Chapter 7
Will walks down the stairs with Rose and Delilah by his side. He is wearing a dark green shirt and black sweatpants. He smiles at me as he ascends the stairs.
I smirk back even though inside I am in a total panic. He stands in front of me. The girls back off to watch.
"You look handsome," He breaths. I smile.
"Have you seen yourself?! You look breathtaking," I state. His face flushes red. He takes my hand and walks us out of the house. I wave to the others.
We walk to his car. It's a sleek black truck. I climb into the passenger's side. He gets in the driver's seat and turns on the ignition.
He pulls out of the driveway and drives off. I turn on the radio.
'There's a million different reasons
We shouldn't be together
But when I put it all together
It all comes back to you, you, you
I love it when the only light
Is me you and the moon
And baby when I close my eyes
I'm thinking about
If we never met
I'd be drunk, waking up in someone else's bed
I'd be lost in a crowded room of fake friends
I wouldn't even know what love is
If we never met'
Will stops at a movie theater and we get out. I make sure my tail and wings are hidden. We walk in the theater hand in hand.
We walk up to the ticket booth and buy a ticket from a not so happy looking lady. She practically throws the tickets at us. Will walks closer to the lady and I have to pull him back.
We walk inside and Will keeps apologizing. I look over at him and turn him to face me.
"Will, love. It's fine. I'm not mad. We just don't need anymore attention," I say quietly. He nods.
"Do you want to get popcorn?" He asks. I shake my head no.
" Unless you want to, " I say. He shakes his head no.
"I don't really like popcorn," he says.
"Me neither, " I reply. We walk to our movie. Will pulls me up the stairs and to the top row.
The lights dim and I realise that we are the only ones in the theater. The movie starts playing.
I watch Will more than the movie and how he laughs at all the funny moments. His head goes back and the laugh comes from his chest.
I smile seeing him and turn to the movie. A little purple alien is in a flying car with a girl. A cat sits on top of the alien's head.
I feel Will's hand intertwine with mine. My breath catches in my throat and I peak over at him. He is watching me and smiling. I turn back to the movie quickly, glad that the darkness hides my blush.
The movie ends as the girl finds her mother and the purple alien gives back an egg to another alien.
"That was a good movie!" Will says. I smile and nod.
We walk out of the theater and to the truck. Will drives off, his hand still holding mine. We stop at a red light and he leans over to kiss me. I peck him on the lips and then turn away.
He laughs and the light turns green. He pulls up to 'KFC.' We get out and order chicken. We sit at one of the tables waiting for the order to be ready.
"Order 54!" A man yells from the back. Will gets the food and brings it to the table.
"We can eat at the park if you want, " he suggests. I nod and we walk back to the car with our bagged food.
We get to the park and sit down on a bench. I sit next to Will as we eat our chicken. Human children play on the playground, laughing and screaming. Will wraps his arm around me.
I lean against his side as I finish eating. I grab our trash and throw it away. I grab his hand and we walk around the park.
Will pulls me over to the monkey bars and climbs on top of them. He motions for me to get up and so I scale up them. The sun goes down and the sky erupts in reds and purples. I lean my head against Will's shoulder.
I hum quietly as we watch the sun go down. The wind suddenly picks up and whips my hair around. Will chuckles and moves it out of my face. He keeps his hand on my cheek and quickly leans in and pecks me on the lips.
He smiles at me mischievously and jumps off the monkey bars. He runs through the trees and I run after him.
"Will! You're such a fucking tease!" I scream after him. I hear him chuckle. I catch up to him and jump onto his back.
" Gotcha! " I exclaim. He laughs. His eyes twinkle and he smiles. He walks back to the car, holding me up on his back. The moonlight shines through the leaves and makes Will glow.
'Wow. He's beautiful,' I think.
"Why thank you," he replies. I fall of his back. I land in a pile of old leaves.
" How'd you know I thought that?!" I ask. He chuckles, picking me up bridal style.
"Love, you said it out loud," he replies. I groan and bury my face into his chest. He walks out of the trees and back onto the path. The park had been deserted, probably because it is almost eleven o'clock.
We make it to the car and I hop out of Will's arms and into the car. Will gets in and turns on the heater. We drive back to the house, occasionally making small talk. We make it there and Will parks the car on the corner.
We walk back inside the house and a bunch of little demons run up to us. Caramel flies over the crowd and lands in front of us.
"So how was your date?" She asks. Everyone went quiet, waiting for the answer. I decide to make it funny.
"Well you see, Will here fell into a pile of mud but luckily I packed him extra clothes. Then at the movie he spilled the popcorn all ov-" Will slams a hand on my mouth.
"That is not what happened at all. It was fun. He had a lot of fun but now he is tired and wants to go to bed. Right Ash?" He asks menacingly. I nod stifling a laugh. He takes his hand off my mouth.
"Goodnight all," I say. A chorus of 'goodnights' come back at us as we walk up the stairs. I open the door to our room and walk inside.
I grab my pajamas and change in the bathroom. I get out and Will comes out of the closet from changing.
"Coming out of the closet I see?" I say. He glares at me and flops onto the bed. I lazy next to him.
"C'mon. You cant be mad at me forever, " I say. He mumbles something that sounds similar to 'you wanna bet on that'. I chuckle and grab a pillow. I hit him softy on the back of the head.
He sits up quickly and grabs a pillow.
"Oh it's on!" He yells. He throws the pillow at me and then grabs another. I chuck mine at him. He grabs me and puts me over his shoulder.
"You're cheating!" I complain. He chuckles and sets me down. I crawl under the covers and hide. He lays on the bed beside me. I grab the pillow that he's still holding and put it under my head.
"Night Will," I yawn. He smiles at me and grabs a pillow.
"Night Ash, " he replies.
