Drake and Melody walked to her car, his arm around her waist.

Drake, being the gentleman that he is, opened the door for Melody and then, once she was in, got in too. Melody sat there, unmoving for a minute or two.

"Something wrong Melody?"

Melody smiled. "Megan told me that you were taking me out and you wouldn't be home til really late. So, what are your plans?"

Melody could see, even in the darkness, that Drake's face was turning a light shade of pink.

"I…I…um…I mean it's nothing really. I just was thinking that since you might not have gotten to eat anything after work, we could maybe grab a bite to eat or something." He said, looking at her, smiling.

"Sure. Right now though, let's go to the movies." She suggested, starting the engine.

A semi-awkward silence filled the car. Melody could feel the silence turning awkward so she asked Drake if he minded if she turned the radio on. He said sure and now the radio was the only thing that filled the silence.

After what seemed like an eternity, the two arrived at the Premiere. Drake got out and opened her door for her. Drake noticed that Melody was shivering slightly, so he took off his jacket and put it over and smiled when she looked up at him.

I knew he was sweet, but I NEVER thought he was this sweet, she thought as Drake held the door open for her.

Once they were in the warm building, Melody looked up at Drake. "So what are going to see?"

"Um…How does 'Monster of the Bride' sound?"

"Sounds good to me." Melody said, smiling. Drake smiled and walked with her over to the ticket booth.

He got the tickets and he and Melody walked over to the concession stand. Drake took out his wallet and looked down at Melody, who already had her wallet out to and was ordering what she wanted.

"Mel, I'll pay."

"Drake. You don't have to."

"But I want to…So will you let me?" he asked, making a little pouty face.

She smiled and put her wallet away. "I will pay you back though."

"You don't have to Mel. I really don't mind; besides, this was my idea, remember?"

She nodded and smiled. After they got popcorn, soda, and lots of candy, the walked into the theater and sat down in the very back. Melody, sitting in the chair but with her back against Drake's side, looked up at him.

"Want some popcorn?" she asked, her mouth semi-full.

Drake laughed and said, "Sure." and dug in the tub of popcorn, grabbing only a handful and cramming it into his mouth.

The movie began and Melody snuggled closer to Drake, laying her head on his shoulder. After the shock wore off, he numbly put his arm around her and held her close.

"Drake," she whispered a few minutes later, "Thank you."

Drake smiled again and pulled her closer and gently squeezed her.

She smiled too.

"Drake?"

"Yeah?"

Melody sat up in her seat and caught Drake's lips in a kiss. Drake broke the kiss and smiled at her.

Melody's face, even in the dark, was red. Drake pulled her back into a hug and held her. Melody got comfortable and fell asleep.

After the movie was over, Drake woke her up.

"Come on Mel…Wake up." He gently shook her.

She opened her eyes and looked into his brown eyes and yawned.

"I'm up…I'm up…I think…"

Drake laughed and stood.

"Come on." He picked her up and carried her out of the theater and out to her car.

Drake laid her down in the backseat and got in the driver's seat.

"We're going to go to my house and you can call you mom from there…Or do you wanna go to your house and I'll walk from there?"

"No…Let's get something to eat first…Then your house." She said groggily.

Drake smiled, "Okay. Food first then my house."

(A/N: This has gotta be one of my longer chapters…Not by much but it is. I wonder what's going to happen after they head to Drake's house…)
