Sunday morning...

Schroeder got up early and started playing on his grand piano. His mom woke up and went downstairs. She went into the living room where her son was playing a different music shes never heard him play before. Schroeder, how was the talent show yesterday?, she asked. When he looked up she noticed his bruised jawline. Oh my dear who did this?, she asked trying to touch him. Mom, I did deserved it., he told her who the girl was and who her brothers were. He told her what happened 7 years ago. And about what he did to Lucy after the song ended and what he told her.

Well, I guess you going have to not only prove yourself to her but her brothers as well., his mom said. Yeah I know. I just need to figure out how., He said looking down.

Mom- You can cross that bridge when you come to it dear, but until then let her make the decision if she wants to be with you. If not just tell her you guys can keep it slow like become friends first then..

Schroeder- Mom I have deep feelings for this girl, and it would kill me if we can't be more then friends. I need her!

Mom- Calm down! Did she tell you she feels the same?

Schroeder- She used to. I think I caused her to much pain back then, and I'm willing to make it up to her for the rest of my life. If she lets me.

Mom- Well, you can go see if she is available today to talk to.

Schroeder shakes his head and says, Mom I don't even know her number and I don't know where shes lives. His mom stood up from the bench to walk over to their window and points out there and says, Well, could it be the new people that just moved in beside us? Schroeder stands up and walks to the window beside his mom and notices Linus and Rerun cleaning up the yard with Lucy sitting on a lawn chair in short shorts and a v-neck shirt, wearing sunglasses while their mom yells at the boys and saying something about fighting then glaring at Lucy and tells her to come inside to do house work.

Hmm, well looks like they are being grounded so I probably can't today., He said still watching the brothers start to fight about picking up. You never know unless you go out there. Huh, I wonder who that guy is coming out of his car., his mom said looking at the tall, dark haired guy walking up the the brothers and talking like he knew them for while. Who knows., said Schroeder getting a little irritated.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

So you guys are in trouble then?, Ricky chuckled.

Well, Rerun punched him I didn't, but man I wanted too., Linus says putting the piece of plastic in the trashbag he was holding.

Well, you should of 'cause it was stupid on what he did., Rerun said getting angrier.

What did he do?, asked Ricky trying not to be nosey.

Schroeder kissed Lucy!, Shouted Rerun and he threw down his trashbag and stomped on it.

He did what?, asked Ricky getting kind of jealous.

Yeah she said he told her he has "feelings" for her or something like that and she didn't know how she suppose to handle it. I told her she was stupid and then mom stopped us and told us today we are grounded and gotta clean the yard and Lucy was going to be grounded after today 'cause of your date tonight., Rerun said while picking up his bag again to start picking up the yard. I'm not grounded but I was told to go out and help him., Linus said pointing to Rerun. Rerun just rolled his eyes.

Ricky nods and tells them, Okay well, just tell her I'll pick her up at 5 o'clock okay? I uhh, I gotta go. They told him they would and he left.

Few minutes before Lucy and Ricky's date..

Lucy was upstairs just got out of the shower and got dressed. She was wearing nice jeans and a cute t-shirt. While straighting her hair her mom calls, Lucy dear, Ricky is here!

Okay mom just a second!, Lucy calls back. She has been running late tonight, because she just couldn't get what happened at the talent show out of her mind. She kept playing the kiss and what Schroeder said to her. She didn't want to believe him but she couldn't just blow it off. She wished to pushed him back before he kissed her, then she wished she just kept kissing him. Grrah, I hate feeling like this, I don't want to think about him on my first date with Ricky. I mean what would happen if I say Schroeder and not Ricky's name. Well, I'll go have some fun with Schro..I mean Ricky! Dang it!

LUCY COME DOWN HERE NOW!!, her mother yelled.

Okay coming for real this time!, Lucy said coming down the stairs smiling nervously.

Ricky was smiling at her, he was dressed in a nice red T-shirt and dark jeans. You look amazing!, he said to her. Oh, thank you., she said putting a strand of hair behind her ear.

They started out the door and headed to Ricky's truck, it wasn't the moving truck but a regular 4x4 truck. Oh wow nice truck!, Lucy said getting in. Thanks, I just bought it yesterday., He told her getting in his self.

He took her to a fancy restaurant. Then he took her to the movies. The movie was a love story and Lucy had to use the bathroom before they left the theater when movie was over. She had a funny feeling about this date. She thought it was strange that he would order for her. It was what she would of gotten but she never told him. Then he tried putting his arm around her in the movie. She put her hand on his and moved his arm off and on the arm rest. It feels like he is trying to rush this. Like he is trying to be better. Maybe I should talk to him, she thought after she dried her hands.

Hey Ricky I..uhh where did you go..AHHH!!!, she screamed because someone came up and grabbed her mouth to shush her. She lifted up her foot and dug her heel in his foot and used her elbow in this person's stomach and hurried and flipped around to look who it was, it was Ricky.

Ouch, dang girl when did you learn how to fight?, Ricky said rubbing his belly and laughing. Ricky?! What is wrong with you tonight? You act like your controlling and a creep. I mean trying to scare me like that I don't appreciate it., Lucy said getting a little angry.

I'm sorry I talked with your brothers before you came down and they mentioned you like a man in control and like them scaring you and your mom mentioned about ordering you the dinner you would eat. Now I know not to. I'm so sorry I ruined the night for you., Ricky said looking defeated.

Oh it's okay, just future advice next time ask the girl your with not her family. I am sorry too about hurting you., She said sounding sincere. It's okay I deserved it. Hahaha, he laughed and then she laughed.

He drove her home and they stayed in the truck in silence. Would it be wrong to get a goodnight kiss on the first date?, he asked her. Well, I guess it should be okay., she says leaning in then he leans in and their lips meet. The kissed didn't last long but it was enough to notice something was off. Lucy opened her eyes and stopped the kiss she said, Well night Ricky! I had fun bye!

All he could say was Bye, before she opened the truck door and ran to her house door and opened it and closed it. What the hell. That kiss felt like I was kissing one of my brothers. The look on Ricky's face says a different story. What the hell is wrong with me! She thought resting her back against the front door. Lucy?, her mom asked. It scared her so she jumped, You scared me!, she said with her hand on her chest.

Well your face looked grossed out, did something happ...en?, but before her mom could finish there were a knock on the door. Lucy's eyes went wide. Lucy why don't you answer it maybe he would want a goodnight kiss, said her mom giving her a wink and leaving her daughter all alone at the door. Yeah, well I don't want to kiss.. him. Well I gotta get this over with and I'll tell him I gotta go to bed so he can leave yeah that's it! She thought while opening the door and she seen who it was and it wasn't the boy in the truck.

Hello, Lucy...
