Well with a newly discovered hickey on my neck, three days before Valentines day, when I was supposed to see Renee, I was in a little bit of panic. Neither Ben or Tandy had an idea how I had gotten the hickey, until I realized it must have been Cindy, while we were dancing she must have felt the need to mark my neck.
Anyway, I hoped that it would fade away before she would notice, or fade enough that she wouldn't notice. Renee and I met up at the mall, with the plan being to watch a movie. We had no idea what to watch, there were no "good" movies on, so we settled on Lego Batman. In my mind I wasn't about to watch the movie, I did like the Lego Movie, it was a brilliant movie, but Batman? I don't particularly like the idea of changing Batman, even if they aren't changing him exactly, the presentation changes. So I wasn't to psyched about watching it, however, she really liked Batman, so I was willing to do it for her. We met up outside the cinema, she paid for the tickets and I paid for the snacks, it was panning out to be great, we headed into the cinema, and she hadn't seemed to notice the remains of the hickey, so heading into a dark room was a huge relief. In the cinema, well if you've been reading from the beginning you probably have an idea on what exactly happened. Anyway, we headed out, and out of total coincidence we bumped into some of our classmates, I tried to pretend I hadn't seen them, but they made it very difficult, and eventually I had to say hey. We walked down to the bookstore, looked at some books, and then left. I walked her halfway to the entrance because her parents didn't know she was dating me.
Not much happened during the date, I thought we were getting to the point that it was going to be a textbook relationship, meet up, make out, go home. I didn't think too much about it, instead I looked for my classmates, and we all hung out. Awkwardly enough, Terra was there, and she saw me with Renee. I didn't know what to say to her honestly. But I tried not to make it awkward. We chilled, it was cool.
