Isabella yelled again. "Oncie, don't get in that car!" The Onceler rolled his eyes and then put on a smile. "Yes? Are you okay?" Isabella shook her head.

"You can't get in that car. If people see you two together, they're going to think you're dating.

"We are, Ma." She looked shocked. Isabella shook her head again. "You can't make people think they don't have a chance with you. Some of these girls are buying thneeds just to get you're attention. If they don't think they have a chance with you, they won't keep buying."

The Onceler looked a little worried. He looked at me and then back at Isabella. "I won't tell anyone, we have a right to leave the house together though." His mom crossed her arms. "You may think people are slow though you're risking a lot Oncie."

"Okay, Ma. I'll be careful. I won't tell anyone."

Isabella looked hesitant though she let us go and we got in the limo together. The Onceler was so tall he was sitting a little awkwardly. His face looked sad.

"I'm sorry." He said, "She's just doing what's best for the company."

"It's okay," I replied. I was a little sad though. Not because we weren't telling people we were dating, really because I wanted him to stand up to his mom some day.

"We're going to have a lot of fun, Once." I said. He smilled and looked like he was in a good mood for the rest of the car trip.

The Onceler got out of the car and opened the door for me. The restaurant I saw was huge. The Onceler took my arm and we began to walk in before a crowd of girls ran up to us. They surrounded the Onceler and he lifted his arms up.

"Hey, girl's come on. I've got to go." A security guard got us out of there and people began taking pictures. The Onceler put his arm around me and pulled me close.

I took a deep breath and sticked close to him. We went inside and a nice waitress wearing a thneed around her waist got us seated. She looked very excited to see the Onceler. We were served quickly and our food arrived shortly.

The Onceler began speaking. "I'm sorry we got swarmed like that. It happens to me everytime I go out."

It was like he read my mind. I had just been wondering about how often he was swarmed.

"I'm used to it now, I understand you won't be though. I promise I'll protect you though. Nothing bad will happen while you're with me." He swallowed nervously.

"While I'm with you I can think about nothing else. I just want to be with you, Y/N. Does that sound weak?"

I grinned. "No, never. I feel the same."

He paused for a moment before blushing. "You're so beautiful. Everything about you is. You make me feel calm. Except for when you make me feel nervous." He paused. "What else er- were you thinking of doing today?" he asked.

I had a good response for that question.
