Oh Hey Hadley? Ben said. You can call me Hadie or Hads. Well Hadie, I was wondering if you would go on a date with me? He said. Um sure. Hadley said a bit nervous. You look nervous, do you not want to go. Ben said. No! I just haven't been on one. Don't worry, it will be fun. Meet you at your dorm? Yeah Hadley said and he kissed her cheek.

She ran around finding Mal and found her talking to Parker Pan. Hi can I talk to you? Hadley said grabbing her. What's wrong? She said. Ben asked me on a date. Let's go find Evie, see you later Parker? Yeah he said. Apparently, Parker helps Ben as a second in command or like a substitute, so she will try to get up front too.

There you are! We have been looking for you literally everywhere! Mal said. What's wrong? Evie said and Hadley said, Ben just asked me out on...a date. Doug said, Nice. Evie said, We can handle this. Bye. Bye. Doug said. Evie said, You're looking a little pale. Yeah, of course. It's my first Hadley said. I can fix that with some gloss and some blush. Evie said. Oh no said Mal.

In the girls dorm, Mal and Evie were getting her ready. Okay. Easy on the blush. I don't want to scare him away. Not that I could. Hadley said and Evie said, Please. My mom taught me how to apply blush before I could talk. Always use upward strokes.

Mal said, My mom was never really big on makeup tips. Yeah and my dad is dude Hadley said. Evie said, Well, now you will know now. We're going to need all the family we can get If we don't pull this off. My mother's not a barrel of laughs when she doesn't get her way. Just ask Snow White.

Mal said, Are you afraid of them? Eh Hadley said and Evie said, Sometimes. Are you afraid of your mom? Mal said, I just really want her to be proud of me. She gets so angry with me when I disappoint her. And sh... yeah, she's my mom, so I know she loves me... In her own way. Evie said, Moving on. Come see.

Hadley asked, Are we done? Evie said, Yeah. Hadley said, Oh. I know. I look... Say it. Not hideous. Not even close. Soon someone knocked and Hadley opened the door and Ben said to Hadley, For the first time, I understand the difference between pretty and beautiful. She smirked blushing and he said, I hope you like bikes. she grabbed the helmet and waved Mal and Evie bye.

The ride on Ben's bike into The Forest. They talk as they walked where they were going. Tell me something about yourself that you've never told anyone. Um... My middle name is Judith. Ben said, Judith?

Yeah. Bertha. Just my dad doing what she does best. Being really, really evil. Hadley Judith. Hadley said and Ben said, Mine's Florian. Florian? Hadley asked and Ben replied with a Yeah. Mal said, How princely. Oh, that's almost worse. Ben said, I mean, you know, It's better than Judith. But it's still not...

He closed her eyes and said, Okay, watch your foot. Yeah. Are you good? Mm-hmm. Hadley said. Ben said, Now, step up. There you go. His hand went up her arms making he have goosebumps as he said You ready? In her ear. Hadley said, Mm-hmm. Ben replied saying, Open. Go on.

Hadley said, Mm... Ben said, is this your first time?

Hadley said, Mm... We don't really date much on the island. It's more like... Gang activity. Ben said, Um, I meant, is this your first time eating a jelly donut?

Hadley asked, Is it bad? Ben said, You got a... Just a... I mean, yeah, do this. Hadley said, Mm-hmm. Gone? You can't take me anywhere, I guess.

Ben said, You know, I've done all the talking. Your turn. I really don't know that much about you.

Tell me something. Hadley said, Well, I'm 16. I'm an only child. And I've only ever lived in one place. Ben said, Me, too. That... we have so much in common already.

Hadley laughed and said, No. Trust me, we do not. And now you're gonna be king. Ben said, Yeah. Hadley asked, What? Ben said to her, A crown doesn't make you a king. Hadley asked, Well, it kind of does.

Ben said, No, it... Your father is the god of the underworld and I've got the poster parents for goodness. But we're not automatically like them. We get to choose who we're gonna be. And right now, I can look into your eyes and I can tell you're not evil. I can see it. She smiled a little but he soon said, Let's go for a swim.

Hm? What? Oh Uh... Right now? Hadley asked a bit nervous. Ben said, Yeah, right now. Hadley said, I think I'm just gonna stay here. Ben said, No, no, no. Come on. Hadley said, I think I'm gonna stay behind and try a strawberry. I've literally never tried a strawberry before. Mm! Mm... Ben said, Don't eat all of them. Hadley said, Okay. No promises. Ooh! Mm. She saw him on the water fall waving at her and she said, Are those little crowns on your shorts?

Ben yelled to her, Maybe. Whoo! Ha-ha!

Hadley started to sing..

♫ A million thoughts in my head ♫

♫ Should I let my heart keep listening? ♫

♫ Cause up 'til now, I've walked the line ♫

♫ Nothing lost but something missing ♫

♫ I can't decide what's wrong, what's right ♫

♫ Which way should I go?

♫ If only I knew what my heart was telling me ♫

♫ Don't know what I'm feeling ♫

♫ Is this just a dream? ♫

♫ Ah oh, yeah ♫

♫ If only I could read the signs in front of me ♫

♫ I could find the way to who I'm meant to be ♫

♫ Ah oh, if only ♫

♫ If only ♫

♫ If only ♫

♫ If only ♫

♫ Every step, every word ♫

♫ With every hour I'm feeling in ♫

♫ To something new, something brave ♫

♫ To someone I've never been ♫

♫ I can't decide what's wrong, what's right ♫

♫ Which way should I go ♫

♫ If only I knew what my heart was telling me ♫

♫ Don't know what I'm feeling ♫

♫ Is this just a dream? ♫

♫ Ah oh, yeah ♫

♫ If only I could read the signs in front of me ♫

♫ I could find the way to who I'm meant to be ♫

♫ Ah oh, If only ♫

Yeah ♫

♫ Am I crazy? ♫

♫ Maybe ♫

♫ We could happen ♫

♫ Yeah ♫

♫ Will you still be with me ♫

♫ When the magic's all run out? ♫

♫ If only I knew what my heart was telling me ♫

♫ Don't know what I'm feeling ♫

♫ Is this just a dream? ♫

♫ Ah oh... ♫

♫ If only I could read the signs in front of me ♫

♫ I could find the way to who I'm meant to be ♫

♫ Ah oh... ♫

♫ If only, yeah ♫

♫ If only, yeah ♫

♫ If only, yeah ♫

♫ If only, yeah ♫

Ben? Ben? Ben! She jumped into the lake thinking he drowned. She started to but she felt strong arms under her and she was brought back up soon coughing a lot and being set down. Ugh! You scared me! She said pushing his shoulder.

Ben asked, You... you can't swim? Hadley yelled, No!

Ben said, You live on an island! Hadley said, Yeah, with a barrier around it, remember? Ugh! Hadley was annoyed with her wet outfit. Ben said, And you still tried to save me. Hadley said, Yeah. And do you thank me? No! All I get is soaking wet! Hadley couldn't get her hair to go on fire so to her being too wet.

Ben said, And, uh, this fancy rock. It's yours. Make a wish and throw it back in the lake. She threw it back into the lake. What... Uh, Hadley... I told you that I loved you. What about you? Do you love me? Hadley turned her head away and said, I don't know what love feels like. Ben said putting his fingers under her chin turning her face to him. Maybe I can teach you.
