The seven of them filed into the theatre that 'The X-Files: Fight the Future' was showing in, trying to look inconspicuous while glancing around for Sue and Jack. Nikki spotted them at a row near the front, presumably so that Sue could read the lips on the screen easier, and nudged Erin, who nudged Helen and so on and so forth. Once all of them had been nudged and informed of where Sue and Jack sat, they took their seats at an empty row a couple of rows behind the pair, holding their breaths when Nikki burst her bag of popcorn and the sound resonated in the almost silent theatre. However, neither Sue nor Jack turned round. Well, Sue wouldn't have heard it but Jack chose to ignore it anyway, lost in his conversation with Sue. Shame I can't read lips right now, Lucy thought, wondering what they were talking about. She couldn't even begin to guess.

"Sue, what do you think Lucy would say if Bobby asked her to this Prom thing?"

"Didn't I already tell you she liked him?"

"Oh yeah, so you think she'd go with him?"

"Are you mad? Of course she would!"

"Oh. Good."

"Why's that?"

"Because... he's going to ask her next time he sees her."

"Oh! Well that's good." Sue replied, trying to hide her disappointment that Jack hadn't asked her to go yet.

The movie started shortly after the announcement was made that all movie viewers should switch off their mobile phones and that smoking in the theatre was forbidden, and they fell into a comfortable silence. Sue's head rested on Jack's shoulder and he entwined his hands with hers. Toward the end of the movie, Lucy watched as the pair gazed at each other and their heads moved closer together. Bobby couldn't resist, he threw a handful of popcorn in their direction, just before their lips met and they both turned in the general direction of where the popcorn had come from, spotting the group of their friends just three rows behind.

"Uh-oh busted." Amy whispered when she knew they'd been rumbled.

"No kidding! How do we get out of this one then, smarty-pants?" Tara retorted.

"Hey! You're the brainy one - you think of something." Lucy told her.

"I don't think there's any point in lying, actually. By the look on their faces, they know we only came here to spy on them..." Tara reasoned.

"Yeah, I suppose you're right. Come on." Bobby said, tugging Lucy's hand to indicate they were leaving.

Helen noticed the exchange, nodded to Tara, both girls giggling.

"Looks like it's only me, you and Amy that still need dates for this Prom thing then." Helen muttered.

"Actually, I think David's going to ask Amy on Monday."

"David? Are you talking about the same David she's been swooning over for the past month - as in Sue's brother?"

"The very same." Tara replied, "and I also happen to know that there's someone who has their eye on you..."

"Who?!"

"Ah, that would be telling! You'll just have to wait and see." And she ran to catch up with the gang before Helen had the chance to ask any more.

Oh god's this is so, so short, I know. And I promise to update sooner next time if permits ... and I'm working on the Prom chapter as of about ten seconds from now so please forgive me and review!
