We arrived back from getting our slushies and some donuts that Beth asked for. And as we entered the house I giggled as Beth rushed to her room to eat her food.

As I shut the door behind me, I noticed that Alex was home with Anthony and Andrew.

"Hey guys!" I exclaimed. "I thought that you guys were staying at Anythony's for the night for a boy style sleepover..." I continue. "We were, but we decided to do it here." Alex spoke up. I nodded and headed upstairs after the girls in my room.

But then I spotted Erik our new friend at church.. "Hey Erik... Sorry for now spotting you..." I say slowly. "Its no problem, but since you did can I ask you something?"

"Sure, you guys can go up I'll catch up.." I tell the girls. They nod and enter my room shutting the door behind them. I walk down the few steps I climbed and stopped in front of Erik. "So you know there's the dance tomorrow and everything and I really wanted to ask Gabi... Can you give me some pointers on how to ask her?"

My mouth literally fell open. Andrew, Anthony, and Alex have the same expression.

"Umm.. Ok.. Give me a second and I'll think of something.." Erik nods. And I start thinking. Gabi really likes chocolate and she likes teddy bears... Well receiving them... She thinks its cute and romantic.. Yup I got it!

"Ok so after thinking for a while I finally got it, so Gabi really likes chocolate, so you need to buy a box of chocolate maybe like in a form of a heart and a bear.. She thinks it's romantic... And boom Gabi says Yes!"

"You would make a good planner at some kind of secret agency." Erik says impressed. I giggle a little and go back upstairs excited to see Gabi be impressed.
