A/N: I don't own any of this...Really, I don't. Sorry this update took so long but school/ dance is kicking my ass right now.
Don't worry I'm not changing the format I just figured this format worked better for this chapter. I also figured a short chapter is better than nothing so here it is!

9am Eastern Standard Time

Mark POV

Life is over. My daughter has started dating, I don't know how this happened, Lauren and I had agreed on 16 for her dating but no. It's not like I hate the guy she's dating, after all it is Roger and Mimi's son, and she could've done worse. I'm just worried, I know I shouldn't be Brad is responsible, how can I get this across? MY BABY'S ON HER FIRST DATE! Ok I think that's good, I could blame this all on Lauren after all, she's the one who didn't want more kids, yes it's all her fault I've decided. At least I got some good footage of her getting ready and her and Brad leaving.

Christi POV

I think right about now my dad's freaking out. Probably worried something bad is gonna happen when we're out. He worries way too much.

Brad POV

I wonder what Christi's thinking about right now, maybe I should ask her. No, that'd so all girly and creepy. Why is this so hard? We've known each other forever it shouldn't be this hard. Should I put my arm around her? I think it'd be ok.

Christi POV

Wow this is awkward, wait is he trying to put his arm around. Ow! He elbowed me in the back!

"What?" he asked.

I must've said ow out loud.

"Nothing really," I replied.

"What? You can tell me," He persisted.

"You kinda elbowed me in the back," I told him.

"Oh sorry," he said sheepishly.

More awkward silence, why do people like this so much?

"So what should we do?" He asked.

"Let's take a walk in the park," I say pulling him up from his chair.

I drag him outside while holding onto his hand; we walk through Tompkins Square park. We look at all the different critters we see. Wait why is my thigh vibrating? I realize that it's just my cell phone going off so I sit down on a bench.

"Hello," I answer.

"Hi, just seeing how your date's going," Great my dad phoning on my date.

"It's good but I think the signals breaking up," I say slightly guilty.

"Don't you even…"

"What, sorry, I can't hear you, chrrrrrrr," I yell into the phone, and than I hung up.

"Who was that?" Brad asked.

"My dad"

"Oh, I guess we should be getting back than," Brad replied slightly disappointed.

"Yeah, he's freaking out," I said.

We walk back through the park with his arm around my shoulders. When we got to the apartment Brad walked me up to the door we went in for a kiss and…
