Hello everyone! I just want to say- Happy tenth chapter anniversary! I hope to continue for another ten- then perhaps even more! Well, I said that for 35 reviews I'd give you a bonus chapter… You meanies gave me 40! Well, I guess this is it!
Salty popcorn
"Come on Edward! Let me buy the popcorn!" As my boyfriend drags me away from the food stand with one of those spotty teens serving, I feel like a little kid. my hair is ironically tied up into two side buns, and I'm wearing a black jumper, and some jeans. "Do you know how much salt one box of that? Humans are only supposed to have four- you asked for three boxes all with three grams! And anyways, you've already had two bottles of coke" He scorns, and I sip my drink whilst I shuffle in my spot. "I really like salted popcorn…" I furrow my brow, why am I not fighting for my cause? "And how do you know that? I don't think you've ever had a human girlfriend before!" Now it's his turn to look slightly embarrassed. The people walking past look at him with humour in their eyes. I realise what I just sounded like I was saying, and I blush. Edward's thoughts are the opposite; they're apparently people from our English and math class… "H-hey! We don't need to get the popcorn, let's just go and see the movie…" his face reveals him to be calm, but within that head of his… "No, let me tell you what those two thought you meant." An image pops up in his mind, and I think I can almost feel my heat stop beating. "A-are you sure?" I ask, and he nods. I cover my mouth as it curves into a smile, and I feel myself giggle. "Well you were quite lonely when I wasn't here, perhaps you just wanted companionship!" I laugh, rubbing salt into an extremely deep wound, but it was irresistible… "A sex doll? You're really joking about this right now?" His half-hearted humour just makes me want to laugh even more. "I'm pretty sure that this is what you call Karma!" I pat his arm, and lightly tug him back to the popcorn kid. "One box please?" The guy nods, and looks up at me, before winking. Edwards thoughts reveal a bit too much for my pleasure, so I 'accidently' spill the drink onto the offender. "Oh my gosh! I am so sorry, maybe if you weren't checking me out you might have been able to avoid it." He sheepishly nods, and wipes the spot of coke off of his uniform.
"Sorry ma'am."
"You're lucky that it wasn't my boyfriend. Now please take the money for the snack so that we can leave!" I force, causing all of the staff, and customers behind us to shudder, or laugh at the burn.
"That was…" Edward chuckles, "Incredible!" I kiss him in front of the boy, and I take my food. As we walk towards the theatre, I can feel my face heat up. "I- I think that I should go and apologise!" I admit, and Edward laughs. "It's alright, no man should look at a very obviously taken woman like that?" I giggle, and wrap my petite torso around his chest.
"You're so old fashioned…" I mumble.
"Well, I am-"
"One hundred and nine, and looking very good for your age!" We both chuckle, and I pop a kernel of corn into his mouth, causing his face to scrunch up. "This is disgusting April." I force five into my throat, and smile. "Oh really? Well then you'll have to keep eating it until you like it! "I throw one in his direction, and he catches it with ease. "You underestimate me." He states smugly, and I throw another two at his face, he catches both of them. "Try harder." He plays, and I have an idea.
"Fine! I give up!" I sigh, and latch a hold of his arm. "Why couldn't you just be a normal kid without the creepy reflexes?" He laughs, and I pull his arm tighter, before twirling in front of him. "but you're a great kisser though…" He leans down slightly, and I kiss him, pushing a piece of popcorn into his mouth, he pulls away, and I burst out into tears of laughter. "You fell for it! Ha! I win," He puts the kernel into the trash, and picks me up from behind, before spinning me. "You're so idiotic sometimes- but always genius." I giggle, my heart bouncing at a record speed. Could every day not be like this? "And You're so silly sometimes, but always cuddly!" He captures me in a hug, tight, but not painful, He seems to be in more control when he's not being more cautious than happy, instead of the other way around, trying not to break me like I'm a porcelain doll. "The movie's going to start soon, come on." He whispers, smiling broadly.
"Yes my love." I bounce, before realising what I just unconsciously said. He takes my hand, and he smiles at me more radiantly than he ever has before. "Perfect."
