Danny sent me a text that we were gonna start the movie at about 4:30 When I got to Danny's house, Tucker and Valerie were already there sitting on the couch looking pissed at Danny.
"Hiya Sam..." He greeted me sheepishly.
"What's up?" I questioned.
Danny sighed and bowed his head.
"We can't watch the movie because my dad took the TV to experiment on. Valerie's Dad doesn't let boys over so we can't watch it there and Tucker doesn't have a TV he just uses his computer..."
"I have been waiting too long to see this Danny! I did my waiting... 12 YEARS... IN AZKABA- wait wrong thing. BUT COME ON DUDE WE HAVE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS FOR SO LONG! " Tucker wailed. He suddenly stopped his fake weeping and turned to me wide-eyed.
"Wait a second. Sam... You have a... TV right?"
"Technically..."
"Please please please please please!" Tucker begged while holding his hands together.
I sighed.
"I guess we can watch it at my house..." I said irritated.
"Thank you Sam! I could kiss you!" Tucker exclaimed.
"One rule: no one is allowed to say anything about my house or where we watch the movie. Got it?" I said sternly. They all nodded. I just don't want them to judge me, it's not my fault that my parents decided to get a big house.
When we got to the outside of my house Tucker's mouth hung open, Valerie's eyes were wide and Danny I could tell was trying to keep his face neutral. I could feel the heat rising in my neck and coloring my cheeks.
As we walked through the large front door to the forye I heard my grandmother.
"Sam, darling" she rounded the corner from the living room on her motor wheel chair.
"Could you help me with- oh! Are these friends of yours?" She said with a huge smile.
"Yea we are just going downstairs to watch a movie. What do you need help with?" "Oh nothing I'm just trying to figure out how to make my scooter go faster, Marlee and I want to race our chairs since she just got a new one, I remember there was a gear or something..."
Tucker walked over with his hand on his chin looking at the chair.
"Hmm… Let me look inside." He said opening the back of the chair.
"There you go! should have sped it up a tiny bit" Tucker said with a smile. We all looked at him in awe.
"What my granny has the same one!" He shrugged.
We laughed.
"Just be careful while racing, and no foul play!" I said kissing her forehead as we walked downstairs.
"Careful my butt! I'm gonna make Marlee eat my dust! And as for foul play I will make no such promises."
"Your grandma is adorable." Valerie said as we went into the basement.
We went to the room to the left of the stairs. It was a large white wall that we put a projector on to watch movies and had two rows of four reclining chairs which Tucker proceed to jump and sprawl over all of the chairs in the first row.
"This place is awesome." He stated.
"Hey Tucker, if you set up the movie I will go start some popcorn, the Blu Ray player is right over there by the projector" I said pointing to the back of the room. I went to the far right corner of the room where the popcorn machine was.
"Sam, I hope you know that we are never watching movies anywhere but here from now on." Valerie said comfortably from the chair on the far right.
"Yea, I guessed that would happen." I sighed with a smile.
"We could do a movie night every once in a while?" Danny asked.
"Totally!" Tucker said sitting down in the chair in between Danny and Valerie. I put the popcorn into four bags and sat in the chair next to Danny and passed it down.
"And now for Guardians of the Galaxy!" Tucker said excitedly as the opening song, Come and Get your Love started playing.
"That was awesome. Sam you are a beautiful human being." Tucker said calmly as the credits ended.
I smiled. The movie was great and my friends were still liked me for me.
"Do you all want anything to eat or drink?" I asked trying to be a good host.
"Sure do you have coke?" Danny asked.
"Mt. Dew?" From Tucker.
"Just water for me, want help?" Valerie asked.
Out of the three of them I was most worried about her reaction about my house, I remember her telling me that her family lost all of their money because of a ghost accident.
"Sure"
Once we got to the top of the stairs and the door was closed she said with a sly smile,
"Sooo, what's going on between you and Danny?"
My heart paused for a second.
"What?" I was not expecting this conversation.
"What do you mean?" Damm I could feel the heat rising in my cheeks.
"I think you know what I mean." She said raising her eyebrows.
"Same thing that's going on between you and Tucker." I replied with a smile.
"Tusche" she smiled then added.
"We totally need a girls night sometime, we could watch dumb chick flicks and have a sleepover, either your house or mine which ever you want."
"That actually sounds like a great idea I'd love that." I smiled.
Once we got the drinks we started walking down the stairs when we heard,
"HA! Suck it!"
Valerie and I just stood in the doorway looking in the movie room to where Danny was standing triumphantly on top of Tucker who was laying on the floor buried beneath all the pillows from the chairs.
Thanks to all the great reviews and to everyone who has followed me or the story! It makes me so happy each time I get an email saying there was a new follow/favorite/review!
Sadly I leave for college in one day so updates will be a lot further apart. I have pretty much most of the story worked out but I still have to write it up and stuff. I will be trying to get out at least two or three more chapters either tonight or tomorrow if I can.
