Mabel paced nervously in her room with her brunette hair brushed and her Will Cipher sweater and star earrings. Tonight was the night...Mabel Pines first date with Will Cipher.

*Cue theme song*

She felt a variety of emotions: Excited, nervous, happy....she quickly went to find Wendy for some first date advice.

"Oh Hey Mabel, tonight's your date with Will right?" "You look amazing!" Wendy greeted looking up from her magazine and scanning the younger teens outfit.

"Thanks!" "Um Wendy...you went on a first date with Robbie right?" Mabel asked hesitantly. Wendy smiled. "Sure, it wasn't all that bad, pretty fun actually." "You nervous?" She understandably asked.

Mabel nodded biting her lip. "A little...I've always had bad luck with boys and never actually went on a first date..What if I mess it up and have Will hate me?" She mused clasping her hair.

"Mabel, your an awesome girl, I know for a fact Will loves you more than anything and is probably even more nervous than you, it's probably his first date too." Wendy assured offering a smile.

Mabel beamed and crushed Wendy in a hug. "Thanks!" "I knew I could count on you!" She cherred. Wendy laughed and replied, "No problem Dude, enjoy your date!" She encouraged with a wink.

Mabel nodded and hurried to grab her present for Will. She had made him a new hat with another flower since his was falling apart.

Meanwhile, Will was outside frantically thinking of what to wear. He decided on the sweater Mabel had knitted him. Quickly polishing his shoes, he rushed to find his hat.  As he was floating around in a panic, he flew straight into Ford causing him to fall back.

"Oh, My sincerest apologies Stanford, I didn't mean to bump into you!" Will stammered helping him up.

Ford gave a small laugh. "Oh that's all right, are you ready for your date with Mabel?" He inquired brushing off his glasses.

Will turned a bright mix of pink, yellow, orange and purple. Ford gave a concened look and simply replied, "Your exited, nervous, happy and can't wait to see her?" He guessed.

"Yes...to be honest, I love Mabel so much...I've never been on a date and have no idea what to say!" "I've bought her some of her favorite gummy koalas and wrapped it.." Will explained.

"She loves those!" Ford commented smiling. "And don't worry Will, your a good person and Mabel is a great girl...You'll be perfectly fine!" He assured.

Will looked up. "Have you ever been on a dictar date?" He asked with a small smile.

"I've...never met a girl or went on a date so I can't help you there, but I do know just be reflection to be kind to the girl and everything Will go smoothly!" Ford promised.

Will glowed a bright yellow in happiness. "Thank you Stanford, for the advice!" "I think I'm ready!" He exclaimed confedintly.

Ford smiled. "I'm glad, have fun and take care of her!" He ordered. "I will!" The demon replied.

As the clock struck 8, Mabel and Will both headed downstairs to leave. They each carried a small box with their gifts.

"You look beautiful Pumpkin!" Stan said getting teary eyed at his niece growing up. Mabel hugged him. "Are you crying Grunkle Stan?" She teased. He quickly wiped his eyes. "No, course not!" "I got glitter in my eye!" He protested making everyone laugh.

"Where you dudes going?" Soos asked emerging from the desk. Mabel and Will exchanged glances and simultaneously replied, "The Greasy Diner!" They smiled.
