How To Ruin A Love Comedy

Chapter 18: Movie Theatre Event 2

***

My skin became a little paler.

Now I dont look tan.

I was already missing the blond hair from the classic tan blond bully look, but now that Im not tan either, Im just a bully.

At least now brighter clothing will match with my skin better, so lets just be thankful for that.

I exited the theatre bathroom and waited in a cafe beside the theatre, drinking my coffee and waiting for Miyuki to come.

Around 7:50, I saw Miyuki come up from the escalator.

She was looking around her surroundings.

As if she never went home from the arcade, she was still wearing her bag.

When I raised one hand towards Miyuki, she approached me with a bright expression and sat across from me.

When did you get here?

About 10 minutes ago.

You got here quite early?

I guess I left a bit too early. You also came early.

Im not the kind of person whos late for every class, unlike a certain someone.

I chuckled at Miyukis joke and gave Miyuki the ice americano I had already ordered beforehand.

Drink it. You look like youre hot.

Just as I said, Miyukis forehead had a lot of sweat on it.

Miyuki carefully recieved the americano and spoke.

Thanks for the drink.

Did you come directly from the arcade?

Yeah. I was only going to play for an hour But when I was playing together, I lost the track of time.

Is being with Tetsuya that fun?

Dont make me jealous.

Miyuki sucked on the straw, then made a blissful expression.

Whoa Its really cold Did you buy the movie tickets already?

Yeah.

What movie is it?

During the hot summers, is there anything better to watch than a horror movie?

Its one of the important cliches in a love comedy.

A scary one.

Huh? A horror movie? Matsuda-kun, are you good with that stuff?

This is the first time Im watching one voluntarily.

If I knew what happens, I could at least be prepared for the jump scares,

But when I played Dokiaca, it just said stuff like it was a horror movie. , When the ghost first appeared and then the event happened.

So thats why I was more nervous than I usually was.

I picked it because it had good ratings. Are you good with horror?

Yeah, I like horror movies.

I guess the trope of the female heroine being scared of ghosts is a tired concept.

But Dokiaca is usually filled with that kind of cliche stuff. Thinking about it makes me feel a little depressed.

If Miyuki got scared easily, then I could have enjoyed a skinship event for free.

When I silently nodded my head, Miyuki pulled out her wallet as she spoke.

Ill get the popcorn. Do you want want sodas?

I already bought it. If I give them the ticket, theyll give it to us immediately.

How much was it?

990 yen.

Miyuki looked at the cafe menu.

She confirmed the price of the americano, then starting pulling out money from her wallet.

Heres 1370 yen.

I dont need it. Ill buy it for today, you just have to buy it the next time.

When I started talking about having a second date, Miyukis hands stopped moving for a moment.

She was hesitant on what to do, then spoke feebly.

But the money spent wont be equal Even the last time at the hospital

Between us, there isnt a mine or yours.

If you still feel bad, book us a love hotel later.

Whatever, I dont like being that rigid, so just say you will buy the next movie.

I understand Then I promise that I will buy it next time. I promise.

Emphasizing I promise twice Todays atmosphere is quite good.

I get it already. Lets just go grab popcorn.

Ok.

I got up from my seat and put Miyukis bag on my shoulder.

Before she could say anything, I spoke up first.

This bag is disgustingly heavy No wonder why youre so short. Are you even 160cm?

Miyuki, who was raising her hands forward as if to ask for her bag back, replied angrily.

I-Im 162cm! I just seem small because Matsuda-kun is so big!

A little kid shouldnt be messing around like this. When an adult helps you, you should say thank you.

Wh-What do you mean adult! Stop talking about weird stuff and give me my bag Ma-Matsuda-kun! Wait for me!

When I ignored Miyuki and walked towards the stand, she followed behind hurriedly while holding on to the coffee.

After trying to take her bag from me for several minutes, Miyuki eventually gave up and reluctantly thanked me while pouting.

So cute. I want to grab and stretch her cheeks out.

I smiled at her as I gave the ticket to the stand worker.

After a very short wait, we were given two colas, popcorn and a hotdog.

Number 837 couple set. Hope you guys enjoy.

I laughed lightly and grabbed a the popcorn and a cola.

I pointed to the leftover things with my chin.

You grab the other cola and hotdog.

Oh? O-Ok

Miyukis face was slightly flushed.

Looks like she was embarrassed by the word couple.

I wont be able to see these reactions when we start dating I might come to miss them later.

Well, good thing Ill still have Renka and Hiyori left, so Ill continue seeing it for a while.

**

Isnt this colour too fancy? I like silver-white, or black. Theyre simple.

Im the same. I was just looking to see what kind of empty headed idiots drive these kinda things.

Matsuda-kun, dont speak like that.

Alright.

We were picking out a car together while have a light chitchat, but naturally ended it when the movie started.

