Chapter 11:
Chloe's POV:🏆"Josh are you ready?", I ask, as I knock on the closed bedroom door. Josh opens door with a bouquet of roses in his hands. "I was gonna come get you", he tells me. "Are those for me?", I ask. "Uh yeah", he replies as if it were obvious. He hands me the flowers and I smile. I thank him. Josh follows me down the stairs. "Where are you two going?", my dad asks as we approach the front door. "I'm taking your daughter out to a movie", Josh announces proudly. "You're going out with this stud, Chloe? Remember Chlo, let them chase you", my dad jokes. "Dad! We're just going out as friends, we'll be back at around 11", I say, embarrassed. "Have fun, and Josh, good call on the roses, nice romantic gesture", Dad teases. "I know what I'm doing", he replies as we finally leave the house of embarrassment.

We needed a ride, way to jump to conclusions", he jokes. "Fine, but you should know it's pretty ridiculous to show up at a movie theater, that is only 5 miles away, in a limousine", I added.

After Josh buys us tickets, we quietly walk to the theater. He looks a little nervous, he keeps looking over his shoulder as if he were looking for something. "So why did you wanna see this movie? Didn't you say you saw it already?", I ask to break the silence. "Well you know, it's, um, a pretty good movie", he stutters. When we walk to the theater, Josh sort of scans the room. "Let's sit in the middle", I decide. "Let's sit in the back, we can see everything from back there, every little thing", Josh points out. I reluctantly follow him to the last row of the theater. The movie hasn't started yet and Josh keeps checking his watch. After about five minutes the movie is about to start and he looks pretty upset, almost angry. "Are you okay?", I ask. "I'm fine.", he mutters. He suddenly sits up straight and his eyes are wide open, his face lights up. I follow his eyes to see where he's staring. "That son of a..."🏆 -end of chapter 11-
