"There's a kind of blushing that shows the soul, a sort of compliment to the eyes and the delicate sweetness within. It shows a connection, that the smile and shyness come from some deep emotion... and that's a beautiful thing, that's something real."

Time: 7pm, Saturday night

You lay on your comfortable bed, pillows and blankets rugged up around you surrounding your body as the sky becomes darker and darker with the time slowly passing. Your parents are out for the night and won't be home till late, so you are lucky enough to finally get the house to yourself. As you left school today, Jake raced towards you saying he would see you soon, which left you perplexed. You were assuming he would call but have absolutely no idea. As you stare out of your bedroom window admiring the night sky, you suddenly hear a soft tap coming from the front door. 

You leap from the bed and race downstairs, to see a tall silhouette standing behind the door – but you can't recognize who the figure exactly is. As you slowly open the door and peer around, your eyes become locked with a boy wearing bright blue sweats, a crystal-white oversized hoodie and auburn coloured fluffy hair. "Jake! What are you doing here?" you scream with excitement, embracing him with a tight hug. "I came to see you of course, also I brought snacks..." he exclaimed, collecting a large bag from behind him filled with delicious treats. You grab his hand with your sweater paw and walk him towards the kitchen, placing the overflowing bag of food on the table. He pours the food all over the bench while you grab a bowl for the chips, and as you spin around, you see him standing opposite gripping onto a packet of pre-made cookie dough. "Jake, you didn't!" you squeal, watching a cheeky smirk spread across his bare face. For the next 20 minutes, both of you decide to make a delicious batch of cookies, planning to not overindulge which you both find almost impossible to do. 

As the night continues, both you and Jake decide it would be best to watch a musical to sing along to, with Jake automatically requesting 'The Greatest Showman' as it was his favourite back in Australia. You both carry the endless amounts of snacks and freshly-baked gooey choc-chip cookies up to your bedroom and spread them all over the bed, with the both of you crawling underneath the warm cover of your doona adjusting the pillows to a comfortable position. 

As you grab the remote to press play, you feel a strong embrace of Jake's hand reaches around your waist drawing you closer to the warmth of his body – hearing the fast-paced thump of your beating heart. You pull your legs in towards your chest while slowly looking up at Jake, watching a twinkle in his deep brown eyes as he lay so close to you. You feel a burning sensation rise from your cheeks, ignoring the fact that the movie had already started, and that Jake was your movie.
