[A/N: hAHAHAHAA I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT SINCE I STARTED THIS BOOK!]

"H-H-HEY, S-STEVE! C-CAN we, uh... c-can I... uh... c-can I a-ask you s-s-something?!" He squeaks to his friend as they stood in front of his house, Steve by his Vespa.

Steve turns to look at him, looking both confused and amused. "Yeah?"

"U-uh... d-d-do y-you-- doyouwannagoonadatewithme?!"

Steve blinked, frowned a bit and slowly pieced what his friend together before his eyes widened, face going beet red. "No!" He hissed.

"O-oh, o-okay--"

"No! Th-that isn't-- UGH! I-I-I-- I wanted to ask you!!"

All the embarrassment and disappointment Eli had felt flew out the window at this. It was his turn to turn red. "What?"

"I-I... I was going to ask you..." Steve mumbled. "...you beat me to it, though..."

Eli's face was twisted into the giddiest, most wide-eyed, love-stricken expression you will ever find, face split in two his grin was so huge. "So we're going on a date?"

Steve looked up, still red and smiled at his friend (was it just friend now? Huh... they'd figure that out later...). "Yeah, I guess we are..."

Eli giggled a little, cheeks burning up. "O-okay... w-w-well... I h-have t-to go... bye!" He blurts, darting up the steps, a huge grin still etched into his features as he shut the door behind him, sliding down just as Megan had done not-so-long ago. A giggle escaped him.

"Eli?" Megan questioned hopefully, "What happened? Did he say yes?"

Eli giggled again, "Even better-- he was mad I beat him to it!"

Megan squealed, practically flying over, wrapping Eli in a huge hug. "Oh, that's great, Eli!"

Eli continued giggling (he didn't know what else to do, okay?!) until he slowly began calming down. "Hey, Megan?"

"Yeah, Eli?"

"You don't have to hide that you're a Martian from me-- I figured it out a while ago."
