Leaf's POV
I took my sweet time in getting ready. I mean, it's not every day I get to go out on a date with Gary. I glanced at the clock, 6:49 P.M., it read.
"I better hurry up, Gary is picking me up at 7:00," (A/N: I know in the previous chapter, I said that Gary would pick Leaf up after school, but I can't work the edit button for some reason.) I thought to myself.
I quickly got my make-up bag from my bathroom drawer and unzipped it. I quickly put on some lip gloss and lined my eye with eyeliner. I put a soft rosy blush color onto my cheeks and powdered my face. (A/N: I don't really wear make-up much, so I don't know much about this kind of stuff.)
Then I grabbed my purse and and stashed some money into a purse pocket on the left.
"Knock! Knock!" said the door.
"Coming," I softly yelled.
I put my make-up bag cell phone into my purse and quickly wrote a note to my roommates:
Dear Everyone,
I'm going out for a little while, be back around eight or nine.
Cya,
Leaf
I didn't bother to tell my roommates about my date, really, although I should have.
I didn't know where everyone was anyways. I knew that May was quietly studying at the library and Misty was probably at the school's swimming pool, practicing, but Dawn? That is a mystery. I swung my bag onto my shoulder and headed for the door. I opened the door:
"Hey, Gary!" I said, greeting him.
"Hey, ready to have fun?" He asked.
I smiled, he offered his arm and I took it.
"Did you tell the office about our leave off campus?" I asked him.
"Yeah, why? Did you forget?" Gary said, smirking.
"Of course not!...Yeah." I flashed him an "I'm sorry" smile.
We continued to walk down the corridors and stairs to the school parking lot.
Here we are," he announced.
I stopped walking, my mouth agape.
"This is your car?" I said, running up to the car to get a better view. Who knew Gary could afford such things?
"Yep!" He told me. "After you," he said opening up the passenger seat door.
I giggled. "What a gentleman," I told him, sliding into the seat. Clearly, you could tell I was having a good time so far.
He walked across the car, to the driver's seat, slid in, and started the car. The air in the car became tense as we drove out of the school's garage and out on the streets. I knew that the movie theaters weren't far from here, but it was far enough to make awkward silence.
"So, um, Leaf, what movie do you want to watch?" Gary asked me.
I was puzzled for a moment, I didn't want to limit Gary's choices of movies. I quickly did a mind search on all recent movies that have come out. Maybe it was a good idea to go with a classic kiddy movie.
"Um, what movie do you want to watch?" I asked him. I decided to just go with whatever movie he wanted to watch. "I'm fine with whatever," I told him.
"We could watch Shrek 3," (A/N: I haven't watched the movie yet, so I don't know if it's good, but I'm going to!) he told me.
"Sure."
Right then, we drove into the parking lot of the movie theaters. Gary got out, walked across the car and opened the door for me. I stuck out a hand, I took it and he helped me out of the car. We begin to walk to the ticket window.
"Two tickets for Shrek 3 at 7:10, please," Gary said to the saleswoman, pushing the money for the tickets through the little hole in the window.
The lady gave us the tickets, and Gary murmured a "thanks," to her. We entered the lobby of the movie theater. We gave a man standing at the doorway our tickets.
"Theater 7, Enjoy the show!" he told us.
"Do you want to grab some popcorn before the movie? We have some time left." Gary told me. I nodded my head in agreement.
"Can I have one medium sized tub of popcorn and a medium cup of sprite please," I asked a lady working at concession stand.
"Make that two," Gary told the lady. She typed in our order.
"Twelve dollars and seventy-two cents," The cashier said. I was about to unzip my purse to search for my little money purse, but Gary stopped me.
"I'll pay," he told me.
"But you have already done so much!" I told him.
"Don't worry about it, I promised you a fun night, didn't I?"
He was being such a gentleman. Gary handed the lady a twenty dollar bill. The lady opened her cash register box, making a "ping!"sound. She handed Gary his change and went to get our orders. She then handed us a tray filled with two cups and two popcorn buckets. Gary murmured a thanks and we walked on to go find theater seven.
We walked down a hallway taking bends and turns at almost every corner.
"Theater seven, theater seven, theater seven, the-Oh here it is!,"
"After you, madame," Gary said, bowing and opening the door for me. I walked through and started up the lit stairs, Gary following. We had come just in time, the movie was starting. We took our seats and begin watching the movie. The movie was fairly empty, I guess not many kids watch these types of movies at night because only a few kids were in this theater.
1 hour and 33 minutes later... (A/N: This is really how long the movie is.)
I stood up and stretched. The movie was pretty good . Gary also stood up and offered me his hand. I took it and we walked down the steps together. As we neared an exit, I threw away the empty popcorn buckets and cups in a nearby trashcan. I walked ahead as Gary opened the door for me, but he caught up with me quickly. We walked past all the other theaters, pass some cardboard cut-outs, and what- nots, and then finally the exit to the movie theaters. He led me to his car, opening the door to the passenger's seat once more.
"Thank you," I told him, ducking my head under the roof of the car and getting myself situated in his car.
I let out a sigh as I heard another car door open and the engine starting. The short drive back to school was silent, but this time it didn't feel awkward. Gary stopped the car right in front of the security guard's booth, which was in front of the entrance to the school's garage.
"I need your I.D. , and the leave off campus slip," The man, in a security guard uniform demanded.
Gary took out his wallet and pulled out a white plastic card with his name on it and a yellow slip of paper. Her handed it to the man. He looked at it for awhile and then returned Gary's school I.D. The gates opened and Gary drove in. He drove his car up to level two and then parked. He got out and helped me out of the car. We walked to and through a bridge that connected the school's garage to the student's dormitory. There were two doors, one that led to the girl's dormitory and the other door leading to the boy's dormitory.
"I'll take you to your room first, I just have to open the door next to your room to get to mine." Gary said, offering me his arm and opening the door to the girl's dormitory.
We walked down many corriders until we found my room.
"Leaf, have you had your first kiss yet?" He asked me, a pink visible tint was on his cheeks.
I was shock at his question, but I answered it anyways.
"N-no, I h-haven't,"
"Would you mind if I had the honors of giving you, your first kiss?" he asked me.
I didn't answer, but I leaned in, and kissed him. It wasn''t a long kiss, but it wasn't too short.
As we drew apart he said,"Uh, I guess I'll see you later,"
I just nodded my head as he quickly turned around, and opened the door parallel to me.
So, how did you guys like that chapter? With the kiss and date. Sorry it was a late update. My mom just came back home from the airport and my hamster died, and it was just a hectic week. So, please review!
