"So, can you come?" Rose asked.
"Well, I really don't want to intrude…" I said doubtfully.
"Nonsense" Rose replied firmly. "You'll love it. And so will we. It'll be great!"
"OK, I'm in" I smiled at her. "Movie night, here we come!"
"You're coming?" Jasper asked, appearing out of the blue. I hesitated.
"Yes!" I said confidently. "I am!"
"That's great, Alice" He said quietly.
"Well, come on, then!" Rose ordered, waving me towards her car.
"What?" I asked, confused.
"Oh, sorry" She apologized "I guess I forgot to mention Movie Night starts now"
"But it's not even dark yet!" I whined.
"If you wanna survive this, go with the flow" Jazz suggested "Or with Rose, to be exact"
I nodded and followed them into the shiny red convertible and then Rose drove towards her home.

Seeing Alice in my house was… yeah. It was weird. With her actually there, everything looked oddly different, though nothing had actually changed, of course.
"Wanna pick a movie?" Rose asked her "I don't remember whose turn it is, so you'll probably be avoiding, like, a huge fight"
"Sure" Alice grinned, her shyness gone. Rose happily plopped down on the couch.
"Now, first things first" She stated "Voting. I'm all for a romantic comedy"
Oh, please. Not gonna happen. "Horror" I added.
Alice thought about it for a moment and smiled. I could practically hear the drum roll. "Definitely horror"
"Traitor!" Rose accused, pouting.
I rolled my eyes and opened the crystal doors of the huge, DVD-filled bookcase next to the TV and smiled at Alice "Take your time. The horror movies are at the top. I'll go make some popcorn"
Her big black eyes grew. And grew. And then they grew some more. Pleased with her reaction, I wandered into the kitchen.
"I better go get the drinks" I heard Rose tell her "What would you like? We've got Coke, 7-UP, Minute Maid, water and I think Dad made some lemonade"
"Lemonade's perfect, if you have some" Alice answered "Water's cool, too"
I imagine Rose nodded, because the next thing I knew she was opening the fridge next to me.
"Why do you think Alice chose horror?" I wondered quietly. I could practically hear Rose shrug.
"I dunno, Jazz" Huh. New nickname "Maybe she likes it. Maybe she wanted to agree with you. Or maybe she knows she'll freak out, shriek and cuddle up. Only way to find out is to ask her"
"Should I?" I asked. Rose smacked her hand to her forehead.
"No! Just… Ugh. Never mind" She drawled. "What matters is, we've gotta make her sit next to you"
"Why is that so important?" I asked. I swear, women complicate everything. Rose sighed dramatically.
"Because" She explained "That way, I can spill some soda on myself, go clean up and you can kiss her"
My sister has gone insane. Oh, God. I think the number for the insane asylum is next to the phone...
"What?"
"Oh, don't be such a wuss!" She snapped "Put your arm around her, first. Then just- you know- lean in… and ask her. Ask first. It'll be more romantic that way"
"Whoa, there, girl" I said, holding up my hands "This is all going too fast"
"It's been a week!" Rose complained "And you haven't even asked her out on a date! She'll think you're not interested!"
"Fine. So what's the plan to get her in the middle, then?"
Rose grinned "There is no plan"
I nodded.
"Oh, good. My favorite type"
