Chapter 44

I was pretty quiet on the way to the movie theatre, anytime anyone brought attention to it Larry would step in and save me, changing the subject.  I  am so grateful to him, so many times I wanted to cry in that van.  Standing in line at the concession stand I see a guy looking at me ane I smile back.  He leaves his friends in line and walks over to me,
"Mind if I stand in line with you?"  I shake my head,
"No, I don't mind."  He smiles,
"My name is Josh."  I shake his extended hand,
"Quinn."  His eyes widen and he nods,
Quinn, nice name."  I smile, he probably thought it was going to be something totally strange or unusual, damn stop it,
"So, you aren't here alone are you?"  I shake my head,
"No, there's a group of us."  He nods,
"Too bad, I'm the third wheel with my friend and his girlfriend, I was hoping you could join us."  I smile,
"Sorry."  I catch Sammy's eye and he smiles as he walks by,
"So, you go to school or do you work?"  I look back over at Josh,
"I work, I live in Miami."  He nods,
"Vacation?"  No, just following behind a Backstreet Boy,
"Something like that yeah.  What do you do?"  He smiles at me and my heart can't help but race, he is definitely confident, with good reason I acknowledge, he is quite good looking,
"I'm in school at Harvard."  I nod,
"What's your major?"  He has yet to take his eyes off me and there is nothing I love more than a confident guy but he lives in Boston I live in Florida,
"I'm in law school."  I nod,
"So do you want to change the world or make a lot of money?"  His smiles seems to broaden as he raises his eyebrows,
"I want to make a lot of money while I change the world."  I laugh as he continues,
"So, how long are you going to be here?"  My smile dims slightly,
"I leave late tomorrow afternoon." We make it to the front of the line and I place my order then he adds his order to it and looks over at me and winks after he pays,
"Thanks." 
"Not a problem.  So how about a hug Quinn from Miami?"  I smile and give him a hug then he whispers,
"Very nice."  He pecks me on the cheek as we pull back and I nod,
"Well, I gotta go, bye."  He nods his head and watches as I walk off.  Nick looks over at Josh and his friends,
"Who was that?"  I smile at Larry who has a huge grin on his face,
"Just a guy."  We all head into the theatre wondering if we would all be able to sit near each other.
