Evan smiled. "Elle, has anyone ever told you that you're really cute?"
"Evan, has anyone ever told you that you don't have to say silly things like that to me? I'm already your girlfriend."
He laughed. "I really like you, Elle. I mean... We've been dating for more than a month now, which is pretty serious."
"Yeah, I suppose it is," I said. "I've never had a boyfriend before."
"Me neither," he said. I stuck my tongue out at him.
'"This is so great."
"It really is. This is one of the best movies I've ever seen."
"You made pretty good popcorn, too."
"Thanks."
"Anyway, I think we should celebrate six weeks since something crazy has gone down in this town."
"I agree," he said. "Sounds great."
"Elle, dear," said my mother, coming in the door. "Oh, hello Evan. Kids, I was just at Granny's, and guess what I overheard?"
"Mom, you are not getting us wrapped up in something else that is going on in Storybrooke! You're not, right?"
"Elowena, listen to your mother for a change. Anyway, some people might be coming to town."
"That's great for them," I said. "Mom, what happened to normal life?"
"Sweetie, when strange...er people are in town, life is never really normal. I just think we should be prepared, is all."
"She's probably right," said Evan. "Being prepared is good. I'll go talk to my parents."
I sighed. "Alright, Evan. See you later."
He left, and I glared at my mom. "Mom, you chased away my boyfriend!"
"I know," she replied. "Added bonus."
"Mom!"
"You two are too young to be dating. Just be friends! It works out better anyway."
"I am not listening to this speech again." I went up to my room.
