How do I get my boyfriend to hold my hand?

I have known Mitch for 4 years, we went out in 7th grade for 2 weeks. He broke up with be because we were to young and he wasn't ready for a relationship. We never really stopped talking, he's always been my friend. Now, we just got out of 9th grade. He asked me out almost two months ago, I said yes. About 2 weeks into our relationship we held hands when we went to see a play. But we only held hands for like 2 scenes. The play was 3 hours long. Now, we are going to the movies tomorrow night and I want him to hold my hand. Or how do I hold his hand with out making it awkward? I guess.. We are each others real first boyfriend/girlfriend. What should I do?
