On their one-year anniversary, Levi Wright and Athena Davis went to see a movie, an animation that Athena had wanted to see for a long time. It was healing to the soul, featuring a piano interlude that made listeners feel like they were floating on clouds.
Athena felt almost intoxicated by the music, so she asked the question that had been troubling her for a while.
"Levi."
"Hmm."
Levi picked up the Coke next to him and took a sip.
Since they were in the movie theater, Athena's voice was very soft, "When will we sleep together?"
Coke rushed into his nose as Levi choked on it and turned his head to cough vigorously.
They had been dating for a year, and their most intimate exchanges were nothing beyond kissing. Athena had been at Gregner for over a year and was now a little surfing expert, understanding a lot more.
She pulled a tissue from her bag and wiped the spilled Coke off Levi's hand, "Don't you want to—"
The person in front turned around.
