Dara woke up the next morning at five put on her clothes, and went down stairs and ate breakfast.

"You're up late."JC said.

"I think I'll walk to school with Virgil and Richie."She said.

"Oh yeah, your grandmother said you have a new it that blonde boy?"He asked.

"His name is Richie, and yes, that's him."Dara smiled.

"I think we need to have 'the talk'."JC 'd been fearing this day since Emily died.

"Dad, don't even think about already had the talk with don't even think about having a 'sit down' with Richie.I am able to pick a good guy to you mess this up, I'm kill you, dad or ' my first boyfriend."

"I thought your first boyfriend was that boy from your last school?"JC asked.

"He was not my boyfriend."Dara had told everybody this a zillion boy in question was a young dragon that wouldn't stop following her was nice, but he was also way to young for her, dispite his looks.A dragon's human form aged faster than it's dragon form.

"He followed you around like a dog."Kimberly said, walking into the room.

"I know, but he was not my had a girlfriend anyway.A really nice got married last week."She shrugged, eating her eggs.

"Married?They are so do you know they got married?"JC asked.

"I can't controle what they do, and I got a call from his mother.I sent them a gift when we got here.I got the gift the day I went to that movie."Dara was telling the 's often got married a dragon love was you met your mate you got married to him or her right away, that's just how it is."I have to you after school."Dara kissed her dad on the cheek and went out the door to wait for Virgil and Richie.

Five minutes later she saw Richie walking up the sidewalk, heading toward Virgils house.

"Hi Dara."He said when he saw her.

"Good morning Richie.I thought I'd walk to school with you and Virgil this that okay?"She asked.

"It's okay by me, but I don't know if Virgil would like it."He said, jokingly.

"I'm sure I could persuade guy can resist me."She was only half joking, because no guy could resist she had to, she could make any guy do whatever she said.

Richie shook his and walked up to Virgils knocking, he opened the door and walked right in.

"Virgil we won't be walking alone today."He said to the black-haired boy."Get in here."He said to Dara, the command in his voice all mocking.

"Don't tell me what to do."Dara said, walking up the steps and throught he door."Good morning are you this morning?"She asked to electricly charged boy.

" about you?"He asked back.

"?"The blonde boy looked at her."Have you told him?"She asked.

"Told me what?"Virgil asked.

"I guess better tell him now, or I'll stop."

Richie knew exactly what she was threatening to stop."Virgil, Dara is my girlfriend.I was forced to kiss her last night, then I said yes."Richie shrugged, like it was no big mock punched him in the shoulder."Ow."Well she thought she did.

"How were you forced?"Virgil asked."I'm leaving now."He yelled to his dad.

"Carmicheal said I had to kiss made it clear, I had to kiss I kissed her."Richie shrugged again.

"Don't make me punch you shrugging like it's no big deal."Dara put her hands on her hips.

"Sorry."Richie laughed, as did Dara and put his arm around Dara's leaned into the strong arm.

"Virgil!"They all turned to see Frieda and Daisy, running up to them.

"'s up?"Virgil put his arm around Daisy's shoulders.

"Nothing."She also leaned into Virgil's strong are.

"Hey Richie."Richie turned his head to Frieda.

"Yes?"He asked.

"Why is your arm around Dara?"Frieda asked.

"Can't I put my arm around my girlfriend?"He asked, then smiled at her shocked expression.

Frieda smiled from ear to ear."You two are going out?"She asked.

"Yeah, so?"Dara said, all joking.

"That's we all have dates."Everyone looked at her, confused."Would you all like to go to a movie?You know, have a group date?There's a really good movie playing at the theatre."

"When is this movie?"Dara asked.

"Tomorrow."Frieda replied.

"I can' brother is coming in tomorrow and I have to keep my nieces, Sara and Jessie, entertained."Dara loved her nieces, but she would have loved to go to the movie with them.

"Can we come over?I love kids."Frieda asked.

"I'll have to asked my dad, but to warn you, my nieces can act a little spoiled five year olds, they sure act,...bad."She said, for a lack of a better word.

"That's okay.I still love kids."Frieda shrugged.

"If you say more the you can help, then you can you all like to come?"She asled the others, as they walked into the class room.

"Sure."They all said.

"I'm sure my brother would love to meet you my dad would love to meet you two, as 's already met Virgil and can meet my uncle, Carmicheal and his new fiancee.I have to tell him his plan worked."Dara said.

"What plan?"Richie asked.

"You have to know he planed 's that he's very notices everything, even if you don't notice yourself."Dara shrugged, and sat in her seat to listen to .One again showing her boyfriend up, and laughing her head off, on the inside.
