It was a quiet night and out of the blue, we decided to kill a few hours at the multi-plex nearby.
"Why not?" you say. "I'm in the mood for a little mental distraction."
I was in no mood to argue, having surfed through the channel guide 3 or 4 times to confirm that there was absolutely nothing on the TV.
You were strangely quiet on the ride over, but I didn't think a lot of it. You had put in a long day at work and I wasn't far behind you in that department. Once we got to the theatre, it didn't take long for us to pick something we could both handle and we splurged on some over-priced goodies and settled in to catch the last of the trailers before the main feature started.
The cinema we were in seemed pretty deserted, although not much of a surprise for the late show on a mid-week night. Even though we both missed the classic old movie houses, we definitely enjoyed the comfy seating, to say nothing of the armrests we can now fold out of the way.
We took advantage of the armrests and snuggled up with my arm around your shoulder and enjoyed the show. We took advantage of the relative darkness for a few nostalgia-laced smooches and we generally behaved like a couple of kids on a date.
Partway through the movie, I felt your hand slide onto my thigh and caress it. I smiled and snuggled you a little closer, but then your hand moved up...up....up....and I heard you whisper, "shhhhhh, honey...I wanna have a little fun."