Creeaaaak!

Along with the distributors logo, a creepy sound attacked my ears.

This is what I hate about horror movies.

The sound that was meant to make you nervous even from the beginning.

I already have goosebumps.

One good thing is that the theater is filled with people.

Before sitting down on our seats, I made sure the extras were sitting behind me.

I somewhat calmed down, and was going to drink my cola,

Crunch.

I heard Miyuki chewing on the popcorn from beside me.

I purposely flinched and acted scared.

Ah fu

When I stared at Miyuki with a grimance on my face, she put her lips next to my ear.

I guess you get scared easier than you look? Were you about to swear just then?

Whenever Miyuki speaks, her breath kinda tickles my ears.

I cant get an erection here. This is a big problem.

But I didnt so its fine. Also, eat quietly.

But I ate really quietly? Matsuda-kun, did you become more sensitive? Are you that scared?

What are you talking about Whatever. Lets stop talking.

I scoffed and grabbed onto my seat, as I started to focus on the movie.

The story is about some students trying to do exorcism in a haunted house, and they disappear one by one.

Such an obvious plot. But its still scary as fuck.

Kyaaa!

As soon as the main characters enter the house, screams could be heard.

I shook my head, and prayed that the ghost would show up soon.

However, contrary to my prayers, the ghost didnt show up even after 40 minutes.

Boom!

Crash!

DUDUDUDUDUDU!

Every time I eased my nervousness, something happened that made me hold my breath.

Wait. Why was I so focused on the movie?

I just have to think about the event.

As soon as I realized that and finally calmed down,

BOOM. BOOM BOOM BOOM!

KYAAAAA!

Along with the fmcs piercing screams, a horribly scary ghost appeared and started the movies climax.

As I let out a Hyuk! sound at the unexpected timing, getting genuinely scared,

AHHH!

The woman sitting behind me stood up suddenly and spilled all the cola on my head.

Finally the event happened.

I can finally relax.

The classic coke colour seeped into my t-shirt in an instant, and the ice made its way inside the t-shirt and touched my skin.

This was a cool summer.

Matsuda-kun, are you ok?

Miyuki freaked out as she looked at me.

I-Im so sorry! Im really sorry!

The woman bowed to me.

The entire theater was focused on the sudden commotion.

This is where you pick the choices

I could make my own choice like in the festival, but for this event, lets just follow the best choice from Dokiaca.

I quickly finished thinking, and turned around smiling at the woman and waved one hand.

Its no problem. Enjoy the rest of the movie.

I-I can wipe it off

I also got scared and spilled cola over myself anyways. I was already wet, so dont worry about it.

Im really sorry Ill pay for your laundry fees.

Im telling you its all good already.

Were inside a movie theater! You need to be quiet! Its really alright. Hope you enjoy the movie.

. Sorry

I forcibly finished the conversation, and lifted up the t shirt that didnt get soaked and wiped my hair with it.

Miyuki lightly tapped on my shoulder and whispered.

Ill give you a towel, so use that instead

I dont need it. Itll dry as I watch the movie.

Haah How come you are so positive in a situation like this What is happening

Did you get wet?

Only a little bit on my arm. Its alright.

Thats good.

The wet t-shirt stuck tightly to my body, showing off my muscles.

Miyuki took glances at my body with the help of the light from the movie, then looked at the cola on cup holder.

She once again put her lips to my ear.

Matsuda-kun.

What.

You didnt spill the cola.

I guess not. I thought I did.

Miyuki didnt speak again and just continued to stare at me.

You must have been awed at my kindness to this woman right? My affection points went up right?

I feel that the day I could call her Miyuki instead of Hanazawa is coming soon.

I pretended to watch the movie, then tapped Miyuki on the arm acting like I just came up with an idea.

Yo, Hanazawa.

Miyuki hesitated then flinched her shoulders.

She probably thought she got caught taking glimpses of me.

Yeah What is it? Do you need a towel?

What are you talking about I dont need it

I stretched my beige shorts to show the middle of it, which had stains from the coke.

Then asked jokingly.

Doesnt it look like I pissed myself cause I was scared?

.

Was she at a loss for words because she didnt expect me to joke in this situation?

Miyuki only let out an empty laugh.

She sat like that for a moment, then slightly smiled looking at my childish expression.

Next time Ill buy you some adult diapers.

Does something like that even exist?

It does. Its for people like Matsuda-kun who cant hold it in.

Now that we are talking about piss, I actually need to go to the bathroom. Im just gonna be right back, so just keep watching.

Ill come with. Ill borrow something for you to dry off with from the employees.

If you want to.

Could you please? Try saying that.

Nah.

She shook her head at my flat denial, but I could still see a smile forming on her face.

Todays event was boring, but it was meaningful in its own way.

Lets just finish it by getting ice cream together on the way back.
