"Look Jack! They're talking about that movie that I keep mentioning about to you!"
Jack stared blankly at the promotion poster Carly was pointing to in the magazine, wondering to himself how in the world can this be an exciting movie. To Jack, any movie not made about him, or dedicated to his great accomplishments, was not worth watching. Carly had been talking about how epic the movie was suppose to be all week, nonstop, twenty-four, seven. Jack couldn't take anymore of her talking about the movie and suggested that they go see the movie…
… together.
After Jack realized what he had said, he flushed a little bit, but luckily, Carly didn't notice. He then tested his luck to see if she had heard him.
Unfortunately, he was unlucky in that part; Carly had heard him loud and clear. Her eyes gleamed and shined. She was so happy, almost to the point of tears. He made a disgusted face, not to her freaky stares but to his stupidity for mentioning something like that.

Kyahh!! Jack asked me out to a date! Carly sprinted up the stairs to her room, but she felt like she was floating. She grabbed clothes out of her closet and swiftly put them on. She then ran over to her nightstand and began to brush her hair but couldn't seem to have a steady hold of the hair brush. Jack Atlas! The Jack Atlas~~!
Carly checked herself in the mirror to see if she looked good she didn't want to look bad next to Jack Atlas. She didn't do anything special to her hair, completely stuck on ideas of how to wear her hair differently, and instead of her regular orange vest, she had put on a light blue sweater since it rather chilly outside.
She patted her hair down a bit, smoothing some areas, spun around a couple times, then when she was content with her attire, she ran down stairs.

Carly had chosen the seats that they were to sit in, perfectly in the middle of the theater so she could get a good view of the movie screen which Jack didn't seem to understand since the screen was so huge, anywhere they sat would've been good enough, but to Carly, there was a difference to where you sit. He decided not to argue with her and just followed her to their seats.
When the movie started, Carly could barely sit still, Jack started to think of this "date" was more of an adult babysitting a small child. Jack looked around and saw no one acting like an idiot like her.
This was his first time in a public area like this and he didn't even act like Carly. Not that he would ever act like the way Carly was acting. Never.
But Jack let that slide because it was rather entertaining seeing her at like a little child. It just made him want to protect her more…
Wait! Hold on… Jack mentally slapped himself. He did not like the girl like that. Just because she helped him escape that hospital without being noticed, and was on his side one hundred percent when everyone seemed to be against him, and let him stay at her place, gave him food to eat, did things around the house to make his stay more comfortable, and cared enough about him to help change his ways and guided him through life did not mean that he liked her.
Okay, maybe, like as in friend, but not in the loving way… right?
Jack decided that this was not helping, so dropped the thought all together.

He couldn't believe it. Jack Atlas could not believe it.
Carly, the Carly who had been so restless about this movie, the person who couldn't stop talking about how good the movie was suppose to be, the person who wanted to get her work done as soon as possible so she could go see the movie (or to brag more about the movie to Jack)…
… was currently sleeping. Jack didn't realize when Carly had fallen asleep. But thirty minutes into the movie, he heard a soft snoring coming next to him and looked over only to see her asleep, resting comfortably on his shoulder. He didn't know how to react. Was he suppose to act mad for going out of his way to ask her out to go see it, putting his pride on the line, and see her sleeping though the movie, or surprised (and somewhat happy) that she had fallen asleep during a movie just like a child and had used his shoulder as her resting pillow.
He decided to let it be. Let her sleep. Let her suffer not knowing how the movie would end. It would be her fault.
But her sleeping on his shoulder was not helping the duelist at all. He couldn't focus on the movie with her sleeping on his shoulder. Jack started to tense up a bit and then soon found himself listening to her soft breathing rather than the movie. Next, he was staring at her sleeping figure for long periods of time, then would whip his head back to look at the screen. Then his eyes would glance over at her, then before he knew it, his entire head was turned back at her, watching over her as she calmly slept.
Damn girl…

"Ahh~! That was such a good movie. Just as I expected"
"What are you talking about?! You slept though the entire thing!!" Jack roared, clearly annoyed that he, himself, couldn't watch the movie peacefully even though he was against the whole idea of watching the movie. He wanted to watch it for Carly, to connect to her commoner world better. To see her interests, to learn more about her.
Carly jumped back, taken aback by Jack's sudden loud outburst. "Bu-but I read the summary online, so I knew what happened and it was good!" she said nervously, trying to defend herself.
This only fueled Jack's anger. "Baka! If you read the entire summary online and knew what was going to happen, then why did you even bother wasting my time to go see the damn movie?! You just wasted money and my time!"
Carly frowned. "You're making this sound like it's my fault!" She cried. "It's not my fault that I always fall asleep during subtitled movies!"
She took a breath before continuing her explanation. "And plus, you were the one who suggested that we go see the movie!"
Jack froze.
She was right.
He had told her to go see the movie together.
It wasn't her idea to go see the damn movie.
It was his.
But he just wanted her to shut up about the movie.
He slapped himself and mumbled "crap".
Carly easily forgave the hot-headed duelist.
"And…" she smiled sweetly.
Jack frowned at her. He could see her big beautiful eyes shining down on him. "sorry…" he whispered.
Carly went ahead and hugged the blond haired duelist. She giggled, inhaling his delicious scent, ignoring the fact that her face was flushed with embarrassment.
Jack froze yet again. Then returned the hug awkwardly by patting her back with his left hand.
And smiled sheepishly.
Maybe, just maybe, going to the movies with her isn't that bad and decided to give going to the movies a chance (but that doesn't mean that he'll always go during his free time).
And only if he received hugs like this from her every time after the movie.

a/n: Sorry if Jack and Carly were out of character. Carly wasn't much of a challenge. Jack, on the other hand, was hard. I was afriad i made him too nice ;; so sorry if they were out of character. I'll try harder next time ~
Oh! and the movie was in english with subtitles and since they speak Japanese... yea... and I thought that maybe Carly wouldn't be able to stay awake during a movie where you have to read something to understand it. And I've done it before where you can read what a certain movie is about online~~
Next Chapter: He carried her in his arms and noted at how light she was and how nice it felt to have her in his arms.
Please Review~~! I'll luv you forever if you do!
