    Dennis was on his 16th birthday, and he could feel it, his body was a bit stressed from his puberty, which messed him up more with his dhampyr genes.

    "Ugh, i hate all this!" He said popping another pimple.

    "Be careful Denise o vich, you'll scar yourself." Dracula warned as he held the mirror.

    "I can't believe i agreed to a date with Winnie, on my birthday!" He said shaking his head as he puffed his hair up more.

    "You know, she's really excited, maybe today will be the day you finally zing." Mavis teased.

    "Ugh, mom, don't you have a husband?" Dennis chuckled as Vlad fixed his tie.

    "Okay, PERFECT!" Vlad said. "Now get out there and make me a great great grandpa!"

    "Grandpa Vlad!" Dennis whined.

    "Don't worry, if something bad happens we'll give you a phone call to get you out." Mavis said assuredly.

    "Don't." Dennis said rolling his eyes

    Dennis walked downstairs to meet Winnie at the front door.

    "Wow." He accidentally said out loud.

    She was dressed in a similar flower dress to the one she wore as a little girl on his last birthday, her hair was brushed and pulled back in a sleek smooth mane, and she appeared to be wearing perfume.

    "Wow indeed," She said rubbing a hand up his arm. "And i . . . Are you wearing cologne?"

    "Uh, well, maybe," Dennis said sweating as he let himself be sniffed.

    Winnie sniffed around his neck making him extremely nervous.

    "Such a nice cologne, Zing." She said kissing his chin while he looked upwards.

    "Shouldn't the goodnight kiss be after -cough- the uh date?" Dennis asked looking outside to see the sun lowering.

    "Since you rarely take a kiss yourself, i savor every kiss i can get." Winnie said rubbing a paw on his chest.

    "HEY! Get a room!" Griffin called gaining him a gibbs from his invisible lover.

    Dennis chuckled and pulled lightly at his collar.

    "After you." He said holding the door open.

    Winnie bowed jokingly and went outside where she lead him to the car.

    After a long drive Dennis and Winnie arrived at a restaurant named Cafe La Amonster.

    "Fancy." She said after he opened the door.

    "I spare no expense for you Winnie." Dennis said kissing her hand.

    After obtaining a table and seats, Dennis chose to look at his menu, while Winnie simply rested her head on her hands with a big smile on her face.

    "Not gonna happen." Dennis said knowing if he looked up he might zing.

    Winnie however wouldn't have this, not today, he was 16 and so was she.

    "Dennis, look at me, i love you, you love me, look me in the eyes, i beg you because I CAN'T TAKE IT!" She said trying to keep to her inner voice.

    Dennis gulped, Winnie was never this angry with him.

    "I'm scared." Dennis said.

    "Why?" Winnie asked desperate for the look she craved.

    "This is my only chance and it needs to be perfect, i think we deserve that." Dennis said not even registering the words on the menu.

    "Dennis, it's not marriage, and i'm not asking you to make love, i want to see the love in your eyes, i have waited, and i think tonight is the night you stop fighting." She said with a stern look that Dennis refused to eye.

    He sighed however and put down his menu, still looking down he took a deep breath, and brought his head up, but before his eyes could meet hers, a rumbling met his pockets.

    "Oh yeah, mom." He thought as he fished for his phone.

    As he opened the phone he was confused, instead of his mother's voice was a rumble of voices before Mavis's voice came strong.

    "Dennis, i'm not joking you gotta get down here now." Mavis said, too which Dennis interpreted as the excuse he was supposed to give Winnie, so he simply hung up.

    Winnie was tapping her fingers on the table impatiently.

    "Sorry i-" Dennis said before his phone rang again.

    "Mom we talked about-" Dennis said before his mother cut him off.

    "It's not that," She said urgently. "It's Tinkles."
