Serena and Rhys exited the movie theater with slow steps. The cool night air enveloped them. As they walked, Serena could feel her heart beating with a rapid rhythm, as if it was trying to jump out of her chest. It felt strange walking side by side with Rhys like this. Serena stole a glance at Rhys, trying to look for signs of the same awkwardness on his face, but Rhys seemed calm, relaxed, as if walking with Serena was the most natural thing in the world.
Right from the start, Serena tried to ignore her feelings when she found out that the person she was going to go to the movie with was Rhys. Serena was so excited, but at the same time she felt awkward and nervous. How could she not? She was going to the movies with the guy she liked.
