The moment you were looking around for an empty seat to sit in, every seat looked taken. You gotta be kidding...

You slowly walked up the stairs and continued to look around until you noticed an empty seat. It was between a couple and a group of friends. That one solo chair...

So much for avoiding people...

You slowly approached the seat not trying to be in anyone's way; not that the movie was starting but you'll be surprised how many people actually sit there and watch the commercials...

As you reached the empty seat you were going to talk to the group of friends to ask if you could sit there however they were too busy having a conversation of their own. You then spoke to the couple not bother to look at them.

"Is this seat taken?" You asked slowly lifting up your head.

"No no please si-," the moment you lifted up your head your eyes met a familiar pair of eyes... Jackson

Shit... You weren't expecting to see Jackson in the same theater as you. Now you regret not looking carefully where you sit...

Deep down inside you wanted to turn around and go find a new seat but then it would seem as if Jackson and you hated each other... The both of you just stopped talking and that was that...

You took a seat and felt the awkward tension between the two of you... Although you felt beyond uncomfortable just sitting next to someone you called your best friend once upon a time, you sucked it up and stared at the screen.

Just pretend he's not there...

It was easier said than done...

"I'm back, the movie hasn't started yet?" You couldn't help but glance over at Jackson and saw the way he smiled at his little girlfriend...

"No not yet," the two pulled each other into a random kiss and she sat down right next to him...

You thought just sitting next to Jackson was going to be bad but now that you are sitting next to him and his girlfriend you realized it's worse than you were expecting...

Maybe coming to the movies was a mistake. You probably should have stayed home and looked for something on tv or even online...

However, you decided to stay in the theater and be completely dateless... On top of that, you met your ex-best friend with his girlfriend and you were now sitting next to him, it's too late to run away from him...

Slowly you glanced over at Jackson and noticed him doing the same. You quickly looked away and felt out of place and awkward...

At least Jackson had his girlfriend by his side.. You stared at the screen right in front of you and was hoping and pray that the movie was going to start soon...

You had two options here... You either suck it up and watch this movie you've been dying to see or... You let Jackson know he had an impact in not talking to you and walk off basically throwing your pride away...

The theater lights slowly began to dim down, and the movie finally began to start.

When the movie began you thought that it would be easier to forget that Jackson's existence was right next to you but the complete opposite happens. Instead, Jackson's new girlfriend was actually making it harder to ignore their presence.

Every time you would think that you would forget they exist you would either hear Jackson's new girlfriend whisper something over to Jackson or would hear her randomly kiss him...
