a quiet ding came into corbyns phone as he was sitting down on his living room couch. he picked up his phone hoping to see a message from ella but it was from his friend owen.

OWEN
hey corbyn! i'm having a christmas party on the 25th (probably not a good day) but i was wondering if you wanted to come?! you can bring a date or whatever you want to call it.

CORBYN
sure! what time?

OWEN
6:30

CORBYN
wait how many people are coming?

OWEN
around 80-100

CORBYN
um that's a lot

OWEN
i guess but my parents don't care. they're going to be out anyways.

CORBYN
ok

CORBYN
well i'll see you then

OWEN
yep!

corbyn set down his phone and looked at the tv in front of him. he thought for a moment. a date? who could he possibly bring? then it hit him.

"ella." he whispered. i got up and ran to, and up the stairs. when he found himself in front ashley's door, he hesitated before knocking on it.

"what do you want?!" his sister yelled from inside.

"help." corbyn answered. he heard her footsteps coming to the door before opening it for him.

"with what?" she asked.

"um, it's uh..." he said scratching his i neck. ashley nodded and motioned for him to come in.

"so who's the girl." ashley asked. corbyn tilted his head to the side and looked at his sister.

"well.. not who you'd think it would be." corbyn said.

"i don't care just who is it?" she snapped at corbyn.

"okay, okay, it's ella." he told ashley throwing his hands up. ashley's jaw dropped when she heard ellas name.

"ella?!" she practically yelled. Ashley shook Her head, almost as if she was disappointed.

"is there something wrong with that?" corbyn asked. " I mean, you don't even know what it's for yet!"

"true..." ashley sighed. "continue talking."

"so, you know owen, right? even if you don't, i don't care anyways, he invited me and a date to his christmas party and i wanted to take ella." corbyn explained.

"oh, okay. you want to ask ella and you don't know how?" ashley stated. corbyn nodded in agreement.

"how should i ask her?" corbyn spoke up.

"don't. just tell her to hang out, pick her up and go. girls love surprises!" ashley exclaimed.

"why didn't i think of that!?" corbyn asked.

"you're corbyn, why would you have thought if that?" ashley said. corbyn looked at her with disbelief in his face. they both started cracking up.

"alright get out of my room now." ashley said in between laughs.

"okay, thanks again." he said getting up and opening the door. when he shut it, a smile formed on his face.

i'm gonna take ella on a date
he thought.
