This was writing exercise 16, about a first kiss gone horribly wrong. What are your thoughts?
They kissed. It was their first kiss, and they had wanted it to be perfect, and utterly romantic. Just then, the doors to the movie theater were thrown open, and in rushed an angry mob. They had torches and pitchforks, which was weird because it's really difficult to find even one torch or pitchfork these days. The mob was angry because the movie theater was selling small popcorn for ten dollars each. The cashier was panicking. "All movie theaters charge a lot for snacks!" he yelled. "Why are you only picking on us?" another cashier chimed in. The mob wasn't listening. The lit on the popcorn seeds on fire and the place filled with popcorn kernels almost instantly. People were trying to leave the theater because their movie was over. They couldn't get through the mob. Some of them joined the mob because they had spare torches in their purses. The mob members grabbed as much food as they could. Anyone that tried to stop them was stabbed with a pitchfork. It was a total disaster. Luckily, the boy and girl had left the theater just before this had all happened. Their first kiss went on with no interruptions.
