WHO ELSE IS EXCITED FOR FRIDAY?

"Come on Eli we have to go!" Adam shouted at me as I hurried to throw clothes on. We were getting ready to leave my house so catch the newest horror flick.

"I'm coming!" I called down the stairs. I had just got out the shower when Adam called and said he was outside to pick me up. I hurried into skinny jeans and a band shirt then rushed out of my room down the hall. I nearly ran into Adam on the way to the front door, but managed to slow down enough so he could open the door.

Adam had gotten his drivers license a few weeks ago and finally had the chance to show off his new car. We pulled into the movie lot and speed walked to the movie theater doors. The show started at 5:30 and it was currently 5:45. We paid for our late tickets with odd looks from the ticket woman, but didn't stop to chat.

We settled into our seats quickly, choosing seats as the very back of the theater. Thankfully, the movie was just starting. I leaned over and whispered, "Thank goodness for long previews."

Adam nodded in response and we sat back. The movie started bloody and gory, just the way I liked it. I looked at Adam a bit worried for him. I knew he was transgendered, so I was a little concerned at the violence in the movie. His girlier qualities came out at the absolute worst times.

I looked over and saw him sitting completely relaxed, eyes intent on the movie screen in curiosity and interest. I was content then and allowed myself to relax too. Adam would be fine.

Towards the climax part of the movie Adam had leaned over to whisper something about the leading lady being hot. I nodded, but didn't really pay attention to what he was saying. The movie was getting good.

Just as a particularly huge explosion blew up the building with the main characters in it, Adam grabbed at my arm, which had been resting on the armrest between Adam and I's seats. I glanced over and saw him squinting his eyes and flinching. I leaned closer and whispered, "Adam everything's fine. Calm down, its just a movie." I tried to pull my arm away, but he held tighter and kept his eyes shut.

"Adam," I whispered again, putting my hand on top of his on my arm, "You're being Gracie again. Look we can leave if this is too intense for you." I tried to speak soft and be kind, knowing he needed the reminder.

"Oh," he shot back in his seat almost immediately, "Sorry dude, its cool." He said, seemingly relaxed. I shrugged my shoulders, and turned back to the movie.

"Eli," Adam had leaned in again.

"Yeah?" I leaned in too

"Thanks. I know it's just a movie but Gracie just took over a minute. I didn't mean to grab your arm."

"No problems." I said, and sat up again, getting back to the film. Adam turned to the screen as well, but stayed leaned on the armrest closer to me. I thought it was odd, but didn't think anything of it.

The movie ended without any more interruptions. We left the movie on a high note, laughing about some of the scenes. Adam walked backwards in front of me as we made our way out the front door. I laughed and guided him around other people coming and going and we made our way outside.

Adam carefully stepped down the ledge that separated the sidewalk from the street, and I tried to do the same, as it was a steep step, but missed and tripped face first into Adam.

I fell and landed full on top of him and our lips crashed on top of one another. Before I could get up a bright flash went of and we heard snickers. We scrambled to our feet to see who took the picture. It was Owen and Fitz.

"Oh isn't that cute? A first kiss! And after such a nice date too. I saw the romantic cuddling you two did during the movie." Owen taunted. Adam's face turned bright red, but my hands clenched into fists. Fitz was holding a digital camera, which was obviously where the flash had come from.

"Fuck off you guys." I said fiercely, reaching for the camera. Fitz stepped back out of my reach.

"Oh no," he said, "this picture is going all over the school and all over the internet."

I tried to get the camera back again, but they laughed at my attempt then took off running down the street. I knew there was no point in running after them. Adam dropped me off at my house without saying anything and when we got to school on Monday every single locker had a picture of me and Adam with our lips and bodies crushed together.

Everyone gave me amused looks and laughed when they saw me. I didn't see Adam at all that day, but I suppose that was a good thing. I saw the picture so much I started to like it a little too much, and by the end of the day I had an uncomfortable problem in my pants I needed to get home and deal with.

I got home and went into my room, started up with "fixing my problem" when Adam called. I answered the phone, slowing my strokes, but not stopped. I couldn't.

"Hey Eli about today. Sorry I wasn't at school to help deal with the problem. I was just too embarassed." I mumbled a breathless reply, my hand speeding up as I listened to Adams voice. "Owens a real jerk. Thanks for helping during the movie again. Sorry I got so close."

I gasped when he brought that up, remembering just how close he had been. He was close enough to kiss when he jumped at me during the movie.

"Are you okay?" Adam asked, "Eli, what are you doing?" He asked. I tried to stop myself, but it was too late. I shouted a moan as a came all over my floor into my hand with Adam right on the phone.

"Eli...?" He asked in a scared voice.

"Its...okay..." I panted, but before I could catch my breath to explain, Adam had already hung up the phone.
