It had taken a little asking around, but Liam had found something that he and Harper could do together that would constitute a proper date night. Honestly, they could have done just about anything together, and the Moon would have been content just being there with her, but he wanted to do something nice for his girlfriend(God, he could still hardly believe they were together. She was so far out of his league). Stuck on the island, with very limited funds, they didn't have a lot of options, but one thing they did have was access to a very generous I.T. guy with a laptop and an impressive library of movies. Movies neither of htem had had a chance to see, given what had been happening to them for the latter half of the year now. So Liam showed up at Harper's room just before seven, Dwight's laptop tucked under one arm, and a pillow tucked beneath the other. Once he was allowed to take leave he was going to have to buy himself another, maybe two, so there were at least two pillows in each of their rooms at all times. Until then, they were just going to have to settle with carting them back and forth when they slept in the same room.

Harper didn’t have a lot of time before seven to get ready, for whatever reason when Liam mentioned that they would be having a date later that night she felt a need to put a little more effort then she usually did every other night they saw one another. There was some attempt to clean up the mess she had of paint materials out, stuff her few clothes back into the closet, and she had borrowed a shirt from Mercy that was at least cuter than her tank tops, or at least her tanks cuts from shirts which currently was most of her wardrobe. It wasn’t much really; neither were the few snacks and drinks she had managed to claim from the cafeteria and from the bar after handing a few crumpled bills to the owner. Not that she was entirely sure if they needed it, they weren’t really going to be able to leave the island and he hadn’t told her the exact plan but, snack food was always good right? There was also the effort she made to at least make the bed; usually it wasn’t a task she attempted until she was heading to sleep or just ignored if she was at Liam’s but to be on the safe side she made it. Done she went to the door and opened it, finding Liam there with his pillow in hand as she grinned at him.

The usual self deprecating smile the young man almost always wore lit up immediately as he head the door opening and Harper appeared on the other side of it. Yes, she was definitely out of his league, there was simply no denying that. One day, h figured, she'd realize that. Until then he would just have to take advantage of every minute she allowed him to share her company. "Hey," he started happily, shifting the laptop in his hold so she could see it. "What I really wanted to do was take you to a movie, but that's not really an option yet. So I had to get creative." A slightly sheepish chuckle followed. "This thing is packed with all the new releases. I thought we could watch one, or a couple." Dark eyes had dipped from her emerald gaze and down to the laptop, then up again as he tried to gauge her reaction. A little abruptly he stepped forward to close the space between them, bending to kiss her, because he could, and sometimes he forgot that. Because he never tired of the taste if her lips, or her laugh, or the way her face fell into lines of concentration when she painted. Make the most of the time you have. The world was a dangerous place, and he wanted to make to most of the life he had.

If Harper could give any wider of a grin she would have as she saw the laptop in his hand and the offer of watching a few movies on it. After day zero she had fallen behind on watching anything other than what Mercy had offered at the movie night party, and even better she didn’t have to share a room with a half dozen people tonight. “Oohh, well then I guess it was a good thing I bought some snacks. It’s perfect, you’re perfect, and I vote we watch at least three maybbee...dependiinngg.” A laugh fell from her lips as she held up her hand for three, not that she would really hold him to it especially if they were distracted which was Harper’s specialty when she wanted it to be. When he kissed her she wrapped her fingers around the shirt on his chest pulling him slowly into her room as she pushed the door to shut behind them. It had been strange how everything had changed so much in the last few months, day zero, the university, waking up at Deus, and the confusion that was involved in learning about everything new. It was a whirlwind of change and with it the reminder that life was very short and that living every moment was still so important. Right now she wanted nothing more than to spend that time with him, for as long as he would have her, as long as she could before it slipped away and like everything else changed on her.

