Re: Movie night

Enid's POV

I get Tristan's message and my eyes well with tears. I'm not sure if it's emotion or tiredness that is  making me cry.

I wipe my eyes but some more tears spring to my eyes and stream down my face. I type out a message that says I would love to meet him Friday afternoon after class to watch a movie. His choice

I feel exhausted. Leanne volunteers to drive me back to the dorm and I protest but she insists. After we arrive back she guides me upstairs to my bedroom.

I lay on my bed and close my eyes

Re: Movie night

Leanne's POV

I see Enid stumble as she walks down the corridor. Tears are streaming down her face and she looks exhausted.

'Let me drive you back to the dorm' I said.

'Mo I'm fine!' Enid said to me. She's delirious and I know if I let her drive she'll kill herself against a lamppost or something.

I guide her to her car and put her into the passenger seat. I get into the drivers seat and take her the one mile back to the dorm we both live in.

I take her upstairs to her room. Her roommate isn't around so I guide her to her bed and take off her shoes. She closes her eyes and presumably falls asleep immediately. I check her alarm is switched on for the next morning and leave her to it

Re: Movie night

Jarrod finally left his office to give me a chance to compose myself. After about a min I stood up and walked out of his office. I wondered how I looked to the rest of the people in the office. I really didn't feel like them staring at me after I just humiliated myself by completely breaking down at work albeit lovingly comforted by my fiance in his locked, soundproof office.

As I walk past Jarrod he discretely tries to fix my hair with his hands. I gave him a half smile. I did appreciate him trying to make my predicament less noticeable, but I thought his loving gesture would just draw more attention to me. He then quietly asks if I'd like to take the rest of the day off as its almost the end of the work day anyways. I tell him that I'd rather not have any special attention now that I work with him and that I'd like him to treat me the same as he treats everyone else who works with him. With that I give him another smile and return to my desk.

A little while later as I was finishing up some work related tasks I heard my phone vibrate. I knew immediately it was my sister. I read the text and to my surprise my sister said I was more than welcome to pay her a visit. She even left me her new address. I decided not to make any rushed decisions but planned on calling Anna when I got home to cancel our plans for the following weekend and reschedule. Although disappointed, I knew this was something I had to do for my piece of mind.

Re: Movie night

Enid's POV

I was awoken from my very deep slumber by my alarm clock blaring. My first feelings as I got up were being very thirsty and very hungry. How long had I slept

I got up and blinked the sleep out of my eyes. I took a sip from a bottle of Coke that was by my bedside. The rush of sugar and bubbles in the drink caused tears to fill my eyes. I replaced the cap and placed the bottle on my bedside table as the tears in my eyes gently ran down both my cheeks

It was 7 am and my first class was at 9:30. Luckily for me I had done the homework for it in my marathon night session so all that was left was to change out of my clothes I had been wearing for over 52 hours straight and get a shower

After I had done this I got dressed into a new fresh outfit of a knee length dress with red flowers, black tights and a red cardigan to keep me warm. And black shoes for my feet.

I gathered up my things and went to the commissary for my breakfast tying my hair into a ponytail on the way. While I was there I met Leanne

'Thank you' I said as tears sprang to my eyes again. 'For bringing me home'

'Your welcome' she said. I was grateful for the fact she didn't crow or tell me off. After I had grabbed some breakfast I sent Tristan a text saying I was still on for our movie night but I would need to go to bed early as I had burned the candle at both ends by neglecting my homework and doing it in the middle of the night

Re: Movie night

Kate's POV

'Open it up if you like' Samantha said giving me the key. I opened the large case in her bedroom and gazed at her collection of 36 Transformers. 29 were on cards and the other seven were in boxes. Her giftsets were in a special smaller wooden box suspended from the floor

Although the collection was small, it was still impressive to see. I was scared of taking any of the carded robots off their pegs in case I damaged them

'What made you start collecting in the first place?'

'I just liked the look of the boxes' Samantha confessed. 'The coloured inset of the large robot and the stripe at the bottom with the ID number just made me fall in love with them.'

She went on to explain that she would have liked to have loose robots to display but didn't have the space or the money.

