Chapter 1:

"We totally destroyed the Trix" Stella said jubilantly. Stella, the Specialists, and the other Winx Club members had just finished a pretty epic battle that had resulted with Icy nearly drowning. Stella,Bloom,Flora,Aisha, and Musa were talking loudly and proudly of their victory. Techna was walking a good distance behind them. "Hey Techna" came a voice behind her. She turned around. It was Timmy, one of the Specialists. And her crush. On her home planet,Zenith, emotion wasn't expressed. It wasn't exactly a loveless planet, but emotions played no roles in peoples lives. Techna also couldn't read emotions, so she had always been curious to as wether or not Timmy liked her. "Techna" he began, "I have something I've been wanting to show you for quite a while now. I was wondering if you would go out with me." Techna felt her face flush red. "You mean like on a date?" "Yeah" Timmy said. His face was also rather red. "Sure, what time?" Timmy beamed. "Actually it's a surprise date. I can't give you any details." Techna stared at him in shock. "Then how am I supposed to know what to wear or when to get there?" Timmy smiled at her. "Your smart. You'll figure it out."

"What's wrong Techna?" Aisha asked. Techna's head had been spinning since her conversation with Timmy. Techna repeated her conversation with Timmy. Stella gasped. "I can't believe it!" she exclaimed. "Oh Techna, I'm so happy for you." Aisha raised her eyebrows. "Don't you think it's weird that Timmy wouldn't share the details of the date with you?" "Yeah" Techna admitted. "Maybe you shouldn't go" Bloom suggested. "No I'm going" Techna said firmly. "It would be rude, and besides I kinda really want to go." Flora passed Techna her phone. "Call us. For any reason what so ever." Stella gave a great sigh of impatience. "Not that we've gotten that out of the way, Techna prepared to be m ade over!"

Half an hour later, Techna looked in the mirror. She was wearing a purple assymmetric dress, her eyelids were purple, her lips and cheeks were a rosy pink, and she was wearing purple strappy sandles. "Thanks, guys" Techna said. She twirled in the mirror. Aisha was on the porch. "Hey girls" she called, " I think I see Timmy waiting by the gate." Techna raced for the door. "Have fun!" the Winx Club shouted after her.

Techna had just entered the main hall when she ran into Ms. Faragonda. "Techna" the elderly fairy gushed " you look nice. What's the occasion?" "I have a date with a Specialist." "Where are you going?" Techna bit her lip. She repeated her conversation with Timmy once again. Miss Faragonda frowned. "Be careful,Techna. Those boys can be unpredictable at times. Fortunately, what Timmy said is true; you are smart. If he hurts you or tries to hurt you, do whatever you have to defend yourself." Techna nodded. "But all the same" Miss Faragonda said "try to have a good time."

Sure enough, Timmy was waiting at the metal entrance to Alfea College. Thanks to the light of the torches surrounding the gate,Techna saw Timmy blush bright pink when he saw her. "Techna" he gushed "you look beautiful." It was Techna's turn to blush. "Thanks" she said. "You look really nice, too." "Thanks" he said. He offered his arm. "Shall we?"
