Chapter 24:

----Maria's Point of View----

"Pop pop pop" I hear the popcorn pop from the kitchen.

I pop the movie "The Heat" in the DVD player.

I walk over to the kitchen.

"Hey." I say.

"Hey, um, do you want juice or beer or something?" Katy ask while she pours the popcorn into a bowl.

"Hmm I'll have some beer, I will get it, what do you want?" I ask as I walk to the fridge.

Katy sighs and says, "Maybe a bottle of wine."

"Haha a whole bottle." I say as I grab my bottle of beer out of the four pack in the fridge.

I close the fridge and look at Katy.

"Yeah, I just want a tasteful wine." She says.

"Oh, okay." I smile.

Katy goes to the wine cabinet and gets a bottle of her fancy wine.

I walk back to the living room and sit on the couch.

"Do you want a blanket?" Katy's asks from the hallway.

"Yes, thank you." I say

Katy walks in with a blanket.

She sits down by the left side of the couch, she places the popcorn on the arm of the couch while she spread the blanket out on the both of us.

I move closer to her and lean my head against her shoulder.

Katy wraps her right arm around me.

"What movie are we watching?" She asks.

"The Heat, with Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy." I answer.

"Oh I wanted to see this." She says.

"Same." I say as I press play with the DVD remote.

The movie begins, I take a sip of my beer.

"Popcorn?" Katy asks.

"Oh yes." I say.

I take a hand full of popcorn.

Katy then places the popcorn between us so we both can reach it.

I look at her for a second.

She is taking a big gulp of the bottle of wine.

I then look back at the TV and begin to enjoy the movie.

About 20 minutes into the movie Katy's phone buzzes.

I see it light up on her knee.

Its a text from a number who isn't saved in her contacts.

Katy checks it, I look away I didn't want to be spying.

Throughout the movie Katy is texing away, I didn't mind it because I know that she is a busy woman.

When the movie was over I started to feel a bit sleepy.

"Hey Miss. Texty, its kinda late how about we head to bed." I say as I slide my hand across her upper thigh.

Katy looks at me, "hmm Yeah, Its pretty late." She says while taking the last sip of her bottle of wine.

We both get up and leave the mess of the bowl of popcorn, blanket, and our drinks.

We head to the bedroom.
