"Hey, slow down now," Jenna chuckled, "Where are we going?"
"It better be the food court," Steve grumbled.
"Just trust me," Dustin said in a panic.
They then arrived at a door from which Dustin stuck his head out to peer around for the coast to be clear.
"All clear," He signaled and everyone followed behind him.
It's the movies! I really want popcorn now.

As Jenna and Steve were following behind into a theater, Steve grabbed a bag of popcorn from the trash can.
"Smart thinking," Jenna smiled at him.
Alice sighed and dragged the two druggies in behind her.
"It's Back to the Future!" Jenna yelled, causing many people in the theater to shush her. "You 'shhhhhhh'. I'm trying to watch the movie."
"Just come on," Robin rolled her eyes and led them down into the seats.

"You two," Dustin looked at Steve and Jenna, "Sit."
"No, no, no!" Steve looked hurt, "These seats are too close!"
"Yeah," Jenna said as she sat down begrudgingly, "These seats blow."
"Then don't watch the movie," Erica suggested.
"But we wanna watch it!" Jenna told her.
"Then fucking watch it!" Alice snapped, resulting in a man shushing her.
She gave him a fake smile and flipped him off.

"Whatever you do," Dustin looked them in the eyes, "don't... go... anywhere."
"Fine, dad," Steve smirked at him.
Erica, Robin, Alice, and Dustin were done with them and left to go find their own seats at the other side of the theater leaving Jenna and Steve to their discombobulated conversation.

"Can I have some of that popcorn?" Jenna asked Steve.
"Anything for you, m'lady."
"Mmmmmm. Where'd you get it?"
"The trash. You literally watched me grab it."
"What? No I didn't. Don't lie to me, Harrington."
"The trash. I found it in the trash. You told me you liked my thinking as I snatched it."
"Oh... well, just off of the taste of this, we should try that more often. Sorry- I forgot."
"Definitely."

Jenna and Steve started to absent mindedly stare at the movie. They'd both seen it over 20 times due to Jenna forcing Steve to go to the movies with her constantly before shifts and she just loved everything about the film. It was entertaining and nerdy. Just the perfect combo for her. Plus, Steve liked it too and got to spend time with his best friend.
"What's happening?" Steve leaned over and asked Jenna.
"I have no idea."

After a while of sitting and yapping, Steve and Jenna got bored and extremely thirsty.
"Let's leave," Jenna whispered into Steve's ear, "I'm bored."
"Oh my god! I was thinking the exact same thing!"
Jenna looked down the aisle to find Dustin gone, Alice and Robin getting a bit snuggly, and Erica focused on the movie.
"Coast is clear, Wifey. The parents are distracted. Let's hit it."

Jenna and Steve crouched down and giggled throughout their entire exit. As soon as they left the theater, Steve stopped them at the drinking fountain.
"That's amazing," He said, looking down at the stream of water he was just drinking from.
"So, like, I wasn't totally focused in there or anything..." Jenna blabbed like she'd never seen the movie before, "I'm pretty sure... that mom was trying to bang her son."

"Wait, wait, the hot chick was Alex P. Keaton's mom? How come you've never told me this?"
"I'm pretty sure it was his mom. Why the fuck are you talking like we've seen this before?"
"Because we have! I know it!"
"Sure, whatever, dingus."
"Wait, but they're the same age."
"No, but he went back in time."
Steve fully pulled away from the comfort of the water fountain for a moment, "Then why is it called Back to the Future?"
"He has to go back to the future because he's in the past. So, the future is actually the present, which is his time. Ha, maybe I have seen this before..."
