Thank you in advance! Have a wonderful day! ❤️
Oh this should be a fun one!
As a rule, Jon hated horror movies. Mainly because he didn't find them scary and the gory ones just seemed to be in it more for the surprise and gross out factor than any actual story telling. In fact, he wasn't exactly a movie person, but preferring television shows. Specifically things like Parks and Rec, The Office, and his newest obsession, Ted Lasso.
But he couldn't tell his brother any of this because Robb didn't listen. Not when his new girlfriend decided that setting Jon up with her friend was necessary. He kept to himself, only went out on a few dates in the last few years, but they eventually all got tired of his stoic silence that they quickly ran away from him. And this was completely unacceptable to Margaery.
She was very pretty, distractingly so, but her cheerful personality grated on his nerves after a while. She always seemed to be performing but he was uncertain who she was performing for. Robb was completely smitten, extolling her virtues to anyone who would listen. Jon was usually the only person who would stick around long enough get an earful about his impressive and beautiful girlfriend. They were blissfully happy, which meant they felt the need to spread the misery around.
So, here he stood, in the lobby of a movie theater, with Robb looking around as Margaery stayed glued to her phone. When she suddenly looked up, her blue eyes were piercing. "She's walking up, now." Margaery stepped forward and brushed a hand over Jon's jacket. "Be charming."
"I'm always charmin'."
Robb snorted but Margaery gave him an indulgent smile. "Of course you are. Dany is my closest friend and I would love it if my closest friend and my boyfriend's brother hit it off."
"Margaery, it's one date, not an arranged marriage. I think I can handle watching a movie."
She only gave him a nervous smile then turned back to Robb. His brother took her by the hand and pressed a kiss to her temple. "It'll be fine, love."
The three of them grew quiet, when suddenly, Margaery waved her hand in the air. And between the people came possibly the most gorgeous woman he'd ever seen. Her long blond hair hung in soft waves around her face. She had on the barest traces of make up, but her plump lips were outlined in a shimmering pink gloss. Her perfect little body was wearing a red Kashmir jumper, tight black jeans, and black boots that sat on top up to the knee. She finally reached Margaery and the two women hugged.
"So glad I found you, this place is a mad house."
Jon was struck dumb by her, as her violet eyes moved over the three and settled on him. A soft pink blush appeared on her cheeks and he realized he must look like a crazy person staring at her as he was.
"Dany, this is Jon. Jon, this is Dany."
They locked hands and she smiled. "I've heard a lot about you, Jon. Pleasure to meet you."
"Same," he said with a nod, but could see Robb and Margaery share a look over her shoulder. "You look... amazing."
She smiled. "Thank you. So, do you like popcorn?" she asked and directed them to the booth.
He nodded and pulled out his wallet. "Of course. Movies without popcorn just don't feel as impressive."
She gave a small laugh. "I suppose not." They waited in line and he had to remind himself not to stare at her and let her think he was a total creep. "So, Jon, are you a butter on your popcorn kind of guy?"
He shrugged. "I'm more of a dump gummy bears into it instead kind of guy."
She suddenly smiled. "Gummy bears? I usually Go Reece's Pieces."
He looked at her with raised eyebrows. "We could do both. A gummy/chocolate/popcorn conglomeration."
"Sounds delightful," she said with a bright smile that it was difficult to look away. They stepped up to the counter and he bought and paid for all of the snacks as well as a pack of Twizzlers." She held the candy as he carried the drinks and the popcorn.
"Margaery didn't tell me what movie we were seeing," Dany admitted.
"The Conjuring," he answered as he handed over the tickets.
"You're joking!" She said as she grabbed his forearm.
They didn't want for Margaery and Robb, but walked ahead into the theater. She was silent as they sat and once in their seat, he held the popcorn on his lap and dumped the gummy bears in followed by the Reece's. He noticed how tense she was and frowned. "You alright?"
"Oh! Yeah! Why are they showing this movie again? Isn't it like... ten years old?"
He shrugged. "I think it's a cruel trick on me."
"Why do you think that?" she asked, and he looked up at her with a wary smile.
"I don't like horror movies."
She seemed to sag in relief. "Neither do I. The world is scary enough."
"Exactly. If I want to be scared, I'll start opening my mail to see how much I still owe on student loans."
She laughed then took a drink of her soda. "I suppose that's far more terrifying that demon possession."
"It certainly is to me. When was the last time a demon mentioned paying back thousands of dollars in debt? I don't think it's all that big of an issue to them. But people like me, scariest thing in the world."
The room suddenly went dark as the previews began to play. He handed her a napkin before she grabbed any popcorn, knowing how he hated the combination of butter and salt on his fingers. As the first scene of the movie came up, she leaned into him and pressed her lips to his ear and whispered, "I’m not scared but if you are, you can hold my hand."
He smiled and took her hand in his. She looked over at him as he stared at her, his heart racing, but not because of the creepy doll on the screen. "Terrified."
