High School: Way to Forever

She ran towards his car and knocked on his window

"You are late." Alex said as Anna sat in the car.

"You can't blame me. Its not easy to sneak out of your home."

"Have you ever done this before?" Hearing this, Anna's hand stopped for a while.

"Yeah I did it once, and it didn't happen to be a good ending." replied Anna, lowering her head.

"Lets go."

"Yesss!!"

On their way, they listened many songs. Anna also noticed that Alex's unique features were even more visible in moon light. It looked like Moon is specially giving light to increase the glow of Alex's face.

"What are you finding on my face?" Alex caught her. He knew she was staring at him. At first he thought of letting her. But the way she looked at him, made him loose control on driving.

Embarrassed of getting caught, "Oh.. Nothing. I was seeing moon behind you."

"Really?"

"Yes!" Alex loved to tease her. Because of embarrassment, her ears becomes red.

.....

They reached the cinema hall just before 5 minutes the starting of the movie.

Anna was shouting on Alex, for driving so slow.

"In future, I will drive. You can't. Walk fast!!! We will be late. Fast and Fast!!" Anna was running instead of walking because she didn't wanted to miss the starting.

"Anna, slowly. You will fall and hurt yourself." Alex warned.

But Anna never listen to anyone and as Alex had expected, she fell on the ground.

"Ahh!!"

Alex came running towards her, he sat on his knees and asked, "Does it hurts?"

But Anna gave a shocking reply, "You idiot. Don't stop. Run!! We can't miss the starting." Saying this Anna stood up and again started running.

In her excitement, she actually forgot that her jean was ripped and cut.

Alex sighed seeing her childish behaviour this. If he knew that she will behave like this, he would have never said yes for this wish.

He also walked fast to cover the distance between Anna and him and to avoid her falling.

They reached the hall and took their tickets and walked in.

"See, we reached before. Movie isn't even started."

"But I can't take any type of risk. Its after so long. Oh.... Which movie you selected?" asked Anna. This slipped from her mind.

"The Final Truth!"

"Hmm, but how does you know I like suspense stories?" Anna curiously asked.

"Well, maybe a guess? Oh movie is going ti begin. Focus Now!"

"Yessssss!! Bring my popcorns and coke."

"Yes madam." said Alex and went to bring her order.

...

When he cane outside, he saw a message.

Unknown- Call me as soon as possible. Its something urgent. Hurry up!

Alex had a change in emotion but soon, it disappeared.

He took the order and went to his seat.

"Here are your things. Take it."

Anna just kept it without even shifting her eyes from the screen.

Her eyes were focused to next extend.

While Anna was focused on the screen, Alex's eyes were there on her face.

Her face showed more than 10 reactions in less than 5 minutes. Sometimes surprise, excited, frown...

"Such a drama and expression queen." Alex whispered to himself.

But next came a kissing scene. Anna closed her eyes and covered them with her hands.

"What happened, something went into your eyes?" Alex asked worriedly

"No..no.. Its just scene."

"What is bad in this? You can see it is normal kissing scene."

Anna was silent.

The truth was that, she was shy to watch such scene in front of Alex. He is her friend but such scene with him is quite awkward for her.

"When it will pass i will open my eyes." said Anna.

Alex thought of teasing her a little, he came closer to her face when her eyes were closed.

"Open your EYES!" Alex whispered coming close to her ear. Anna immediately opened her eyes and Alex's face so close. his nose touching right cheek.

"You.." Anna was speechless.

He moved back to his normal position and behaved as if he didn't did anything right now. But this all caused increase in Anna's heartbeat.

'Phew, my poor heart.' Anna thought. Only she knew what she was suffering from.

Till that time, kissing scene was finished and movie came back to real track. Anna again focused on the film and Alex on Anna.

After the movie was finished, it was 1:30 A.M.

"Alex, lets take a walk." Anna suggested.
