It was a regular homo winter day- snow coating the ground like a very cold, wet blanket. Ralph went outside of his house and felt a cold gust. It was so cold Ralph could see his breath in the air. He thought to himself " I should go see him wink~. It's nice to visit a good friend\
So he decided to visit his good friend Jack Merridew in the city. He was wearing gloves and a Gucci oversized quilted logo jacquard shell hooded down jacket, which is quite gucc ngl.
He began the walk down the avenue into the shopping district so he could stop at 7-eleven. There, he got 2 boiled slushies. That was a custom to boil slushies in the winter, because a regular slushy would be too cold.
So he then continued his walk into Jack's neighborhood until he got to his door. For some reason- Ralph had no idea why- before knocking on the door, he was overcome with a sense of nervousness. Why did he feel this way? It was just like any other day visiting his "pal". Ralph shook his head in spite of himself and knocked.
Jack appeared from the door and looked "straight" at his "friend". He hadn't been expecting to see him today, since it was snowing quite a lot. Nobody in their right mind would have bothered to walk all this way in 2 celsius weather. Jack thought to himself for a second on why Ralph came but decided to just say hello.
"Oh, hello ralph!" said jack. "How's it going"
"P-pretty good" Ralph responded, shivering. The slushies sloshed around in the cups.
"Um, come inside( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)" he winked.
Ralph's face went a reddish pink color for a moment O///O, and went inside with his heart pounding. Then he handed Jack a boiled slushy once he was in the warmth of the inside of Jack's home.
"Why did you get hot slushies?" asked Jack, peering at the steamy, syrupy liquid.
"Uh. I like slushies. Duh" answered Ralph matter-of-factly.
"Oh, that makes sense. But, uh... No offense but this sounds kind of disgusting"
"Oh"
Jack felt bad for insulting Ralph's drink of choice.
"But, hey! Why don't we go somewhere else to hang out? Just us two." he said.
Ralph grinned. "Sure!"
"Okay, gimme a sec" Jack turned around to place the boiled slushy on the table, and went to put on his jacket and stuff. When he came back, Ralph couldn't help but notice how cute he looked in the scarf O///O.
"Why's your face red, Ralph?" he asked.
"I, um.. I'm still kinda cold from the walk, is all" he stuttered in response.
Jack nodded, and they started out the door.
As they walked down the street and back into the shopping district, Ralph couldn't help but notice how Jack 'accidentally' brushed up against him."Oops, sorry" he would say every time it happened.
Ralph would laugh it off every time. It was nothing, right? Of course.¯\_(// ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°//)_/¯
They reached the shopping district.
"So where should we go?" asked Ralph. Jack shrugged."You pick," he replied.
"Mmm, okay..." said Ralph, thinking. Why did he have to put the decision on him? It was a nice gesture, but what if he picked a place Jack didn't like? He already screwed up slushies.
Ralph looked at Jack silently. Jack wasn't paying attention, absent-mindedly picking at a fingernail. He looked at Jack's red hair, and couldn't help but be reminded of a particular business mascot...
