"So I was wondering if you wanted to go the movies with me on Friday night, there's a midnight showing of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre?" Johnny looked at his mirror as he practiced asking Ava out for a date.

"Damn it, I'll never get this right." Running his hands through his hair nervously, he took a deep breath and rushed out into the kitchen where Ava was.

"Ava can I talk to you for a second?" his voice came out weak and anxious. Inwardly cursing his tone, he watched as she put the pot on a cool backburner.

Wiping her hands on her apron she looked at Johnny. "What's up?"

His mind drifted back to this morning…………

Soft sunlight peeked between the slats of the blinds, right into Ava's eyes. Stretching her left arm she grazed Johnny's chest.

A muscled arm held her arm in place. Warm brown eyes looked into hers. "Hi," was whispered against her hair.

"Hi." Ava replied. "So what's up with you in my bed, didn't you have a date last night?" Propping herself up on one hand she waited for his answer.

"Yeah I had a business dinner date, but not an actual date, she seemed to want our relationship to be more than business but I told her I was involved with someone else." Johnny threw his words out in the open.

Silence met his words.

"And who would that someone else be?" Ava played stupid just to protect her burgeoning hope that it was her he was talking about.

"You of course." Johnny tipped her head up to meet his eyes.

She could see the heat burning in his eyes and also the sincerity that he hoped they could start something.

"Well you'll have to wait till I'm ready." Pushing a finger into his chest, she tried to push him back, but was met with masculine resistance. A smile tugged at his beautiful lips.

Grabbing a pillow, Ava whacked him over the head with it. Straddling his hips she tried to bury under the pillow, Johnny rolled her until she was under him.

His hips pinned hers down , he smiled down at her. His head descended, his intent obvious. Ava turned her head and his kiss landed on her cheek, which slowly moved to her neck.

Waves of desire threatened to drag her under, but she wouldn't let them. Pushing Johnny off her, she got out of bed.

"I can't do this right now, cause I don't know where we stand." Grabbing her towels she rushed off to the bathroom to prepare for a new day.

Ava stared at Johnny as he was lost in his memories from this morning, "So what is it?"

"I was wondering if you wanted to ---- go see------ to go with me to see a midnight screening of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre tomorrow night?" Johnny stumbled over his words nervously.

Ava's eyes widened in reply and then she turned away. Her gaze shifted to the window and the waves crashing on the beach.

"Look if you don't want to go just say so-"

"I would love to go," was softly replied over his rampant rumblings.

"Really that's great." Johnny looked so happy, he almost fell over.

Friday 11:43 p.m.

A navy tank hugged his muscles to perfection as he navigated back towards his seat where Ava was waiting.

The theater was packed with teens and older couples remembering their glory days.

Johnny sat with Ava in one of the back rows where the lighting was weaker. Lending a somewhat dim romantic atmosphere to their date.

The lights dimmed as the movie began. Trailers for coming attractions began. Ava snuggled against Johnny's side, he put his arm around her and huddled closer to her.

They both shared a popcorn. The movie started.

At the first of the leather faced chainsaw wielding psycho, Ava buried her head in his shoulder and her arm went around his stomach to bring him closer to her.

As the last teen girl ran through the woods in her white tank top shivering from fear and cold. Ava started nuzzling Johnny's neck lightly with light nibbles of her tongue. He shifted uncomfortably in his seat. He started cursing the fact that he'd worn denim jeans, they were so restrictive and didn't allow for much room.

In response to her daring antics, Johnny shifted his hand from her shoulder so that his fingers lightly grazed her breast. He watched her reaction instead of the movie, her eyes widening, she tossed her head back, arching into his touch.

As the psycho on screen almost caught the teen girl running from him. Johnny jumped as Ava's delicate little fingers danced up his thigh.

His touch of her breast intensified and he was rewarded with a soft moan. Ava's fingers moved towards his fly.

A scream from the one of the movie viewers broke the spell the darkness had cast on them.

Johnny's hand lifted from her breast and her fingers moved from his thigh. Johnny linked hand with her as they watched the rest of the movie in silence.

1:40 a.m.

Ava and Johnny stepped out into the cool air of the night and looked at each other. Both remembering their movie dates from so long ago that had been similar to tonight and different.

"That was fun, we should do that again." Ava said. She linked her left hand with Johnny's right and they walked to his car.

"Want to go for a coffee?" Ava asked as they settled into his car.

"Sure." Johnny smiled as he started up the car.
