“Thanks,” he tells Irene once she hands over the popcorn. Holding the bag, Bellamy takes a piece and tosses it into his mouth, chewing as he listens to her speak. He laughs a little, swallowing before he replies to her. “No but like I’m–” Okay, when he thinks about it, it does kind of sound like he’s trying to buy her service. Instead, he decides to say, “Consider it like compensation or something. I don’t wanna make you ditch work without getting anything back,” he tells her. It still kind of sounds like buying her service, but like buying someone’s service is like compliment, right? Like how you pay for talent to sing at parties? “I’ll buy all the Starbursts,” he assures her, confident at first. “Or at least a lot,” he corrects himself a moment later when he remembers his wallet does indeed come with a limit. “And like whatever else candy you think is worth tasting around here,” he says with a shrug. “We can have a party or something. Get sugar high. It’ll help me get through–” He takes his ticket out to see the title of the movie he just purchased a showing to. “New Moon…” He reads. Then he frowns. “Really hoping this isn’t some boring movie about space,” he tells Irene.
"it’s three ninety-nine for a regular box of starbursts, i’ll get you two.” would it be against some company policy for her to tell him the secret of getting cheaper candy across the street? maybe. either way she was already leaning over to slide open the plexi glass that helped display the sweets, grabbing two boxes of starburts and sitting them on the counter. “no way,” a stretch of her lips, pulling them into a yikes position but the face was soon lost when she chuckled. “keep your expectations high, bellamy, i can tell you it’s at least not a movie about space.” as she begins scanning the boxes of starbursts, she still finds herself hung up on the accidental movie purchase and it wasn’t until she tried to keep a straight face that she realized she was smiling the whole time. “you know, now that i think about it you seem like someone who’d feel strongly about the racial equality between werewolves and vampires.” back to the customer service charm, “can i get you anything else? a better taste in films? a team jacob tee from hot topic?”
