Over the next few days Ron and Miki hung out with each other slowly warming up toward one another. Ron hung out with Kim less and less. Eventually he got up the courage to ask Josh to the dance, but Ron was too worried about asking Miki that to worry about Kim.
"Ron? Isn't there a dance coming up at school?" casually asked Miki 3 days before the dance. She wanted Ron to ask her, but she doubted it; he was too shy around her.
"Uh yeah, there is" said Ron. He avoided eye contact with her. He wanted to ask her so badly but he didn't know if she would say yes. He had never felt this shy before. He always acted how he felt. This was very new to him. Ron did ask her one thing though," would you like to see a movie tonight?" If he asked her to the dance that was one thing. If she thought this was just another hanging out trip, she might say yes.
"Sure!" she said with the smile that made him melt.
Miki was happy to hear this, but she wasn't sure if it was a date or not he was asking her to go on. She hoped it was a date.
Miki got ready to go to the movies. She wore a black long-sleeved shirt and dark jeans. She put on her Goth jewelry and left her long black hair down. Her striking green eyes had mascara and eyes shadow that made her look even more menacing. She loved to dress evilly, although it didn't fit her shy personality very well.
Ron came to the door in his usual outfit. They were going to walk to the movies, scene they were so close to Miki's house. They started talking about random things, such as Bueno Nacho, the mall, and Kim. When they got to the theater there was a choice between a romantic movie and an action flick. Miki slyly shoved Ron over toward the romantic one. Ron blinked. Does she think this is a date?
They found there seats and the movie started. Ron and Miki shared a pop and a bag of popcorn. The characters in the movie started kissing; Miki and Ron looked at each other, slowly moving forward. Just as they were about to kiss, Miki was uplifted from her seat. She shrieked. "Ron!"
