Chapter 18
Daphne and Fred x
Date ??
The day had come that Fred was going to ask Daphne to the prom but what he didn't know that he wasn't the only one planning to ask Daphne to the prom.
Fred got out of the house and remembered he had to go find Red who said he would go date finding with him and sadly for Fred he couldn't back down so Red would not ask Daphne to the Prom himself.
Fred headed to the Malt shop and when he arrived there was Red sitting inside having a drink at the counter, Fred walked into the shop and sat next to Red.
I see you decided to come then. Red said looking at Fred
Yeah, I need to get a date at some time. Fred said sitting there and looking at the menu
So you got anyone in mind? Red asked out of curiosity
Err…. Yeah kind of, I'm not sure if she would say yeah though Fred said
A girl say no to quarterback, that's shocking Red said taking another sip of his soda
Why is he being nice to me?? Fred wondered
Have you got anyone in mind Red? Fred asked
Nah, but I got to have a date otherwise I would be a laughing stock and that wouldn't look good if I was Prom king and I had no queen, wouldn't it. Red said smirking
You only taking a girl because you would be able to get to be prom king? Fred asked
Yeah, isn't that why people go?? Apart from getting laid Red said standing up and smirking
Come on we better get those hot chicks begging for us Red said walking out
Fred soon followed and was walking down the road and heading towards the park were the girls hanged out watching the guys play basketball.
Fred got there and all the guys were sitting on the bench and soon noticed Fred and Red and asked them to join and they agreed so they took off there tops like usual for it was a hot day and started to play basketball and soon Fred noticed Daphne and Velma heading towards the bench's and looked like they were going to study, well Velma at least.
Hey, Fred pass the ball Shouted Paul who was waving
Fred threw that ball at Paul and he had a shot and scored and they all cheered along with girls and soon Daphne noticed and went over to see what was happening with Velma tagging behind.
Hey, what's the score? Daphne asked
Hey, Daphne… err I actually don't know, don't really take notice of the score I just cheer for Paul Maria said smirking and watching the game
He asked you to Prom then? Daphne said sitting down next to her and gestured Velma to join her,
Yeah, about a year ago Maria said smiling and watching the game
Really, you guys stayed together for that long? Daphne said looking shocked
Yeah, he told me the other day that he loved me for the first time ever, I love him so much. Maria said
Wow, you are lucky Daphne said looking at Fred
What, you mean a guy has never loved you? Maria said looking at Daphne then she saw Velma, Hi Velma She said
Velma looked up and smiled
Hi, Velma said then looking back into her book and was surprised that she got a Hi from Maria
Maria looked back at the game and shouted " I LOVE YOU PAUL" at the top of her lungs and Paul blew her a kiss and Daphne smiled at the gesture and Fred was watching her and she soon noticed and looked at him and smiled and gave him a little wave and of course he smiled and waved back and carried on with the game
Look who's got a crush on you Lisa said behind Daphne
Daphne turned round
What? Daphne said confused
Fred, has got a crush on you Lisa said smiling
A huge one Maria added
Fred has not got a crush on me Daphne replied and Velma gave a little chuckle and carried on reading
Yeah, he so has Lisa said
How you know? Daphne asked
He has never waved at a girl before whilst he is playing basketball or any sport for that matter Maria said
How does that make Fred have a crush on me? Daphne asked
Well, Fred is very competitive and never took his eyes off the game even when a really fit girl comes along and the other guys look, but his eyes are always fixed on the game. Lisa said
Daphne looked at Velma for her opinion and Velma looked up
It's true Velma said then back at her book
See even Velma agrees Lisa said smiling and soon the game had finished and the guys headed over to the girls
Speaking of who Lisa said smiling and started talking to Karl, her date for Prom
All the girls were talking to the guys and laughing and of course Maria and Paul was kissing the faces off each other, soon Velma noticed Fred and new he was wanting to ask Daphne something and walked over to her friends on the other Bench.
Hi Daph Fred said standing in front of her
Hi Freddie Daphne said smiling and was trying not to stare at his six pack and abs
Fred smiled shyly and gulped and noticed one of the guys put his thumb up to him and carried on talking
Erm, Daph I was wondering if I could ask you something He said fiddling with his top in his hands and looking down
Sure Daphne replied looking up at him and could tell he was nerves and this made her smile, because he looked so cute
Well, erm… I was wondering if erm Fred stammered
Come on Fred spit it out man Paul said finally after pulling from Maria but soon was back kissing her again.
I was wondering if you wanted to go to… Fred was just about to ask her but suddenly was cut off by Red.
Hey Daphne… wants to come to Prom with me Red asked smiling and standing in front of her
Daphne turned to Fred who looked shocked and was staring at Red.
Err… im not really sure… Daphne was cut off by Red
PLEASE!! Red said begging on his knees
Daphne looked round and saw all the guys and girls faces shocked at what Red did and Daphne felt bad for him and she hated this part of her but she would feel guilty and she hated feeling guilty.
Red was there staring at her and begging and she gave in.
Ok Daphne said without any enthusiasm
YES! Red said jumping up and down and soon hugged Daphne really hard and she hated it
I can't wait, but I really have to go now Red said running off and Daphne turned to look at the others who had carried on talking to there Dates, she soon turned to Fred, he quickly picked up his bag and ran up the steps without saying anything.
Everyone looked at Fred then at Daphne and of course Daphne walked off, Velma followed Daphne and of course Paul followed Fred to ask what was wrong.
