They went out to her car and he opened her door for her. But then he stood in front of it. She looked at him and he just grinned as he said, "Aren't you going to make sure I don't have any weapons?"
"Umm.....no. I think I'll be okay. I don't see any bulges anywhere I should worry about."
"If you're sure," Nathaniel replied and stepped out of the way.
Once she was in the car, he closed the door. He got into the passenger side of the car and she drove to the movie. He paid for their tickets and got their drinks. She kept protesting that she could buy her own but he refused to let her pay for anything. They went in and sat down. About fifteen minutes into the movie, he put his arm around her shoulders. She tensed up at first but finally made herself relax.
