Hey everyone!

Some of you asked for it, so here's Eddie going on a date with Venom trying to offer advice. What could go wrong?

Enjoy!

Let's Go to the Movies

"I heard great things about this movie," Emily Bowman said, taking her bag of popcorn from the snack attendant.

"Me too," Eddie added, hoping that he had not answered too quickly or too loudly. "And any movie about dinosaurs is bound to be good."

"Well, I predict that Jurassic Park will become a classic," the girl replied, the two of them walking towards the correct theatre. They did not say anything as they sat down in their seats, right as the trailers were starting.

YOU SHOULD HAVE SAID SOMETHING, Venom said in Eddie's head.

Like what, the boy thought. We both agree that this movie's gonna be good. What else should I have said?

WE DON'T KNOW, BUT MAYBE YOU SHOULD'VE COMMENTED ON HOW NICE SHE LOOKS.

Like her outfit? Eddie glanced over at Emily, who was eating her popcorn one kernel at the time. She does look nice.

WE KNOW; WE CAN READ YOUR THOUGHTS, REMEMBER? The girl noticed Eddie looking at her, and he quickly turned back towards the screen. AND DON'T STARE AT HER LIKE A CREEPER!

I'm not trying to, the boy protested. I'm still surprised she said yes; I'm not exactly a cool guy.

THAT MUCH IS OBVIOUS.

"Hey!"

"What," Emily whispered, looking over at him. "Did you say something?"

"N-N-No," he replied quickly, cheeks burning with humiliation as the symbiote snickered in his head. And you be quiet! I want to enjoy the movie.

FINE. WE'LL BUTT OUT.

The movie started a while later, and it looked like Emily's prediction was going to be true. It was a thrill ride from the start, and everyone in the theater watched with bated breath whenever the characters were hiding from the dinosaurs.

Eddie was enjoying the movie, but froze when he suddenly felt something touch his hand. Glancing down, he saw that Emily had moved her hand to grab his. He looked at her, and she looked back at him, smiling a little.

TAKE HER HAND, YOU IDIOT, Venom snapped in his head.

Please shut up. He took her hand, their fingers interlocking as they turned back to the screen. Eddie found that it was hard to focus on the plot, feeling his date's hand in his.

DOES THIS MEAN SHE LIKES YOU, the alien asked.

I think so? Maybe she's just scared.

WHY WOULD SHE GRAB YOUR HAND IF SHE WAS SCARED?

Girls do that all the time! They want to feel safe or something with a guy nearby.

SO… WHY WOULD SHE CHOOSE A WIMP LIKE YOU? Eddie rolled his eyes as the alien laughed in his head, and did his best to focus on the movie.

Afterwards, Eddie and Emily walked out of the theater with everyone else, talking about the characters and the plot.

"That one scene with the T-Rex was so cool," Emily said. "You know, when it nearly ate the kids in the car?"

"My favorite part was the raptors in the kitchen," Eddie said, throwing out his empty popcorn bucket. "There's no way I would have survived that!"

YES YOU WOULD, Venom spoke up. WE'D EAT THEM IF THEY TRIED TO HURT US.

"My mom should be waiting outside for me," Emily continued. "Do you need a ride home?"

"Nah, my dad's gonna get me."

"Okay." The two teens looked at one another for a few moments, unsure of what to say. "Uh… I had a great time tonight."

Dang it! Why didn't I ask her that, Eddie thought.

"Y-Yeah, me too," he said out loud. "We should totally do it again sometime."

Emily smiled. "Yes, I think we should," she agreed. Suddenly, she stepped forward and planted a quick kiss on his cheek, walking away towards the exit! "See you in class!"

"... Yeah… see you," the boy muttered, frozen in place. His cheek tingled a little from where she had kissed it, and he was tempted to touch it.

SO SHE OBVIOUSLY LIKES YOU, Venom asked, shocking him out of his state of bliss. MAKE SURE WE'RE BEST SYMBIOTE AT YOUR WEDDING.

"Dude! What the hell?!"

WHAT? DID WE SAY SOMETHING WRONG?

Poor Venom. He means well, but he still has a lot to learn about our world.

I do not own Jurassic Park at all.
