Oliver's POV
I blushed as Len squeezed my hand. I had been trying not to cling on to him this whole movie because it was humiliating and made me feel awkward, but with Rin gone, I had just kind of grabbed him on instinct. I guess he didn't mind.
I left my hand in his. Embarrassingly, my hand was starting to get sweaty because I was so nervous holding Len's hand. It was probably pretty gross, but Len didn't move his hand away from mine.
Soon, the girls came back. Rin saw me holding Len's hand and gave me a look that said "I told you he was into you!"
I blushed and pulled my hand away, wiping it on my pants leg, turning my attention back to the movie.
My hand was quickly back on Len's as soon as I looked at the screen. I had Len's hand in my left and Rin's in my right and I squeezed them like mad. "Don't open the door, don't open the door...!" I warned the girl on screen.
Of course, the girl opened the door and walked into the creepy room where the killer was hidden.
"Damn it, when you're in a horror movie isn't it common sense to stay away from the murderer's lair if you don't want you head chopped off?!" I yowled at the screen, gripping Len and Rin's hands tighter as the killer crept up on the girl.
I let out a short scream at the same time the girl did as I watched her get decapitated.
"Damn it, I TOLD YOU NOT TO OPEN THE DOOR!" I cried at the screen, clutching the twins for my life. I felt a little bit shaky after witnessing that disturbing piece of gore and I leaned back in my chair, drawing in an uneven breath.
Rin was giggling at my reaction and Len was looking at me a bit concernedly. "Hey, it's just a movie, calm down," he murmured.
I nodded a little. "I know," I whispered. "It's just scary... I don't like all this carnage."
"Really? This is the least scary horror movie I've ever seen, there's almost no gore and none of the scenes made me jump like they were supposed to."
My face flushed. "Then I hope I never see a really scary one."
Len laughed and someone in the row behind us shooshed him.
"Sorry," he muttered to them, smiling at me. I smiled in return and turned back to the movie.
What I saw next was horrifying.
"OH MY GOD, NOT THE DOG! NO!" I cringed as I watched a dog whimper as it was practically torn apart by the murderer's dagger. I buried my face in Len's shirt as the whines died out and the dog was dead.
"Why did they have to kill the puppy in such a graphic manner? Now I'm going to have nightmares!" I complained through the ruffles of Len's sleeve.
He patted my head and smiled slightly. "The dog always dies in horror movies!"
"W-what? Why?" I asked, lifting my head.
"'Cuz you get more attached to the dog than the people so it's sadder, and people always root for the innocent animals. So of course they kill 'em off violently. Remember that they WANT to horrify you," he replied casually like it was the most obvious thing in the world, watching as a girl raced through the woods away from the scene where she had just seen her own dog tortured and brutally killed.
Of course, she tripped over a tree root. "AAAH!" She screamed as the killer hovered over her.
I averted my eyes and shivered as I heard more shrieks and the sound of flesh being torn gruesomely and blood spurting over-dramatically.
"I freaking hate this movie..." I muttered.
I felt like the happiest person alive when the movie ended. "Yay, it's over!" I did a mini-victory dance in the aisle as the movie-goers queued at the door to leave. I quickly joined their ranks, beckoning for the other three to follow.
Rin rolled her eyes and grinned as the three followed me back into the lobby.
"Ah, it feels good to be out of there," I smiled.
REALLY good.
A/N: This chapter was written by me! It was really fun to write!
