friday evening found theodore in his room, belly down on his bed, with his face in a book. tara was supposed to come over later, around nine. the plan was that they watch a movie ( the particular film was undecided. ) he had a few titles in mind, and had already pulled them out of god knows where and spread them out across the coffee table. he was thinking that they'd watch in the living room, where they had easy access to the microwave for popcorn, and the bathroom was right across the way, in case tara peed her pants, ha. that probably wouldn't happen, but hey. just in case, right? right. and he already went around his apartment, placing recent artwork in strategic places. theodore figured tara would pick up something sometime, and chances were they'd start talking about it, and you know how theodore loves to blab about his artwork. then again, that wasn't the main objective of the night-- he couldn't seem to decide whether or not he wanted to try and take things with tara farther tonight. he didn't like thinking about it; by reading harry potter he was attempting to kick it all back into some damp, dusty corner of the attic of his head. .. it wasn't working, though. he couldn't seem to get past it, and he couldn't seem to recall anything about the paragraph he had just read for the seventh time.
theodore didn't know what to do with this dilemma. on one hand, he had charlotte, and on the other he had tara. he couldn't even begin to compare and contrast them, they were alike in so many ways that it almost seemed like the choice didn't matter. but that wasn't the real issue, the thing was that theodore didn't want to only have one, he wanted both. yeah, it was selfish and abusive, but in his ideal world he would be able to go to tara one day and then charlotte another, depending on what he felt like. he knew it was impossible, but. it was still nice to think about. but if he kept both as friends, then there'd be no sexy action to be seen anywhere; he figured that much. on his judgment, the second he kissed one girl the other would be thrown out the window, and he didn't want that at all. but what if, just maybe, he could have relations with both? if he kept everything on the down low and no one exposed him.. holy shit. it just might work. yeah, it might work! putting down the book, he lifted his eyes to scan the room. .. he could have movie night in his bedroom, hum. that'd be sexy, to say the least.
getting to his feet, he eyed the television on the bureau against the wall. it wasn't as big as the other one, but the bed was a thousand times comfier than the stubborn sofa. checking the time via a quick glance at the old style clock above his head, he moved into the living room, bending at the waist to gather the scattered dvds into his arms. stacking them up on his bedside table, he made sure that his preferences were on top, and his least favorites were on the bottom. he doubted she would notice, but if she happened to pick the first one she saw then he'd be content. realizing that his bed was a mess, he tugged at the sheets, tucking them in underneath the pillows-- then loosening them so they weren't too difficult to get under. coming to the conclusion that he wasn't dressed enough for the occasion, he ransacked the dresser for flannel pajama pants and a white wife beater. taking another glance at the beater, he abandoned it in favor of being shirtless. after changing, he took note of the time again and sat down on his bed again, picking up the novel again. now, he just had to wait for tara to show.
after a solid half hour, he began to wonder what was keeping her. was she going to ditch on him? theodore wouldn't have been so paranoid if he didn't have things in mind for tonight, if he still thought of her as out of bounds. as he considered the situation, he heard sound outside. dropping the book and bringing himself to his feet, he grabbed a blanket and draped it over his shoulders. looking around one last time as he walked toward the door, he ruffled his hair with one hand. it ended up resting on the back of his neck as he opened the door inward. "hot damn, tara?!" smirking, he stood there for a moment before reaching out and securing a hold on her hand, pulling her in gently. "i've missed you, what kept you!" it was more of a statement than a question, but he gave her room to answer anyway. letting go of her, he subconsciously adjusted his blanket while a slight grin took over his features. "so, movies. i've got loads, c'mere." smirking at her, ted backed up, moving slowly though the hall, not wanting to move too far away too fast. "you get to pick." the movie choice was the last thing on his mind, though. this was going to be good.
