A/N: Hello B&W Fandom. Here's the next chapter... not too long. It's a set up for more wonderful family talks and stuff like that. Hope it's okay. Enjoy!

"Hey Claudia?" Sarah had been standing at the entrance of what she now called Clartie's office for a few minutes, not wanting to interupt the woman during work.

Claudia spun around in her chair like a kid, even though she was becoming a lot more serious about things regarding the warehouse, she still managed to keep her youthful spunk; one of the few reasons the journey to becoming caretaker was a little longer than usual. "What's up kid?"

Sarah walked to the comfy chair and sluggishly plopped herself down. "Are my parents here?"

"Yeah, they're in the warehouse. You want me to call them?"

"No!" Sarah straightened up immediately, worrying her bottom lip and in that moment she looked frighteningly identical to Myka which cause Claudia to freak out.

"Woah! What's going on? Seriously dude, should I get your moms?" She started searching her desk and papers for her farnsworth.

"No... I'm sorry. It's not a big deal. I just... I..." Sarah didn't know how to get it out. It really wasn't serious but from the look on her friends face, she knew that what she was trying to say wasn't coming out the way she intended. "I just don't want my moms to make a big deal about it so I wanted to tell you first to kind of see what your reaction will be."

"Please just say it, I can't take the suspense!" Claudia spun in the chair until Sarah shouted at her to stop so she could tell her. "Spill it... now."

"I have a freshman formal coming up next month and a boy that I really really like asked me to go and I said yes!" Sarah managed the confession in one breath, dropping her head in her hands. Claudia was quiet for a few minutes which was unnerving. "Say something? Please...?"

"A boy? Really?" Claudia covered her mouth with her hand, attempting to hide the chuckle bubbling out.

"What?" Sarah was confused by this reaction. She didn't expect it.

"Nothing. I just... I thought you were... you know."

"No I don't know."

"I thought if you went to a dance, you'd go with Ryleigh." Claudia shrugged her shoulders.

"What!?" Sarah screamed loudly.

...

"Did you hear that darling?" Not too far from the office, Helena's head popped up from behind a crate as she looked toward the source of the sound she heard.

"Was that a scream?" Myka popped up next to her, pulling her unbuttoned blouse together. "We should check it out." She pulled out her farnsworth as Helena sighed in annoyance.

"It was just getting good." Helena whined, shuffling into her jeans.

...

The farnsworth buzzed loudly, and Claudia turned to grab it. "Saved by the really loud obnoxious buzz that no one likes because it usually interrupts happier times." She opened it up. "Thank you."

"For what? What's going on, are you okay?" Myka's voice had become a lot more maternal over the years, not as harsh as it used to be; but no one let that voice fool them, she was still an ass kicker.

"Yeah." Claudia looked at Sarah who was shaking her head and mouthing 'please.' "Yeah, just playing this awesome third person shooter game. I got killed and freaked out. Think I'm losing my mojo."

"Okay? I was just checking. I guess I'll get back to work then."

Helena took that moment to pop into view on the screen. "Yes she should Claudia because she was making excellent progress on this end until your very untimely scream of defeat. There should have been different screams happening then, so if you'd please refrain from interrupting again, I for one would greatly appreciate it." She took the farnsworth and shut it.

"Man they have issues." Claudia tossed the device to the side and looked back at a horrified Sarah.

"Hey, don't look at me. You didn't want me to tell them you were here so don't be mad at me about all of that."

"So... you think they'll be okay with me having a date to a dance?"

"Honestly, I think they'll be all mushy about it. Probably want to buy you a dress and everything."

"Seriously?" Sarah didn't believe it for a second.

"Okay, or they'll let you borrow a tesla for the night just in case he ends up being a total ass hat."

"He's sweet. He plays chess." Sarah blushed and looked away for a second. When she looked up, Claudia was pointing the camera phone at her. "What are you doing!?"

"After you tell your parents, I'm gonna show them this so they can see how much you looooove him."

"I don't love him." She replied honestly. "It's a crush."

"I know. I was kidding. Your parents...? That's love. Like, forever and ever, never letting anything break us apart kind of love. It's disgusting."

They laughed about it for a while, talking a little more and when Sarah felt comfortable about telling her moms, she hugged Claudia, thanked her and headed home to wait for her parents to finish work... or whatever they were doing.

...

Myka and Helena called home to let Sarah know they were on their way, and Sarah quickly set the table, putting out the tacos she made for dinner.

When they got home, they all sat at the table, Sarah ignored the wrinkles and dirt smudges in her parents wardrobe.

"So... I have to tell you guys something."

"Should we be worried? Another fight?" Helena asked.

"No. No need to worry, and no more fighting. I just wanted to tell you guys that we have a freshman formal next month at school and I have a date." She blushed, hunching her shoulders slightly.

