He did say that it was a surprise, so dinner could not be it.

She wanted more because this night might be the last of its kind if he was sure about his decision. Once he became King, it would be harder for them to have a semblance of normalcy in their lives.

“So?” She looked at him with expectant eyes. She dropped the napkin back on the table, ready for the next part of the date. “Where to?” Raising her eyebrows at him.

He smiled at her as if he had already read her thoughts. But the glimmer in his eyes told her that he had something prepared in his mind.

Dropping some bills on the table, he stood up, extending his hands to her. She quickly entwined her arms with his, proud to be escorted by the best husband in the world as they walked out the door.

She was aware that they had attracted much attention in the restaurant, but they were not celebrities. They would not bother them for a photograph and a signature.

.....

She doubted when they had become King and Queens if that would be the same case. However, she could see that they would automatically become a worldwide sensation.

“What are you thinking?” Alex asked her. He must have noticed her silence as she mused about their future.

“What about a movie?” Pointing at the opposite theater from their location. All they had to do was cross the street and buy a ticket. It was such a simple activity that could be full of fun.

His eyes followed hers, landing on the building across from them. It was not a new one, but it looked decent.

“Why not?” He nodded his head and signaled for his man to stand by. “Shall we cross the street?” He asked her, looking at the very light traffic.

After buying their tickets, he escorted her inside the dim room, with an usherette guiding them to their designated chair. She could not help but smile since she could not remember when was the last time she had been in this same position.

“Anything funny? The movie had not started yet.” Alex asked as his eyes studied her face from the glow of the lights coming from the corner lamps.

She finally turned to him, slightly shifting from his arm, enveloping her shoulders. “Tell me, who was the last girl you brought in a date in a movie?” She asked, curious if he could still remember her name.

She watched him scrunched up his nose as if thinking, then his eyes lighted up, and a smile spread on his lips.

“You.” He answered her. “You are the last person I was with when I last watched a movie.” Reminding her of that instance that they had a last-minute decision to catch a show like this. “If I remember right, it was a horror movie.”

He continued, smirking at her as if he had the upper hand, he remembered, and she did not. “I was just testing you if you remember or if you went on another date that was not me.”

She reasoned, expecting to get away with it. But of course, her husband was too smart for his own good, catching her lame excuse as he started chuckling in his seat.

“Fine, I forgot. But you know I have plenty of things on mind.” She admitted, but Alex immediately stopped laughing and pulled her body close to his, kissing her on the top of her head.

“I know, and I am glad that you are the one sitting beside me now and forever.” Alex pulled her chin up until she was gazing into his eyes.

She could not help to be teary-eyed from what he said. But more than just his words, her actions overwhelmed her. When his arms wrapped around her in a protective stance, his eyes showered her with his love. Moreover, how his lips claimed hers with so much passion.

All the bad things that happened in her life seemed insignificant when she was with him. He somehow filled all those emptiness inside her and covered all those horrible things in her past.

Then, a little whistling and shouting ensued around them.

It took a few seconds for her to realize what was happening, but when a voice called their attention. She quickly moved away from her husband’s hold. Alex also looked around them.

“Hey, better do that when the lights are out.” Someone at their back told them.

“Oh my!” She slightly covered her face, just a bit embarrassed to be caught making out with her husband in the movie theater.

Although it had been a common practice among couples to kiss and make out in this dark place, she forgot that the lights were still on and the movie had yet to start.

It seemed they had been the main attraction as many eyes watched them since they had nothing else to do.

“Sorry. We will resume later when the movie starts.” Alex looked at the old lady who spoke to them with a boyish smile on his face.

“You do look adorable. I did love watching the two of you. I only wish my husband was here to join me tonight.” The old lady said. “But I have my granddaughter with me.” Tapping the young lady who waved at them, slightly embarrassed by her grandmother’s adorable action.

But she felt that what they did was more embarrassing than hers. She enjoyed talking to this sweet lady as she shared her experience when her husband was still alive.

“You two have a lovely evening. I hope that you will have several of these soon.” The elder lady tapped her granddaughter on her hands to indicate what she meant by that before the lights finally turned off and the movie started.

She and Alex had to return their attention to the screen, thanking the sweet old lady for the interesting conversation. Then, they had finally forgotten about the making-out scene as they enjoyed the movie before them. And just like the other time, they had discussed the different attributes of the story, making it a worthwhile and fun experience.

“That was an interesting night.” She gazed at her husband as they finally drove home from their fantastic adventure. At the moment, that was the wildest thing that they could come up with in such a short time.

But she was sure that her husband would not run out of things to make their relationship exciting and fun even if he finally took the throne. It might be a level more difficult, but she had no doubt more exhilarating than this one.

“It was, but you have nothing to worry about since it will not be the last.” It seemed that Alex could sense what she thought as he held her hands to his lips and planted a solid kiss on her knuckles.

She believed he would have done more if he was not driving. Suddenly her mind wondered when they would make out in a car. But it was an impossible scenario since their security was constantly watching them.

It was just the outlandish imagination of a woman looking for some adventure. But it certainly made her forget most of her worries as she let her mind go on a wild fantasy ride.
