Two Sides One School

First Dates

Mal was sitting at her kitchen table, then there was a knock at the door.

"Mal honey will you get that?" Her mom asked.

Mal rolled her eyes, then got up and walked over. When she opened it Harry was standing there. She stepped out and shut the door behind her.

"What are you doing here?" Mal asked.

"I wanted to talk about our plans for tonight." Harry responded.

"Why can't we talk about this later in the day?" Mal wondered.

"Because I couldn't wait. I wanted to see you now." Harry confessed.

"Harry..." Mal was going to say, but paused.

"Look I know I'm nothing like Ben, but I want to make you happy." Harry explained to her.

"Just give me an hour, then we'll meet back up." Mal instructed.

"You got it." Harry nodded.

After he walked away Mal turned around and went back inside. She was about to walk upstairs, but was stopped.

"Who was that?" Her dad asked.

"It's just a friend." Mal lied.

"Mal..." He was going to say.

"What?" Mal asked.

"Nothing. Never mind." He shook his head.

Mal rolled her eyes, then ran upstairs to her room.

(An hour later)

Mal walked out of her house and Harry was sitting on the rocking chair on her porch.

"Hey. I'm ready." Mal spoke.

Harry casually looked over, but his jaw basically dropped when he saw her. "Y-you look... Beautiful." 

"Why thank you. You don't look half bad yourself. But honestly I just threw something on." Mal told him.

"Doesn't matter. You still look beautiful." Harry said. 

Mal was smiling and admiring him, then came out of it. "So what's the plan for today?" 

"Anything that we want to do." Harry answered.

"You don't have a plan, do you?" Mal checked.

"No I don't." Harry replied. "Sorry."

"Don't be. This is gonna be fun." Mal said smirking at him.

"Audrey! Ben is here!" Audrey's mom called up. "Why don't you come in."

"Thank you, Mrs. Beauty." Ben smiled and nodded, then walked in.

A few minutes later Audrey came down wearing a sun dress. 

"Oh honey. I knew that would look beautiful on you." Audrey's mom spoke.

"Yeah. You look amazing." Ben stared at her.

"Thank you both." Audrey said as she walked down the last step.

"We should get going before it gets crowded." Ben mentioned.

"Where are we going?" Audrey wondered.

"You'll see." Ben smiled.

"Okay you two have fun." Audrey's mom said to them as they were leaving.

"Bye Mom." Audrey waved to her as she shut the door behind her.

Evie was laying on her bed scrolling through Instagram. Then she saw a picture of Ben from Audrey's account. She was looking at him, then she got a message on Instagram. She clicked on it and saw it was Doug.
