Milani: Yellow.
Drew: Orange.
Gary: *grumbles*
Milani: Aww...what's wong with Gaweee?
Gary: *grumbles*
Drew: The Warriors won the championship.
Milani: That means...we get to do the Cavaliershipping oneshot instead of the Milani one!
Drew: Well...I guess you could still do the Cavaliershipping thing, but don't be too heavy on it. And please...I know you are ready with the Milani oneshot.
Milani: I'm not. And...I'm planning something special for the Cavaliershipping one. It's a surprise! I'm sure the readers might like it.
Drew: We'll see.
Jace: *enters room* Hey Gary! Leaf is looking for you!
Gary: She is? Bye losers. My bae is looking for me. *leaves*
Jace: *snickers*
Milani: Leaf's not really looking for Gary, is she?
Jace: Nope.
Milani: So...why'd you made him leave?
Jace: Because there is something important that I want to tell you.
Drew: Should I leave too?
Jace: If you want to.
Drew: K bye.
Milani: Drew, stay...
Drew: I'm not a dog.
Jace: Ok...you see...my family got invited to an event...and they told me that I needed to bring someone with me there to keep me company because the event might bore me.
Milani: So? Don't you have your sibs?
Jace: My older brother, Bryce, can't make it on time. Deuce has a school project to finish. Alice is having a sleepover at her friend's house and she refuses to miss it out.
Milani: So...you're asking me and Drew to accompany you.
Jace: Well...at least one of you.
Drew: Wait...why'd you make Gary leave?
Jace: Because I have no plans to bring him to a family event where he can embarrass me.
Milani: I see.
Drew: True that. Unfortunately...
Milani: Drew, I'm sure you have no plans tonight.
Drew: Well...while you were out, I...asked May out on a date tonight...so I can't come. Sorry, Jace.
Jace: It's alright. So...I guess I'm stuck with Melanie.
Milani: No you are not. Go bore yourself to death in that event.
Jace: Milani...please.
Milani: Promise me one thing.
Jace: I won't call you Melanie the whole night.
Milani: Wait...Drew? Can you and May come?
Drew: We can't. I want our date to be extra special...and just the two of us.
Milani: Fine. What time, Jace?
Jace: We'll pick you up at around 7.
Milani: What do I need to wear?
Jace: Something formal.
Milani: Great.
Jace: Don't you have something to wear?
Milani: I do. It's just that I hate wearing dresses.
Jace: Well...you don't need to...well...I guess you have to...
Milani: Whatever. I'll see you at 7.
Jace: Ok...see ya, Melanie.
Milani: That's it I'm not...
Jace: Just kidding, Milani. Thanks for doing this.
Milani: Make sure the food is great there.
Jace: We'll see. See ya! *leaves*
Milani: *looks at Drew*
Drew: *smirking*
Milani: What is up with you?
Drew: You've got a date tonight.
Milani: It's not a date you butthead. And wait...you don't have a date with...
May: *enters* Hi!
Milani: Hi, May.
Drew: Uh. Hi May. I...Iwaswonderingifyouwanttogooutwithmetonightonalovelypicnicdinner.
May: Um...what?
Drew: Do you want to have a picnic dinner with me tonight?
May: Sure, Drew! See ya laters! *leaves*
Milani: I guess you do have a date with her...okay...whatever.

6:55 PM
Jace: *enters* Melanie!!!
Milani: Gah. Don't shout I'm right here. *goes down from stairs* Sheesh. I hate wearing dresses.
Jace: Well...you look great, Milani.
Milani: *blinks in surprise* Thanks.
Jace: So...shall we go? My parents are waiting in the car.
Milani: Ok. DREW!!! I'll be going ahead!!! *leaves with Jace and into the parents' car*
Jace's mom: Oh hello dear. You must be Milani.
Milani: Hi...
Jace's dad: So...this is the Milani I've heard about. Well...good find you got there, son.
Jace: Well...she's not my girlfriend...
Jace's mom: If she's not your girlfriend, how come you brought her with you?
Jace: You told me to get some company, and she was the only one not doing anything tonight.
Jace's mom: Well...she's lovely. I don't get why you're not asking her out. Alice told me she's the perfect sister-in-law.
Milani: *silent due to the awkwardness*
Jace: MOM!
Jace's mom: Okay, dear. Your dad and I will shut up.
Jace: Ok.
*Jace's parents have a convo of their own*
Jace: *whispers* Hey...Milani, you alright?
Milani: I'm okay.
Jace: You sure? You seem tense.
Milani: Awkward is the proper term. Your parents are teasing us, and I hate wearing dresses.
Jace: Milani...you look wonderful, okay.
Milani: Um...are you sure? I didn't put too much make-up.
Jace: Milani...you don't need make up to cover up. Being the way that you are is enough.
Milani: Everyone else in the room can see it. Everyone else but you.
Jace: See...you get it.
Milani: Yeah. We're singing What Makes You Beautiful.
Jace: Wait...what? I didn't mean to say that for the sake of quoting 1D. What I mean is that you don't too much make-up to make yourself beautiful. Your simplicity is what makes you beautiful.
Milani: Um...do you mean that?
Jace: Well...um...yeah...I don't know why I'm being extra nice...
