"Hey." I said opening the door, revealing Corey. He was wearing a grey jumper and blue jeans. He looked adorable.

"Hey, uh this is for you." He smiled, handing me a rose.

"Oh, thanks Corey." I blushed.

"So, have her home by 9 and don't try anything smart." My brother said, walking over to us.

Oh gosh

"Yes sir." Corey said.

"Okay, let's go." I laughed, awkwardly.

"Bye Parker." Korine yelled from the living room.

"Bye Kori." I yelled back. I closed the door and walked down the hall and stairs with Corey.

"Your brother, he's nice, right?" Corey asked.

"Yea, he's no harm. Just acts tough but has no brains." I laughed.

"Okay, was that your little sister?"

"Yup, her names Korine but we call her Kori a lot." I said as we walked onto the busy streets.

"Kinda like my name, Kori, Corey." He laughed.

"Yea," I smiled. "So what movie are we gonna see?"

"Well, 1969 just came out but I think Beetlejuice may still be in theaters but that's-"

"Is the 4th nightmare on elm street still in theaters?!" I said, cutting him off.

"I think so, but I haven't seen the first three...."Corey said as we crossed the street.

"What?! You're kidding me, right?"

"Nope...I was never the type to go out and see horror movies."

"Well, I'm gonna make you watch the first three sometime." I said.

"Okay. But should we see 1969? Or Heathers?"

"I've been dying to see Heathers." I smiled. A couple minutes of talking, laughing and cracking bad jokes, we finally reached the theater.

After arguing about who was gonna pay, Corey won and bought the tickets. We walked into the cinema and found our seats.

"I hope this movies as good as it sounds." I said, breaking the silence.

"Me too. I mean it has Christian Slater in it so." He said.

"His movies are pretty great."

"Yea, do you want popcorn?"

"Sure." I said. Corey got up and walked away. I sat there watching the trailers before. After a while Corey walked back in with popcorn and two drinks.

"I hope you like coca-cola." He said, sitting down.

"Sure do. Thanks." I said as he handed me my drink.

~~~~~~~~~~~

The movie ended and got up and left.

"C'mon it wasn't that bad!" I said as we walked down the street.

"It was cheesy." Corey said.

"Whatever." I said, laughing.

"But I had fun tonight."

"Me too." I said. We walked the rest of the way quietly, but it was sweet. We got to my apartment and I turned around to face Corey.

"Thanks for joining me." He said.

"My pleasure." I giggled. He leaned in and kissing my cheek causing me to blush.

"Bye Parker." He smiled.

"Bye Corey." I said, turning around to open the door. I walked in to see the tv on and Kori still coloring on the floor.

"Hey Parker!" Kori said.

"Hey Kori, where's Drew?" I asked.

"He's in his room...I think." She shrugged.

"Oh well." I jumped on the couch and scrolled through the channels. I settled on watching a rerun of 'I love Lucy.'

"Hey, you're here kinda early." Drew said sitting down.

"You said by nine, not exactly at." I said.

"Alright. How was it? What did you guys watch? Did he try anything?" Drew said.

"You're acting more like a school girl than a tough brother." I said.

"Just doing my job."

"Poorly." I laughed
