I wasn't all into flicks, but books were my shit. So when my favorite book was being made into a film, I had to compare. Of course i went the opening day and I got the first showing tickets to the biggest and best London cinema, lucky me. Also I hate sitting by random people so I paid extra and bought the VIP seats.
As I was getting ready I picked out my outfit, just an old looking sweater, black skinny jeans and my black Doc Martins. To keep from spoiling everything, I haven't looked up anything about the film since I saw something about it on my Twitter, I didn't want to ruin anything about the film or characters or anything.
When I rolled up the to the cinema I was bombarded with posters about the characters, great. Thomas looked sort of what I imagined he would look like, so it was okay. Newt though, he was different. In the book he was muscular and his hair was passed his shoulders. Right now, looking at him, he is thin and short hair and his face is different but I guess you can't get everything perfect. This kid better be good. I walked into the area and showed my VIP to the guy at the door and was shown my seat. Next to me was a ton of reserved signs. I felt like the Queen.
I had popcorn and drink in hand and waited for the film to begin. Just as everyone entered the cinema there was talking and a lady came out from the bottom to talk to us.
"Thank you all for coming to the London premiere of The Maze Runner. As a wonderful first premiere we have the cast." a loud uproar from the crowd arose and I covered my ears. I was excited too but they were just people. Their security escorted them to the seats next to me. The seat next to me remained empty until the movie Newt sat next to me.
i must have been the only one who bought the VIP or there was only one ticket. I felt kind of out of place, granted I normally go places by myself but I felt strange.
"So what's your name? Seeing as I'll be next to you the entire time."
"I'm Celeste. And you are?" He was obviously surprised by my question. He then smiled really sweetly after he realized i wasn't kidding.
"Thomas. I'm Thomas Brodie-sangster." He held out his hand and I took it but then he planted a small kiss on the top of my hand. i was flustered and he gave a warm smile to me.
As the movie started I took notes of what I was seeing on screen. I felt Thomas glancing at me every now and again. I finally caught him in the act and gave him a confused look.
"What are you doing there then?" He asked me.
"I've read the book a lot and I thought I should write down and compare the two." He nodded his head in understanding.
"Well, I hope you enjoy it because a lot of bloody work went into making it." He whispered to me.
"Well see at the end." I whispered back with a cheeky wink.
At the end (SPOILERS) When Chuck died, I actually started to cry in the cinema. I felt Thomas looking at me and I looked over to him and I wiped my tear stained cheek. He gave me a sympathetic look and threw his arm over my shoulder to comfort me.
When the lights came on, we stood but Thomas' arm was still around me then he moved it to my waist.
"It was good, yeah?" he asked. " Well, I was good?" I gave a small laugh and nodded.
"I'm impressed, you've changed my perspective of my favorite character." He smiled really big and pulled me into a hug.
When we let go, I began packing my things. "Anyways, I have to go." His smile fell almost immediately. I began walking away but he grabbed my hand.
"Promise me, you'll see me again."
Luckily I scribbled down my number, "I don't know, movie star. Maybe."
