Everyone is in the training area, Mr Davenport comes down from the Hydraloop.
"hey guys!" Mr Davenport says "Mr Davenport what are you doing here I thought I was going to spend the
weekend with my mum?" Leo says..
"And I will, here, Tasha will be here shortly, so the good news. Family weekend!" Mr Davenport says, everyone looks at each other in silence.
"Family weekend!" Mr Davenport repeats.
"Do something, I'm getting so ashamed of him!" Harper tells the rest "Yey!!!' everyone pretends to be excited.
"come on! did you guys have any better plans?" Mr Davenport asks "definitely yes!" Chase says looking at his tablet.
"wait you have plans?" Bree questions "uh..yeah why? it's hard to believe?" Chase says.
"Yes, what are you going to do?" Bree says "I'm going to..." Chase thinks about what he's going to say and quickly looks at Harper.
"I'm going to work on a project of a...""I get it you have boring plans for your boring life" Bree says she rolls her eyes, Chase makes an annoyed face, Harper sighs.
"but you can uncheck that project of yours, what about the rest of you guys?" Mr Davenport says.
"big D honestly family weekends suck!" Leo says, Mr Davenport makes a pissed face "no offense" Bree says.
"but they're so annoying!" Adam says "no offense" Adam says "Look, saying "no offense" at the end of a sentence doesn't make it non-offensive!" Mr Davenport says.
"You push Mr Davenport" Harper says "look you're not even an official member of the family so shhh" Mr Davenport says, Harper nods.
"She's right, that's why no one can take it" Bree says "okay okay! I get it, I promise Tasha and I will spend the weekend with you, but we won't force any family activities you don't like" Mr Davenport says.
"for more tips on how to keep the family happy follow me!" Harper says taking a sip of water as if in toast, Mr Davenport looks at her seriously.
Tasha arrives and everyone goes to the common area to help her with the bags, Chase and Harper are still in the training area.
"That was close" Chase says "yeah, but they still think you have a boring life so we're in profit" Harper says, Chase smiles and shakes his head.
"but seriously, I think we need to talk about this" Chase says, Harper sits up "About what?" Harper says "About when are we going to tell them" Chase says.
"Oh Chase" Harper shakes her head "Calm down! I'm not saying it has to be now, but you know we're going to have to decide sooner or later" Chase says "yeah I know" Harper says.
She sighs "I like things the way they are" Harper says "Me too...but it kinda..""gets us stuck!?" Harper completes, Chase nods.
"If I could guarantee you that if we told them it wouldn't trigger a possible nuclear explosion, I'd say let's tell them as soon as possible...but I can't" Chase says.
"I think it wouldn't be THAT bad" Harper says "Do you know my family!?" Chase says, Harper laughs.
"We'll find the right moment" Harper says running a hand over his face, Chase smiles, they go to the common area with the rest.
......................................................................
Chase is in the mentors' room messing with a tablet, Harper and enters the room.
"there you are,i was looking for you" Harper says "why?" Chase asks.
"I need access to the academy's student roster for my security software to recognize them, but I don't have the password" Harper says "I'll release it to you" Chase says going to the computer, he puts in the password and taps it into the computer.
"so is Mr Davenport still going to do the family weekend schedule with you guys?" Harper asks "yeah, Thing isn't even him and his family is HIM and HIS family!" Chase says.
"Good thing I'm not "an official member of the family" so" Harper says,"He didn't mean it" Chase says "I know I know" Harper says.
"you're family" Chase says "I know, I'm fine" Harper says, Chase finishes fiddling with the software "are you sure" Chase says "yes Chase!" Harper insists.
Chase approaches her, Chase put his hand on her arm, stroking her arm "I already entered the password, was that all?" Chase says "Nope, I came here to see my boyfriend!" Harper says smiling looking him in the eyes.
Chase moves closer looking into her eyes "oh! that lucky Guy!" Chase smiles, she puts her hands his chest, he puts his hands on her face.
Chase leans in and kisses Harper gently, she puts her arms around his neck, and he pulls her closer by the waist.
Chase gives her several kisses gently, she kiss him back, they start kissing in a more passionate way.
