We drove to the theatre in silence. It was kind of awkward knowing that we were destined to be together.
When we arrived, he offered me the choice of the movie. There weren't a lot of options. It was either 'Attack of the Zombies', 'The Love Doctor', or 'We were young'.
I decided to go with 'Attack of the Zombies'. It was a horror and wouldn't be as awkward as seeing 'The Love Doctor'.
The movie was extremely scary. I flinched every time a horrific zombie came on the screen. A whole hoard of them came onto the movie screen and instinctively I grabbed Paul's hand.
We stopped for a moment. In my peripheral vision I saw Paul look down at my hand and smile. I guess this is what he always wanted. To be with me.
It was soothing holding his hand. It made me feel calm. His hand was so warm. It wasn't sweaty it was just nice.
When the movie finished we walked out of the theater still holding hands.
"What did you think of the movie?" Paul asked.
"It was... ok. Horror isn't really my forte."
Paul laughed.
"Do you want to, maybe, go out for dinner? I know that there's a nice restaurant just outside."
"That... would be great."
I smiled at him and he led me towards the resturant.
