Crystal made her way downstairs where she saw both her sisters waiting. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx79LDC7dM1
“We haven’t gotten phone cases yet but we thought you guys sure all have your own phones” Marie said while presenting the girls with three iPhone boxes. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34SzX67o4G
The girls looked very confused. Noella opened her box and revealed a phone, this only made the look of confusion grow stronger. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNljx3aIcP
“ Is something wrong? Do you not like it?” Marie asked worried she bought the wrong thing.304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQ5iL6NJPl
“No I’m sure it’s great but we just don’t know what it is” Answered Charlotte. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2G5Kq0osTg
Marie laughed. She wasn’t being mean, she was mostly laughing at herself. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXc8s0mySyQ
“I am so sorry, I guess I forgot that we were essentially born yesterday. These are phones, most people have them. You can make calls and texts on them.”304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9aCB43mE8
“What are texts” questioned Noella. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8srvwo5VF
“It's Another form of digital communication, tomorrow morning I’ll have Matthew help you set them up and explain all of it” Marie voiced in a motherly tone. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjYbwclIGi
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvBS6s38vG
The next morning……304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqrnzdG4AA
Matthew was headed downstairs for breakfast when he was stopped by Noella. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2DlSFoIo0
“Matthew I need to asked you a few things”304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfyj9Mt3as
“About the phone?”304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8rT1p670u
“Yeah but also something else, can we go some where private”304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhToFSITMjF
“Umm sure, we can go to my room.” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLKQmgMS3H
They both headed to his room and sat on his bed.304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyPGkmcCKj
“Ben said you could explain dating to me.” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbIoq14y2k
Matthew paused. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpYb7qioLN
“Typically it’s a guy and girl, but dating is like when a guy and girl like each other romantically and go on dates, like going out to eat, going ice skating, or going to the movies with each other. Dating also usually means you’re exclusive, meaning you don’t hold that title or go on romantic dates with other people. People usually date for an extended period of time before they get married. And before you ask, marriage is basically all that stuff plus you live together.” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHauzQMMgE7
“Can me and Ben date?” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlH1RmfvLm
“Um I feel like you should be having this conversation with him.” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKL1qBFRRQr
“ Where can I find him?” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYAbaOUu4q
“ If you’re that anxious to talk to him I can see if he’s free.” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vFWGVR0qJ
Noella just gave him a big smile in return. Pulled out his to give Ben a call knowing he probably wouldn’t be busy. Ben was average looking. He was pale and stocky with a baby face. Neither Ben nor Matthew had much experience with girls. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfM8CeP9cQI
“Are you free right now?”304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMsiPN1GQi
“Yeah, why?” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVkF7rRvLm
“Do you wanna come over and help Noella set up her phone?” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixWqJiti84
“Wait, did she asks for me? Like specifically me?”304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCpvSaCfm3
“Are you gonna come or not?” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaJ7SInArW
“Yes! Tell her I will be there” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQbcWWe7Ue
Matthew hung up and put his phone back in his pocket. Noella was intently waiting in his doorframe. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaplSAjdoU
“I think he’s on his way” Matthew relayed the message back to her. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4dilL49LL
“YES!!” Noella shouted at the top of her lungs. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgf5yXZEqPe
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ojJZMSUZP
Within a few minutes Ben was ringing the doorbell. Noella had been anxiously waiting for him and rushed to open the door as soon she heard him. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iU2kmsAEV
“Hello Ben!” She greeted him with a huge smile. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOuBxypNAx
“Hello Noella, Matthew said you needed help with phone, I’m pretty tech-y so I am ha….” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7d0nT3ZQ9
He was interrupted. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8QGEHt3Ig
“ I don’t want to talk about the phone.” She talked rapidly. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9XIyPbfgH
“Oh?” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwXsG8Y15t
“Matthew explained dating to me like you said and I think me and you should date!” She said while grinning. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtF4eW3LurB
“Are you sure?” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVo1dOXyjun
“Yes I’m absolutely positively 100% sure!” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCODJTytmgc
“ Do you want to go catch a movie with me this Saturday?” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1KE5h9Nn8
“YES I WOULD LOVE TO!!” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLe4PXDbey
Ben liked her and thought she was cute but hadn’t really ever gone on a real date before. He wasn’t use to girls having crushes on him. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyc9Zk7S5Hz
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQrmQLU8KS
While that was happening Luke was watching a basketball in the living room when Charlotte walked in. She was confused as to what was happening on the TV. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qxnPl2dB7
“What’s that?” she asked Luke while pointing to the TV. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPNYSDCe7B
“Oh it’s basketball”304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRm1ZAZs1sr
“Can anyone play basketball?” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM8yXqXSBc
“Yeah, anyone can play, most people don’t end up on TV but all you really need is a hoop and a ball” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3LjUVNVpP
“ Can I play?” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrgDXirsCi
He hesitated to answer her.304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VtIYykLB1
“Yeah I think that would be a good idea. It might actually be good to see if your mutations cause you to be more or less athletically inclined then the average person.” 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGN3eoPDRbt
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElbWPDPitc
Also while that was happening….. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvfX1PqMPy
Crystal sat in her room obviously being the most introverted out of the bunch. She was doodling in a notebook that she found in her room. Marie and Luke gave all the girls one but Crystal was the only one to use it. Marie was upstairs when she saw Crystal’s door ajar. She peeked inside to see Crystal so focused on her drawing that she didn’t even notice Marie. Marie continued to step closer towards her daughter until she could see what she was drawing. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebEUvg1S2E
“ oh my goodness this is really good” Marie finally made Crystal aware of her presents. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJRHZ85qPX
“Oh I didn’t see you” she mumbled. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEQ5UY2mpt
“These are great. When did you have the time to learn how to draw so good.” Marie continued to praise her daughter.
“ These are beautiful! Maybe we could sign you up for some art classes, I mean if you want to.” Marie said in response. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnHkbtLqUn
“ Yeah that actually sounds nice.” Crystal smiled.304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOa3pabLRn
This was the first time Marie had seen her smile. 304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNGAfZKnlE
