Cade nodded. While she wasn't necessarily the one to start a fight he wouldn't put it passed her to finish one and tell him about it after the fact. He had to respect. As if he was surprised by her words, Cade let out a laugh. The idea of kissing her hadn't crossed his mind until she'd said it."Snog you? Look at you out here shooting for second based. I'd have to kiss you first."
As she inched a little closer Cade watched her shoulders relax. There she was. He'd half expected her to mess up his hair or poke him. She was always doing stuff like that, but never in his wildest dream had he had someone touch him like. Sure, there had been feverish kisses and wondering hands, but nothing as gentle as this. His brows frowned as he tried the process the feeling. Bonnie's fingers brushed his cheek and a tingle crept down his jaw. The warm weight of her palm on his skin had him losing what little focus he had left. He met her gaze, only to find her already staring at him. That drowning feeling he'd felt the night of the ball pulled at his inside.
Cade turned his face into the touch and let her fingers travel a little more. A thoughtful smirk flicked across is face as he focused on the large movie screen. "Excuse me, I can't have you humbling me for the first time in front of everyone." He stole her line before grabbing her hand. "That wasn't nice, Bonnie." He voiced in a low playful reprimand as he turned her hand over in his. His thumb brushed over the tips of her fingers like he was reevaluating their danger level. Definitely, weapons.

He turned on his side and propped his head in his hand. She was looking everywhere but at him, which was oddly entertaining. Maybe nerves? Glaning around and then back at her he shot her a dry look. "Bonnie, I don't even like half these people. Why would I care?" Bored honestly laced his voice as his eyes wondered over the length of her. He could usually read her pretty well but her body language was all over the place. She looked like she wanted to relaxed but she also looked alert.
The thought of someone approching about any thing that had to do with Bonnie felt like a welcome invitation to get hurt. He loved a good tussle anyways. But the thought of someone doing the same to Bonnie didn't sit so weel. Brows forrowed he reached an arm over her waist and pulled her closer. Probably closer than necessary but he was trying to distract her. "If anyone says anything to you let me know. I'll take care of it. " A full on smiled graced his face knowing that she wouldn't approve of his kind of handling. There was only so much change she could get out of him in a single night.
"Plus we look the way we always do. It's not like I'm doing anything I haven't done before." The hand the that hand pulled her closer barely skimmed over her ribs as he reached up and pushed her hair out of her face."Now that if I was making scene...." his knuckles brushed her chin, teasing. "...then I could see people finding something to whisper about, but I'm just being nice." He adjusted the charm on her necklace. He was not being nice. He was teasing her. Distracting her from where ever her thoughts were trying to take her.

"Honestly? Both." He admitted. The only benefit of being benched was that it had given him time to catch up on all his work.
"Hard no. The shops put up a sign reminding all customers to return their baskets after purchases. They have like six signs up " Cade handed the popcorn over to Bonnie. "...and two of them are in other languages. I'll learn to live without it." It would be a cold day in hell before she could drag him back into that store. He spread out the picnic blanket. It had the school's logo embroidered in the center and turned out to be bigger than expected. Far less graceful then he usually did, Cade dropped onto the blanket. His hand stretched out snatching the popcorn bag before he replied to her question "This spot?" He popped a few pieces in his mouth. "No. We can see the screen and we've already seen this movie. Well technically I've seen the movie. You closed your eyes through the second half and made me sleep closer to the door." He reach up and pulled at the hem of her shirt, trying to coax her down next to him. Why did us sound different? "Or do you mean us?" Why did 'us' sound different?

Cade shrugged in confirmation. The only time he'd really fallen a sleep in the last two weeks had been when he thoroughly exhausted himself. Even then he'd been waking up, reply all their conversation. Trying to figure where everything had gotten so screwy and he he couldn't pin point the restlessness that had plagued him.
His instinct was to frown when she called him cute, but Bonnie's lingering kisse forced a smile out of him. He shook his head, not like how much such a small getsure has over him. It made him stand a little taller. "You had so many other options. Handsome? Charming?" He muttered as the entrance of the maze came into sight.
"I haven't gotten much sleep either so maybe we could end at the Room of Requirement and wish up a massive extra comfortable bed. Then sleep in and skip breakfast tomorrow?" The whole thing was something they had done a thousand times over, yet some how it felt a tiny bit different. "I could get behind that. I'm benched for tomorrow match so that'll be a nice distraction." As they walked towards the screening field Cade grabbed a bag of popcorn and a picnic blanket from a station a few students were running. "Plus we need a redo from last time. Fair warning I ate all that candy."
