Chapter 44- Valentine's Day date part 2

Cory's p.o.v

Bri began to drive out of the parking lot of the theatre. I was excited to see whee she would bring me. I glanced out the window. The snow was glimmering in the sunlight. I looked over at Bri and smiled. This reminds me of high school. I sighed.

"How was your date with Shelby?" Bri asked breaking the silence.

"It was pretty cool," I said. She smiled.

"That's good, hope mine can be as good,"

"Im sure it will be," I said. Bri giggled in response. Soon Bri pulled into another theatre. Except this time it was a movie theatre.

"I know it's pretty similar to your date with Shelby, sorry about that," Bri said as she parked.

"Oh it's no problem, I actually wanted to see a movie today," I replied getting out of the car.

"Well that's good," she smiled. I nodded and we began to walk to the enterance of the theatre. We slowly entered into the warm building. The smell of popcorn filled the air. We got our tickets checked then we walked to the food lines.

Once we got to the front we got popcorn and drinks. I grabbed the popcorn and drinks while Bri led me to our theatre room. Soon we found it and got to our seats. After she sat down I handed her the drinks and popcorn. Then I sat down. As I waited for the movie to start I began to munch of the popcorn.

"I hope you like this movie," Bri said.

"What are we watching again?" I asked.

"You'll see," she responded smiling. I gave her a worried look then slowly ate some popcorn. She giggled and smiled at me. Soon more people began to flood in.

After the loud noises of people walking and talking it was now fairly quiet. The lights dimmed and the movie previews began. After all the previews the movie started. Bri grabbed my hand in excitement.

The movie started with it raining and panning down to a shot of a farm house. I assumed this was a horror movie. Bri sure seems to love her horror movies. I ate a handful of popcorn as the characters came on screen.

Dawn's p.o.v

I sat in my room thinking about what I should do. The house was scarily quiet because Jon was off on his date with Nick. For some reason the fact that he is with Nick makes me sad. I'm not sure why though.

I should feel happy, right? I should be happy that Jon is happy. So why am I not? Why am I so sad? It's just weird to me. I don't like it. I don't like feeling sad. It doesn't feel good.

I glanced over at my bed side table. I had a box of chocolates on it, unopened. They were for Jon but I didn't have time to give them to him. I accidentally woke up late.

I got up and walked to my desk and opened a drawer. Inside were many random things. But i only wanted one thing. My journal. I grabbed it then sat back down. I flipped to the next empty page in it and grabbed a pencil from my bedside table.

I slowly began to write down my feelings on the page. My true feelings. Ones I didn't think I had. After I finished I looked at it. I was somewhat shocked at what I had written.

'I'm sad. I've become sad because Nick and Jon always hang out. I feel like I'll be forgotten. I don't want to be forgotten, especially by him. He means to much to me. I don't understand my sadness. I should feel happiness for my best friend. But I don't. And it's confusing me. I'm hurting but I don't know why. I want it to stop. I want to be happy like I used to be all the time. I believe the reason I am sad is because Jon isn't hanging out with me. I also feel like I'm jealous of Nick. Because he gets to be around Jon everyday but I barley get to see him now. I miss Jon. I want him back. I don't know what I feel for Jon because it's so confusing. All I know is that he is my best friend and I want him to be around more.' 

I sighed sadly. I signed the bottom of the page then closed it. I set my journal back into the drawer then placed my pencil on my bedside table. I laid down and decided to take a nap. I slowly closed my eyes. Darkness then appeared and I fell asleep.

Cory's p.o.v

Suddenly a jumpscare happened. Bri jumped up and squeezed my arm and leaned into me. I quietly chuckled. Bri glared at me. I smiled at her and wrapped my arm around her. She smiled. 

The movie continued. The next jumps are caused Bri to almost fall onto me. I tried to calm her down. Bri looked over at me when the little kid that was actually a demon in the movie was singing. She scooted closer to me shaking her head. I was also shaking my head. I didn't like that. Then the kid screamed really loud. Bri and I both covered our ears.

The movie continued on. The child ended up getting lost in the woods and found by some people. The kid ended up killing them. The kid ended up getting an exorcism.  Then the movie finished and the lights turned back on. Bri and I got up and walked out.

"That was interesting," I said. She nodded as we got into her car. 

"Hope you liked the movie," she said smiling.

"I did," I said grabbing her hand. She gently squeezed my hand then began to drive. Once we pulled up to my house I smiled. I leaned over and gave her a quick kiss on the lips.

"Bye Bri," I said before getting out of the car and entering my house. I sighed and walked up to my room. I laid on my bed. I was all tired out from my dates. I got comfy and closed my eyes. Then the world went silent and I fell asleep.
