I Want Candy

They pulled out of the diner and went back to the old abandon park by the Candy Warehouse that was recently shut down.

"Craig why did you tell me to pull in here?"

"Because I have another surprise for you."

"Okay" They both got out and went inside passing the askew Candy Creators Warehouse.

The fence was old and had a whole in it through which they climbed.

"Craig how did you think of this place?"

"Simple it's old, desolate, and all ours."

"Oh well I like that point."

They opened the doors and there was accent lighting in all the dark corners and a stage erected in the middle.

"What's this for?"

"Well I remember you said you love to sing to I asked your father if he would buy this cheap, old wear house so that I could surprise you."
"You mean my father did this?"

"Technically yes, but I had the idea."

"Well I love you both equally so there is no reason for jealousy."

"Who's jealous?" "You"

"Okay maybe a little. Oh I also put in something of my own." He pulled out a flash-light and led Alexis to another room upstairs the was a bedroom.

"It will be a place to runaway from reality."

"Cool anything else Mr. Tour guide?"

"Well of course my lady."

He led her down the hall to a room that was totally dark.

"Okay lights miser."

"Hang on the fuse must be out." He walked to the fuse box across the hallway and opened it using the flashlight he recently grabbed to search for the messed up fuse.

Click. And moments later the lights in the room where Alexis stood came on to reveal a room mirrored from floor to ceiling. With drapery in each corner.

"What is this place?"

"Really now I thought you of all people would recognize it. A dance studio I built just for you. However I had some help from the guys since I got us the practice space."

"How cool." Out of pure joy she ran to him tackling him to the ground.

"Gah." Craig fell backward catching Alex in his arms.

"I love you for doing this."

"I loved you before this."

They kissed passionately and stood up.

"What time is it?"

"Nearly midnight."

"What we've been here for almost an hour. Damn I have to get home before Joey realizes I snuck out the window."

"Okay lets go."

Suddenly just as he began to walk out of the room the lights went out again.

From out side they saw a shadow in the hall.

"Oh no its Zack."

"What?"

"Good guess Lexis love." The out came Zack from the drapery in the corner.

"I SAID STOP CALLING ME THAT."

"But it is so much fun to see you scream when I do. Remind you of anything?"

She looked at Craig tears in her eyes. She said nothing hoping for a response from him in her defense, but none came.

"Leave now boy and you get your life, but leave this whore to me."

With that Craig walked out of the room looking only at Zack the entire way. As the sound of the door shutting filled the room Alexis turned to run from Zack. Catching her effortlessly he tackled her to the ground.

"CRAIG HELP." But no one came.