Till Chase breaks the kiss and look at her in the eyes thoughtful for a second as if working up the courage to do something, Harper looks at him in the eyes as while messing with his hair.
Chase slowly Kisses her again but now he uses his tongue a bit, asking for permission, Harper hesitates for a second, he had never done that, but she let him in.
They both smile into the kiss Chase puts her hair back as they both return to the gentle kisses.
Suddenly Mr Davenport enters the dorm "Chase!?" Mr Davenport says shouts in confusion, Chase turns around releasing Harper raising his hands.
"Mr Davenport!" Chase screams "And Harper!?" Mr Davenport says scared
Harper and Chase look at each other
"Uh...and that's how you do a CPR Harper!" Chase says nervously trying to hide it "uh?oh! Yeah...um sure, thanks Chase this is valuable information since... We live on an Island" Harper says nervous.
Mr Davenport stands staring at the two with wide eyes, Chase looks at the ground extremely nervously, while Harper covers her face with her hand in embarrassment.
......................................................................
Mr Davenport paces up and down the room while Harper and Chase sit silently on the couch a few inches apart.
"Mr Davenport we can explain!" Chase says "Oh yeah explain it Chase!" Mr Davenport says.
"we were...uh" Chase says nervously "we are dating!" Harper says, Chase looks at her, she gestures that it's okay "yeah we are" Chase says.
"Since when?" Mr Davenport asks, Harper and Chase look at each other and take a deep breath "for a few months now, a lot of months!" Chase says hesitating.
"How many months!?" Mr Davenport says "uh...the same time we've been on the island" Harper says "What!?" Mr Davenport says.
"9 and a half months to be exact" Harper says "9 months if you count our first kiss" Chase tells her "I don't count that" Harper says "but I DO!" Chase says.
"And when did you guys plan to tell me?!" Mr Davenport says "Believe me it was never like this!" Harper says.
"We were going to tell you when we were ready..." Chase says "And when would that be? at your wedding!?" Mr Davenport says irritably.
"Calm down! part of the reason we didn't want to tell you is your reaction right now!" Harper says "Sorry it's just too much information!" Mr Davenport.
"Sorry Mr Davenport but we were just going to tell you and the rest, really, we talked about it" Chase says "yeah!" Harper says.
"we just wanted to keep it simple" Chase says "and you definitely weren't supposed to find out like that" Harper laughs, Chase glares at her "I mean... sorry Mr Davenport" Harper says.
"Do you guys really like each other?" Mr Davenport says sitting up "Yeah i l... really like her" Chase says nervously, Harper looks at him "me too" Harper says calmly.
"That's great, I'm happy for you!" Mr Davenport says, Harper and Chase smile.
"And about telling the rest, better not, keep this a secret for a while longer" Mr Davenport says "why?" Chase says "I don't want this to mess up the team dynamic" Mr Davenport says "Okay I think we can do that" Harper says, Chase nods.
"Are you sure because I just witnessed a scene that proves otherwise" Mr Davenport says "In our defense you're the one who shouldn't be here" Harper says "yeah I mean you've never heard of knocking before entering" Chase says.
"wait but wasn't Adam the one who likes her?" Mr Davenport says "yeah lika a ages ago!" Harper says.
"they're best friends now, where have you been all this time?" Chase says "Yeah everybody knew Chase had a crush on me!" Harper says.
"everybody!?" Chase ask "come on! Chase will say you didn't know!" Harper says.
"Anyway, don't worry Mr Davenport, We've always been very responsible about it" Chase says "yeah, it's not every couple who sits at a table for hours, deciding with pros and cons whether or not to date after a kiss" Harper says.
"Did you guys really do that?" Mr Davenport ask "hehe I know, romantic huh!" Chase says with an excited smile "no Chase it's not, just in your head" Harper says.
"Harper honestly, why!?" Mr Davenport says "I honestly don't know,but he looks so cute making lists" Harper says and puts her head on Chase's shoulder he smiles.
"Chase don't let that one slip, not every girl has head issues" Mr Davenport says and leaves, Harper and Chase give him an annoyed look.
......................................................................
Mr Davenport tries to accept the new information
"hey Donny?" Douglas enters the common area "oh hi Douglas" Mr Davenport says.
