Echo starts the movie, and immediately her fingers find the popcorn bowl. She tosses a few kernels in her mouth. She grabs the bowl and peers inside, then scowls at me. “Did you really just empty one thousand and one mini bags of my white cheddar popcorn in here?”

“Absolutely. Smart, right?” I tap my temple and grin. She slaps me in the back of the head and calls me an idiot. “How?” I’m confused as I rub the spot on my head she’d flattened with her hand. It didn’t really hurt, but it was the principle.

“Did you use all of them?”

“Yeah.” I didn’t know what the big deal was. She was loaded and could definitely afford to buy more popcorn.

“Just watch the movie.” She rolls her eyes and splays her fingers wide as if I was disgusting to her. “I have the right mind not to share with you at all.”

“No way you can eat that whole bowl by yourself,” I chuckle as I try to reach my hand in the bowl and grab a handful for myself. She pulls the container away from me as if I’m on popcorn punishment. I shrug as if it were no big deal. It wasn’t. If she wanted to be stingy with her popcorn, I sure as hell wasn’t gonna beg for it. I grab the pen and pad she’d laid out for me and get ready to take notes on what I knew was going to be a long boring ass movie.

“Fine,” she says as she sets the bowl between us. “I guess I can share with you.”

I turn and give her a fake, shocked expression. “Why, thank you, Ms. Bailey,” I say with a Southern drawl. Don’t ask me why it just seemed to fit the occasion.

The rest of the evening was spent with her either mouthing or acting out various parts of the movie. The movie was okay at best. Especially for it to be as old as it was. Speaking of old, all the characters looked way too old to be playing high school parts. That part was hilarious to me. After I pointed that fact out, Echo seemed to be pissed at me and accused me of missing the point and not taking our assignment seriously. I’d have to say the best part of watching it was watching her enjoy watching it.

I’m not for sure which one of us dozed off first. Her or me? But when I open my eyes, the movie was over, and Echo lay there looking completely vulnerable. She was curled up in a fetal position, slightly snoring, with her thumb in her mouth. The only thing I could think about was one click of my camera phone, and I could ruin her mean girl career for good.

That would have to wait because that sodas I drank earlier was running through me, and I needed to head to the bathroom. After coming out, I see Echo’s bedroom doorknob jiggle a little, and it freezes me in my tracks.