Liam made a rather pleased sound against full lips as he felt her fingers wrap in the front of his shirt to drag him into the room so she could close the door behind him. He was more than willing to follow, keeping close enough to prolong the kiss. "You're perfect."Her voice echoed in her head, and he felt a soft throb of happiness in his chest, even as Rhenwick rolled his eyes and scoffed. Retreating back to the farther recesses of the young man's mind. This was all just a little too sappy for the reverent, a little too sweet. Give him strife and insecurities to exploit, not this mush. He kept them moving until they reached the desk and he could set the laptop down, toss the pillow at the bed, then grab for her sides to drag her in against him. She was incredibly addicting, every kiss, every touch, every bright glance from those emerald chip eyes. It would have been so easy to let himself sink into her skin, to just let the heat that had barely begun to build spill out, but he had a plan. He also had to breathe. Liam laughted softly as he drew back enough enough to talk, forehead to forehead. "Have you seen Mad Max yet, the new one?"

He followed her into the room, her hand still wrapped around his shirt as he put the laptop down and tossed the pillow on the bed. It wasn’t until his hands where at her sides that she let go, drawing her hands up to wrap them around his neck. It was easy, almost too easy for her to slip into wanting more from him, the taste of his lips, the feeling of his fingers across her body, even just the subtle touch of his skin against hers. A soft noise escaped as he drew back pressing his forehead against hers, as she struggled briefly to not keep going. “No I don’t think I have, but to be fair I haven’t seen a lot of movie’s lately I’ve been a little busy, someone I know keeps me rather preoccupied when I am not training.” Harper grinned lacing her fingers in his hair, if she wasn’t with Liam she was training or doing some sort of rotation of shifts or mission. The whole having free time to do whatever she wanted like watching movies hadn’t really happened too often yet. Not that she would ever complain or trade it for anything else for the moment.

He had to grin back, and it was a wonderful mix somewhere between sheepish and proud. "I can't help it," he admitted after a soft chuckle, drawing a hand up to touch her cheek with his knuckles. "Some's kind of addicting." ~ Kind of? Boil, you've got a problem~ Shut up. He didn't bother denying, because he couldn't. If Harper ever realized just how much he was into her, how much control she could have over him, Liam was in trouble. But she wouldn't do that, not like some people they knew. She was kind, and sweet, and selfless. Sliding his knuckle under her chin, he tipped her head back to give her a softer kiss before stepping back and taking her hands so he could draw her towards the bed. "I haven't seen it either, but I remember seeing the previous." Sinking down on the edge of the mattress, he pulled her down with him as he grabbed for the laptop and slid back and arranged a few pillows so he could sit against the wall.

A light laugh spilled from her smile as he drew his hand up to her cheek, one that if could speak would have told him thank you and that she bore no regrets or embarrassment in being a distraction to him. “Hmm, I wonder who that could be maybe they could tell their secret.” Eerikki merely made gagging noises somewhere, there was of course the sentiment that all of the hunter’s time wasted on some boil and any other creeple for that matter was severely cutting into their training time and unnecessary for the time being. So far she hadn’t earned her free time yet to him yet. Harper leaned into the soft kiss Liam offered before following him to the bed and sitting on the edge with less finesse than he did. “Is it terrible I don’t remember the previous ones…..” She looked at him with a bit of a sheepish look as he leaned back against the wall, truthfully she wasn’t even sure she had seen it at all. “Oh I have snacks to, not any popcorn but there are drinks and chips if you want.”

His lips ghosted against her cheek. "It won't matter if you can't remember them, I guess this one is more of relaunch of the franchise, so it's not a direct continuation at all." He set the laptop on the bed next to his knee, then turned hi attention up to the drinks on her desk. "Could you grab me drink while I get this set up?" Getting the movie ready to play only took a handful of seconds, so he could hold his hand out to Harper before she could settle against the wall beside him, draw her into the circle of his arms so she was sitting between his legs, leaning back against his chest. When she was settled, and he had his drink, and they both had whatever snacks she happened to grab as well, he set the laptop on her legs and hit a button to start the movie up.

