THE SKY HAD JUST TURNED DARK,
and the day had been successful so far. sodapop had showed up on time to pick you up for your first date for a night at the drive in. you sat patiently in darrys truck, he had lent it to sodapop for the night, as he went to get popcorn and cokes.

you sighed happily as you repositioned yourself so that you could get a good view of yourself in the car mirror. your face was lightly bronzed, your cheeks a cute shade of pink, and your lips a deep red. you gave yourself a smile, knowing that you looked good.

you met sodapop at his job, the DX gasoline station, when you went in for a bottle of coke. of course his good looks were one of the many reasons why you were so intrigued in him, but also because of his sense of humor and the comfort he radiated when you and him would have a conversation.

so when he asked you out last week, the only right answer was yes. and now here you were, sitting right in his car.

"hey y/n! i'm back with the cokes," soda calls from his side of the door. you lean over to open it and offer your hand to take the popcorn bucket.

"thanks sodapop! i really can't watch a movie with out popcorn," you say, taking a handful into your mouth.

soda laughs as he scoot into the truck, closing the door with a soft thud. "or without a bottle of pop," he adds handing you your bottle. you smile up at him.
soon enough the movie starts and you turn quite.

your eyes grew heavy half way through the movie. who knew that the movie showing that night would be an old war romance film that you've already seen. you didn't tell soda anything though, you just kept quite and sipped the last of your coke.

with the lack of interest for the pictures on the screen your eyes wonder over to soda-pop. you stare up at him for a few seconds as you take in his unbelievable beauty.

his jaw line was sharp and defined as he took a few sips from his bottle of pop. his hands gripped the bottle tightly as he held it against his lips. his eyes, even though the car is dark, seemed to shine as they watched the screen.

you let out a breath as you watched, genuinely amazed at how pretty he was.

"are you done looking at me now y/n?" soda questions with a chuckle. your heart speeds up as he turns to face you, your cheeks already up in flames from the embarrassment of getting caught looking at him.

"oh- um... i-" you choke out.

"i'm just messing with you y/n," soda laughs wrapping his arm around your seat.

you couldn't help but laugh along.

the lights in your living room light up your front porch as soda pulls to the curb in front of your house and he kills the engine.

"i had a great time tonight soda," you say gathering your purse from the dash.

"me too y/n. here let me get the door for you."

soda pulls you up out of the car and walks you to your front door. you smile up at him as you both stand there.

"well good night" you say turning for your door.

"wait y/n! when can i see you again?"

you couldn't help but grin, " how about tomorrow soda pop? i can walk over tomorrow after school."

soda smiles up at you.

"sounds like a plan y/n".
