This is my first story here on Literotica. I've been reading here for quite some time. I hope you enjoy it, and I'd love your feedback.
Standing in line at the movie theater, I gaze around at the architecture.
They don't build them like this anymore,
I think to myself. The cream-colored walls of the lobby are highly textured, nothing is smooth and modern. There is ornate crown molding wherever a wall meets the ceiling, and it is painted in red and gold. Centrally displayed on the wall is a poster for tonight's feature, King Kong. Yes, I said poster, this is a one-screen theater. Surrounding the poster for King Kong, there are historic posters from the early years. There are few modern things here in the lobby other than the cash register and card reader. Even the employees are dressed in clothing reminiscent of the past.
As I gaze around the lobby while I wait, I see him out of the corner of my eye. My breath catches. He's handsome, with tousled blonde hair and mustache, his skin is tan, and he's well but casually dressed. Dark slacks and a polo shirt are his attire tonight.
I take a long, steady scan around the room, ultimately fixing my gaze on him. I hold it until he notices me. I give him a soft smile, then look down to the side briefly before looking back at him. I've caught his attention because he's still looking. I smile again and then break my gaze once more. I touch my collarbone and primp my hair a bit as I turn slightly towards him.
"What can I get for you ma'am?" asks the snack bar attendant.
I turn my attention to the young woman and order a small soda. I pay her as another employee sets my order on the counter. I step aside and wander around the lobby, pretending to be interested in the historic movie posters. I occasionally return my gaze to him. He smiles. A few moments later I sense someone near me.
"I assume that you're a fan of the classics," he says. His voice is deep and smooth as softened butter.
I turn to him and give him my full smile, pearly white teeth, red lips, and sparkling eyes. Standing this close to him, his blue eyes seem to pierce me. He's smiling too, a bit crooked, but I find it incredibly endearing.
"Yes," I say as I look into his eyes, glance away, then return my gaze. "modern films are so formulaic, but these old movies were groundbreaking."
"Did you know that Merian C. Cooper, the director, is in one of the planes when they shoot down King Kong?"
"I did not! How fascinating," I did know, but I let him feel a sense of satisfaction.
We continue to chat and I inch my body closer to him. At one point he makes a joke and I laugh a little too loudly as I touch his bicep. He's hooked, I think to myself as he smiles at me once more. The lobby lights briefly dim three times, signaling the impending start of the movie.
