Popcorn and a soda

"Sweetheart what makes you so sad? Tell me what you're thinking about."

She thought about what Alex has been telling her, he wanted honesty in their relationship . She looked up at him with her Ocean blue eyes and told him how she felt not holding back how heavy her hart felt from just thinking about not being able to see the people she loved .

"Alex I was just thinking about my friends and family . I never ask you if they could come visit me here. Or if I could go back and visit them."

Alex didn't think his little Pet would get home sick so soon, it surprised him a little.

"Sweetheart I guess that's something we need to talk about." As far as you going to visit them ,you can ,with me, but not by your self."

"What if your busy,can I go with guards ?"

"Sweetheart I feel it would be to dangerous for you to travel with out me . Even if I send every guard in the Castle with you ,I still think it's to dangerous. But your friends and family are always welcome to come here and visit."

"Oh! Thank you Alex! She gushed excitedly babbling on about her best friend. "l'm going to text Karmen today maybe she can come before her summer break ends."

She was talking so quickly Alex had a hard time following what she was saying. But one thing was certain he was sure that she was happy and that's the only thing he was concerned about.

" Is she the girl that was with you the day I picked you up?"

"Yes, she is my best friend. I grew up with her and her brother Ethan. "

"Sweetheart you don't need to ask me if your friends and family can come here, this is your home now ." Alex explained,hoping she didn't feel like a guest and he damm sure hoped they would soon be sharing more then just meals together.

Maybe a nice romantic dinner will bring them closer together. Alex thought to himself.

"Now have you thought about what I ask this afternoon? Do you want to go out to a restaurant this weekend or would you like to try camping?" He ask, to remind her thinking perhaps she had forgotten about him asking already.

"I haven't thought about it yet but...maybe try camping."

" Camping it is then."

Alex reached over dragging her chair closer to him. Running his hand over the top of her's. He felt a little strange doing that, but for some reason he couldn't stop himself from touching her beautiful soft skin.

"Sweetheart would you like to watch a movie tonight? I have a theater room here in the castle." He ask, to distract her from his roaming hand that was not holding onto her's savoring the warmth of her skin.

"That sounds cool, what kind of movie are we going to watch?"she ask excitedly

"I will let you decide, we can watch anything that is playing in the theater in the city. Come sweetheart let's go see what's showing right now."

Alex stands up and reaches his hand out for Lexi to take, but it didn't take long for him to snake his arm around her waist.

Just to see what his little Pet would do ,he didn't try to distract her with small talk this time.

As they stepped out of the dining room, to his surprise his little Pet didn't try to flee . She seemed to be calm and relaxed . They walked through the grand ballroom and down a long hallway. Alex stopped in front of a pair of dark brown double doors.

When he opened the doors Lexi's eyes went wide . It was like a real movie theater . It even had a real concession stand, with popcorn, hotdogs, candy and her favorite soda.

It had movie posters for the movies showing in each theater room . It had five different rooms with velvet ropes forming lines . Just like the theater in the city. Alex tugged on her waist a little to direct her to the movie posters.

"Let's pick out a movie sweetheart .You pick one tonight and I will pick one later "he suggested

Alex rubbed her lower back,noticing his little Pet was becoming more relaxed when he caressed her lower back.

He hugged her tighter and pulled her closer. She didn't lean into him yet but she didn't pull away either. He slipped his hand lower on her hip and rubbed small circles with his thumb, he watched his little pet from the corner of his eye .

He wanted to make sure she wasn't becoming uncomfortable by his touch. This was his little Pet's first night here,he didn't want to seem to forward.

They stood in front of the movie posters and he walked behind her, leaning in closer he wrap his arms around her waist . He watched closely as she was reading the posters . She looked like she was having a hard time deciding which movie to choose .

Then she tilted her head back to look at his face. Her head was right next to his cheek and her beautiful mouth was only inches away from his. Alex tilted his head slightly forward bringing their lips even closer together.

"Are you having a hard time deciding on a movie?"he ask,not to distract her this time but to distract himself from spinning her around and kissing her luscious full lips.

" No not really, I was just wondering if I could have some popcorn and a soda ."

"Sure you can, you can't watch a movie with out popcorn." Alex smiled , he Noticed how happy his little Pet looked just to have popcorn and more soda.

Five different movie posters where hanging on the wall. A horror movie, a western, a action movie, a love story and a mystery movie. Alex watched as her sparkling blue eyes wondered around reading the posters.

They darted up and down reading the titles and who the actors are in each movie. Then she pointed to the horror movie posters.

"Uh.. Alex I think this one is the one I want to watch "

Alex was a little surprised,he thought his little Pet would pick the girly love story .

"Well, come on sweetheart let's get your popcorn."he said, slipped his hand around her waist and guiding her over to the concession stand.

They stood in front of the concession stand and a lady stood behind the counter with a big smile on her face offering her assistance. "What can I get you Princess Alexis?"

Lexi's eyes wondered around the glass cases,she bit on her bottom lip a

little ,before she decided what to tell the lady. "I want a soda, popcorn and a box of those chocolate candies."

Alex was standing behind her with his arms around her waist , she glanced up at him, he had a big smile on his handsome face. Her heart flutter slightly ,she wanted to reach up to touch his smooth skin. But instead she ask "Are you going to get anything?"
