Julie checked her phone for the seventh time in as many minutes.
'No New Messages.'
Glancing up at the darkening sky, she sighed. Pat was always fashionably late, one of her many, charms, but never before had Julie been kept waiting so long.
She was starting to worry if her and Pat were even right for each other at all, Pat has been distant for the past few days, not calling and barely texting.
She sighed once more and turned into the cinema to stock up on popcorn. Having ordered an OBESEMANSIZE bucket of toffee popcorn Julie found herself watching the cashier. His name badge glinted in the overhead lights, reading 'Ken' in generic font.
Ken glanced across at the other cashier, Julie recognised him from school, his name was Dan. From the look Ken was giving him it was fairly obvious they were banging. The eyefucking going on was almost obscene for such a public setting. Julie silently wished them luck in their monosyllabic romance and wandered off to lean against a wall, turning her collar up and planting a brooding look upon her chiselled porcelain face, putting on dark sunglasses to obscure the honey orbs of her eyes.
Suddenly Pat appeared at Julie's side.
'ohmygoshiamsosorryimsolate!' She blurted out before flinging her arms around Julie.
'Okay. Okay Breathe!' She pulled back a stupid grin plastered across her face.
Pat's eyes were glistening with unshed tears. 'Happy tears, how humaney-wumaney' thought Julie sweetly.
But Pat was sad. So very very sad.
'Hey, what's the matter?' said Julie softly leaning in toward Pat.
Pat's lip quivered, her dark purple hair muzzed from the hug/bear attack..''It's-it's just' she stammered, 'Fluffy he- he' She took a gulp of air, 'He died last night.'
Fluffy was Pat's rabbit, although contrary to popular belief he was actually very UNfluffy, a skin condition had caused of his fine long cotton soft hair to fall out, leaving a trail of white-grey flecks wherever he went.
'That's so terrible.' Julie breathed, pulling Pat into a long hug, trying to convey without words how much she cared for her.
'Let's just go and see the film, yeah?'
Pat nodded meekly and trailed after Julie, their hands clasped tightly together.
Suddenly the film was starting.
Julie screamed as a massive chainsaw ripped across the screen throwing tidal waves of blood everywhere. Pat laughed and was rewarded with a sharp elbow in her side.
'Hey!' she exclaimed, 'What was that for?'
'Don't laugh at me, it's not my fault I get scared so easily' she laughed.
An evil grin stole over her face and she dived her hand into the bucket of popcorn.
The bucket was so deep it was as if someone had filled the Marianas Trench with popcorn, only it was less wet and not filled with sea weed.
She pulled a popcorn filled hand back and yelled 'Game on!'

A/N: hey I hope you liked it 10 points if you got the Doctor Who reference, btw the Marianas Trench is the deepest ocean trench in the world, they go there in one of the Torchwood audio books and Jack and Ianto get handsy at 30,000 feet. Anyway, maybe more instalments later, if I feel like it. Peace out!
