<>austons pov<>

"you're taking maggie on a date?" mitch said

"yeah, if thats okay with you." i said

"man, thats more than okay. just treat her like the lady she is, nothing less because she will tell me everything and family comes first."

"yeah i know. thats why i need you to watch the girls."

"absolutely. and i want her home as a reasonable time. no drinking, no drugs." he said sternly

"yes sir. ill be by tonight to get her." i said before leaving.

i walked out to my car when mitch came running out to me

"what happened while me and steph where gone?"

"nothing." i lied

"auston dont lie to be, youve known her for 2 weeks and you're taking her on a date? you came back to toronto to take her on a date during the offseason."

"she uh, she shared her story with me." i said

"she did?" mitch asked

"yeah. makes me love her more."

"man, shes good."

"what do you mean by that?" i tilted my head

"she has depression and doesn't really like men."

"those are things we can work on." i said getting in my car.

"remember what i said." he pointed

"i got it."

i left their house and went back to mine.

auston: date tonight at 6?

auston: mitch said he and steph will watch the girls.

maggie: yes!

auston: ill pick you up around 6 then

maggie: see you then

maggie: hey, what do i wear?

auston: im not great on womams fashion, im wearing jeans if that helps. im thinking dinner and a movie

maggie: sounds lovely!

around 5 i got ready then headed over to get maggie

i walked into a house of chaos.

crying babies and dinner being made

"oh, sorry auston, the girls didnt take a nap so they're tired."

she tried to feed them dinner but steph told her to go finish getting ready.

i followed maggie into her room, i sat on her bed as she did the last few touches on her appearance.

i looked around her room, pictures of her & family sat on the dresser.

"you ready?" she smiled

i looked over at her, she wore ripped jeans with a plain black crop top and heels.

"lets go." i smiled big

we walked out to the living room, "yall wanna get a picture?" mitch gasped

i looked at her as she smiled at me, "might as well."

we posed for a picture before mitch smiled at us, "alright you kids be safe tonight! auston get her home as a reasonable time! no bars, no clubs, no drugs!"

"yes sir."

"you get the girls to bed on time! and they dont need a bath tonight and-" maggie stressed
