Good Morning! Enjoy the update! As always, I don't own Doctor Who or its' characters and thank you to Luxturna for editing! P.S. For those of you who want more with the Doctor, he will be back in chapter 30 & 31 (possibly 32...not sure yet) and 34 & 35

Chapter 28

As the year went on and drew to a close, Melody and Brandon became closer and closer. They ate lunch together everyday and sat together during every class they were both in. It was no secret that the two fancied each other, but Brandon was too shy to ask Melody out and Melody was unsure of if her parents would even let her date, so they settled for spending all their time during school together.

After school ended, Brandon came over to the Pond's house everyday to hang out with Melody. Her parents didn't mind, and the two of them usually spent their time in the backyard climbing the tree or playing catch. Brandon and Melody grew to like each other a little more everyday and towards the end of summer, Brandon finally popped the question as they were sitting on a tree branch.

"Hey, Melody. I was thinking, and if you aren't doing anything tomorrow night, maybe we could go and grab a bite to eat together? Then maybe go see a movie?"

Melody smiled. "Like as a date?"

"Well, uh, yeah. Like a date." Brandon ducked his head bashfully.

"Of course I'll go with you!"

"Great! So I'll pick you at 6?"

"It's a date!" Melody grinned as she started climbing down the tree.

Brandon made his way down the tree, and the two bid each other a good night. Melody practically ran to her mum, grinning like a goofball.

"What're you so happy about?" Amy grinned.

"Oh, nothing." Melody smiled mischievously.

"Tell me!" Amy exclaimed excitedly.

"Brandon asked me out for tomorrow night! Can I go, Mum? Please please please!" Melody bounced up and down on the sofa.

"Oh, I don't know." Amy grinned evilly.

Melody playfully hit her mum's arm. "Come on, please! I'll even let you and dad take pictures before we leave!"

"Okay, okay you can go, what time are you leaving?"

"6, but the movie's at 7:30. We're going to grab a bite to eat before the movie."

"Be home by 10:30, okay?"

Melody nodded and gave her mum a hug and a kiss as a thank you.

The next evening, Melody could be found pulling out almost all her clothes out of her closet trying to find an outfit to wear. She was making such a racket, stomping around and blaring her music that Amy came in to see what she was doing.

"Melody, what on Earth is going on up here?" Amy asked as she stepped over multiple clothes.

"I don't have anything to wear!" Melody sighed like a melodramatic teenager.

Amy smirked. She remembered those days well. Trying to find the perfect outfit and wanting to look as nice as possible. "Go do your makeup or something. I'll find you something to wear."

Melody went to the bathroom and did her hair and makeup. When she returned, she found a blue jean mini skirt and a short sleeved, red blouse sitting on her bed. At the foot of her bed were a small pair on black, strappy, heels.

Melody smiled excitedly. "Thanks!"

"You're welcome. Now clean up this mess and turn the music down some!" Amy left Melody to get ready.

Melody cleaned up her clothes and then got dressed. She grabbed her purse and was about to leave with she saw a thing of lipstick and a perfume bottle sitting on her dresser. Curious, she went over and saw that her mom had placed them there for her. Melody put on the light red shade of lipstick, stuck it in her purse and then sprayed the perfume sparingly.

Melody heard the doorbell ring. She glanced down at her watch and saw it was only 5:45, confused she went to see who it was. She smacked her forehead when she saw that her dad had answered it and was talking to Brandon who had arrived early.

"Hey, Brandon. Ready to go?" Melody interrupted the two, hoping that they would stop talking before her dad said something embarrassing.

Brandon looked up at the steps and spotted Melody. "Wow. Mels, you look amazing!" Brandon pulled out the four red roses he was holding, "Umm, these are for you."

Melody walked down the steps and grabbed the roses. "Thank you." She put the roses in a vase of water and then turned to hi, ready to leave.

"Wait! You promised we could take pictures!" Amy came running around the corner before Melody could sneak off.

Melody groaned and gave Brandon an apologetic glance. They took a few pictures in various poses, before Melody said that they had to go or they'd miss the movie.

They ran out after Brandon promised that she'd be home by 10:30. His mom drove them to a small diner and dropped them off. The diner was in the same complex area as the movie theater so the two of them went in to eat as his mom drove home with the promise that she'd be back at 9:45. They both ordered a cheeseburger, fries, and soda, but when they were done they decided to split a chocolate shake since they still had time to kill before the movie.

The waiter brought the shake with two bendy straws in it and the two of them smiled as they drank it. When they finished, they walked over to the movies and Brandon grabbed the tickets. They were so full from dinner they decided to forgo the popcorn and just go get seats. They were seeing a scary movie since they both loved them.

About half an hour into the movie Brandon yawned and put his arm around Melody. Melody smiled and leaned into him as they watched the movie. She jumped a few times, and by the end of the movie they were holding hands.

They walked out of the movie happily and his mom drove her home. He walked her to the door and gave her a hug as they bid each other goodnight. Melody came in, closed the door, and sighed happily, unbeknownst to her that Amy was watching her.

"How'd it go? Your dad already went to bed." Amy smirked.

"It was really good. We had a lot of fun and I think we're going to go out again soon." Melody smiled and told her mum goodnight as she went upstairs to bed. She couldn't wait for her next date.
