y/n - your name

y/fg - your favorite genre

I  wake up the next morning to see even more twitter notifications, hoping this doesn't become a trend. I soon shuffle out of bed and begin heading downstairs to see my parents making breakfast, eggs and pancakes. "Love, please call y/n down for breakfast, i don't want it getting cold before we leave," i hear my mom say. I see my stepdad kiss her cheek as he walks by her to the fridge, "of course honey. y/n! breakfa-" he only gets halfway through before he sees me walking down. "Oh great he's already awake, no need to worry about cold eggs," i watch him say to my mom. I finish my way down the stairs and take a seat at my meal before my mom starts.


"So y/n, how was last night with julissa and emily ? i didn't hear you come in until late," she finishes. "It was ok we got our work done surprisingly. Oh, and i met this... uh... old lady at the coffee shop who was really nice and gave me a book recommendation," i wasn't sure if i wanted to tell them about him yet, it's not like we're dating or anything. "Oh, interesting! Well your stepdad and i are going to be working tonight and then we're having a little dinner date," she said smiling, "if you need food or gas money text us and we'll send you some." "Thanks, mom and i think i might be going with a friend to the movies tonight," i say cautiously. "Perfect! You should have fun while we're gone, and you already know the rules about having friends sleep over," she says joyfully. I do know the rules, not that i had the chance to disregard them. One, tell them before someone spends the night, two, make sure to ask if they want breakfast, and lastly, everything that i think should happen in my room happens in my room, not that hard. "I'll be sure to remind myself," i say as she and my stepdad grab their things. "Ok love we'll see you later tonight, love you lots," she calls as she walks out. "Love you too," i call back before the door closes.


I finish up my breakfast and head back upstairs and text alex. "Hey, you still up for a movie ?" i wait for no response but it's early in the morning so i don't expect an immediate reply. I try to sort out an outfit for the possible night. Dark clothes and shoes, or does that make me seem like i don't care ? Bright colors and jeans, or does that make me seem too excited ? Through all of this thinking, i get a reply from alex. "Yeah, of course, is there anything you want to watch?" "I was wondering if we could see a y/fg movie ?" i text back, hoping he likes them too. "Yeah sure ill be happy with anything" he replies. "Great, should i meet you at the movie theater at 8 ?" "That works perfectly for me. Well anytime would since im doing nothing today but it's perfect." "lol ok ill see you there" "can't wait :)" Jesus that was cute...


I stop texting him and finally figure out what im going to wear because of the movie genre, making this whole ordeal easier. I also decide not to tell E and totoro about this whole thing. They'd both be forcing me to tell them everything that happened and im pretty sure i've heard totoro talk about him before so i don't want to open that can of worms. Soon, 7:30 comes around and i start heading to the theater.


I decide to park a little far in case he wants to walk me back... God, what is going through my head right now... I walk up to the theater and suddenly remember that we never decided where we wanted to meet. After a moment of stupid realization, i pull out my phone and ask him where we should meet. "I'm not there yet but can you pick somewhere cause im still driving." Look at him being safe. I notice a few concrete benches around a large circular opening in the center of the courtyard and decide to sit there and wait. "Ok ill be by the concrete chair bench things in the courtyard." A few moments pass and yet another realization passes that im on a maybe date. With a random boy. At the movies. Oh god is this what ive been wanting ? so many things are circling through my head right now. What if he doesn't like me ? What about my marking ? it's probably not going to work anyway. jesus what is wrong with me. he's going to think i look like an idiot. i should just leave right n-
