As soon as I walked into the apartment, I crashed onto the couch.

"Remind me to disinfect the couch later."
I mumbled, making Josh chuckle

"Rough day?"

I just nodded

"I want sleep."

"Aw I planned a movie night thing. There's a movie on Netflix that looked good."
Josh smiled

I looked at him
"Which one?"

"Visions."

"Isn't that-"

"Yes, it's a horror movie."
Josh laughed
"But my room is down the hall, so no creatures of the night will get you while you try to sleep."

I couldn't help but giggle.
"Pop the popcorn while I get changed?"

He nodded eagerly and smiled, darting over to the kitchen immediately.

I came back into the living room with
my pajamas on and a blanket over me.
"Ready?"
I questioned as I stared at the popcorn.

He moved the bowl to the arm furthest from me.
"Yes."

I smiled and walked over to the couch, plopping down wherever ever was comfortable. I think this movie night will make me less tense, not so worried about..well everything.

Ten minutes before the movie was due to end, after many jump scares. I found myself in Josh's arms, I knew we were probably moving too fast, but I felt safe.

"Ty?"
I heard Josh question me.

"Yeah?"
I asked, earning a giggle as a reply.
"What?"

That's when it happened. The thing I wanted to avoid, had happened.
And I couldn't stop it, even if I wanted to.
