Crystal made her way downstairs where she saw both her sisters waiting. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOvTsmmPVW
“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. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgx7i2GGTW
The girls looked very confused. Noella opened her box and revealed a phone, this only made the look of confusion grow stronger. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmNnxYAKqW
“ Is something wrong? Do you not like it?” Marie asked worried she bought the wrong thing.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCo0CMNdkP
“No I’m sure it’s great but we just don’t know what it is” Answered Charlotte. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XiR1ps03l
Marie laughed. She wasn’t being mean, she was mostly laughing at herself. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfmBcW0ENh
“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.”360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYIm3dxjJ2
“What are texts” questioned Noella. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuvJCfjNAS
“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. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuftjWPIXso
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzUDVknuUN
The next morning……360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlB3lk6l8a
Matthew was headed downstairs for breakfast when he was stopped by Noella. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkHWFNuU4T
“Matthew I need to asked you a few things”360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHCV4GmAFz
“About the phone?”360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWY8mHhIEL
“Yeah but also something else, can we go some where private”360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDUiWrO1PW
“Umm sure, we can go to my room.” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLVLT54xiV
They both headed to his room and sat on his bed.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOY0LTl1fs
“Ben said you could explain dating to me.” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfbq6jz15z
Matthew paused. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhoKTSoUMi
“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.” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zaW9efDnp
“Can me and Ben date?” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjU9NZI7IHD
“Um I feel like you should be having this conversation with him.” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgv6ywoplzq
“ Where can I find him?” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4FGz1rZHM
“ If you’re that anxious to talk to him I can see if he’s free.” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdZqikVIu1
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. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDx6uZF7D6B
“Are you free right now?”360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbGvyA2RMQ
“Yeah, why?” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIyGIw85Zp
“Do you wanna come over and help Noella set up her phone?” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOryKQmnLNp
“Wait, did she asks for me? Like specifically me?”360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jCQFnXHcc
“Are you gonna come or not?” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcl2gDXGiq
“Yes! Tell her I will be there” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXtFa5EfiE
Matthew hung up and put his phone back in his pocket. Noella was intently waiting in his doorframe. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡei9tLGufnQ
“I think he’s on his way” Matthew relayed the message back to her. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpssAw5stX
“YES!!” Noella shouted at the top of her lungs. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMvmvlE46u
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyH1cdlSh6
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. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVe3R7Nj8J4
“Hello Ben!” She greeted him with a huge smile. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkypAqdotE
“Hello Noella, Matthew said you needed help with phone, I’m pretty tech-y so I am ha….” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9FPUfyJBR
He was interrupted. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdRHnDQwaZ
“ I don’t want to talk about the phone.” She talked rapidly. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gMq0xB0zo
“Oh?” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHt3hFDHZaX
“Matthew explained dating to me like you said and I think me and you should date!” She said while grinning. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrHsJv1u1D
“Are you sure?” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFLh1LuXZs
“Yes I’m absolutely positively 100% sure!” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPVeH7ozie
“ Do you want to go catch a movie with me this Saturday?” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMZxtKvgqA
“YES I WOULD LOVE TO!!” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsUaeAYzZp
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. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndtsfr8JRR
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkt4GrRCRq
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. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vgudGuQSP
“What’s that?” she asked Luke while pointing to the TV. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuH1YbK2fu
“Oh it’s basketball”360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdgOSgiOKn
“Can anyone play basketball?” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZaqXl0UwY
“Yeah, anyone can play, most people don’t end up on TV but all you really need is a hoop and a ball” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0bofNFaX1
“ Can I play?” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVuq3OMiyq
He hesitated to answer her.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XX6RtINU3
“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.” 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCYfNWSOgQ
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡop7FLw4Vvp
Also while that was happening….. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQ8Sx9UZW1
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. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNl16ukK5o
“ oh my goodness this is really good” Marie finally made Crystal aware of her presents. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeoxwrsn78
“Oh I didn’t see you” she mumbled. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMV60zkei6h
“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. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kseKNfmZM
“ Yeah that actually sounds nice.” Crystal smiled.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbegXmkgjV
This was the first time Marie had seen her smile. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfu9VueU7x
