Dan shook his head emphatically, and turned swiftly towards the dvd player. "I have another one, for after this. Cause I think one dvd is a fairly lousy date." Slipping the dvd into the player, he stuffed the case above, and turned back around.
"Is there anything you want before I sit down? A drink, something to eat..a massage? I know school can be tough so.." Grinning sheepishly, he clapped his hands together. "I'm kidding about the last one...unless you want one? I'm incredibly happy to oblige."
Blushing slightly, he stood awkwardly as he waited and twiddled his thums.

Aya grinned. "Well that's true." She watched him shuffle around a bit nervously and she giggled as she patted to the empty space beside her. "What I want you to do at this very moment Danian Arthur, is to sit beside me so I have someone to cuddle and so we can start the movie and I can figure out what it is. Will you oblige me in my request kind sir?"

Danian clasped his hands together briefly and nodded, before assuming a position on the couch. "Sure, totally. Except for the telling you what the movie is part. That's gonna be a secret til it starts."
Relaxing on the couch, he put his legs up on the longside of the couch and beckoned for her to lean on him. Grabbing the remote he flicked on the tv and pressed play before the picture showed up. "Ready?"

Aya smiled and scooted closer to his frame and releasing the pillow she had been hugging in his place. She curled up against him and laughed. "Press play already; the suspense is killing me." She had no clue what he had decided to prepare for her and she was excited to know if Dan really knew her as well as she hoped and picked a movie that would make her grin and laugh and probably kiss him in gratitude.

Danian sighed happily as he felt Aya relax against him. Snaking one arm around her he settled more comfortably, his eyes now fixed to the tv screen.
"I hope you like it. It isn't any of the ones we talked about at the party, but I dunno.."
Gerard Butler entered on screen, followed by Hillary Swank. He'd never watched this movie himself, but he had had to endure his sisters ranting about it for days after about how they'd laughed and cried all through the movie.

Aya wondered what the movie was as she placed her hand on his and saw the opening scenes to PS I Love You. She gasped and turned to him, surprise on her features. "A chick flick. We're watching chick flicks!" She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his cheek. "You'd watch a chick flick for me?" She snuggled into him, new respect found in Dan. "I see you in a new light double-one."

Dan chuckled softly, and nodded his head. "Yeah well. You sang their praises so much I thought I might try a new one, see if they're still all the same story."
He kissed her forehead and looked back at the tv screen. "I have no idea what this is about, but by your high pitched excitement, I gather you've seen it?" He smirked to himself, just happy that she didn't hate his first choice.

She smirked; she had not only watched the book but read it too. "Well, this isn't the same story so be prepared to apologize to me when it's over." Aya curled up against him and watched the movie, her face a picture of peace and contentment. She grinned at the familiar scenes.
A blush graced her cheeks when his lips brushed against her forehead. "Yeah I love this movie."

As Dan continued to watch, he understood why Aya loved it so much. It really wasn't anything like the rediculous romantic comedies his sisters usually watched. It had depth, and an actual, heartbreakingly close to home plot.
As the movie drew to a close, he yawned slightly and looked at Aya. "Ok, so I apologise. It's not an awful movie. In fact it's pretty awesome. So maybe I'm wrong about girl movies, just like I was wrong about girls in general."

Aya watched the movie with the fascination of someone who had never seen it before even if she already had. She sniffled and laughed at all the appropriate times but she never once forgot that Dan's arms were around her. Once the credits began to roll, she glanced at Dan and tilted her head, offering him a tiny smile. "Thank you for the apology. How were you wrong about girls?"

Danian grinned sheepishlyand shrugged his shoulders. "Just the stupid comment I made at the shops the other day. Did you want to watch the other movie?"
Regardless of his suggestion, Danian was extremely comfortable and was in no mood to move. Having Aya snuggling next to him was something he didn't want to stop,even if it was only for a short time.

Aya laughed at him in amusement and nodded in understanding. "Oh. Well I guess it depends on what the other movie is." She waggled her eyebrows suggestively. "Is it another chick flick?"
Even if they were talking about changing the movie, she too didn't want Dan to get up so she moved just a bit so her head was on his lap. She looked at him and reached up to poke his cheek. "Don't move just yet; I want to stay like this for a while." She grinned at him and only realized that they were alone in the house. "Where are your siblings?"

Danian smiled as she moved, and began running his fingers through her short soft hair. "I'm not too sure actually. Brody said something about having dinner with someone at Coble. Jade never tells me where she's going, I'm guessing she's studying at the Uni. Miki messaged me and said she was going late-night shopping at her favourite store or something. I don't really mind, means we get the place to ourselves for a little while." The second movie was one he already owned, in fact one which they had discussed at the park. Pulling it out, he showed her the cover and smiled. "Ewan McGregor is an amazing actor don't you think?"

She feigned a gasp. "What kind of big brother are you? Not knowing the whereabouts of your siblings, how irresponsible!" Aya rolled her eyes sardonically and grinned. "Yeah, leaves you to me for a bit more; I think I can deal with that." Aya closed her eyes, smiling at the feel of his fingers in her hair. "Besides, I have a bunch of random and unnecessary questions to ask you and they need privacy."
She looked at the cover of the dvd and grinned, not even bothering to hug him anymore. Dan probably knew how pleased she was. "You're my favorite person right now, do you know that? And yes, he's a great actor. Loved him since Moulin Rouge; I don't think my opinion of him is changing anytime soon."

Danian flushed scarlett and attempted a nonchalant tone of voice. "Erm..questions that need privacy? What kind would they be?" Staring at a blank spot on the wall he continued to play with her hair, forbidding his imagination to run away with him about the sort of thing Aya wanted to know.
Clearing his throat he nodded. "Yeah.. you know David Wenham who was in LOTR? He played one of the cancan dancers in Moulin Rouge." He attempted to sway her attention away from the question he'd asked, even though he was dying for an answer.
