Hey everybody! I was thinking of adding another chapter to this story, but didn't really have the inspiration to do it intil someone said I should(Thanks Tinuviel Undomiel!)
"Will this day ever end? Elizabeth asked herself as she yet again had to listen to Rodney ramble on and on about some topic she forgot about a half an hour ago. She had been very antsy all day, thinking about her and John's second movie night.
They were supposed to have it in forty-five minutes, and she wanted to be able to go to her quarters and fix herself up a little for John...
"And that's what I think we should do." Rodney finished, interupting her thoughts.
"Yeah sure, that's fine, Rodney."
"Really?"
"Yep" she said. With that Rodney skipped out of the room.
She sighed, laying her head in her hands. "Finally, he's gone!" Realising this made her jump out of her chair. "I need to get ready!" Elizabeth rushed out of her office, ignoring everyone's stares.
Every step John made down to the "RECREATION ROOM" made him more nervous. Would she like the movie he picked out? That question kept going through his mind over and over. He kept reasuring himself, "Of course she'll like it John, she loves anything you do"
And every time he said that he laughed. But, his silent giggles turned into nervous stares when he saw her opening the door to what he now suddenly found himself calling the room that would be the death of him. She looked so beautiful even from a distance,
her hair was combed, and freshly curled, and it looked like she glowed when she walked. Was he going to be able to make through the night without having a heart attack?
Elizabeth walked proudly through the halls of Atlantis. She was very happy about the way she looked, and was very excited to see John's reaction. She reached the door, and started opening it when she saw John walking around the corner and stop in mid step.
She decided to pretend not to notice him, and close the door. As soon as it closed she let out a small giggle, and sat on the couch to waiy for him. She sat there fiddling with her hair for about two minutes, when it seemed he finally got the courage to come in. "Note to self," she thought,"give John crap about this later."
"Hey Liz'beth" he said.
"Hello John"
"So, ready for another movie night?"
"Definetley," she said trying not to laugh out loud because of seeing him so nervous.
"All right."
John walked over to the shelf full of DVD's, while Elizabeth went to shut off the lights. "Hope she likes this",he thought, and walked over to the tv and put the disk in. The movie started, and the beginning credits started to roll. Elizabeth watched intently while John watched for her reaction.
"The Neverending Story?" she asked, and started to laugh.
"Yep, so this never ends."
"You never cease to suprise me, John."
"Hey, at least you don't have a reason to call me Mr. Predictable!"
"True," she said gigling, and turned back to watch the movie.
Half way through the movie Elizabeth turned to look at John. Just like last week he had the same boyish smile plasterd on his face. But yet there was something different in his eyes. Whatever it was, she didn't seem to be able to put her finger on it and right when she thught she almost had it he turned his head to look at her. She quickly went back to watching the movie, trying not to blush.
John wasn't very interested in the movie, but he was trying not to show it. He was to preoccupied by the fact that Elizabeth was starring at him. "Do I have something in my teeth?" he asked himself. Finally, he turned to face her, but she quickly went back to watching the movie as he did so. He saw her blush, and told himself,"Note to self, give her crap about this in the future."
As the movie drew to a close, the two started to yawn more than they both could count. John turned the tv off, and turned to face her.
"Like it?"
"Love y...loved it" she stutered. "That was a close one, Liz", she thought.
"Good",John said pretending not to notice her little slip.
"Well, I guess we should call it a night."
"Sure"
They both got up quickly, and before they knew it bumped into each other and fell to the floor. Elizabeth fell first, with John following and fell on top of her.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, John."
"Don't worry about it."
They both got up, and started laughing.
"That was awkward," Elizabeth said, letting out a another string of laughs.
"Yes, yes it was."
They both walked to the door, and stopped in front of it.
"Same time next week?" she asked.
"Yep and you get to choose the next movie."
"It will be an Honor." She grinned.
Elizabeth grabbed the doorknob, but John stopped her.
"Lizzie."
"Yes?"
John silently walked up to her and gave her a small, but sweet kiss.
"I can't wait."
With that John stepped in front of her and walked out the door, leaving Elizabeth speachless.
