y-you make it s-sound like a d-date." I rolled my eyes with a small smile.

"Do you want it to be a date?" Knox smirked at me making me flip him off.

"You're a dick." I laughed. "And n-no, i don't w-want this to be a d-date."

"Perfect, it's a date. Owen, oh Owen. My perfectly short, handsome bitchy date. Will you accept me? Will you be my lover for the night?" He said in a sarcastic playful way.

"You're so weird." I laughed at my friend. Knox smiled at me and pulled me to his side wrapping an arm around my waist.

"You like my weirdness. Don't fight it Owen, you know you love me." He smiled down at me.

"Sadly i do." I giggled.

"You don't love me?" Knox gasped dramatically. "Well then, i see how it is." Before i could think about what was happening, i was thrown over Knox's shoulder making me dangle as he held my legs.

"Enjoying the view?" He wiggled his arse in my face.

"Knox p-put me d-down now." I laughed. My cheeks started hurting from smiling too much.

"Nope. You can enjoy looking at my perfect arse from there. Don't fight it Owen, i know you love my arse." My friend chuckled.

"N-no i don't." I shouted and slapped his backside hard. Knox let out a small squeak only for him to slap my arse right next to his face. My cheeks heated up when i realised how close my bum was to his face. I could always lean up, yet i didn't want to, nor did i want Knox to put me down.

After a while of walking and laughing, we reached town and went into the Tesco near by to get snacks. Knox of course went all out while i only chose some strawberry laces, fizzy rainbow belts and a bottle of dr pepper. Whereas Knox got bags of crisps, chocolate, sweets and a few bottles of drink.

"You sure that's all you want?" Knox asked me.

"Y-yeah. The t-tickets will be a lot s-so i d-don't want to waste a-all your money." I nodded as we queued up. Knox let out a sigh but left it, i know for a fact he will try and share his snacks with me but i'll refuse, i always do until he holds me down and makes me eat it.

When we got to the cinema, Knox surprised me with the film which i know for a fact is horror. I don't mind horror unlike Knox, he hates them and ends up getting nightmares over it. He got us popcorn to share, why i don't know seeing as we had a bunch of stuff anyway and just like he said, cups that were ridiculously expensive which he insisted on us getting so we can have a slushy and when we finish those we can use them for our own drinks.

When we got to the screen room, i saw that it was the new mamma mia film that i wanted to watch. "I thought you chose a horror." I laughed a little.

"I was close to choosing it, but i know how much you want to see this so i got the tickets to mamma mia instead. Maybe we can watch another after and it be a horror if you like. We have enough snacks to last us at least two films ayway." He smiled at me.

"I d-don't mind." I told him.

"Then it's settled, we will watch another film after this." He winked at me.

After we finished mamma mia, which was amazing, we went to get tickets for IT chapter 2 which i was kind of excited for. I really liked the first one and the original, Knox was shitting bricks i could tell. I offered to watch a different film but he refused and took me to the screen room.

In there, we sat down again and waited for it to start.

"A-are you sure? W-we can s-still leave i-if you want to." I told him.

"No, it's all good." Knox smiled at me.
