Unexpected

Going Out?

Clark's class just ended 20 minutes before and now he is currently waiting outside Chemistry Lab 4 on a bench, crossing his fingers over each other as he wait for December's class to end.

▪▪ the night before that ▪▪️

"Hey, Mom." Clark class Mrs. Smith who is currently on the family hall with Mr. Smith

"What is it, Clark?" Mrs. Smith asks

"Is there something wrong?" Mr. Clark asks while reading some articles on his phone

"Well...uhm...you know December right?"

"Yes of course. The girl who visited you yesterday?" Mrs. Smith answers

"Yeah."

"So what about her, sport?" Mr. Smith asks

"Well I was planning on going on a little trip with her but I do not know what girls like to do on a trip or what they want to eat etc. So I was wandering if you could help me out?" Clark asks, sitting on the empty chair in front of the T.V.

Mrs. Smith and Mr.Smith looked at each other with a smile on their faces before looking back at Clark.

"So you want us to tell you what you need to do in order for you to satisfy her on your date tomorrow?"

"Little trip, Mom."

"Okay okay. I order for you to make her happy in your little trip tomorrow you askedd us."

"Yes because you are a couple. So if I am asking for advice then I should ask someone with experience" Clarks tells them

"Listen here, sweetie." Mrs. Smith sits beside Clark.

"You planning something for her is enough to make her happy and I am sure that you asking her out on a da- I mean to go on a little trip with you tomorrow made her happy."

"Just be yourself tomorrow. I know you might have seen this in some romantic so you must be sick of it but trust me. If she likes you, going on a trip with you would be enough to make her happy."

"Wait. I did not tell you that she likes me."

"You did not but your sister did." Mrs. Smith says pointing up to where Marceline's room is

"Just remember what me and your Mother told you also here." Mr. Smith handed Clark a grand, "Use this for your expenses tomorrow but don't use it too much. If you can save some then save some."

"Roger. Goodnight. I love y'all." Clark hugs Mr. And Mrs. Smith before running back to his room.

Now back to the present.

"Just be yourself. Just be yourself, Just be yourself." Clark murmurs while waiting, "This is not helping me calm down at all."

Clark started walking back and forth for a few minutes to calm his nerves down.

"We are not going on a date. We are only going on a little trip together and that's it."

Clark keeps on saying the same thing again and again and again and again while circling back and forth for a few more minutes.

1 hour later Clark is leaning by the railings of a window by the end of the hallway.

"So we will go to this place to do this and that then after that we will be eating here but what if she does not like the food here? Is there another place near here so that we would not go farther?"

If only Clark knew going on a trip would be this stressful he would not have invited December in the first place.
