Ashley waited by the entrance to the cinema, trying but failing not to fidget. He still could not help pinching himself that Josh wanted to be with him. He had woken up a couple of times scared because he dreamt that Josh had made a bet with his rugby friends to fuck Ashley then dump him. He knew he was being irrational because Josh had not yet given him any cause to doubt him, however he could not help himself.
He looked at his watch again to see what time it was and when Josh was getting there. He had gotten to the cinema in the city centre a few minutes earlier than they planned. Josh had wanted to pick him up from his house but Ashley had disagreed, calling it pointless since Josh was coming from the city centre anyway. As he looked up, he saw Josh's familiar, sexy figure walking towards him. The smile on Josh's face lit a fire in Ashley's belly.
'Hey, Ash.' Josh smiled as he stopped directly in front of Ashley then bent to place a quick kiss on his lips. Ashley's lips parted in shock and pleasure and Josh could not help but kiss him again, this time a lingering one. 'I hope you didn't need to wait too long. I came as fast as I could.'
Ashley shook his head as they began walking into the cinema. 'Not really. Anyway, I've got the tickets. Didn't know what it was you wanted exactly, so I didn't get any popcorn or sweets.'
'That's fine. I wanted to get here early enough to get the tickets anyway. I wish you hadn't got them.' Josh grumbled, making Ashley laugh.
'I'm not your 'girl', Josh. You don't have to pay for everything all the time. I wanted to get the tickets.'
'You're not my girl, yes. But you're my man. And I'm trying to court you, okay?' Josh muttered then started walking faster to get some popcorn for them, leaving Ashley to stare agape at Josh's rapidly receding red face.
Did Josh just claim Ashley? Were they officially in a relationship? Had Josh just BLUSHED!? Ashley hurried after him. 'Hey, you can't drop that and just scurry off. Your man? Are you saying...do you mean...'
'Yes. Yeah, I do. I know it seems fast as fuck but, I don't see the point in dicking around. You're mine and I'm yours, okay?' Josh said, pinning Ashley with a stern face.
Ashley bit back a smile, 'Sure. We're together.'
Josh looked visibly relieved. He pulled Ashley closer to him and dropped a kiss on his forehead. 'Well...great. Okay, sweet or salty popcorn?'

Deadpool was a trip from the moment they began watching. Ashley could not believe how funny it was! As he laughed and chewed away, he almost forgot about his boyfriend (BOYFRIEND!) next to him. That is, until Josh started playing with his right ear. Ashley gasped silently, his mind suddenly switching from sexy Ryan Reynold on the screen to the even sexier Josh trailing a finger lightly up and down his ear.
'Josh...' Ashley whispered with a groan but was shushed by the devil-incarnate with a smirk.
'Hush! People are trying to watch a movie here.' Was the gleeful retort.
Ashley tried his hardest not to squirm as Josh moved from his ear to the back of his sensitive neck - his finger constantly trailing from side to side, up and down. He'd stop trailing and just leave his hands there, then suddenly start playing with the back of Ashley's hair. Ashley could barely concentrate on the movie. He missed the jokes. He missed the sarcastic comments. He could hardly see the amazing fighting scenes. His whole being was concentrated on Josh's hand and fingers.
Then suddenly, Josh removed his hand and Ashley did not know whether to be disappointed or relieved... till Josh placed it on Ashley's right thigh.
'Don't you even dare!' Ashley hissed quietly.
Josh shot him an innocent look, 'dare what? So, I can't rest my aching hand on your thigh? Get your depraved mind out of the gutter, Ash.'
Ashley mock-scowled at Josh as he left his hand there. Not moving, not stroking. Just limply on his thigh. Ashley's breathing calmed and he turned to the screen to catch the rest of it...then Josh began trailing again. Fingers going each and everywhere on Ashley's thigh.