Milani: See? It's because I'm wearing make-up and a dress.
Jace: No. It's just that I can't believe you're doing this for me. I thought you hated me.
Milani: I don't hate you. And...thanks.
Jace: So...you cool then? Just enjoy the night, okay.
Milani: Well...you did bring me for the sake of having someone to talk to.
Jace: You'll see when we get there.

At the event...
*everyone is the table is talking while Jace and Milani just finished eating*
Jace: Hey, Mils. You okay?
Milani: Did you say something? *whispers to Jace* I couldn't you over their talking.
Jace: *pokes his mom* Mom, Milani and I are just going to the balcony, okay.
Jace's mom: Sure, son.
Jace: Let's go. *leaves with Milani following*
Milani: So...why are we leaving the table?
Jace: You couldn't hear me talking.
Milani: Sorry. I think I should clean my ears.
Jace: Or we just need a quiet place. *steps into balcony with Milani*
Milani: The view is wonderful!
Jace: Yeah. I'm sorry I let you come with me.
Milani: It's fine. I mean...I love their orange chicken and almond jelly.
Jace: Those were good. So...what do you call a fake pasta?
Milani: Seriously? Shiela asked that joke in a oneshot. It's an impasta.
Jace: Okay...so...how come you hate wearing dresses? You carry it quite well.
Milani: I don't like skirts.
Jace: Well...okay. What do you think happened to Drew and May's date?
Milani: Eh. I told Gary to spy on them so that we can turn it into a oneshot.
Jace: Sneaky.
Milani: Well...Drew only asked May on a date after you left.
Jace: Oh. I see. Um...Milani...um...how do you feel about people shipping us?
Milani: Weird. I bet they're gonna love us right now for this night.
Jace: Yeah. But...are you cool with it?
Milani: Well...I'd rather ship you and me than Jonny and me.
Jace: But...isn't he your crush...I mean...ex-crush?
Milani: That's the point, Jace. I am cool with his relationship with Shana. I don't like Jonny in a crush-y way anymore. We're still friends, and that's the way I like it.
Jace: What about us? Do you consider us friends?
Milani: Well...I don't know.
Jace: Don't even answer that, Milani. You know...the fact that you agreed to come with me means that you can at least consider me as a friend.
Milani: Yeah. It's kinda getting cold...do you want to go back inside?
Jace: Nah. *removes his coat and puts it on Milani*
Milani: You're so cliché, Jace.
Jace: You said you were cold.
Milani: So...you must be warm then and that is why you gave me your jacket.
Jace: I don't get it thought.
Milani: What?
Jace: It's summer. Why is it cold?
Milani: It's nighttime you dumb butt.
Jace: Well...duh. Why do you think I had the coat?
Milani: So...you're not cold?
Jace: I'm fine. How about you? Do you need a hug or something?
Milani: Wait...what?
Jace: I could bring you to a toy shop and you can hug the biggest teddy bear there.
Milani: Why would I need to go to a toy shop? I'm fine.
Jace: If you say so. *puts an arm around Milani's shoulders*
Milani: I said I'm fine.
Jace: *pulls Milani closer to give her a hug*
Milani: Who are you and what have you done to Jace?
Jace: *releases hug* I'm still me.
Milani: You're acting nicer than usual.
Jace: Milani...you deserve a break from all the teasing I give you. And...I want to show you who I really am.
Milani: Well...I like you this way.
Jace: Thanks. And Milani...even if I'm not saying it all the time...I want you to know that you are amazing the way you are. You don't need to be classy and flirty. I find your usual nerdy and weird-in-a-good-way self really cute.
Milani: What?
Jace: Um...Milani...don't tell anyone about this...okay?
Milani: You're being too cheesy right now that I don't want anyone to know either.
Jace: Yeah.
Milani: And Jace...in spite of you constantly calling me Melanie, I still find you awesome.
Jace: I get that a lot.
Milani: Butt head.
Jace: Melanie.
Milani: Jake.
Jace: Finn the Human.
Milani: Princess Bubblegum.
Jace: Ice King.
Milani: Marceline.
Jace: Beemo.
Milani: Lady Rainicorn.
Jace: If I'm Jake...then who is my Lady Rainicorn?
Milani: Uh...someone.
Jace: Yeah. A very special someone. A very dense special someone...or I think she's dense.
Milani: I'm not dense, you idiot. I mean...
Jace: Turns out she's not dense.
Milani: Hey...is that your parents waiting for us?
Jace: Right. Let's go. *takes Milani's hand*
--
Back at the Milani place...
Jace: So...I'll be coming over again tomorrow, Milani. And I'm calling you Melanie again.
Milani: Yeah yeah. Um...I better go inside.
Jace: Right. Milani...thanks. Good night.
Milani: Good night, Jace.
Jace: Um...yeah. See ya.
Milani: See ya.
Jace: Wait...Milani...
Milani: Right...I still have your coat.
Jace: Well...that's not what I meant. I just want to tell you that we'll be back to normal again tomorrow.
Milani: Right.
Jace: So...good night.
Milani: *kisses Jace's cheek* Good night. *goes to her room*
Jace: *leaves with a smile on his face*