"are you ok? You look aloof" Douglas says "I'm just..."Mr Davenport thinks about Tell him,"I discovered something...but I can't tell" Mr Davenport says.
"something? About what?" Douglas says "okay I'll tell you but no one can know" Mr Davenport says "I'm not a very reliable guy Donny" Douglas says.
"I know But this isn't a state secret either...but don't tell Chase and Harper that!" Mr Davenport says "More secret!?" Douglas says.
"I found out today that...Chase and Harper are dating!" Mr Davenport says excitedly, Douglas makes an excited face.
"Chase!? Dating!?" Douglas says excitedly "Yes! The impossible has happened!" Mr Davenport says, Douglas' smile fades as he realizes.
"Wait? With Harper?" Douglas ask "yes!" Mr Davenport says "Chase and Harper?" Douglas says "Come on, Douglas, it's not that hard to understand, I know it's hard very hard to believe but.." Mr Davenport says.
"No, not Harper!" Douglas says "Why not?" Mr Davenport says "My little girl dating Chase!" Douglas says irritably.
"Your little girl? She's not your daughter!" Mr Davenport says "but I feel like it's Donny, that girl and I have a connection, like father and daughter" Douglas says.
"Douglas this is ridiculous" Mr Davenport says "I just want to understand Chase's intentions with her!" Douglas says "It's Chase, his intention must be to give her a physics slide show" Mr Davenport says.
"I still don't like it" Douglas says "Douglas pay close attention to me" Mr Davenport says putting his hands on Douglas' shoulder "you're not her father!" Mr Davenport says.
"we have a deal and in that deal I'm going to act like a father to her! That includes scaring her boyfriend, It's an experience every parent should go through" Douglas says "that's the
"don't talk like that,That girl needs a father, Donny and I'll be him" Douglas says and leaves, Mr Davenport sees him leave with a confused look.

"what are we going to do?" Harper crosses her arms "About?" Chase says "Mr Davenport!" Harper says annoyed "he knows, that's all,no big deal" Chase says.
"Oh yeah, now every time I see him in the halls he gives me this little smile and makes a shh sign!" Harper says making the sign.
"Does he just do this for you? At me he winks and gives me a thumbs up, taps my shoulder and says "that's my

"Chase, I have an idea but you're not going to like it" Harper says, Chase nods.
"Pretend we broke up!" Harper says "No!" Chase says "I'm sorry babe but your dad is really weird...like he scares me" Harper says.
"I know but breaking up is something I don't even want to pretend" Chase says "I know sorry" Harper hugs him.
"And about my dad scaring you...wanna talk about your dad? Harper KRANE?" Chase says "Fair" Harper says.
Mr Davenport walks in "hi lovebirds!" Mr Davenport says "here we Go!" Chase tells Harper silently.
Mr Davenport hugs them both "you guys have plans right" Mr Davenport says "uh..actually yeah" Chase says "what?" Mr Davenport says "no big deal" Harper says dryly.
"just...dinner" Chase says "oh great,That's perfect because I have an idea!" Mr Davenport says excitedly "oh no" Harper says.
"what do you guys think about a couples date huh!? Me and Tasha and you two!" Mr Davenport says excitedly, Chase and Harper stare at him in astonishment.
"um...This idea is.." Chase looks at Harper "I don't even know what to say....Mr Davenport" Harper says nervously.
"amazing huh, I think we were going to have a lot of fun!" Mr Davenport says "Are you sure!?" Harper says.
"look Mr Davenport we're flattered you invited us but..." Chase says "we don't want to go" Harper says "Harper!" Chase says poking her arm.
"Oh I see I'm moving too fast and you guys are not ready for this" Mr Davenport says, Harper and Chase look at each other "yup" they both say.
"It's okay I understand,You guys need some time you weren't prepared to tell" Mr Davenport says "Exactly Mr Davenport" Chase says nervously.
"That's my boy!" Mr Davenport taps Chase on the shoulder "I told you I'm happy for you guys!" Mr Davenport says "yes you made that clear" Harper says.
"By the way have sense, you two!" Mr Davenport says "What could we do?" Harper says, Mr Davenport leaves.
