Honeysuckles and Lavender

A big bowl of popcorn was in my lap as I continued my movie marathon. I had a soft spot for action-adventure movies, so I sat there in front of my laptop watching the entire Fast and the Furious film franchise. It was a guilty pleasure of mine that I only watched when I wanted to relax during my day off. I didn’t know a thing about cars, so it was weird that I liked these movies so much.


Jessica was across the room from me, watching her own guilty pleasure movies. Specifically, gory horror. I think she’s watching Final Destination. I don’t know how she could stomach those movies but to each their own. I held the bowl out for her to take a handful of popcorn. 


We could never agree on what to watch, so we would just watch our own movies next to each other. We’ve done this since we were teenagers. It was so great that we could enjoy each other’s company without forcing a conversation.
