Do you hear it??? Do you?!! Do you hear it??? C'mon, you do right?? I'm not like going crazy… Do you? Do you? Do you??????

The pretty music? The kind that plays when people are just waking up in the morning?? You heard it right? It's playing as I speak!!!! Right?? … Oh forget it!!

Getting back to the story now…

"Rise and Shine pee-o-ple!!" Daphne got up early that morning and went around the house waking everyone up. She got to her parents room. "Morning Mommy!!!! Morning Hen-ry!!!" She yelled.

Henry and Libby moaned and groaned and tried to stay under the covers. Daphne opened up their big window and sunlight burst into the room.

"Close the blinds! It's too bright…" Libby whined

"Ohhh, well too bad." Daphne mocked her. Henry was snoring peacefully, ignoring the entire hullabaloo. Then Daphne pulled the covers right off the bed. Henry was still sleeping. Libby however, was fully awake now.

"What can I say? He sleeps like a baby in the morning. But when it's time to go to sleep, he's up watching some soap on channel 11. Last night was the two hour season finale. He was up until 2." Libby said. She let out a nice long yawn and stretched.

"Wow…" Was all Daphne could say.

Libby stood up, arms folded across her chest. "Well, I'm going to take my shower now." Libby said, breaking the silence.

"Yeah, bye." With that, Daphne left the room. She arrived at the pull out bed where our bashful little Ian was in a deep slumber.

Awww, Daphne thought, look at how cute he looks when he's asleep?!

"WAKE UP, WAKE UP, WAKE UP!!!!!!" Daphne shook Ian back and forth while yelling, and yelling, and yelling….

"DAMNIT, I'M AWAKE!!!" Ian shot up in bed and yelled back.

"Oh, sorry…" Daphne apologized sarcastically. She sat on the bed.

Ian stretched out his arms and yawned. "So what are we doing today?" He asked sitting up.

"Well… today, I'm thinking about going over to the Kraiz Café to grab some yummy breakfast. Then we take the bus over to Freidman's Auto Repair shop. Then –"

Ian raised an eyebrow and interrupted. "Wait, why do you have to go to an auto repair shop?"

"To pick up my car, duh!!! It had some engine problems, but they gave me a call last week saying I should come by today to take it home."

"Oh, well okay. Continue."

Daphne pretended to clear her voice and continued. "Then we drive around our New York area in the car. That should be fun! Ooo, I know a great place where they sell the best cannolis!!!"

"Cannolis??!! I love those, they're really good!"

"I know right?! Anyway, then we could go to the mall, just to shop and stuff. Then I say we go over to the Blockbusters near here and rent Date Movie on DVD. Then we buy like popcorn, chips, and candy from the Stop&Shop. Then we come back here to just drop off our groceries. Then we leave straight for Jannie's place. Jannie and Keelan are gonna be waiting for us in front of Jannie's building. –"

Ian interrupted again… "Who are Jannie and Keelan?"

"My friends." Daphne replied then continued. "So yeah, we pick them up. Then we go mini-golfing!! It'll be fun! They've been dying to meet you! Then after mini-golfing, we all go have dinner at the best Chinese restaurant in all of China Town, New York, Lulu Lyn!"

"Lulu Lyn??" Ian said

"Yeah, the owners are sisters. One's name is Lulu and the other's Lyn. Yeah, it's fun there, and the food's awesome!"

"Ah huh."

"Mmm hmm." Daphne nodded.

"Wow, so you've had this whole day planned out just like that?!" He asked

"No. Jannie called me this morning and told me that we have dinner plans with her and Keelan, so then I just came up with this whole plan for today. Oh, I forgot to mention what we do after dinner."

"Uh, go home?"

"Well yes. But we get to watch Date Movie late at night with snacks and all cuddled up and everything… Oh, it'll be so romantic and funny!!!"

Ian chuckled. "Well what a great way to end a perfect day!"

"Totally!" Daphne stood up. "Well, better get ready! See ya, hun!" She walked to the bathroom.

"Yeah, see ya… hun!" Ian called back. Daphne turned her head and chuckled.

