"What would you like?" Killian asked, as they stood in the concession stand line at the theater.
For the first time in what felt like months, Emma finally had a day off from work, so her sweet boyfriend took her to see the movie she couldn't stop talking about since she saw the first trailer - The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.
"Surprise me," she said. She knew he knew her well enough that he shouldn't even have to ask that question, but, being the gentleman he was, he wouldn't order anything she didn't want.
"Can I get Peanut Butter M&Ms and a medium Diet Coke?" he asked the cashier.
"Ooo chocolate, my favorite!" Emma exclaimed.
"I know," he said, pulling her in for a small side-hug.
He paid the cashier, picked up her treats, and they walked toward their theater, hand in hand. When they got to the small room the movie was showing in, he held the door open for her and let her choose where they sat - "somewhere in the middle."
As she relaxed into her seat, watching him open her bag of chocolate morsels, she asked, "Have I mentioned how much I love you?"
"Maybe once or twice," he said, handing her the candy.
"Well I do," she said, before popping one of the tiny sweets in her mouth and leaning in to kiss him. He could taste the chocolate and peanut butter on her lips and smiled into her touch.
As the lights dimmed and the trailers began to play, she placed one of the candies in his mouth and gave him a quick peck on the lips. When she pulled back, to nuzzle her head into his shoulder, he wrapped his arm around her shoulder.