'And anyway' she continued. 'If I had another set, someone else couldn't have it so I decided to not be greedy and just have the boxed sets only'

My eyes suddenly filled with tears and a sob escaped from my throat

'Kate are you okay?' Samantha said concerned. I nodded as my tears streamed down my face

'I just realised, I don't have a hobby or a toy collection of my own. Rachel has her trains, Sophie has her vlogs, you've got this' I sobbed. 'I don't have anything'

Samantha's eyes were full of tears.

'Give me your phone' she said gently. I did so and she carefully took several pictures of her collection and handed it back to me.

'You can share it with me' she said her tears now escaping from her eyes and running down her cheeks. We gave each other a hug

'Thank you' I said as a fresh pair of tears fell from my eyes. We both wiped our cheeks with a tissue and composed ourselves as Samantha's brother poked his head round the door and asked if we were ready for Ten Pin bowling

Re: Movie night

Liz's POV

I was just taking out my rubbish when I saw a car drive up and park. Not wanting the driver to get into trouble for parking in the wrong place, I went over to the car

'You'll need to park in those spaces over there' I said politely to the new arrival. 'One of the guys who lives in my block is a stickler for that kind of thing'

The woman nodded and re-parked then asked if Sadie lived here. I guessed this must be Camilla

'Hi Sadie's sister' I greeted. 'She's at work at Ernie's juice bar, about half a mile away. You can't miss it. I recommend you walk and leave your car here, the space might not be there when you get back'

Camilla nodded and got out of her car and started to walk towards the juice bar. She didn't ask me for directions so I guessed she must have seen it when she came in.

Re: Movie night

Sadie's POV

'There you go' I said to the young couple by the window as I put their food down in front of them. 'Enjoy'

'Thanks Sadie' the girl said and they tucked into their meal. My eyes moved over the floor wondering who was next to be served

'Everyone's okay so far' Helen said to me. It had been a usual Saturday that is to say busy, but it was luckily manageable

I went over to the counter and saw we were short of Triple Chocolate Muffins, so I went to top them up. As I came back I saw Camilla enter the store. Natalie saw her at the door and sat her down at a table.

'Just in time!' a middle aged man said. 'Can I have a chocolate muffin please'

'Of course you can' I said pleasantly. I sold him his muffin and saw two tables had left. Helen went to take Camilla's order and I cleared the two tables

'One cheese and egg toastie on white please Pav' Helen told the chef as she put the ticket on. She came over to me.

'Your sister asked me if you'd meet her in the square when you clock off' she informed me. 'She seems really nice by the way' She left the kitchen to continue serving and I cleared my tray.

By this time Camilla's toastie was ready so I took it out to her.

'I should be free in about twenty minutes' I said agreeing to meet her on the square

Re: Movie night

Tristan's POV:

I was doing my everyday routine, morning school, noon gym, afternoon practice and homework. On my way home from the gym Robyn catches up with me and tells me Enid's rhythm of life increased a lot since she started dating me and she is very tired trying to keep up with college and dating me. I told her I already had something in mind for that, and not to worry. As soon as I get home I text Enid: "Remember to bring something extra comfortable, don't forget the relaxing massage that is waiting for you, also, I hope you like Avenger's End Game, we're watching it. Love you, see you soon".

I make a stop to get some essential oils for the massage, then arrive home to set up movie and tv ready for the movie, as well as the oils for the massage and the blanket. I wait for Enid to arrive, I even have the popcorn and snacks ready.

Re: Movie night

Enid's POV

When Tristan sent me his text message I was terribly excited. A massage sounded lovely and (strange as it might seem) I had never seen Avengers Endgame in the cinema despite being an MCU fan.

After my last class I quickly ran back to my dorm for a nice cushion to sit on and drove to where Tristan was staying

Re: Movie night

On Friday, I take Camilla to the address provided by Sadie, I parked and a girl told us to park in a different spot, then seems to, expecting Camilla, greet her as Sadie's sister, then told us where she worked. I take Camilla there and remain standing a good 30 feet from her table. I see she ordered and Sadie eventually approached, they seem to agree on something.

As soon as Sadie leaves, I go to Camilla and ask her what's up. She tells me they are meeting on the square.
