Chapter 6

Placing an arm around Aub and running his fingers through his mohawk Maurice thinks. Looking down at her he gets an idea. Without a word he turns her in a circle and heads off to their right. "Your gonna love this babe," he chuckles to himself.

"Really, where are we heading?"

He stops, then looks at her with big eyes; "I have a better idea." reaching into his pocket he pulls out a scarf. Turning Aub to face him he ties it around her eyes keeping her from seeing where they are heading.

"Maurice what are you up too?"

"Babe give me a minute, we'll be there soon and I want it to be a surprise."

He takes her hand in his and leads the way. They twist and turn several times and Aub swears they are doing circles. After a bit they stop walking. She can hear music and talking in the background, Maurice holds onto her hand gently the warmth of it makes her feel relaxed.

"Well babe, we're here," he chuckles again. "Are you ready to see where I brought ya. Or are you enjoying the blindfold and being led by yours truly?"

She laughs "just take it off Maurice?"

"Leaning towards her ear he says most people don't take anything off until after the third date babe, but for you I'll make an exception."

Her face turns red from blushing, she hopes he meant the blindfold she's not sure if she wants to see Maurice take anything else off, yet. Maurice watches her face change colors and laughs to himself. Oh she looks so innocent he thinks. Taking the scarf in his two hands he slowly removes it from her eyes. "Good to see ya again babe, my are you bright eyed this evening."

Looking around she is surprised to see that they are standing outside a room. Behind it's doors she can hear voices and music. "Maurice, where are we?"

He grins and reply, "why babe, we already had dinner now we can see a movie." Wrapping an arm around her waist he pulls her inside and leads her into a room half filled with monsters. Taking her up a small ramp he leads her to the back of the room where they sit his arm behind Aub's head on her chair he relaxes.

"I didn't know you had a movie theater down here."

"Of course babe, how else do you think we watch movies."

"I never really thought about it before."

"Hey babe, are eyou hungry or thirsty I can get us a snack, for the movie if you want."

"Sounds good, but I just want a drink."

Tilting her head up to look at him he grins, "ok one drink now don't let just any monster sit next to ya, this seat is reserved for the good looking one, that brings you back a drink." He winks at her and gets up walking down the ramp and out of sight.

After he is out of sight Aub places a hand on where Maurice had touched her face. She can still feel the warmth of his fingers on her. Half smiling she sits back and looks around. A few more monsters slip into the room and it grows even darker as the screen comes to life.

Outside at the concession stand Maurice looks at the menu. "Ok," turning to the monster in charge he says one large popcorn two large sodas and several butterfingers." The monster looks at him in wonder, "your really gonna eat all of this again Maurice? Last time you did that you were so high on life you were practically floating." Naw bud, I brought a friend some of it's for them." Smiling the monster hands Maurice the stuff in a box so he can carry it all. "Have a good one then, Maurice," he calls out as Maurice heads away.

Coming back into the room he left her in Maurice is happy to see that they had the entire back section to themselves. He strides over to her and hands her a pop. "I got a few things in case you changed your mind" he says.

Smiling up at him she relaxes against his arm when he places it back behind her head. "so what are we gonna see?" Just as she says this the movie starts and to her surprise it just got into theaters back in her world. "Maurice, how did this get down here?"

"Easy babe, they are always losing a few new copys when things hit theaters, just gotta know who to head to, to get what ya want." He smiles at her and then turns his attention back to the movie that's playing. The movie lasts about an two hours but time doesn't matter to Aub. She still feels the warmth of Maurice and feels safe against him. As the movie comes to an end they wait for the others to leave before getting up.

Stuffing the last of the butterfingers into his pocket he turns toward Aub. "Ready to head out we still have a few hours left?"

She nods and he walks ahead of her slightly. "Hey Maurice, do you get many new movies down here?"

Turning around and walking backwards he says "all the time babe, but I don't watch nearly half of them. Maybe I'll watch more if your with me though."

She blushes then trips over a foot from a sleeping monster on the ramp. As she falls forward Maurice trys to catch her but ends up falling with her. She lands on top of him and for a brief second their lips brush against each other. Their eyes go wide as they realized what happened and both blush. Yet for some reason they can't seem to stand up just yet, all they can do is look into each others eyes.

Finally Aub blinks and she then quickly stands up. Helping Maurice to his feet she keeps her head down as she utters a small "I'm sorry."

"hey no problem babe," he runs his fingers through his mohawk and then touches his lips gently when he thinks she is not looking. Wrapping an arm around Aub's shoulders they walk out into the night.

"Maurice, I was wondering do you have a girlfriend?"

Laughing nervously "no babe, never had one, couldn't find a girl I felt comfortable around other then you."

Stopping in her tracks Maurice stumbles a bit ahead. Turning he faces her, "what's wrong babe?"

"Maurice I'm the first girl you feel comfortable around?"

Walking back up to her and tilting her head up towards his he takes a deep breath. "Your the only girl I think about and enjoy being around. I've always wanted to talk to you when you were younger, but now that your here with me, I never wanna lose you. Your perfect to me and your smile is amazing, it makes me feel happy just to spend time with ..."

Before he can even finish speaking Aub throws her arms around his neck and kisses him on his lips. He wraps his arms around her and pulls her tighter against his body. They kiss for a mere couple of minutes but to them it feels like an eternity.

"I'm sorry" Aub says as she pulls away.

Pulling her back against him "don't be I wanted to do that for a long time."

Leaning her head against his chest she sighs in relief. "My dad is so gonna kill you Maurice if he finds out."

"Naw me and Bri are tight, besides we don't have to tell him anything yet. He wanted you to have a good time with me, and are you babe?"

"The time of my life Maurice," she replys.

Tilting her head up again he kisses her softly on the lips. "Well then we just won't mention are feelings for each other to him just yet."

Wrapping an arm around her waist he leads her deeper into the monster world. "Lets have some fun before I gotta take you home babe."
