Lark and Lloyd both cleaned the shop together, neither really wanted to leave each other, which was going to have to happen... closer to night. They had some hours to kill. They could watch a movie together.
Not Bambi. Lark could pick the movie this time.
"What do you wanna do?" Lloyd asked once they were finished.
"Mmmm, I dunno. Wanna watch a movie?"
"Uh. Sure?" Lloyd answered, raising and eyebrow.
"Great! So you made me suffer..." Lark began with a grin.
"Oh no." Lloyd sighed.
"So, we're watching Coco." She decided.
"I guess I deserve that." Lloyd let out a small nervous chuckle. "Do I have permission to cry on you?"
"Dude, that's why I'm forcing you to watch it. So I can do that."
Lloyd laughed and said. "Okay Lark. Can we cry on each other?"
"Sounds good to me." She smiled, kissing him on the cheek gently.
The two closed up shop and headed to Lark's appartment that was upstairs once they got all Lark's things, Lloyd insisting he carried for her.
Lark forced Lloyd onto the couch while she got everything ready, the popcorn, pouring all the skittles she owns into a bowl for them and of course, getting the movie.
Lark and Lloyd both got comfy on the couch once she joined, already his face showed he wasn't prepared, not that she could blame him.
"I'm not ready for this. So let's jump in." Lark decided.
"Sounds horrible to me." Lloyd agreed.
Lark popped the movie in and leaned against Lloyd, enjoying the company.
Lark was enjoying the skittles before she felt a disturbance in the force.
A wild orange skittle appeared. Lark didnt know what to do, she could run away, but she didnt wanna leave the comfort of Lloyd. She would need plenty of full restores, I mean non-orange skittles to heal.
Lark decided to just end it quickly.
She looked over to Lloyd and pressed the skittle against his lips.
He took the skittle and once he finished, he asked. "The heck?"
Lark just giggled and said. "I chose you."
She leaned back against him and continued to watch the movie. She could feel Lloyd's arm wrapping around her. She felt so relaxed and comfy.
The movie was fricking awesome too. The colours, the words, everything.
Lark felt so bad for Hector. She just wanted to give him a small hug.
By the end of the movie, she was crying, and so was Lloyd. Lark was huddled into his chest, soaking his shirt with her tears.
Lloyd wasnt crying on her, and focused on just comforting her through the tears.
Lark pulled back from Lloyd, wiping her tears before curling back into his body.
She wanted to comfort him. She really did, but she just felt shattered. That damn movie pulled her heartstrings so many times.
She fell asleep like that, they always just seem to sleep on couches together, but Lloyd soon followed her lead and slept too. Sleep be needed. They're probably gonna have a lot of texts though from the ninja asking about where he is.
Lloyd was awake first. He could feel Lark resting against him and he shifted so they can both hopefully be more comfortable, but he still didn't really wanna move, he wanted Lark to be comfortable and sleep well, no matter how uncomfortable he'd have to be.
Lloyd let out a small breath, which Lark responded too. "Mmmm?" She whined out, shifting around before finally opening her eyes. "What's happening?" She groaned, her eyes adjusting to the light.
"Nothing." Lloyd smiled. "Just trying to keep you asleep, which didn't work."
Lark smiled back him goofily and said. "Yeah, but waking up to you isnt much of a bad loss."
"I could say the same about you." He smiled, running his hand through her hair.
"I thought of it first." Lark argued lightly, the smile still on her face.
"I thought of it second." Lloyd grinned. "Second beats first." He told her, booping her nose gently with his finger.
"First has priority." Lark giggled, moving her arm from under his and raising her hand slightly up to her nose.
"Mmmm. Fine. I'll fall under." He chuckled."
"That's music to my ears."
"Of course it is." Lloyd playfully rolled his eyes.
Lark laughed again and snuggled closer and closed her eyes, mumbling. "I'm going to sleep now, leave me alone."
"Sounds like an amazing idea. I think I'm gonna follow your lead and sleep." Lloyd yawned.
"Your phone is freaking the hell out." Is what Lark awoke to, well that and her pillow was constantly moving. Stupid pillow. The voice that spoke was of another human.
I mean... amazing pillow. Wouldn't recommend her protective boyfriend as one though.
"I'm aware." She heard Lloyd speak quietly, obviously taking special care to not wake her, but failed.
"You gonna tell them you're alive?" Misty was the other human. Lark could just mentally facepalm at the fact she didn't recognize her best friend's voice.
"That would probably be a smart idea." Lloyd shrugged.
"It would. They're probably convinced every Friday you go out to get ninjanapped." Misty joked.
"Pfffffft. No they don't." Lloyd laughed. "Why would they think that?"
Lark lazily threw her hand from under the covers, barely noticing that there were any there and grabbed his phone.
No arguement was made. They just watched her do it. She unlocked it, since for some strange reason he didn't have a password and said outloud. "Lloyd, all of the texts are basically yelling at you." She yawned tiredly.
"Ugggggh. Fine. I'll answer each of them by announcing I'm alive." Lloyd grumbled. "So much effort. They have such low faith in me."
"Can you really blame them?" Misty asked him.
Lloyd frowned for a second before opening his jaws and closing them again.
"Thought so." Misty sighed. "Anyway, I'll be off catching cereal on fire, see ya losers later." With that, Misty made her way into the kitchen, to make herself a bowl and cereal.
"I hope she doesn't catch it on fire. I'm too tired to deal with fires." Lark complained.
"That's not good." Lloyd responded, raising an eyebrow.
"Dude, I'll care more when the fire is actually happening."
"I don't like how casually you said that."
