Part 3

Slippy was in his room as he was running around trying to pick out his best hate and jackets for the double-date with him Fara, Fox, and of course Lena. Fox was sitting their watching the frantic toad as he laughs to himself softly "Calm down dude, or you'll be all worn out before the date even starts, besides its only 6:20 you got plenty of time to get ready" said Fox as he tried to calm Slip down. Slippy sat down and got off his feet for a bit as he sighed softly "I know Fox, it's just that I'm a bit nervous, this will be my first date. Ya know?" said Slippy. Fox smiles "Your Kidding your first date, I mean a tough guy like you, I thought back at the Academy you had to beat them off with a stick" said Fox jokingly as Slip looks back to him a little bit of blush in his red face "That's not funny fox" said Slip as he smiled a bit and looked out the window seeing Solar beginning to drop over the horizon nothing but water as far as the eye can see, the water has been purified some since Andross took control of Zoness. "Sorry Slip, Don't worry man I'm sure she is just as nervous as you are about the whole date thing," said Fox as he put his hand on his friend shoulder Slip nods and looks up to Fox and smiles.

"I'm so nervous, Dingo-kun" said Lena as she looked out the window, "Hey there is nothing to be shy about, I mean it probably the first date for him to, I know it can be a nerve racking but ya gotta remember, Slippy is the one trying to impress you, right," said Dingo reassuringly as he winks at Lena. Lena smiled at her friend and Captain "I know, I just don't want him to think he has to go above and beyond to please me, I mean I like Slippy-Chan a lot he doesn't have to do anything big to get my love or attention" said Lena as she walked over to Dingo and looked down at him "Well if you don't mind Captain, I need to get ready," she said with a smile on her beck. Dingo smiles as he stand up and looks to Lena and hugs his child-hood friend softly "Don't worry Lena, you'll be fine, trust me it always has worked in the past" said Dingo reassuringly as he then lets go of Lena and walks out of her quarters. Lena then smiles as she looks at her self in the mirror blushing softly as she thinks about Slippy.

The 8th hour came but it felt like 3 year to Slippy and Lena as Fox and Fara stand outside Slip's room as the toad then walk out wearing his casual cloths and his best hat, as Fox nodded and Fara smiled at him. "Okay I'm ready let go pick Lena up" Said Slippy as he smiled to his friends and they walked down the Hall heading towards Lena's Quarters. They soon get to the door as Fox smiles and looks down at Slippy, "Go ahead Slip," said Fox and Slippy nodded and rung at the small door bell. Inside Lena heard the door bell ring as she sighed and nodded and walked to door, as Slippy stood on the other side a little anxious as he waited for her to come out. The door opened as Lena as Slippy's eyes opened up wider looking at her, she was dressed in casual, and wearing a bit of light make-up, as Slip then said to her a bit nervously, blush coming to his cheeks as he stutters a little bit "You l..l..look g…great" said Slip as he looked down blushing a deep red. Lena smiled, blushing some herself as she Lena close to Slippy and whispers in to his ear "So do you Slippy-Chan" she said as she then give him a small peck on the cheek. This make Slippy blush more as Fara giggles softly at them and Fox just stand their smiling, "Well you two, let go okay" said Fox as Slippy and Lena turn to him both of their faces are red.
