We Play Pretend

Chapter 4: The Movie

As Kaitlyn took a shower, I searched for a movie to watch. Before I knew it, Kaitlyn walked out of the bathroom. I stopped scrolling and looked at her.

God, she looks amazing in my clothes. This is going to be hard. This girl is so far perfect in so many ways. She is not like other girls. She is not like other Julie and the Phantom fans. I could not help but watch her carefully fold her dirty clothes and place them on the dresser.

After she finished folding her clothes she walked over and sat at the end of the bed. "Have you figured out what to watch?" She asked me. "Would you want to watch Footloose?" I asked her. "Which one? Well, it doesn't matter I like both of them." She said to me. I clicked on the first Footloose I found.

The movie began and Kaitlyn was still sitting at the end of the bed. "Kaitlyn, why don't you sit up here and get more comfortable." I suggested. She got up and came to sit next to me near the headboard. As the movie began, I realized the lights were still on. I got up to go turn them off so we could enjoy the movie better.

As I did that, I noticed that Kaitlyn started to climb under the blanket as if she was getting cold. After the lights were off, I made my way back to the bed using the tv light to guide me. I climbed under the covers with Kaitlyn.

    Twenty minutes into the movie, I notice Kaitlyn starting to fall asleep. I moved closer to her to prevent her from falling over since she was sitting up against the headboard.

Before I knew it, Kaitlyn's head gently laid on my shoulder. I looked over to her and her eyes were closed. She looked so peaceful sleeping. Not to long after that I felt myself fighting my sleep and I caved.

      The following morning, I woke up and I felt weight on my chest along with something wrapped around me. I slowly opened my eyes to see what it was. It was no other than Kaitlyn. God, she looks even more perfect like this. I could lay like this forever.

Last night was so perfect, I thought it was a dream. But luckily for me it wasn't a dream. I stay perfectly still so I would not wake her up. As I laid there, I began to daydream. What it would be like if I ended up with her. I bet it is a constant happiness. But also, how could I be falling so hard for a girl I met only twelve hours prior. I guess we just clicked. But I would just end up hurting her by being away so much. I can not do that to her.

  My wondering was interrupted by a loud knock on the door. I jumped slightly and I quickly looked over at Kaitlyn. She is still peacefully sleeping.

The knock came again, then I heard Owen yelling "Charlie get up. We need to be heading down to the festival soon." I very slowly and gently pulled myself away from Kaitlyn.

Once I got to the door I open it and immediately and quietly tell Owen, "quiet man. I have someone asleep in here and I do not want them to wake up." Owen's eyes got big.

  "Dude, who did you sleep with?" Owen said as he pushed his way past me. "Owen. What are you doing?" I quietly yelled at him. He gave me the be quiet finger.

Owen walk around the bed and look at who it was. Owen then began mouthing "Oh my god. It's her." I gave him a very angry look and quietly tell him to come here. I grabbed his arm and pulled him in the hall.

  "Dude. You slept with that cute girl from last night." Owen said with excitement. "Owen, it is not what you think. She got locked out of her room and there was no where for her to go. I offered for her to watch a movie until she can get into her room. But we both fell asleep shortly after the movie started. We did not do anything else." I told him while trying to stay calm. "You two are soulmates." He told me.
"What are you all talking about?" Jeremy asked as he walked up. "Charlie slept with that cute girl from the bar." Owen told him. "No, we fell asleep in the same bed that's it. Nothing else." I told them. They both gave me that you are lying face.

I give up and go back into my room. Kaitlyn is still asleep in the bed. I'm shocked she is after all that. Well since I'm up now I might as well take a shower and get ready.
