Sunday, October 2
Okay, sometimes when I'm really round up in something, I forget I did certain things. Like this morning, I totally forgot I gave Blake my Scroll number. It was quite a shock.
Anyways, here's how it went:
[Hey Ruby.]
[Blake?]
[Yeah, it's me.]
[Oh, hey! Waz up?]
[Not much. Going 2 the plaza today?]
[Probably. Y?]
[Wanna go 2 the movies with me?]
Oooooookkkkaaaaayyyyy, that was out of the blue and totally out of character, for Blake. Then she texted:
[With me & Adam, I mean. Yang can come 2. The movie theater shows some horror movies during Sundays 4 October. Thought u b interested.]
Oh…oh! That made more sense.
[Yea, sure! That's sounds fun! Hang on, I'll ask Yang. BRB]
I was freaking out because I knew there was no way Yang would come. Boy, was I wrong. Although she was all clammy and stiff, she went, "Sh-Sure…why not…?"
She probably didn't want me to be alone with a guy. Even though Blake's was going to be with us. Eh, it's fine. I'm not okay with being around Adam. That dude still kinda scares me.
I texted back: [Yang said yes!]
Blake replied: [Cool. C u soon.]
I got dressed in my skeleton shirt and denim skirt with ripped black leggings and my red Converses. I put on my black jacket vest lined faux fur for warmth. Yang picked her favorite yellow pullover and denim jacket with her black skinny jeans. Along with sporting her orange infinity scarf and leather biker boots. That tipped me off. Yang only wore that particular ensemble as comfort.
So after coaxing Yang out of the house with the promise of popcorn, we went to the movies. Adam and Blake were waiting for us in the lobby.
For someone who didn't like standing out at school, Blake goes all out on her clothes.
She had on this really cool two-layered top; the inner layer was a purple cheetah print shirt that covered her right arm, while the outer top was a torn black tee with a sleeve covering the other arm. She wore boot cut jeans with black boots. Her gray beanie sported three Hot Topic pins: one of Blink-182, another with Belle from Disney's Beauty and the Beast, and a Dumbledore's Army one. Adam still wore his sunglasses. He was decked out in the same leather jacket with a red t-shirt ripped at the hems and baggy jeans. His combat boots looked really worn.
Blake said hi to both of us and Adam ruffled my hair again. Yang went into "overprotective big sister mode" the second she saw that. By which I mean she made sure I was five steps ahead of Adam. While waiting in line for popcorn, I asked Blake what movie we're seeing. She replied, "A classic — Halloween."
Uh-oh.
I glanced over at Yang. She was so pale she could've put my complexion to shame.
When we found seats, Yang placed herself between me and Blake. Adam was to my right. I knew Yang didn't want him to see her scared, but still wanted to make sure she was close to me. When the lights dimmed, she nearly jumped out of her seat, even though it was just the previews. I almost laughed out loud but resisted. I swore I saw Adam faintly smirk.
Then the actual movie started playing, Yang locked my hand into an iron grip. I almost couldn't feel the circulation of my hand. Although she didn't hide her head underneath her jacket, Yang was shuddering violently. Finally the movie ended and she let out this huge sigh of relief. Blake treated us to burgers, as a silent apology to Yang. Turns out Yang was holding Blake's hand too.
She stated the movie wasn't that scary and just chewed her burger. Adam just chewed. Blake and I were talked about what was good, what was bad, and what either of us would put as our own twist instead. After that, we said our goodbyes (Adam ruffled my hair again; that's pretty much going to be his way of greeting me and saying bye to me).
Yang was super quiet on the way home. As soon as we got home, she made a beeline for the TV and started watching Fantasia 2000 over and over until she passed out on the couch again. This time Zwei used her head as a pillow.
C'mon Yang! It wasn't THAT scary!
Oh well, she'll probably forget all about it tomorrow when she's starts pranking whoever it is she choose.
