Pluem's POV

"... ehrm... okay, thanks for inviting me," I replied to Mean.

"It's going to be a horror movie," Chimmon spoke up, "are you into horror movies?"

Actually I wasn't, but because I really wanted to watch a movie with Chimmon I lied and said that I liked watching horror movies.

Mean looked at Chimmon in surprise.

"Did I say that we were gonna watch a horror movie?" Mean asked him.

Chimmon had the grace to blush. It was obvious that he was just trying to discourage me from joining them.

"Oh, I ... I ..." Chimmon was trying to search for words.

"That's fine," Mean did not wait for him to finish his sentence, "if it's a horror movie that you guys want to watch, I'm not against it."

"It's settled then!" I exclaimed with a bright smile and started digging into my bowl of pasta.

Suddenly my lunch tasted very good whereas Chimmon didn't look happy at all.

After lunch we all went two decks higher to the cinema area where we all bought and paid for our own movie tickets.

I noticed Chimmon hesitating at the entrance of the movie house.

"What's wrong?" I asked, touching his elbow.

"I need time to adjust to the darkness," he said.

"Here, let me guide you," I said, taking his hand. It felt so soft that I wanted to squeeze it.

I slowly walked to the row where our ticket seats were assigned.

Without letting go of his hand, I walked ahead into the row of seats and pointed to him the seat corresponding to his ticket.

"Thank you," he said, sinking into the soft velvet surface of the seat.

I sat beside him while Mean sat on the other side of him.

When the movie started with the ear piercing scream of the victim, I felt Chimmon jerk in his seat and I noticed that he had grabbed Mean's arm instead of mine.

I leaned towards him and whispered, "Don't be scared, I'm right here" and with those words I took hold of his hand that was closest to me.

Thankfully he did not try to pull his hand away, but I noticed that he was still holding on to Mean's arms.

If I had been a genie, I would have whisked Mean away with some magic powers.

Several times during the movie, there were more startling scenes that made even myself move to the edge of my seat.
