10 - getting ready

(Mikey's POV)

Dear Diary,

Oh my gosh. This is my first date with Lukey! I'm scared. I've never been on a date before! What even is a date? Mommy said its when two people that care about each other very much (like mommies and daddies do) go and do fun things together to show how much they care. I care about Lukey a lot, so I'm very glad we're going on our date! I'm not sure what to wear on our date. I can't wear my Spider-Man onesie, can I?

What to wear? Luke had no idea. He had a whole evening planned for Mikey at the boardwalk, but everyone knows Luke doesn't wear shorts.

He kicked around his room and closet, strewing clothes everywhere as he searched more and more frantically as time ticked by.

At 6:32 Luke finally picked an outfit. Darker denim ripped skinny jeans with converse, one of his less "punk rock" shirts (no need to scare the children), and finally a flannel with the sleeves rolled up (in case it got cold).

Luke styled his hair to perfection and looked in the mirror, pleased with what he saw. He looked like and average teenager, out for a night of fun on the boardwalk.

He jogged down the stairs at 6:44 and told his mom to wish him luck.

Ohmygosh, Michael thought frantically, searching his room for something to wear. He was beginning to panic, as Michael's mom explained to him that it, apparently, was not acceptable to wear your Spider-Man onesie on a date.

After trying on a million outfits, none of them to Michael's satisfaction, he was ready to give up.

"Wait!", Karen stood up happily. "I think I know exactly what you should wear.", She smiled down at him before mom-walking out of the room.

Michael shrugged and pulled on some khaki cargo shorts like the average white boy he's not, because it was summer and it was hot.

He put on his Spider-Man crew socks with his red converse, just as his mom came back into the room with a red and blue striped shirt.

"It's Luke's. He left it for you because you loved it so much, remember?", She smiled, holding it up for him to see.

"Yes mommy yes you're a GENIUS!", he smiled brightly, running over to hug her. His kitten ears tickled her nose, causing her to smile even more at her pink haired son.

Just as Michael let go he heard a knock on the door. 6:45, he was early.
