Audrey's POV

"Are you kidding me?!" My dad yelled at Henry. "That's your teacher, Miss Shapen."

"My single teacher." Henry winked.

"Oh, I'm so surprised." My dad said sarcastically.

"Come on!" Henry whined. "If you have dinner with her, she'll change my F into an A."

"You got an F?" I gasped.

"Hey, I got a good idea!" My dad turned to Henry.

"What?" Henry smiled.

"Why don't I have Valentine's dinner with your mom?" My dad smiled.

"No!" Henry objected.

"All right." My dad scoffed. "I'll have dinner with Miss Shapen."

"Yes!" Henry exclaimed. "Ooh and she loves chicken so feed her some chicken."

"All right." My dad rolled his eyes.

"Ray, I will never forget this." Henry patted my dad's arm.

"Neither will I." My dad slapped Henry's hand.

I looked over and saw Schowz walk in. "Hey, look at me. I'm Mr. Valentine's."

"Ew!" I gagged.

"That is bad." Henry looked at Schowz's suit.

"Yikes." My dad looked at Schowz. "That's what you're wearing for Gerta?"

"Oh, yes. Gerta will love this." Schowz walked over to us.

"Who's Gerta?" Henry and I both asked at the same time.

"Jinx!" I yelled. "You owe me a soda."

"Dang it! Every single time!" Henry walked over to the snack machine. "Soda."

"Soda." The snack machine said and Henry got the soda.

"Here." Henry handed me the soda.

"Thanks." I smiled. "But I don't want it."

"Are you serious?!" Henry yelled and took back the soda.

"Anyways, Gerta is Schowz's date, who's actually a— hey, Schowz!" My dad looked at Schowz.

"What?" Schowz asked.

"Our friend Henry here waited until today to ask a girl out for Valentine's." My dad walked to Schowz.

"What? That's not how girls work." Schowz looked at Henry.

"I know that now." Henry huffed.

"So, why don't you let Henry take Gerta out for dinner tomorrow night?" My dad suggested.

"Me take Gerta?" Henry tilted his head.

"No way!" Schowz protested. "Gerta is for Schowz only."

"Come on, just lend her to Henry for one night!" My dad pleaded.

"This conversation is weird." I sighed.

"You don't understand." My dad shot me a look before turning back to Schowz. "Just call Gerta in here."

"Sure." Schowz turned to the back door. "Gerta!" Then Schowz started to speak in a foreign language. The back door opened and I see a angry person walk over to us.

Gerta started to speak into a foreign language. "Gerta!"

"Uhh, I'm pretty sure she's not my type." Henry slowly said.