Daphne reached out to turn the doorknob on the bathroom door, but it was locked. So she politely knocked on the door. "Hello, anyone in there?" she called out. She didn't want it to be happening again! One morning the bathroom door was locked from the inside and no one could get in, Libby had to call a locksmith (that charged like over $100 to open one simple door!!!). And Daphne really HAD to go pee that morning!! "It's me dearie. I'll be out in a jiff." Grandmother called back. "Okay, Grandma!"

Ian walked over to Daph and slapped her on the butt. Daphne turned around and slapped him on his stomach. "Wow, didn't notice your pajamas there, Daphne…" Ian snickered. She was wearing her favorite Barney/Elmo/Blues Clues/Teletubbies pajama bottoms. "What?! Ya got something against my homies on my pj's?" Daphne and Ian burst out laughing at the same time! Just then, Grandmother stepped out of the bathroom.

"What's so funny?" she asked

Ian and Daphne looked at each other for a spilt second. "Nothing." They said together

Grandmother shrugged and headed for the kitchen.

"Bye-Bye…" Daphne started for the bathroom. "Daph, could I please just go first? I'll be done before you. I have to go badly!" Ian held his crotch for emphasis.

Daphne crinkled her brows. "Eww, TMI!" Daphne shut the bathroom door as she got in.

Ian banged on the door. Curse this apartment for only having one stinkin' bathroom! "Daphne, that's unfair!"

"What's unfair is fair!" She yelled through the door.

Ian banged louder and louder… Daphne couldn't start her morning having her boyfriend acting like a three year old! She wouldn't get to cleanse her pores in peace! So she opened the door.

"Alright, sheesh, you can brush your freakin' teeth with me. Just quit acting like you belong in a play pen!"

Ian sneered in victory! Daphne rolled her eyes…

So the two brushed their teeth in semi-peace. They kept on pinching, nudging, poking, and slapping each other jokingly. Giggling all the while.

After their morning routines, they got dressed. Ian rocked a regular Blue tee shirt, Diesel Jeans, a London track jacket, and red Converse sneakers. So simple… but hot.

Daphne pulled off a v-neck aqua babydoll shirt, with dark navy jean Bermudas, sparkly red flats, and accessories galore. Awsm!

"Wow, you look fantastic!" Ian said to Daphne while they were outside Daphne's building. They were walking to the Kraiz Café which wasn't too far from the apartment building.

"Thank you! And you look… good…" Daphne giggled

Ian eyed her. "Daphne!?"

"Fine, you look awesome. Awesomely awesome. How's that for ya?" ...she totally meant it!

Ian smacked her ass… In public! "How's that for ya?" He mocked. Turns out an eight year old was walking behind them, and saw.

Daphne gasped. "How could you?!!" She flicked his ear.

"Oh, would you like me to show you again?"

She pointed her index finger straight at his face. "Don't even think about it mister!"

They giggled along until they reached the café. Once inside, they both sat on counter stools. Daphne ordered an onion bagel with cream cheese, a frappucino, and a croissant then Ian had a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich, a hashbrown, and a cinnamon flavored latte. They also took two scones to go.

"Eww, onion breath! Luckily, I've got Doublemint!!" Daphne said enthusiastically then she reached into her handbag and took out a piece of gum. "Yum!"

"Hey, what about me? I've got bacon breath!" Daphne handed him a piece too. "Thanks."

They walked to the nearest bus stop and sat on the bench. Ian took out his iPod and Daphne took out hers. He came down to the song "Dani California". Daphne was listening to "I'm like a Bird". Daphne started swaying her head and mouthing the words to the song. Ian just sat there and listened. All of a sudden, they looked to each other then asked, "Trade?" And they smiled. Ian handed the left earphone to Daphne and she handed her left one to him. They sat close together, listening to each others' songs.

Three words to say here, ah dor ahble!

"Hey Daph…" Ian started. Daphne was too caught up with the songs, that she couldn't hear him. "Daphne…" Ian poked her on the side of her stomach.

"Hmm?" She answered

"I forgot to…" He took one of the earphones out of her ears.

"Hey, I'm a song short!"

"Too bad. I wanted to ask you something before the rest of the day goes by."

Daphne told him to continue. "Well, is this Date Movie a real movie, or is it just a figure of speech?"

She gave him the oh-wow-your-so-incredibly-stupid-look in a cute and funny way.
