Chapter 23

“Uuuuungh fuuuuuck,” I whimpered as I came hard on my fingers.

I shuddered through my orgasm, then collapsed on my bed with my arm trapped under my body. My eyes felt so heavy, and I blinked slowly, looking up at my TV before nodding off the last image I saw was a skeleton Captain Jack Sparrow fighting Captain Barbosa.

Several hours later I woke up to a text alert from Jon.

Jon: “Do you still want me to pick you up tonight?”

Me: “Yes, please!

Jon: “Awesome! I will pick you up at 7. Sound good?”

Me: “Sounds great! I can’t wait. I am so excited for this movie.”

Jon: “Me too! See you at 7!”

I set my phone down and lay in bed a bit longer before forcing myself to get up and get ready. I checked the time and saw I had just over an hour to get ready. I showered, dressed, and did my makeup, and shortly after I was done my phone rang. It was Jon was calling me to let me know he was outside.

I ran downstairs excited for our date. It was a warm summer night and I decided to actually wear one of the sundresses that had been just sitting in my closet for way too long. When I got to his car, he was standing beside it waiting for me. Jon was wearing a plain black t-shirt and blue jeans, his scraggly beard had been shaved into a scraggly goatee.

He gave me a hug and told me I looked great. I gave him a quick peck on the cheek, and we got into his car. We made small talk on our way to the theater, mainly about work, and the first pirate’s film.

When we arrived at the AMC there was a huge crowd, and I was grateful Jon got our tickets ahead of time. As we walked up Jon reached over and took my hand. I smiled at him and we held hands as we entered the theater. We had plenty of time before the movie started and got in line for the concessions stand.

The line moved quickly, and we got out snacks, popcorn, some nachos, and a hotdog for each of us, as well as some drinks. We took our bounty and headed into the theater. It wasn’t crowded yet and we were able to get seats in the back center of the theater. We sat and talked a bit and played the trivia games that were played before the trailers started while people gradually found their way into the theater.

The theater did not fill up as much as we expected it to and only one other couple who moved to the far corner on our left, and a guy by himself who was in the opposite corner had sat near us. The rest of the theater’s occupants were 3 rows below us and mainly grouped in the center rows, we had practically the entire back of the theater to ourselves.
