We walked into the house, just to see my parents staring at the door that we just walked through. They knew what I was asking her when I asked to talk to her just over ten minutes ago. They wanted to know what was going on didn't they?

"Hey mom, dad…" I said.

"Want to tell us what is going on, Sean?" asked my dad. I didn't know what his reaction would be, even though he said that I could ask her.

"She said yes?" I said.

"Good. Now stop moping around and help me with the mashed potatoes for dinner." My mom stated. I started to laugh.

"You knew what her answer would be, didn't you?"

"Yes, yes we did. Her parents told us of her crush on you when she moved in. We knew what the answer would be," said dad.

"Okay, then… To the mashed potatoes, then, I guess, mom?"

Later that evening, I knew that I had to tell the other boys what was going on. I knew that Evan and Finn would not take it well. Especially Evan, as I was taking a potential notch off his bedpost, so to speak. Finn would eventually be okay with it, but I knew that it would put a strain on our relationship none the less.

"Hey guys, I need to speak to you! All of you, even you, Ian, Caleb!" I yelled into the basement/game room. All of them turned their heads to look at me. They decided that they would hear me out and join me in the corner that I was in.

"What's up?" asked Finn.

"I have a date with a girl this weekend…" I started. They all started to cheer, and then they got confused. They didn't know of any girl that I had been seen around, other than Megan, and in their minds, me dating Megan was preposterous.

"Who is she, dude?" asked Doug. "We wanna know!" Everyone agreed with him, even the runts.

"Well you all know her."

"Okay? Even the runts?" asked Evan.

"Yes, even the runts."

"Who is she? I mean the only girls that they would know that aren't their ages are Megan, mom, and our grandmothers," stated Finn.

"Well you just listed her name."

"Wait! You have a date with MEGAN? The very same Megan that lives under our roof currently? What the hell? You are like four years older than her! Isn't there some law against that?" exploded Evan. "Couldn't you get into a whole hell of a lot of trouble for it, just with our parents alone?"

"They know. Her parents know. The law states that an adult can date a minor as long as the minor's parents/guardians consent to it. Meaning both our parents and her parents have to be consenting, especially since we are under the same roof, currently. Besides, she has apparently had a crush on me for forever so it didn't take all that much convincing for her father to give me permission."

"What the hell, man? Did you even think that maybe Finn or I wanted to date her? Those of us who are her age? Unlike you?" asked Evan.

"Yes, I did. I even asked her. She was free to tell me know when I asked her out. So don't go yelling at me. And don't go giving her a hard time, either. She doesn't deserve it. She is free to choose who she wants to date. If she goes out once with me and decides that she doesn't like it, I'm not going to push it. However, that does not give you guys permission to try to sabotage the date or do any mind games with her. Got it? I have told our parents what I was going to talk to you guys about, and they know what to do to let me know what is going on."