......................................................................
"that was weird" Chase says "pretty weird" Harper says "but..." Chase says "Chase, no, not a chance!" Harper says.
"I felt bad for him" Chase says, Harper looks around and takes Chase by the arm and leads him into an empty room.
"Chase I'm not going on a double date!" Harper says angrily "It's just dinner" Chase says "What are we going to do on dinner with Mr Davenport and Tasha! Not to mention that she'll find out too!" Harper says.
"yeah!,it's gonna be boring but... maybe this is good for us" Chase says "how?" Harper says.
"maybe an occasion like this is a way for us to prepare for the moment we're going to tell others" Chase says "You really think of everything don't you" Harper smiles "It's a blessing and a curse" Chase smiles.
"Thing is...it's a dinner with your dad Chase, that would be a big step if you think about it" Harper says "I...I know, and?" Chase ask "that kind of...scares me " Harper says silently.
Chase smiles "Me too, but... it's a good fear" Chase says shyly, Harper smiles,She walks over and grabs his chin pulling his face closer and kisses him gently, she nuzzles his nose and sighs.
"Fine let's go on this date" Harper says "you are amazing sweetheart" Chase says hugging her and kissing her neck, Harper smiles.
"yeah okay okay, i know,But you owe me one!" Harper says irritably, Chase smiles
excitedly.
......................................................................
Harper and Chase leave where they were and go to the common area, Douglas appears walking quickly apparently annoyed.
"CHASE!" Douglas says "Douglas!?" Chase says, Douglas pulls Chase by the arm pulling him away from Harper.
"Stay away from her smarty!" Douglas says "what!?" Harper says "I know what you two are up to!" Douglas says "how is it?" Chase says.
"yeah, I know about you guys and your secret dating!" Douglas says "WHAT!?" Harper and Chase say "oh no!" Harper says rolling her eyes.
"Oh yeah!" Douglas says "that doesn't explain why you're about to rip my arm off!" Chase say "It's just a warning!" Douglas says "what?" Chase says scared.
"if you do anything to hurt Harper you'll deal with me boy!" Douglas says "what are you talking about?" Chase says trying to let go of his arm.
"Douglas releases him! Are you crazy!?" Harper says, Douglas releases Chase "I'm sorry I'm just doing my duty as a...considerate father" Douglas says.
"What!? What the heck is this!?" Chase says pulling himself together "seriously Douglas, you weren't supposed to take this so seriously" Harper says.
"It's inevitable, when I look at you I think of all the things Krane said about you when you were just a little girl,a little genius the little version of me..." Douglas says.
"what about me!? Your real son!" Chase says "Oh you don't even consider me a father, you have Donny you always had, I promise I'll be the father Harper never had and I'll make sure it stays that way" Douglas says.
"This is crazy" Chase says "Douglas I really appreciate what you're doing, but I think you're taking it too far" Harper says "That's what a father does, it scares his daughter's boyfriends, doesn't it?" Douglas says.
"They also support their son's dating"Chase says "Go complain to Donny, Chase!" Douglas says.
"look it doesn't necessarily have to be like that, after all my boyfriend is Chase and you know Chase...i mean He's your son, your real son, not some weird consideration thing " Harper smiles sarcastically putting a hand on Chase's shoulder.
"Yeah, but honest girl, you can do better" Douglas says, Chase rolls his eyes "Douglas!" Harper says "okay I get it, but take good care of her, this girl is very special and she deserves everything! She is the smartest and strongest girl I know so she must be aware that you have to be good enough to deserve her" Douglas says to Chase.
"wow Douglas, thanks" Harper says "and if you're not good for her, you'll have to deal with me" Douglas threatens Chase "it won't be necessary, I'm aware of all that, and I'm going to try to be the boyfriend she deserves because...she's amazing" Chase smiles.
"good, okay" Douglas says he sighs "and by the way, that's my boy!" Douglas hugs Chase and smiles, Harper laughs.
"You won't tell anyone!" Harper says "relax your secret is safe with me" Douglas says "thanks" Chase says, Harper hugs them.
"you guys are really weird, I love it" Harper says, Douglas and Chase look at each other and smile.
