Erica's POV:

I was sitting on my bed thinking about that nightmare. I was worried Ben and my friends would think I was acting weird when I was nicer. But my fear of losing Ben won and I decided they'd just have to deal with it. I was shaking and I was really nervous. What if Ben... doesn't like me anymore? I pushed that thought out of my mind. I got out of bed and put on one of my black jumpsuits and brushed my teeth. I slid a teal scrunchie and a plain black hair tie on my wrist in case I needed my hair up later. I had just finished brushing and fixing my hair, that had become a golden blonde just like Ben's had, when I heard a knock on my door. I walked out of the bathroom and opened the door to see golden hair and bright green eyes staring at me. I smiled.

"Hey Ben! What's up?" I smiled back and took a deep breath. Why did he take a deep breath? Is he... He ran his right hand through his hair and left it behind his neck.

"Nothing much. I just really want to ask you something." Ask me what?

"Okay? You wanna come in?" he paused a second and answered,

"Uh, sure. That'd be great." We both walked across the room and sat on my bed. "So, I... I really like you and wondered if you'd go on a date with me?" I blushed. My mind was racing and screaming 'YESSS!!!'

"I...um... tha.." I stopped and cleared my throat. "I'd love to." his smile grew.

"Really?" I nodded.

"Really." he hugged me.

"Thanks." I couldn't have been happier. Unfortunately my grandpa texted us and we had to go. "Well, looks like we're checking out some new gear first. Walk with me to the car?" He asked with a hopeful smile.

"Sure." he took my hand and we walked to the car. We sat next to each other and his hand was in mine the whole time. I was thrilled.

Here's number 3!
