She bought the ticket and walked inside the theater heading to the concession stand to get some popcorn and a drink. The popcorn smelled so good, bringing back old memories of this same theater where she watched movies as a little girl. She was so glad that someone had decided to renovate and reopen it. She headed to the balcony, that had always been her favorite place to sit to watch the show. Going up the steps, she hoped she hadn't missed the coming attractions.
The busted air conditioner at home gave her a good excuse to get out of the house.
He saw her go inside and thought of calling out to her. Deciding to surprise her, he bought his ticket and went inside. He grabbed something to drink and her favorite strawberry licorice, then headed to the balcony recalling that she had mentioned she liked watching movies up there best.

She saw him sit down but pretended to not notice. She thought he might prefer it that way, let him make the first move. He glanced at her and she seemed intent on the screen. He slipped his hand onto her leg, letting it rest on her thigh. She smiled at him and put her hand on his thigh, loving the feel of the legs that had caught her attention from the first time she had ever saw him. He leaned over and whispered into her ear, "what brings you here?"
She replied, "The air conditioner!"
