There once was a girl named Penny. Penny was a typical teenager as she loved hanging out with friends, going to the mall, and also had a huge crush on the hottest boy at school, Ryan. She lived on a farm with her parents and her three little brothers, Drake, Josh, and Kevin, who were brats. One day, her dream of being asked to go on a date with Ryan came true.
When her best friend, Aaron, whom she had been friends with ever since they were four years old, heard the news, he said to Penny, "Do not go on a date with that guy. I've heard from others that he's a real jerk."
Penny replied, "Oh, you're just jealous because you don't have a date, but I'm pretty sure there is a girl for you out there."
It was not that Aaron could not find any girls. He was a "chick magnet", as Penny would call him whenever he visited her farm, because he seemed to attract chickens even when he tried to run away from them. The reason he did not have a date was because he liked Penny more than just a friend, but like a girlfriend. Of course, Penny was oblivious to this fact, and she did not feel the same way.
That night, after milking the cows and collecting chicken eggs, she took a nap before her date. While she was sleeping, Josh got out her favorite dress and drew pictures on it with a permanent marker. Drake and Kevin made the situation better by tying her shoes together and putting 'I'm stoopid' on her face with the same marker Josh used to make his masterpiece.
When she awoke, she was about to get out of bed but then she saw her dress sprawled out on her dresser with stick people and scribbles clearly from a distance. "Mom!" She yelled, furious, knowing Josh must have done it. "Look at what Josh did to my $400 dress!" Trying to get out of bed, she did not realize that her shoes were tied together. Wondering why she felt a tugging at her ankles, she finally managed to get off her bed. She then tried walking, "Whoa!" she said right before she fell on the hard, wooden floor.
Her mom came in, "Penny, are you alright?" She asked. "Honey, your shoes are tied together," Penny's mom added. "You don't say?" Penny said sarcastically, even though she was not aware of it at first. "Mom, look at what these little idiots did to my dress! If I can't wear this dress, then my life is over!"
"Penny!" Penny's mom said to her, "Do not call your brothers idiots, and I think you want to look in the mirror."
Penny's eyes grew wide, and went to the mirror. "Ahhhh! You little brats!" Penny screamed throughout the house.
*One hour later*
Penny arrived at Ryan's house, and rang the doorbell. She was wearing a pretty tank top and her favorite pair of jeans. She managed to wash off most of the kind message her brothers put on her face. Two minutes passed, and just as Penny was about to leave, Ryan finally opened the door. "Hey baby! What'cha doing?" Ryan asked. Penny was about to reply when she realized he was actually talking to his phone. "No, I ain't doing anything tonight. I miss you, too. Well, don't worry. We'll see each other tomorrow. Look, I'll text ya later, Christina." Penny knew her because they were friends. "Got to go, bye!" Ryan then put his iPhone back in his pocket.
"Christina?" Penny thought, "Why is he talking to her? She's in Chicago with her parents at a funeral. Well, maybe they're related, but why did he call her baby?"
Ryan looked at Penny with disgust. "Geesh, you look like you have Ebola." Ryan said. Penny looked over herself, thinking that she looked fine, except for the faded 'I'm stoopid' on her face. Ryan then sniffed the air, looking like someone let off a huge stinkbomb. "Pew, what stinks so much?"
Penny replied saying, "I live on a farm, and I accidently stepped on cow poop on my way over here, but it doesn't bother me." Ryan, looking bored, said, "Whatever, let's get outta here!"
The next morning, Penny was in her bed. She was so tired yet she could not find how to sleep. Her wet eyes were red as she pondered on the details of the worst date in her life. She remember how Ryan would be texting on his stupid iPhone whenever she would attempt to have them get to know each other better, but it seemed that he wanted to know that dumb waitress, Anna, better. Also, Christina was actually his girlfriend, or now ex-girlfriend. Christina found out though Ryan's mom that he had been seeing other girls behind her back and will not even speak to Penny. The worst part of the date to Penny was when he left with Anna, the waitress.
Penny called Aaron over for support. "Hey," Aaron said to Penny when he arrived, "I've heard about the date. I'm sorry that he was a jerk."
Penny replied saying, "No, you were right about him. I should've listened to you. I am so dumb."
"No, you're not," Aaron told her.
"Why are you always so kind to me, or there for me even in the darkest of times?" Penny asked to Aaron. "Because you are my best friend, and I care about you," Aaron replied.
"But you're always so sweet and charming and..." Penny slowly leaned towards Aaron and kissed him passionately on the lips. "Sorry," Penny told him. "Don't be," Aaron said to her, smiling, "I've been wanting you to do that for a very long time."
Ten years later, Penny and Aaron were married, and had two kids named Ariane and Paul. Penny's three little brothers grew up to be fine, young gentleman. Josh even paid Penny for the $400 dress he ruined as a little kid. Penny and Aaron looked out into the sunset with their lovely and (almost) never rambunctious kids, in a beautiful house, in a small but nice town, and they believed that their lives could never be anymore perfect than it was at that moment.
At that same time, not far away from their home, Ryan lived in his parents basement and was a fat, lazy slob with five ex-wives, Anna was the first one. Ryan was now unattractive and was virtually undateable. The next day, Anna's sister, Elsa, decided to pay him a visit and no one ever saw him again.
