<span style="color: #BF00BF">Hearing his reply, she felt her heart relax, knowing he wasn't going to randomly pop out of thin air and startle her. Moving toward his voice, she peeked into the kitchen, watching his movements as he looked at her over his shoulder, those eyes causing her to go weak in the knees. <span style="font-style: italic">You can ruin my shirts anytime...</span> came a joking thought. Half-joking if she were honest with herself.<br/><br/>But his question, when it finally clicked, had her eyes widening, not really sure how to respond.</span><br/><br/>â€œUm...want to, like, watch a movie or something?â€<br/><br/><span style="color: #BF00BF">Taking a moment to think it over, having to remind herself it wasn't a date like she'd read about in books, but simply two acquaintances trying to find something to do, she nodded. "A movie would be nice...What would you want to watch?"</span><br/><br/>Tobias tossed the dish towel on the counter, placing his hands on his waist as he thought, "Hmm...well I enjoy a good laugh. Comedy?" he offered.<br/><br/><span style="color: #BF00BF"><span style="font-style: italic">Comedy?</span> she asked herself, brow furrowing as she tried to picture it. <span style="font-style: italic">What does he find funny...?</span> was her next thought. She knew humor was a subjective thing, and was almost worried it wouldn't be something she liked. "...Well, what sort of comedy did you have in mind?"</span><br/><br/>Tobias's brow furrowed in a moment of thought, the chuckled to himself, "Alright...don't laugh at me..." he goes to where his tv, getting down in his knees to search through the dvds that were beneath it, finally picking out what he had been searching for. "This one," he tossed the case at her so that she could read the back, "Its called,<span style="font-style: italic">The Princess Bride</span>, kind of a romantic, adventure, comedy."<br/><br/><span style="color: #BF00BF">She followed his movements, taking a step in his direction as he searched the dvds. Thankfully, when he tossed her the case, she didn't drop it, though she fumbled a bit before steadying it. Reading the description, her lips started pulling into a smile. <span style="font-style: italic">That's my kind of movie...</span> Lily thought to herself before turning her gaze back to Tobias. "Why would I laugh at you?" she asked, a slight chuckle in her voice. "It sounds like a good movie."</span><br/><br/>Tobias shrugged, holding out his hand for the movie back, "It is not really a 'Guy' movie. So, I often expect flack about it," he admitted. "Do you want some popcorn to go along with the movie?"<br/><br/><span style="color: #BF00BF"><span style="font-style: italic">Popcorn...What the heck is popcorn...?</span> she asked herself, before shrugging. "...Popcorn sounds good!" <span style="font-style: italic">-ish,</span> she finished to herself, handing the movie back...and realizing she didn't have her gloves on. Digging them out of her pile, she pulled them on, feeling a lot more secure now that she had some more protection, as she watched his movements. "How do you like your popcorn?"</span><br/><br/>Tobias pops the movie in then stands, "With butter and salt, sometimes powered chedder cheese" he starts for the kitchen motioning her to follow. In the kitchen he digs about in his cabinets till he pulls out his air popper, setting it down on the counter. "Want to grab some drinks from the fridge?" he said to her as he adds the kernels to the popper.<br/><br/><span style="color: #BF00BF">Since the additives didn't sound too bad, she figured the popcorn couldn't be too terrible. At his request, she moved to the fridge, pulling the door open as she bent over to look. "Want anything specific?" she called over her shoulder.</span><br/><br/>Tobias looked over, his eyes instantly observing her now covered form though his mind was not shy to remind him of how it looked out of the borrowed sweats.  "Umm....soda would be fine" he stammers his head whipped back around to focus on the popcorn.<br/><br/><span style="color: #BF00BF">She'd looked over to see why he'd paused, catching him looking at her and instantly looking away, pretending she hadn't noticed. Snagging a soda out of the fridge, she took a water for herself, closing the door and then moved into the living room, setting them down on the coffee table. For a moment, she stood there awkwardly, not really sure what to do before her eyes wandered back to him, watching his movements nonchalantly. "Need anything else?"</span><br/><br/>"Um...no....I am good" he stammered as he finished with the popcorn, getting the bowl and everything else, while his mind ran through the chain of command again to get himself focused. When it is all done he brings the bowl out, setting it down on the table before taking a seat on the couch.<br/><br/><span style="color: #BF00BF">She nodded, moving so he could sit down while taking the seat at the other end of the couch, curling up against the arm of the chair. While she didn't want to be so far away, she felt better with the distance, safer. Especially where he was stammering and she felt like she was doing something. Glancing over at him for a moment as she grabbed her water, Lily turned her attention back to the screen, simply waiting for him to start it, the awkward feeling setting in heavily around her in an inescapable blanket.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">Just relax...</span> she told herself. <span style="font-style: italic">It's a movie...and a hot guy...not a big deal...just breathe...</span></span>
