Once we finished up at the restaurant Neil drove me back to his house

He opened my door for me again and extended his hand for me to take. This'll never get old.

He opened his door and flicked on the light, looking around the room for a second before moving aside and letting me step in

"Ah sorry, just checking to see how embarrassed I need to be. I did clean up a bit yesterday so it'll work." He says walking away, I follow him because to be honest... I have no idea what I'm supposed to do now.

He takes off his jacket and throws it onto his bed, I'm standing in the doorway like a creep

"Um.." I say hesitantly
he turns around and smiles at me, unrolling his button downs sleeves

"Yeah, sorry, I'm just gonna change really quick then we can watch it.. oh um there's popcorn in the cabinet above the microwave and the kitchen is just to the left.." he says sitting down on his bed

"Ah okay.. thank you.. would you rather have me keep my shoes on or.. would you mind..??"

"No y/n you have to keep them on" he said sarcastically, laughing slightly as he untied his shoes

I smiled and slipped off my flats, walking towards the front door and setting them down. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a little room to the right, kind of in the corner of the living room, an office of a sort. The light was on and the door was cracked open..

I started walking towards it slowly.. I caught a glimpse of a keyboard from the little opening

"Y/n?" Neil said from behind me
I quickly turned around. He was already changed into a sweater and some sweatpants. That was fast.

"I'm gonna make some popcorn, did you want some?" He stuck his arm into the room and turned off the light then shut the door.

Okay

"Um.. yeah. If you would?" I smiled at him and walked over to the couch, setting my bag on a little side table

"Yeah, don't worry about it" he smiled at me and walked into the kitchen. I stayed in the living room and sat down, checking my phone

Alarm for 9:00 AM. 13 hours and 27 minutes left

Right I have work tomorrow. I wanna enjoy this time though.

I walked into the kitchen to which Neil closed the microwave door and pushed a few buttons before pushing start

"So.. how long is this movie?" I said crossing my arms and resting against his counter like he always does at work, watching him as he reached up and pulled out two medium sized popcorn bowls

"Oh um.. actually it's kinda of long. I probably should have told you that um.. it's like two and a half hours long.."

I finally looked back at him "hm? Oh no that's fine. I don't mind."

"Are you on the schedule for tomorrow?" He said crossing his arms to and standing next to me and leaning against the counter, looking down at me

"Oh yeah but I'm in for opening so I have to be there at 10. Honestly I go to sleep really late so ill manage.." my voice trailed of as I spun my rings around on my finger

'i wish I hadn't worn this dress. It's not the most comfy thing but it's so cute. I'll manage'

We kind of just stood there for a second

"Y/n I wanted t-" the microwave beeped rapidly, Neil rolled up his sweaters sleeves and pulled the popcorn out, pouring it into the bowls and handing me one
