"Jay, I need you to help me, not stare at shirtless pictures of your boyfriend." I groaned. "Alright, calm those boobs." He replied, getting up. I rolled my eyes, and sighed. "What do you think about this?" I asked, holding up a pink dress. "Pink? Do you want to show him you're still seven?" He replied. "Take that as a no." I laughed, putting the dress back in my closet. "How about this one?" I asked, showing a short purple dress. He smiled, and nodded. "White shoes." He smiled. I laughed.

"How do I look?" I asked, as I spun around. "Bells, you do realize you're going out with your brother." Jason said. "Actually... my brother cancelled yesterday." I replied. "What! Bella, who are you going out with!" He yelled. "Some guy I met at work yesterday. Thanks to my waitressing, I met this guy." I replied. "Did you tell Harry?" He asked. "He's dating Shauna again. He doesn't care what I do." I replied.

"So, you're just going on a date, with a guy you met yesterday, and you barely know him." Jason said, knitting his eyebrows together. "Um, didn't I do that with you?" I asked. "But that was like, three years ago, before I came out. And before you had a love triangle." He replied. "I do not have a love triangle." I snapped. He rolled his eyes.

"Hi, Bella." My date smiled. "Mason, hey." I smiled back, getting into his car. "So, I have an amazing night planned. We go to a restaurant. After, we take a nice long walk in the park. And we get to know each other." He said. "That sounds amazing." I smiled.

We just finished dinner, and now we're in the park. We walked hand in hand, Mason's jacket, covering my shoulders. "Twenty Questions? I go first?" Mason asked. I smiled, and nodded. "What's your full name?" He asked. "Isabella London Foster." I replied. "What's your full name?" I asked. "Mason Thomas Summers." He replied. "What's your favorite animal?" He asked. "A panda." I replied.

"Okay, a little bit of a personal question here, but... How many relationships have you been in?" Mason asked. "Um, not many. I had one, when I was fifteen. And that one lasted about.... three years. We were very serious. But... it wasn't a healthy relationship. He abused me. And cheated on me. And I stayed, because I loved him." I replied. "Wow." He breathed. I nodded.

"And... I recently got out of a relationship. He were kind of serious. There were a few pregnancy scares. And actually... one of those scares came true. But... I lost the baby about a month into the pregnancy. And after that, we broke up." I said. "So, you got pregnant, and lost the baby, and you two broke up?" He asked. I nodded. "Usually guys leave after I tell that story. They don't want to get involved with my weird, dramatic life." I laughed. "So, feel free to go." I sighed.

"Hey, why would I want to leave?" He asked. "Because... I told you about my pregnancy, and how dramatic I am." I sighed. "Pregnancy, isn't bad, Bella. What you went through, is terrible. Being in an abusive relationship, getting cheated on. Dating your boss. Losing his baby. Breaking up with him. It's hard." He said. "How did you know?" I asked. "I do read. I don't care about that stuff though. You're a smart, beautiful girl, who has an amazing personality." He smiled. I looked at him, and smiled.

"So, I understand you're a dancer." He smiled. "I am. I just got accepted back into an academy." I replied. "Well, I can't wait until I get to see you dance." He smiled. "And I can't wait until I see you sitting front row." I smiled back. He leaned forward, as did I.

"Bella!" Someone yelled. We both pulled away, and looked behind me. "Harry, what the hell are you doing here?" I asked. "Jason called me. Told me your brother cancelled on you, and now you're on a date. Why didn't you tell me?" Harry said, walking to us. "Harry, go home." I sighed. "Why didn't you tell me?" He repeated. "Just go home. We had a good night." I replied. "Fine. I'll go, but, if you hurt her, I'll find you." Harry pointed at Mason.
