As the movie went on, Lilly felt the temperature had lowered quite a lot and she had begun to shiver. She finished her popcorns in ten minutes and this time she made a quick visit to the restroom before getting another popcorn knowing Gwen would have finished hers by now. On cue, Gwen came looking for her and screamed.

"My soulmate!" startling many people around her.

"You're carrying it this time," Lilly gave her both the popcorns to hold.

"Is this extra large?" Gwen asked looking at her hands.

"Extra large. What else are you going to offer?"

Turning around they saw it was a guy in the line who spoke as his friends looked at them. Not wanting to retaliate and create a scene, after all, first they had skipped classes and second, her parents were out of town.

"Where are you going? We haven't got our extras yet," the sleazy guy's friend asked them when they walked past them. Deep breath, Lilly reminded herself but someone else had a different idea. There were a punch and a thud sound making them stop and turn to see Ace holding the guy's collar.

"Did you say you needed something extra? Is it enough or you need more?" he dared the person and punched him square in his jaw. When the guy's friend stepped in, Cole did the same by pushing him away. The manager of the theater was around the corner came rushing in to see what was going on.

"What is going on?" the manager asked looking at the commotion that was caused.

"You should filter people, John before letting them in," Cole spoke to the manager. Did they know the person?

"Yes, sir. Sorry for the inconvenience," he apologized taking both the boys to a corner as they had a small chit-chat.

"The movie must have started," Lilly heard Ace speak, who stood right behind her. Turning around she searched for a change of expression on his face but found none.

"You know you guys can sit where we are sitting," Cole offered, "There are a lot of empty seats next to us."

"No, that's alright," Lilly replied but he shook his head.

"Oh come on," he said taking Gwen's hand. Gwen had a shocked expression on her face as he pulled her along with him.

"We are not going to eat you," Ace said leaning forwards next to her ear making her jump in surprise.

Cole wasn't joking when he spoke about the empty seats. She wondered why the seats they were sitting in was packed while here it was empty and spacious. Lilly found it rather strange. Going to sit, she ended up sitting between Ace and Gwen. Having missed a few minutes of the movie again, she tried understanding what was going. Feeling herself shiver due to the high air conditioning, she rubbed her hands against her arms before feeling someone's eyes on her.

"What?" she asked Ace turning to look at his pitch black eyes.

Was it the darkness or were his really that dark? Shrugging his shoulders, his eyes fell back on the screen. By this time Lilly had lost interest in the movie. Gwen was too into the movie to notice anything, therefore Lilly's eyes moved around the theater before settling in on the man next to her, watching him discreetly. It seemed that he noticed as this time he raised his eyebrow at her and like him, she shrugged her shoulders to see him narrow his eyes.

When the movie had finished, it looked like Gwen and Cole were the only ones who were interested in talking about the movie while the other two listened quietly following to the parking lot. Cole had proposed the idea for dinner, extending their time with them. As both the boys had come with their motorcycles, Gwen sat behind Cole and Lilly had to sit behind Ace. Lilly was thankful that he hadn't sped up as they rode on their way to the diner. Once they settled into a booth after picking what they wanted to eat, Cole asked,

"So Gwen you have any siblings?"

"I have an elder brother but he's studying abroad," she replied, hearing this a small frown settled between Cole's brows. Ace who was sitting next to him chuckled before covering it with a cough. Lilly wondered what that was all about.

"What about you, Lilly?"

"It is just me," she answered with a smile.

Now that the others were talking, Lilly realized Ace was actually handsome. Black hair that fell on his forehead which sometimes covered the side of his eyes. He was wearing his biker shoes with a simple shirt and jeans.

"You are staring at me," Ace said murmured so that only she could hear.

"I was only looking," Lilly cleared her throat awkwardly, her cheeks turning pink. After dinner, the boys dropped them back at Gwen's house and they thanked them.

"Thank you for the ride and the theater thing," Lilly thanked Ace after getting off the bike and handing him the helmet he had given her to put on during the ride.

"No problem, anytime," he replied nonchalantly. When she turned towards where Gwen stood, she heard Cole say,

"Gwen, not wanting to beat around the bush but I would like to take you on a date. Not right away but in the future?" he asked her.

"I don't think-" she began to be interrupted by Cole.

"Take all the time," Gwen unsure yet nodded her head, "Sweet, " exchanging numbers with Gwen, both Cole and Ace left. Gwen was too dazed to talk and therefore had decided to give her some space, not wanting to behave as the catalyst. Wanting to call Rose to tell they had reached home, she went to dial to see a message from an unknown number that read,

Good night sweet dreams Lilly.