“Perfect then.” Her skin prickling as his lips ghost along her cheek, not wanting to leave as she got to her feet to reach for the snacks and drinks on the desk. There was just two bottles of Coca Cola on the top of the desk and leaning over Harper leaned over to the top draw pulling it open to grab the snacks. “Sure, and I have Cheetos, aaanndd a bag of Skittles if you’re ok with.” Holding them up for him to see a soft grin on her face hoping he didn’t have any real object to either one. Setting them on the bed off to the side she took Liam’s hand as she pressed her knee into the edge of the mattress trying to not disturb the laptop next to him. Easing her way over she settled in next to him her back pressing against his chest her head leaning back just a little for her forehead to touch his chin.

As the screen lit up Liam opened his coke to take a quick drink, but it was capped and set tot he side as the scene opened on a man standing in the middle of the desert, and the start of a gruff voice over from who he had to assume was Max. Settling back comfortably, his hands went to Harper's arms, resting briefly at the crooks of her elbows before starting up towards her shoulder in a slow, idle climb. He couldn't really help himself. If she was near him, he had to be touching her. A small shift of his chin let him press his lips against the short hair on the side of her head. He liked the way it felt against his skin, that soft tickling brush. The cut suited her, the color suited her as well. Loud and energetic, just like her.

She opened the bag of Cheetos, it had been a slight struggle for her to not open the bag earlier and horribly devour most of it but with Liam there she was even less hesitant to let herself pig out on them. Instead she took one and settled them on the bed next to Liam’s leg as the voice came across the screen showing a man in the desert before the noise of engines roared in the small speakers. Her skin started to prickle as his hands slowly started to gently gaze up her arms as she felt his lips along the short edge of her hair sending a faint little shiver along her spine. If he kept this up she was going to have a hard time paying attention to the movie at all, and instead she would love all concentration to him.

Liam really wasn't aware of the effects his idle hands were having on the girl sitting between his legs. His attention was, for the most part, focused on the movie as they watched a newly shorn Max racing through twisting corridors with a what appeared to be an army of white skinned, balded headed, and shirtless men chasing after him. It was a pretty intense scene, especially with the mysterious flashbacks to an unknown child(Liam was guessing it was a daughter, or some other youth that had been under his protection.). He also hadn't noticed Harper grabbing a bag of cheetos, not even as she opened them and started eating. He wasn't hungry himself, but if she wanted to snack, that was fine with him. He was perfectly content with the feel of her skin beneath his fingers and the movie playing on the small screen resting on her lap. As the movie played, the run of his lips against the shaved side of her head slowed until eventually he stopped completely, cheek coming to rest there instead after a soft kiss to the temple.

It didn’t take long for Harper to be sucked into the movie, the racing scene as the main character drove through the daunting terrain, the occasional flashbacks to some little girl that she could only guess was no longer a part of his left. Soon he was caught, roughly handled into submission before the movie turned over to a new set of characters that looked promising as the main character was dragged in before trying to make a new attempt of an escape. At this point Harper had scooted the Cheetos bag even closer and was mindlessly eating one at a time while she was focused into the movie. Her eyes wide as the skin prickled along the trail he had left with his lips, stopping completely at the temple, as his cheek pressed was warm against her. She wanted to ask if the girl was from a previous movie but as the boys managed to capture Max again the thought was lost.

Looked like the movie was going to be action packed right out the gate. Liam watched on as the scene shifted from Max's recapture and onto the citadel. Furiosa getting into the war rig, the War boys, Immortan Joe. In the first few minutes it was very obvious who was the villain and who was a hero. The colors, despite it being a desert waste land, were all bright and vivid. His hands began wandering again as they watched, just an idle brush of his thumbs along her elbows, slow and very obviously distracted. "It would be hell living there if you weren't a war boy or someone important enough to be in the citadel," he mused softly. The wives, alright they had lived in as much luxary as was available, had been left off the list. If it had been as good as it looked, they wouldn't have left.
