Chapter 2: Date Night Interrupted Jade's POV
Seventeen year old Jade Collins stretched out on the couch, her boyfriend Timothy was in the kitchen getting popcorn. She sighed as she put her legs up on the couch laying on her side as she stared at the tv. 'God hurry up! I hope this isn't as bad as last episode.' Jade had been eagerly awaiting the midseason premiere of Gotham, determined to see what would happen. Jade was short, petite, with brown hair that went to her shoulders, pale skin and hazel eyes. Jade was currently wearing a Suicide Squad tee shirt and sweat pants. She was an avid fan and shipped nygmobblepot because she thought it was cute. However what really annoyed Jade was Ed acting like a little toddler and Oswald doing something incredibly stupid when he could've just done a little snooping. I mean come on! It's not that hard! Jade sighed. Still though, she hoped they would just get over themselves and talk it out like adults. Jade was broken out of her thoughts when she saw Timothy holding a big bowl of popcorn. Timothy was a tall boy with blond hair and some freckles. He was a bit lanky and skinny as a stick. He smiled sitting next to her. "Ready Jade?" he asked as Gotham started to come on. Jade nodded nervously and wrapped her arm around her boyfriend's as he set the popcorn down on the table. "Ready as I'll ever be." She jumped at the sound of loud thunder causing Tim to wrap his arm around her soothingly. Jade hadn't really expected a thunderstorm to happen that night. Kaitlyn, a friend from school said it was going to be some kind of electrical storm. She was also told that the power might go out. At least this wasn't a horror movie.
*A couple minutes into the episode*
Jade was practically hiding in Tim's chest as Oswald started to freak out on that guy on his birthday. What was even worse was the rotting corpse of his dad that Oswald discovered. Normally she was never scared of crap like this but it didn't creep her out any less. Timothy was trying to hide a cute smirk on his face from Jade hugging him so tightly. "Geez dude! This is some freaky shit!" Jade said once she heard of the plan to resurrect Jerome. Suddenly a loud roar of thunder tore through the house making Jade and Timothy both jump as the lights went out. "Shit! Just when things were getting good! Tim you wouldn't happen to know where the flashlights are would you?" Timothy nods, "Yeah. They're in the kitchen I'll be right back." He said this as he kissed her forehead and got up and went to the kitchen. Jade sighed thinking, 'God can this become anymore of a horror film cliche? I mean seriously!' Jade took out her phone to text Kaitlyn to see if her power had gone out as well.
Jade: Power off at ur place?
Kaitlyn: Yeah. U?
Jade: Yeah. I was just about to watch gotham with puddin.
Jade giggled to herself as she sent the text. She was a huge Harley Quinn fan that sometimes she called her boyfriend 'puddin'.
Kaitlyn: Ugh! Love birds. How's date night with the lights out? ;)
Jade blushed furiously once Kaitlyn sent that text knowing what she was implying.
Jade: Omg! U have a dirty mind! XD
Jade shut her phone off as Timothy came back to the living room holding two flashlights and handed one to Jade. Jade took the flashlight smiling nervously. "What happened? How did the lights go out?"she asked. Timothy shrugged, "Let me check the break-" He was cut off as the whole house shook violently, thunder booming loudly, Jade screamed as she tripped landing on her stomach. "WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON?" Jade screamed. As if to answer her question, the tv flickered on, static. "Uh Jade?" Timothy asked. Jade quickly grabbed her stuffed dog that she named 'Jeff' from the floor and pulled him to her chest, her heart pounding as a gust of wind blew from the tv. Timothy's eyes widened as he grabbed on to Jade holding her protectively. "OH SHIT!" Jade yelled as a bright light burst out blinding the two teenagers. "JADE!" Suddenly, they felt themselves being sucked closer to the screen, Jade grabbed Timothy's wrist desperately as they tried to fight against whatever was pulling them. "TIMMY!" she yelled as he was pulled away, Jade clung to the coffee table before she too was wretched away screaming. TBC...
SUSPENSE! I hope. XD
