Natalia sat alone in the dark theatre her eyes trained on the screen as she watched the couple onscreen kiss. Sometimes she wished that she had someone to go home to after a long day at work, someone she could talk to and spend time with. But after years of being on her own she was used to being by herself. After her argument with Brot earlier she had decided to unwind by going to see a movie, since it was the only time when she didn't have to think about anything but what she was watching on the screen.
She had just gotten into the movie when she felt something hit her in the head, looking down she noticed it was a piece of popcorn. Then a second later more popcorn hit her in the back of the head, "What is your problem?" she yelled turning around to give the person a piece of her mind.
She was shocked however to see that the person was Brot. "Oh it's you, what are you doing here?" she asked as she saw him smirk at her and then hop over the seat to sit next to her.
"The question is, what are you doing here. Thought you didn't like movies?" he asked munching on a piece of popcorn.
"I was joking, I enjoy seeing a movie every now and then."
"But this is a romantic comedy, I thought you'd be more of a blood and guts type of girl."
"I happen to like romantic comedies too."
"See that wasn't so hard to admit," he replied with a smile.
"What do you think about popcorn? I'm a butter and salt guy myself." Natalia turned and laughed at him he was always so frustrating but he seemed to always know how to push her buttons.
"See I got you to smile, you know you should try it more often. Your so much more beautiful when you smile." He said as he turned back to the movie. 'Did he just call me beautiful?' Natalia thought to herself as she tried to concentrate on the movie as well. But no matter how hard she tried she couldn't seem to shake the thought from her head. No one had ever told her that she was beautiful before, well except for her mother and father.
"Hey you want some popcorn?" he said holding out the container so she could grab some which pulled her out her reverie. "Uh..Yeah thanks."
Natalia took a handful and then turned back to the movie as Brot glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, 'she really was beautiful' he thought to himself. The thing he liked about Natalia was that she didn't treat him any different than she would have treated anyone else, she always told you what she was thinking no matter what, and he loved the way she always became so frustrated when he tried to go against something she thought was right.
Natalia reached over to grab another handful of popcorn just as he was reaching for some too, their hands met and she immediately pulled back. "S-sorry go ahead." Brot smiled he liked when she became flustered because it didn't happen very often but when it did she showed a little of her vulnerability. "No it's alright you first," he replied holding it out for her again.
Brot watched as she took some and turned back to watch the movie, he wanted to see if he could get to her some more so he reached out and touched her hand. Natalia was shocked as she looked down to see that he did in deed grab her hand but she had to admit that she liked it. So to his surprise she left her hand there and acted like nothing had happened. But inside she knew that something indeed had.
