When Calvin and Antea got off, they began to head out to do whatever they had on mind. Rumiko then called them over.

"Hey, Cal!" She said "What time should I tell Mom and Ulrich to pick you up?"

"Well, my parents want me to be home at midnight or before." Antea said to Calvin

"Midnight." Calvin said to Rumiko "We'll call you when we're done."

"Alright, have fun." Rumiko said as she left.


"So Calvin." Antea said "What do you want to do first?"

"Wanna go to the movies?" Calvin asked

"That sounds lovely." Antea said. "Which movie?"

"How about 'Friday the 13th. The 50th Anniversary Edition'?"

"Oh, really?" Antea said uneasy

"You're not scared, are you?" Calvin teased

"No." She said defensively

"Then let's go." Calvin said.

In a short time, they arrived at the theatre. Calvin went up and bought the tickets. The man at the counter gave him a questionable look.

"Hey, aren't you that Calvin Stern kid?" He said "Of the Kadic soccer team?"

"Uh… yeah." Calvin said.

"You know, my kids go to Kadic and they are huge fans of you." He said "Tell the lady at the concession stand that your snacks are on me."

"Oh no, we couldn't…" Calvin said

"Come on, Calvin." Antea said "Would you stop being so modest for once?"

"I just don't think we should take advantage of people's generosity when we don't even know them." Calvin said.

"What's wrong with that?" Antea said.

"It's just that…" Calvin said but stopped

"Fine." He sighed "We'll take his offer."

They both then got their snacks and went into the dark theatre. For 95 minutes, Antea was clinging on to her boyfriend's arm in fright as Calvin just sat there mesmerized. After a while, Calvin noticed Antea holding on to him, shaking. Calvin just wrapped an arm around her and pulled her closer. When the movie ended, they walked out and continued with their date.

"Well, that was cheesy." Calvin said. "However, it was entertaining to say the least. What did you think, An?"

"Never take me to another movie like that again." She said

"You told me you weren't scared." Calvin reminded her.

"Yeah, well… Ooh, a photo booth." Antea said noticing a photo booth at the theatre's arcade.

"I don't know, Antea." Calvin said

"Come on, it'll be fun." She said

"Well, alright." Calvin said as he put his money in and stepped in. After four pictures, they stepped out and got their pictures when they finished developing. Antea looked at them and she began laughing.

"Oh my God." She said "These are hilarious. Look at you, Calvin." Calvin glanced over at them and even he chuckled a bit.

"Yeah. I guess they are." He said


"Come on." Antea said as they walked out of the theatre. "We still got an hour left to burn."

"Burn?" Calvin asked

"You're really not good with idioms, are you?" Antea asked

"Not really." Calvin asked "I mean I understand the meaning most of the time. It's just that I have trouble comparing them to what they really mean."

"Makes sense. Hey look, a gelato bar." Antea said pointing to a small gelato parlor across the street. "Man these places are everywhere nowadays."

"What is it with you and Italian desserts?" Calvin asked

"You're the one who introduced me to it, remember?" Antea said

"Oh yeah. Well, I guess it's only fair since XANA ruined it the last time." Calvin said as they walked over. They got the opposite of what they got the first time. Antea got chocolate and Calvin got tiramisu. They then took a seat and began conversing.

"You know, your eyes are pretty." Antea said staring at him

"You really think so?" Calvin said blushing

"Yeah." She said "How come you never look at me when you talk?"

"Well, the thing is I have Asperger Syndrome." He said

"What's that?" Antea asked

"I don't fully understand it myself." Calvin said "But from what I can understand, it basically means I can be incredibly smart but I don't have as good social skills as people without it." (A/N: This entire conversation was based off one I had with my prom date last year).

"I see. Oh, you have some gelato on your shirt." Antea said noticing that some of Calvin's gelato dripped on him.

"I'm not falling for that again." Calvin said. Just then, a slow song came on the radio.

"Shall we dance?" Calvin asked standing up. Antea then stood up and went to him.

"Yes let's." She said putting her right hand on his side and her left on his shoulder. Calvin followed suit. They then began to slow dance. After a while, the song ended and Calvin walked Antea home. He then called his parents telling them where to pick him up.


"Thanks for walking me home, Calvin." Antea said

"No problem." He said. "I'll see you tomorrow at school."

"Good night, Cal, and thanks for the wonderful night out." She said. She then went over to him and kissed him on the right cheek. She then went inside.

"Wow." Calvin whispered to himself, blushing. Just then his parents came.

"Hey, buddy." Ulrich said.

"Hey, Dad." Calvin said crawling into the back seat with Rumiko, who happened to had come along.

"So how did it go?" Ulrich asked. "What did you guys do and…"

"Umm… Ulrich?" Rumiko said. Ulrich turned around and noticed Calvin curled up in the backseat, dead asleep.

"I'm taking it went well, then." Ulrich said "Rumiko, hold on to your brother."

Rumiko did just that as Ulrich continued driving. Rumiko looked down to see that he was still sleeping; Rumiko just patted him on the back

"Way to go, champ." She whispered. Soon, they arrived at his house and they brought him to his room. It had indeed been an eventful night.


Wow, I'm finishing this faster than I anticipated, even though I still have probably around 20-30 chapters left, maybe less. But still, I never would have guessed I would have gotten to this part so early, so maybe I'll probably be finished before the holidays. Please review.
