At home after unbagging everything, Matt goes to Dani's room to find her an outfit, "You aren't gonna give me any idea?" She asks walking into her room.

"Nope."

"It just hit me... How do you already know what you want to do for a first date?" She asks watching him freeze in place causing her to giggle, "Can I pick your outfit?"

"I'll let you pick it but we can't see what we choose for each other until it's time to get ready."

Dani nods her head rushing out of her room to go to his. Nick and Chris were confused to see her run by so fast. Curious, Chris gets up going to Matt's room to find her going through Matt's closet.

"What you doing?" He asks her.

"Picking an outfit out for Matt. I lost a bet in the car on the way home and I have to take him out to dinner tonight. He gets to pick my outfit as well so I asked can I at least pick one for him." She makes up a cover, "I can't believe I have to spend my money on him again. AND he wants an expensive dinner."

"When will you learn to stop making bets with him. You never win."

"Thanks for reminding me." She gives him a look since that was true.

"Do you get to see what he picks out for you?"

"Not until we get ready." She gets the whole outfit together and holds them as Matt enters his room.

"No looking!" He turns his back towards her so she leaves his room with the clothes taking them to her room hiding it in case comes back into her room.

The two take showers one after the other to get ready since Matt didn't want to go out super late. Entering her room she sees the outside he picked on her bed and she laughs a bit. While doing her hair and make up, Nick enters her room.

"You two are cleaning up too much for just a regular dinner."

"Nick, it's literally nothing. I don't know what he wants me to buy and it's dinner. I'm not gonna look like a mess. If he wanted me to buy him a steak they wouldn't let us have a table. Get what I mean." She gives him a look through her mirror.

"If you don't ever make a move on Matt, I need you to find someone else. Just so I don't get my hopes up."

"Well, get over it. It's not happening." She lies to him so he whines leaving her room.

Once she was finished she goes upstairs to see Matt on the couch, "How the hell did you somehow pick out the same fucking outfit?" He shakes his head at her

Once she was finished she goes upstairs to see Matt on the couch, "How the hell did you somehow pick out the same fucking outfit?" He shakes his head at her.

"Honestly, I have no fucking idea how I did that. We were somehow on the same wave length or something." She laughs as Chris comes downstairs.

"You two are matching again?" He eyes the two.

"Unintentionally." They both tell him at the exact same time.

Chris's eyes widened and shakes his head, "I think y'all should spend less time together. You're becoming one. And I can't have that. I don't think I'll live long with two Matt's."

"What you don't want to be quadruplets?" Dani jokes.

"We basically are." He goes to get a drink, "Just leave already for your dinner. Matt get something expensive."

"We should get going now that we're both ready." Matt gets off the couch.

"Do you want anything?" Dani asks Chris as they head for the car.

"Nah, Nick and I will order something. Thanks though."

Once the two were in the car, they look at each other then started to laugh, "Do you feel odd?" Matt asks her,

"Actually, yes and no. Do you get what I mean? This is normal for us but it's the reason this time." She explains a bit and he knew what she meant and agreed.

"Now, put this on." He holds out a blindfold.

"Are you serious?" She looks down at it.

"Yep."

She takes it from him and puts it on, "I feel so stupid."

The ride wasn't too long and when they got to where their date was Dani asked if she could take off the blindfold. Matt tells her yes and she sees they were at Dave and Buster's causing her to laugh.

"I feel like this is a perfect first date for us." She gives him a smile.

"You aren't disappointed?" He was a bit nervous.

"I get food and games, Matt. Like I said, it's perfect."

Inside they decide to eat first and order pizza, which was no shocker for them. While they eat Dani takes a picture of Matt as he smiles holding a slice up. He even does the same with her and her slice of pizza.

"You ready for me to kick your ass at games?" Matt gives her a big smile.

"You aren't gonna let me win on our first date? Wow, some gentleman you are." She laughs at him, "Let's go!" She jumps up and they have a speed walking race to the arcade. "I do appreciate you using your money. Even though I'm capable of using mine to play."

"Don't be ridiculous, Dani."

They play a few little games without getting competitive but as soon as they start playing against each other they have a lot more fun. "Where the hell did you come from?" He shouts a bit as they were playing a Mario Cart Race. "No, no, no." He reaches over to turn her wheel.

"Hey, back off!" She smacks his hand away as she wins the race, "Ha, loser!"

"Oh, really? Let's see you beat me in basketball then." He motions over to the hoops.

"I won't even make it over the plastic. That's unfair." She whines as he gets up going over to it, "You suck ass." She follows him and of course he got the higher score.

"Don't pout. You have won more games than me. Let me have this one." He wraps his arms around her making them walk over to a different game.

When they started to get tired they do one last thing before heading home which was the photo booth. They just hoped that they would get good backgrounds for their photos. First; Dani gets on Matt's back and they both make a funny face. Second; Matt wraps his arms over Dani's shoulders leaning down and they both smile. Third; they both pose like they were gonna fight each other. And the fourth was them standing super close with Matt smiling down at Dani holding her face in his hands while she smiled up at him.

By the time they got home, Nick and Chris ask how dinner was and how much did Matt make her spend. They just flip it saying he made her spend a shit ton at Dave and Busters. As they each go to their rooms to change they also place their photos on their computer desks.

"Nick went to bed because he has a headache and Chris went to go play Fortnite." Matt tells Dani as she comes up the stairs joining him in the kitchen.

"Thank you for tonight. I had fun." She nudges him as they stand next to each other messing with their drinks.

"You're welcome. Was it the best first date you ever had?" He nudges her back.

"It was."
