“Sure, keep acting like you weren’t just making fun of-“ I stop mid-sentence when I see a group of four men sitting at the very back of the theatre. “Is that who I think it is?” I laugh. The boys are in the worst disguises I’ve ever seen. Bucket hats, sunglasses, hoodies, and Davis even has a paper moustache.

Lucas groans and marches up the stairs, “what the fuck are you guys doing here?”

Blair stifles a laugh while August and Miller sink deeper into their seats and try to hide their faces. Davis smirks at him, looking him dead in the eyes before saying “we’re on a super secret mission Lukie, and right now you’re blowing our cover, so if you wouldn’t mind” he shoos us away with his hands.

I lean into Lucas, shaking with laughter while he glares at the boys in shock. “Oh come on, let’s just get in our seats, let them be nosy if they want” I say, pulling him down a couple rows and settling in the middle.

“They’re going to ruin this whole thing” he pouts.

I’m dating a child, “chill, it’ll be fine.”

The lights dim and screen lights up with trailers for upcoming films, most of them seem like they’re gonna be pretty good… unfortunately though, the laughs from my friends behind me are very distracting and I can’t focus for longer than two seconds.

What is with everyone and breaking my fucking focus today?

I don’t mind them being here, I actually think it’s quite funny, but the grump next to me doesn’t seem to agree. I never would have pegged him as the lovey-dovey, let’s go on cute dates, kind of guy… but here we are I guess.

Lucas wraps an arm around me, “if the boys weren’t in this theatre right now, we’d be the only ones in here” he whispers.

“So?”

“So, if we were completely alone I would be burying my face in your pussy right now.”

Fuck.

I don’t understand how he just say things like that.

My stomach fills with butterflies and my pussy starts to throb, every inch of my body lights on fire at the idea of Lucas using that magical tongue of his. I try my best to pretend like I’m not completely losing it right now, but based on the smirk he has on his lips, he knows what he’s doing to me.

“Don’t worry pretty girl, you’ll get your fill later.”

I hate him. I really fucking hate him.

He leans in to kiss me, but stops when a handful of popcorn hits the sides of our faces. “Stop whispering you two! It’s impolite to keep secrets” Davis laughs.

Miller throws another handful of popcorn at us, kicking his feet in a fit of laughter while Lucas starts to boil over with rage. His face turns red, annoyed that our date is being ruined by his friends… as if he expected anything less from them.

“Just get down here already!” I yell back to them. They aren’t here to ruin our fun, I know them better than that. They’re upset that they weren’t invited.

“Why the hell are you encouraging this?” Lucas whisper yells as the boys scramble out of their seats and rush to join us.

“Because” I smile, “they’re like little kids, they just don’t want to feel left out.”

Even if our date is being crashed by our friends, it’s not like we’re completely losing out on spending time together. Besides, we both know our relationship is anything but conventional, so why try to fit into that silly little box now?

Blair plops next to Lucas, with August on the other side of him, while Davis sits next to me with Miller. Davis reaches out a hand and intertwines our fingers while the others get sucked into the movie.

Lucas doesn’t notice, if he did… well, Davis probably wouldn’t have fingers anymore.

Davis looks at me, eyes filled with so much emotion I can’t quite decode what he’s got going on in that head of his. He may be an idiot, but he’s one of my favourite idiots.

‘We made it’ he mouths to me.

I smile, knowing that him and I have dealt with the worst of the worst, and despite it all we’ve somehow found the people in this world who can make it all better.

Miller runs around the parking lot with me on his back, laughing while running away from Lucas who threatens him to give me back. “She’s all of ours Lucas! You’re gonna have to learn to share” he yells.
