Chapter 2: Bon Jovi, A Movie, And A Special Goodnight



  I heard a knock on my door. I ran over to the door and looked out the peep hole. It was Richie. I opened the door.
"Hey Rich,"
"Hey babe, listen the guys are outside waiting, you ready?"
"Yeah, just let me get my purse," I said as I walked over to my bed where the purse was sitting. I grabbed the purse and walked out the door, shutting it behind me.
"You look great by the way," he said to me with a smile as we walked.
"Thanks, you too," I said as I blushed and smiled.
There was silence between the two of us as we walked. When we finally exited the building Jon, David, and Tico were sitting there waiting.
"You two ready?" Jon asked with a smile.
"Yeah," Richie and I said at the same time.

  Me and Richie looked at each other and smiled. None of us said a word pretty much the whole time. We skipped the refreshments, got out tickets, and took as seat. The lights went off as we walked in the door. We took a seat in the fifth row. I was the first to sit down. Richie sat beside me, Jon beside Richie, David beside Jon, and Tico beside David.
"So what movie is this again?" I asked Richie.
"Nightmare On Elm Street."
"oh....,"
"You're not afraid are you?" he asked with a smile as he nudged me with his arm.
"I don't know... maybe a little,"
"Do you want to go see a different movie?"
"no, I have just heard scary storied about this movie from my friends is all..."
"you sure?"
"yes,"
"well if you change your mind, tell me, okay?"
"Okay,"

  The movie wasn't that bad... Okay maybe one part was scary because I hid my face in Richie's shoulder... Okay, a lot scary!... When the movie was over and the lights turned on, I noticed my hand was close to Richie's. I quickly moved it away and he looked at me.
"So, what do you think?" he asked.
"It wasn't as bad as I thought," I lied.
"Yeah, I've seen scarier myself,"
"you're crazy, you know that Richie?" I said with a smile.
"Yep, are you ready to go?"
"Yeah, I gotta get in bed early again tonight because school again tomorrow,"
"Alright let's go," Richie said as he stood up.

 I stood up and Jon, Tico, and David stood up also. We walked all the way to my place without saving a word. Again. But by the time we got to my place, it was just me and Richie because the rest of the guys went home. When we finally reached my door we stoof there in silence for a minute before either of us said anything.
"Are you sure the movie wasn't to scary, because you hid your face in my shoulder during one part,"
I blushed.
"Uh, yeah, um, sorry?" I said.
"Don't be, I kinda enjoyed it actually,"
I smiled and looked at the floor as I blushed agian.
"No, really,"
I looked at him and said, "what do you mean?"
He took a couple steps closer to me. I backed away.
"what is it?" he asked.
"Richie, I can't,"
"Why not?," he asked as he took a couple steps closer again.
"because I just can't, I respect you to much," I said as I backed up against the wall.
He walked closer, trapping me against the wall. He put his arms up on the wall. I closed my eyes wishing I didn't back up against it, but it was to late...
"please, open your eyes Jess,"
I opened my eyes and said, "what are you going to do? kiss me?!"
"maybe,"
I rolled my eyes.
"What?"
"you have only known me for about two days Richie!"
"I know,"
"well? Plus I'm way younger than you!"
"how do you know?,"
"I'm not stupid! You're 45!"
"I don't look old or anything though, do I?"
"no,"
"then what is the problem?"
"It's complicated," I said with my eyes shut, hoping he would back away and apologize.
"will you stay still for just a minute? Just a minute,"
"But-."
"Shhhh," he said smoothly.
I kept my eyes shut. I was afraid... kinda. I felt his soft warm lips touch my cheek. Then he stopped. Then he came in for another kiss. I couldn't stand it anymore. I kissed him... Even though I knew I shouldn't have, I did it anyway. The kissed lasted for what felt like forever. Then we stopped. I slowly opened my eyes, afraid to open them. He put his forehead against mine.
"I'm sorry Jess,"
"you just got lucky your touch, smell, looks and voice all worked," I said with a smile.
"so you kissed me because of all that?"
"no, not really," I said with a slight giggle and smile.
He smiled and backed away.
"I'm really sorry," he said again.
I didn't say anything, I just looked at him.
"I just couldn't stand it any longer Jessika!"
I smiled.
"I got to go Jess..."
"Why?"
"I just, I gotta go home,"
"okay, see you Friday? After school?"
"yeah, I'll call a pickup service so we won't have to walk that far though,"
I smiled and said "okay."
There was silence for a few seconds....
"Goodnight," he said as he started to walk away.
He walked a couple of feet away before I ran after him. Once I reached him I kissed him again. He fell back against the wall and I stopped.
"Goodnight," I said with a smile as I ran into my room and closed the door behind me.
I looked through the 'peep hole' to watch him leave. He stayed up against the wall with a stunned look on his face for a minute or so, then he smiled and walked away. Once he was gone I sighed and slid down the door and just sat there.
"O-M-G!," I said with a huge smile on my face.
