The Mall…

"I look like penguin." Ben said looking in a mirror of an expensive shop. He was wearing a tuxedo.

"No, you look really cute!" Irma exclaimed.

"I don't care whether I look like Brad Pitt or not, I am not wearing that. Plus, you said it was informal." Ben said indignantly walking back in to the changing rooms for the fifth time. Irma sighed. Ben is so difficult; you can't boss him like you can boss Martin. I guess that's I like him. Ben emerged from the changing room wearing his normal things.

"This time I go get the stuff and you wait here." Ben said.

"Nuh-uh, stay here I'll be back in a bit." Irma dashed off to leave Ben leaning against the wall sighing.

"I'm back!" Irma shouted.

"Oh joy…" Ben sarcastically replied.

Irma appeared, clutching a bundle of casual clothes.

"Wear this with that, and them to together, and them."

"Yes ma'am." Ben saluted Irma and she giggled.

Ben came out of the changing rooms wearing a pair of blue jeans and a fashionable white t-shirt that was tight against his biceps. Ben inspected himself in a mirror.

"Ok you can buy them and wear them tonight."

"TONIGHT!" Ben spluttered.

"Yes tonight, my parents are impatient people y'know." Irma put her hands on her hips and smiled at having shocked her boyfriend.

"Right, tomorrow you pay!" Ben smiled evilly.

"All right Mr Tough guy, what are you gonna do?"

"I'm gonna tickle you 'till you beg for mercy." Ben laughed and Irma laughed with him.

At the Allen's…

"So run that over me one more time." Ben said to his older brother.

"Ok, so you be NICE. I don't know if you've heard of the word but anyway, be polite don't scoff all the food like you do at home…" Tyler said lying on his brother's bed while Ben was trying to decide which hair style suited him best.

"Do you think she'll kiss me tonight?"

"In front of her old man? I think not. Give her time. She'll kiss you when she's ready. Oh, and plus don't use that much gel the floppy look is in this summer."

At the Lair's…

Ok Ben, stay calm remember what Tyler said. Ben walked up to the Lair's front door and rang the bell. He heard a faint shout of 'I'll get it!' and smiled. Irma.

Irma flung open the door. "BEN!" She shouted leaping into his arms.

"Are you two going to kiss or something?" A little voice said. Irma knew that voice, she knew it too well.

"CHRISTOPHER! CAN'T YOU LEAVE ME ALONE?" Irma shouted, a flush of colour crept up her cheeks.

Ben looked at Christopher for a moment, and then burst out laughing.

"Hey! What's so funny?" Christopher's little voice piped up.

"Ben, have you gone insane?" Irma looked at him quizzically.

"Mini…"He laughed. "Ryan." He laughed some more.

Irma laughed too at his statement. "Come on, you have to meet my family."

Ben gulped.

Irma half guided, half dragged Ben to meet the rest of her family in the living room.

Mr and Mrs Lair were sitting in the living room quietly. As soon as she saw Irma and Ben, she jumped up and smiled. "You must be Ben! Irma talks about you non-stop you know…"

"Mom!"

"Be quiet, Irma, let me talk to the poor boy, I'm sure he's had enough of your yapping." He mother snapped back. Ben managed to stifle a laugh. Then he noticed Mr Lair sitting oddly straight in his chair.

"Ummm, hello Mr Lair."

"Hello."

Mrs Lair looked at her husband and Ben nervously. This was not going well. Irma shot her mom a silent look.

"Let's go for dinner." Mrs Lair smiled a lovely smile.

Irma now fully dragged Ben to the dining room.

Fifteen minutes later…

By this time Irma and Mrs Lair were worried. Ben and Mr Lair had said very few words.

Aww this is boring. Christopher slipped his pet spider out of his pocket. He grinned. Let's spice it up a little. He slowly slipped his spider on his mother's chair.

"ARRRRG!" Mrs Lair screamed when she saw the fat spider crawling up her leg.

She stood up quickly. Irma also saw the spider and screamed. She tried to flick it away. The spider crawled in between all the dishes of food with Christopher and Ben trying to catch it. Some how the spider flew up and soared through the air towards Mr Lair. Luckily Ben caught it before it reached Mr Lair.

"Touchdown, Mrs Lair, shall I put it outside?" He asked her innocently, but his eyes had a mischievous twinkle in them.

"NO! He's mine!" Christopher shouted.

Ben turned his to see Christopher. "So you're saying you put the spider on Mrs Lair's chair."

"I…I…Hey! No fair!" Christopher said enraged.

Mr Lair laughed." If the boy can make Christopher tell the truth, he can to anything. Except play chess."

"You are talking to the junior chess champion of Bradwich!"

"All right, Benny boy, you're on." Mr Lair and Ben left the room.

"Humph, this was meant for me and Ben, now he goes to play chess with dad!" Irma stormed into the Lair family garden.

Twenty minutes later…

"Checkmate, Mr Lair! I win!" Ben shouted gleefully.

"It's a fluke." Mr Lair said moodily. He was unbeaten until Ben came along.

"I better go see Irma; I bet she's mad at me."

"You know my girl well."

Ben walked into the kitchen to find Mrs Lair washing up.

"Mrs Lair have you seen Irma, I have to give her something."

Mrs Lair smiled. "She's in garden Benjamin."

"Thanks Mrs L." Ben walked into the garden and saw Irma sitting on a bench.

"Hey beautiful." He sat close next to her.

Irma turned her back to him and crossed her arms.

"I got something for you."

After a few seconds, Irma's curiosity washed over her. She turned around to see him holding out a pink box. She took it gingerly.

"Open it." He whispered leaning closer to her.

She opened it cautiously at gasped at the beautiful aquamarine and sapphire bracelet inside.

"I bought it when you thought I went to the washroom today."

Irma flung her arms around Ben and kissed him on the lips. He kissed her back.
