The day finally came. Saturday. The day for Molly's big date. Her first date.
Her alarm went off. She realized what day it was and buried herself back into the covers, "I don't wanna get up.
If I get up, that means the day is started and tonight I'll have to go out. If I go out I'll do something stupid and then Remy will never want to talk to me again."
She heard Kurt's familiar "bamf" sound as he teleported into the room. "Time to wake up! Today's the day," Kurt said, pulling off the covers. "Kurt, what are you doing?! I'm still in my PJs! Get outta here!" Molly grabbed the comforter and pulled it over herself, shoving Kurt out the door. Kurt bumped right into Bobby. "Hey!" Bobby cried. "Sorry. Molly's a little uptight. Tonight's her date," Kurt said.
"Well going into her room uninvited isn't going to help matters. Believe me, I've gotten scars from Jubilee and Amara to prove it. So, she's got a date with Remy, huh?" Bobby said.
"Yeah, there going out to the movies. Kitty said Molly wanted to impress him with this dress she got, but it doesn't look like it's going to happen. I feel kind of bad for her. She likes him, but he just doesn't see it," Kurt replied.
"Oh really? Maybe I could..." Bobby said.
"Bobby, don't do anything. Every time you try to make things better they just end up worse," Kurt warned the helpful boy.
"Aw, who said?" Bobby groaned.
"Scott," Kurt said simply.
"Well Scott doesn't know everything," Bobby walked away. Kurt smiled to himself and went to the kitchen for breakfast.
Back in Molly's room she got ready for the day ahead. The date wasn't until that night so she had plenty of time to plan and to worry. She went down to the kitchen for breakfast. Bobby caught up with her as she was coming down the stairs.
"Uh, hey Molly? I think Remy said he wanted to take you out some place fancy for dinner or something tonight."
"Really? Why did he tell you and not me?" Molly looked confused
"Oops! Maybe he wanted it to be a surprise?" Bobby shrugged.
"But he said he wanted to go to the-" Molly said, but was cut off.
"Hey, would you rather go to the movies and not impress him at all or go out and actually get to know him?" Bobby asked.
"Go out I guess. Why are you so pushy?" Molly said.
"Just trying to help," Bobby was the picture of innocence.
"Sorry. I'm just edgy. Thanks for telling me. I won't say anything about it to him," Molly smiled gratefully.
They reached the kitchen and got breakfast.
Molly saw Kurt talking with Remy. She grabbed the only available seat next to Jamie.
"Morning," Jamie yawned. "'Morning," Molly yawned back, "Ugh. You're making me sleepy, Jamie. Did you stay up late last night?"
"Yeah. I was playing video games with Sam," Jamie responded in a sleepy tone of voice.
"Well at least its Saturday. Uh, Jamie?"
Jamie had fallen asleep face down in his scrambled eggs. "Jamie!" Molly shook him.
"What?!"He jerked up. "Go back to bed, kid. You're a mess," Molly brushed the bits of egg off the boy's face with a napkin. Jamie trudged out of the dining room and back upstairs.
Kurt and Remy sat across from Molly. Not directly across, but a couple seats over.
Students were starting to leave the table so it was getting less noisy.
"That was sweet of you, Molly. Wasn't it, Remy?" Kurt said as he and Remy walked past her.
"Yes it was. You're always very sweet," Remy smiled, ruffling her hair in a friendly way.
"Thanks," Molly smiled.
Remy kept walking and Kurt stayed behind for a moment, "Not the reaction I was hoping for."
"Kurt..." Molly warned.
"Just trying to help," Kurt said.
"Okay, but _everyone's_ just trying to help. Man, people get anymore helpful and I'm going to end up married to the guy!" Molly said.
"I don't think we want to get that far just yet," Kurt laughed. He teleported to the kitchen.
"Yeah right!" Molly called after him.
Molly cleared her plate and went to look for her hair and make-up supplies.
