Second Chances

Dr. George's Background

Hana walked into the kitchen during dinner, grabbed her sister's arm and dragged her to the living room.

"What?!" Nico demanded.

"I... have a date." Hana whispers.

"Who's the unlucky man?" Nico asked.

"Dr. George." Hana replies.

"Okay, so not unlucky, if mom chokes he'll save her." Nico smirks. "Are you back together?"

"I have no idea..." Hana frowns.

"Do you want to?" Nico sighs.

Hana shrugs.

"Okay," Nico nods, "I don't think I'm the right person to talk to about this. So mom?"

"Yes?" Tina turns around.

Hana glares at Nico, "I hate you."

"Yeah, okay," Nico sighs, "at least, it wasn't dad..."

"Huh?" Robert asked.

"Oh my God," Hana rolls her eyes, "stop name dropping."

"What is it?" Tina asked.

"I have a date," Hana admitted, "and before you say anything, please no chaperons..."

"Chaperon?" Nico questioned.

"Oh yes, chaperon," Hana nods, "my last date was chaperoned."

"You're kidding? How old were you? 11?" Nico asked.

"Three months ago..." Hana frowned.

Nico burst out laughing, "Are you serious?! Did he at least sneak a kiss?"

"Oh he asked me to marry him..." Hana informed.

"In front of them?"

"And the whole Pride..."

"What you say?"

"I bolted..." Hana sighs.

"Then she got home and baked..." Robert added.

"800,000 batches of cookies." Tina ended.

"Damn, when you get stress you go above and beyond in baking." Nico looked at her sister.

"Well, I have a date..." Hana pointed towards the staircase, "Ima go get ready for that..." Hana ran upstairs and into her room.

"When are we meeting his parents?" Nico asked, as she opened the bedroom door.

Hana turned to her sister, "Um... George's parents died in a car accident. He grew up in his grandmama's care; him and his younger sister." Hana sat on the bed, "He was the winner of the Minoru Scholarship fund..."

"Are you serious?!" Nico shocked.

Hana smiles.

"So," Nico sighs, "he didn't only won the scholarship but the Minoru princess, as well?"

Hana frowned, "I am not a prize to be won." Hana's eyes glanced at the window by her bed, "The reason we've kept our relationship from the family is because of that exact reason; we've endured those taunts in school and from other people, but if someone in the family joined in the taunts it would probably break us up." Hana looked at her sister, "I told you, because a week after tomorrow, George and I are planning on introducing Grandma Tatiana to Fiyero and Elphaba."
