Dani.

I listened to the sound of the forks hitting the plates.

This is an awkward dinner.

*clink.*

*clink.*

*clin-*

"Screw it , I'm eating upstairs."I got up and went to my room.

I ate whatever the hell mom cooked up in my bedroom.

My balcony doors opened. "What the fuck is that?"He referred to the food.

I shrugged. "I dunno."

I put it on my bedside table. "To what do I owe your presence?"

"You're not british."

"Who said I wasnt? I could be a spy."

"You're not a spy."

"You don't know that."

"You're not very secretive."

I rolled my eyes and chuckled.

He sits beside me.

"No seriously , what do you want?"I ask.

He looks at me. "Um .. Well.. Actua-"

"Matt , spit it out."

He sighs and turns towards me.

"Iwantedtoknowifyou-"

"Woah , slowww down."

"This isn't easy for me , Dani."

I chuckled. "Whatever you're gonna say can't be that hard."

"I was wondering if you would go to the fall dance."

Woah.

Woah.

OKAY.

I smiled. "Yes."

He smiled and hugged me.

I chuckled. "When even is it?"

"Um , three weeks."

I nodded.

My door bursts open.

I jump and look at Kat.

"I heard."

"Well , I'd hope you weren't deaf."

She rolls her eyes. "I heard about the dance!!"

"Calm down , it's just a dance."

"Does your mom even know he asked you."

"No , but-"

"EM!!!"She yelled.

Oh , they're on a first name basis.

Swell.

Mom walks in. "Yes.?"

"Your daughter has a date to the dance!"

Her eyes widened. "What?! With who?"

"Matt."Kat says.

Mattie walks in. "Can you like , not yell.?"

"Dani and Matt are going to the fall dance!"Kat exclaims.

"What? What the hell? When was this?"

"Earlier."I say.

"We have to go shopping."Kat says.
