Crystal made her way downstairs where she saw both her sisters waiting. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBIvFVUG1p
“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. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqL6IqlUSUS
The girls looked very confused. Noella opened her box and revealed a phone, this only made the look of confusion grow stronger. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5nyoYa5op
“ Is something wrong? Do you not like it?” Marie asked worried she bought the wrong thing.248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDczzNHkpa
“No I’m sure it’s great but we just don’t know what it is” Answered Charlotte. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwfV1QVA8a
Marie laughed. She wasn’t being mean, she was mostly laughing at herself. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHd5mmBXtu
“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.”248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCoCZTOijg
“What are texts” questioned Noella. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZY64pRYUQw
“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. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpDTjL9oak
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwq08mRlWl
The next morning……248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tJFGhsUiR
Matthew was headed downstairs for breakfast when he was stopped by Noella. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8po2sG6K8w
“Matthew I need to asked you a few things”248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcGxHlGxlV
“About the phone?”248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpFLst3O1t
“Yeah but also something else, can we go some where private”248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dgxvi8hS4
“Umm sure, we can go to my room.” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6nH6eZfYn
They both headed to his room and sat on his bed.248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObW8lxfdty
“Ben said you could explain dating to me.” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvFKpreSUU
Matthew paused. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrdr1U03PL
“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.” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YyvV97Skk
“Can me and Ben date?” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkcDEDAv4w
“Um I feel like you should be having this conversation with him.” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtiCfLF1n5
“ Where can I find him?” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOJVHxNxzX
“ If you’re that anxious to talk to him I can see if he’s free.” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9Rqzdz6pF
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. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvElq8LovCj
“Are you free right now?”248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTknSImkVSc
“Yeah, why?” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTQOLIjb46
“Do you wanna come over and help Noella set up her phone?” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5irljctrS
“Wait, did she asks for me? Like specifically me?”248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73KNLCPXsJ
“Are you gonna come or not?” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZY3rs85KH
“Yes! Tell her I will be there” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcS2J2KKJZe
Matthew hung up and put his phone back in his pocket. Noella was intently waiting in his doorframe. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0OFQ9iWsZ
“I think he’s on his way” Matthew relayed the message back to her. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQ8xMSSqwf
“YES!!” Noella shouted at the top of her lungs. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4mXlWrNaK
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nvzdn43Pa
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. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1Kb2n2GhE
“Hello Ben!” She greeted him with a huge smile. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaOPloHwU2
“Hello Noella, Matthew said you needed help with phone, I’m pretty tech-y so I am ha….” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjjv9KyGmu
He was interrupted. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kVaNhfVpQ
“ I don’t want to talk about the phone.” She talked rapidly. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEenUEyVoQM
“Oh?” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7lG9hvjbH
“Matthew explained dating to me like you said and I think me and you should date!” She said while grinning. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAXof9E6U7
“Are you sure?” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGpGFCVTpg
“Yes I’m absolutely positively 100% sure!” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxY7sV22DmS
“ Do you want to go catch a movie with me this Saturday?” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94GwZuNpe8
“YES I WOULD LOVE TO!!” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxH13fWYGc
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. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcfoZi5f8t
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZik2gJc3D
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. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTZOZ8WfN2
“What’s that?” she asked Luke while pointing to the TV. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2aRdyMgzw
“Oh it’s basketball”248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7ZHhYoPQp
“Can anyone play basketball?” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3X0cWmJqEk
“Yeah, anyone can play, most people don’t end up on TV but all you really need is a hoop and a ball” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GrxxANATY
“ Can I play?” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHdlNQ4egC
He hesitated to answer her.248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjI9UMBj7Z
“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.” 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAadBjty57a
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJRJCuf9nm
Also while that was happening….. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuXsZGcNli
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. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVotG1NGnJc
“ oh my goodness this is really good” Marie finally made Crystal aware of her presents. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgKwCyTzjw
“Oh I didn’t see you” she mumbled. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LYt3r3Im9
“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. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkM80cBFfJ
“ Yeah that actually sounds nice.” Crystal smiled.248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBWyRwCYHi
This was the first time Marie had seen her smile. 248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGIRiq2Hr5