"Did Ryleigh ask you?" Helena said as she bit into her dinner.

"What!?" Sarah shrieked. Myka's eyes immediately went wide.

"Were you at the warehouse today?" She asked Sarah who nodded and cringed at what her mum had said over the farnsworth. "Sorry about that." Myka chuckled nervously.

"Please, let's just forget it. Anyway... I was asked by this really cute, adorable boy in my class; Trevor."

"A boy? Really?" Helena was just as surprised as Claudia was.

"Why do you guys think Ryleigh and I are into each other like that? We're best friends! And just because you and mom are gay, doesn't mean I'll be gay too. I don't look at Ryleigh like that so I don't understand why you guys are all..."

"Please stop rambling darling." Helena interrupted her. "It's adorable when your mother does it, mostly because it means I'm doing something right." She winked in Myka's direction and flinched when Myka kicked her. "Sorry. I was just asking because you and Ryleigh seem to have great chemistry and I think almost all of us assumed you two were... how should I say this... intimately involved."

"Ew! What? Okay, mum, I'm only gonna say this once... I'm a virgin!" Sarah slammed her face into her hands, she didn't want to have this conversation with anyone, let alone both her moms.

"Woah!" Myka had enough of this conversation and was truly uncomfortable. "Look, we're happy you have a date. I'm sure he's an amazing young man sweetie. Your mum and I would like to meet him at least once before this dance." Sarah groaned, but nodded. "Sorry about the misunderstanding with Ryleigh and I actually would like to have a more serious conversation about that with you later. Or you could at least talk to Abigail about it."

"Wait, about what?"

Myka was quiet for a moment, even Helena looked at her questioningly.

"Sweetie, do you think that people expect you to be gay because we are? Have we, or anyone else been giving you the impression that you're supposed to be with a girl?"

"No." Sarah remembered what she had said while rambling. "I didn't mean it like that I was just frustrated because Claudia said the exact same thing mum said and I started thinking..."

"You don't have to say anything else Sarah. I get it. I think you're just so comfortable being open with everyone because the environment you grew up in and your comfort level with Ryleigh... let's just say you guys spend a lot of time together and some of us did wonder."

"Shit!" Helena dropped her head on the table top.

"Baby what is it?" Myka immediately put her hand on her wife's shoulder, rubbing her back and moving closer. "What's wrong?"

"I just remembered I owe Pete like 80 bucks now. That bastard used his vibes to win this one."

"Wait, win this one what?" Sarah drew her parents attention. "You guys placed bets!? On me!?"

"Oh darling, since the day you were born." Helena mumbled as she lifted her head back up.

"That sucks!"

They spent the rest of dinner talking about this topic; Sarah trying to tell them how wrong it is to place bets on her personal life, her mothers telling her that they place bets on everything 'it's how we keep ourselves entertained' was her mums reasoning, and also talking about Trevor.

As they all stood to help clean up the table, Myka decided to be the adult for both her and Helena. "We should all get some sleep. It's been a long day and we can talk about the formal tomorrow okay?" She smiled warmly and hugged Sarah. "I'm happy you have a date, but like I said, we need to meet him first. Depending on how we like him, we'll either buy you a dress or give you a tesla."

"Hmmm... That's what Claudia said. You guys are all weird." Sarah said jokingly, but they all knew it was true.

"I apologize in advance darling, I may be a little interrogative, but I'll try to be as kind as possible."

"Gosh guys, I'm not gonna marry him. It's just a dance okay. Look, he's sweet and you'll love him, especially you mum."

"I doubt that." Helena scoffed over her shoulder as she started washing dishes.

"He plays chess." Sarah ended her part of the conversation there with a smirk and a wink, heading to her room.

"You think, he's any good?" Helena asked Myka who had come up behind her and wrapped her arms around her stomach. She stopped washing and turned the water off, drying her hands.

"Sarah said he's sweet so I'm sure he's great. I think we'll like him."

"Oh who cares about sweet? I mean do you think he's good at chess?" Helena turned in her wife's arms and put her own arms over Myka's shoulders, leaning into her embrace.

"Really?"

"Yes, really... maybe I can talk to him over a game. I might be able to figure him out by how he plays. I mean, believe it or not, how you play the game really says a lot about the type of person you are."

"Maybe not the first meeting okay? Don't scare him away before the dance." Myka leaned forward and kissed Helena lightly. "Sarah's really excited." She kissed her again, her hands now roaming over shoulders and hips. Myka pulled away and started backing up toward their bedroom. "Let's go to bed." She hummed at the immediate response Helena gave her, eyes now hooded and glossed over with need and desire. "We'll talk about it more tomorrow."

"Talk about what?" Helena asked, stalking sensually toward Myka.

Myka wanted Helena to forget about the dinner conversation by making her focus on something much more enjoyable, and she did.
