so in honour of 60k reads & 1.85k votes ( and to give you guys a break from all the sadness lately😭 ) here's a special short bonus chapter on the day jaelin & robin went to the drive-in!! :))
❝ show me how you CARE, tell me how you loved before, show me how you SMILE! ❞
show me how, men i trust.
ROBIN'S UNCLE PARKED his truck at the drive-in, so that the back of his truck was facing the big projector. the two teens were able to persuade their mothers into letting robin's uncle take them to see texas chainsaw massacre, with the held of robin's uncle of course.
before they came, they prepared a ton of blankets, pillows, snacks and drinks. mostly because they couldn't be bothered to go up and keep buying things during the movie.
even though they've seen the movie once before, they couldn't admit the real reason for the excuse was that they wanted to be next to each other throughout the whole movie.
you'd expect them to be sick of each other by how much they hang out, but you'd be wrong.
plus, it was around 8pm at night. the only light source was the big screen and a bunch of dimly lit lanterns scattered around the area. other than that, it was very dark out.
robin didn't want jaelin wondering off to go buy snacks, since she could get lost or something bad may happen. he knew jaelin was careful but that didn't mean he couldn't be protective of her.
"right, you kids set up because it's about to start. i'm gonna use the bathroom really quickly." robin's uncle raymond told them before heading to the outdoor cubicles.
the two teens got out of the car and brought everything to the back of the truck. they opened the back part, making them easily slip in and out of the truck. from there, they laid out different blankets and pillows with a small lanterns in each corner.
to say it was comfy was an understatement. him and jaelin were already dress in home clothes, so they didn't need to worry about that.
once the two finished setting up and got comfortable next to each other, jaelin took out her polaroid from her bag and held it up in front of her and robin.
she nudged him, making him looking up and notice the camera. he wrapped his arm around her shoulder as jaelin pulled a funny face, whilst robin was smiling. a quick flash struck and soon a photo was printing out the bottom.
jaelin took the piece of paper and waved it around for the picture to develop. once it did, she looked at it in awe.
"that's a keeper." robin said from beside her. she nodded and grabbed a spare pen she had and wrote at the bottom of the photo: R + J, 1977 ❤︎︎
suddenly, the sound of the movie starting was heard. as if right on cue, raymond showed up. he looked at the set up in amazement, "ay! nicely done, jaelin." the two fist bumped.
robin had a jokingly offended look on his face as he threw his hands up, "hey, i helped too!"
raymond had a soda drink in his hands and sat on a chair just in front of the truck. he raised the drink in the air with a grin, "whatever you say, mi sobrino. (my nephew)"
jaelin started laughing and robin scoffed, though he couldn't pretend to be offended much longe. the movie was starting and the two teens sat back, watching as everyone else quietened down.
EVERY TIME A jumpscare happened, jaelin would flinch and bury herself into robin's side whilst he quietly laughed at her antics each time. he didn't know why she was still scared when they have seen it before, but hey, he wasn't going to complain.
by this point, jaelin was leaning into robin's side, holding his hand under the blankets. it wasn't a new thing between them, but it made her flustered every time she would jump and robin would squeeze her hand in reassurance.
when robin got scared rarely, she'd tease him about it up until the next jump scare, to which she would jump at. it was like an ongoing cycle of their constant bickering and teasing.
whenever jaelin was very interested in a scene, he would glance at her for a moment to admire the way her eyes shined in amusement, and her lips were twitched upwards only the slightest bit. he was glad she was here with him. hell, he was glad she was even in his life. call him cheesy or whatever, but it's true.
she was his best friend, and the person who saved him without even knowing. just the two hanging out like this was enough for both of them.
anytime a gory scene came on, robin would jokingly cover jaelin's eyes, and she would do the same. raymond caught them doing this and raised his brows, but nonetheless chuckled at the two teens.
IT WAS ALMOST at the end of the movie, and raymond was enjoying every bit of it. it wasn't until he noticed the bickering and quiet snickers anymore that he turned around.
when he did, his gaze softened. jaelin was cuddled up into robin's side with two or three blankets on top of her whilst robin only had one blanket. he had his arm around her shoulder, leaning his head on top of hers. both sleeping peacefully.
he noticed the necklace around jaelin's neck, shining from the moonlight. he could notice that from a mile away, and this only warmed his heart more.
he remembered telling his nephew to keep it close, for good luck. now, raymond was glad that robin found his human version of good luck.
he smiled lightly at them before looking up towards the sky, still holding that smile as he sighed, "young love, eh, evangeline?"
