"So Jack asked Charlotte out, and she said yes." Danny told Linda as he changed for bed.

"I know. He's so nervous- it's so cute!" She wrinkled her nose while she smiled widely in a way that made Danny's smile widen.

"He didn't know where to take her. I suggested pizza and a movie-"

"A stellar choice."

"But he said everyone does that." He tossed his clothes into the hamper in the bathroom, "so I asked what she liked. He said she liked ice skating, so they're going ice skating."

"I love ice skating." Linda suddenly groaned, "I can't believe he's old enough to date. He's making me feel old."

"You're not old."

"No, but that doesn't stop me from feeling old.... ice skating, huh?"

"I remember the first time that we went ice skating together. That's when I learned you were obsessed with Stork's Orange Creams."

"Not obsessed." She crossed her arms, looked away from him. "it's simply a fact that they're the best chocolates in the tri-state area. Best in the world, even!"

"Are you still bitter about the place shutting down?"

"Very."

He laughed, and she joined along. They snuggled into the covers together. "Linda?"

"Hm?"

"I feel old too."

Linda looked up at him and laughed, shaking her head. "I wonder if the old man is still alive. You know, the one who made the chocolates?"

"Why wouldn't he be?"

"He was ancient when we were teens!"

"Ancient?"

"Well... maybe not ancient. But to my teenage mind, he was really old."

"You know... we could always chaperone."

"Chaperone?" Linda repeated. "That'll convince him we're not cool." Her voice had a big hint of sarcasm.

"He already thinks we're not cool."

"True." She smiled when Danny started kissing her neck.

"Maybe we can recreate our date there."

She moaned, "minus the separate homes."

"Except that."

"Maybe an addition to the end of the night? You'll be cold after all."

He kissed her, "we'll see." Which meant hell yeah  if someone didn't decide to kill someone else.
