Rachel's POV:
"You okay Logan?" Ethan turned to look at him.

Logan slowly nodded, never taking his eyes off of Kaiden. What's happening here?

"Next in line," the male cashier at the register faintly spoke.

We walked up to him. Logan, Ethan and I ordered and paid. I grabbed the three empty cups of soda as I walked to the soda machines. Ethan and Logan went to pour what seemed like four cups of butter on the three bags of popcorn. I filled up the cups with Pepsi for Ethan and I, and Sprite for Logan. We met up near the theaters that read 1-10.

We entered theater 8 and attempted to find our parents in the dark room. We searched the entire rows until we spotted our parents in the middle rows.

We walked up the stairs and sat down next to our parents. Being the slobs that we are, half of our sodas and popcorn were all over the floor. We are our treats as we watched the movie for the next hour and a half.

When the movie finally ended, we waited until the lights of the room turned on, signaling the ending of the movie. We usually always wait in case there's an after-credits scene.

We exited the movie room and walked into the hallways with all the other entrances to the rooms. We walked around to the arcade area of the movie theater. My parents were on the phone with a business acquaintance as we approached the arcade area.

Logan and I ran to the racing arcade games. We sat down on the plastic chairs and tossed in the four coins necessary. Ethan, being the supportive brother he was, came over to my side to cheer me on.

"I have fans," I stated to Logan as I gave him a cocky smirk.

"He's just a kid he doesn't know any better," Logan rolled his eyes as he moved the fake steering wheel to choose a location.

"I'm right here," Ethan mimicked Logan's eye roll.

"He's just petty," Ethan and I smirked at each other.

We began our game. After I beat Logan at three rematches, we decided that it was getting late.

"I'll be right back," I mentioned as Logan and Ethan shot their plastic guns at the screen full of zombies.

They both nodded and shoo'ed me away. I walked to the bathroom, passing my parents who were still on the phone.

As I made a turn to enter the pathway leading the bathrooms, I bumped into someone's chest.

"I'm so sorry," the words came out rapidly.

"It's okay Rachel," a masculine voice spoke.

I looked up to see the same blueish gray eyes that I love. I gave Kaiden a soft smile before walking past him and Stephanie. I walked rather quickly to the bathroom. I didn't want that embarrassing moment to continue any longer.

I did my business in the stall and went to wash my hands. I walked out of the bathroom and to my family. We left the theater and drove home. As we entered the house, my parents went over to the couch and turned on the TV, as Ethan drowsily walked upstairs to his bedroom.

Logan and I went over to the kitchen and grabbed some mangoes. We sliced the pieces up and put them in a bowl. We joined our parents on the couch. Around 11 PM my parents went to bed, leaving me and Logan watching a movie. I watched the people on the screen move as I slowly drifted off to sleep.

I woke up to a soar throat and a headache. I sat up from the couch. There was a blanket slightly covering me.

"Go back to bed honey," I heard my mother's voice come from the kitchen.
