The cold air numbs my finger tips as I hold in my breath.  Releasing it, I watch as my breath is shown in my face as a small smile holds on my face.

"Whatcha smiling bout?"  Ed chuckles with his hands stuffed in his big coat.  I tighten the scarf around my neck and fix my hat as I slowly walk towards him.

"I dunno."  I shrug but it looks like I twitched as the coat covers my movements.

"Okay,"  He nods leaning on the icy pole as I slowly giggle from remembering a movie when the little kid got his tongue stuck on the pole.  "What?" 

"Just thinking."  I mumble kicking the snow as it rests on my ugg's.  

"Anyways,"  He cocks his head as he raises an eyebrow at my happiness.  He really shouldn't be surprised but okie-dokie.  "Are we going to head to the cafe, or not?"  Scratching my hair, I nod.

"If you want, but I need to ask Harry."  Harry and I have been friends for a while, he had taken me to a park since he wanted to draw some shit but I wanted to play.  Don't judge.  I see his homemade fluffy green hat, I smile.  Turning, I see Ed rolling his eyes and fixing his coat.

"Well, I'll meet you there?"  

"Ya."  I smile at him as he smiles back and walks back to his car.  

"Hey Leigh."  Harry smiles cheekily as my smile widens.

"Hi Harry."  There was silence for a few minutes as I broke it trying not to create the awkwardness like last time.  "Did you finish your sketch yet?"  His face lights up for a second and nods excitedly. 

"Yeah, I did!"

"Well, can I see it?"  I ask him as he nods and pulls his folder out from his arm.  Opening it up, I stand on my tippy toes and look up.

"Oh, sorry."  He blushes and lowers it as I stand on my heels and check out the work.  Honestly, it sucked.  Really bad.  So bad that I felt bad for him.  So bad that my little niece could do better, so bad that- nevermind, you get the point.  It was fucking bad.

"Um,"  I am lost for words as he smiles at me.  Should I tell him the truth, or lie?  We're friends, what doesn't kill ya makes you stronger, thanks Kelly!  "Honestly,"  I begin but stop.

"Yeah?"  He smiles.

"Wanna go to the cafe with Ed and I?"  I ask ignoring his question.  He honestly worked so hard to do that.  We've been at the park for at least an hour in a half.  His smile drops a little as he nods.

"Sure."  He mumbles putting his art back in his folder and slowly walks to the car with his head down.  Thanks Harry, now I feel like shit.

AT THE CAFE


"And I told her, get lost!"  A group of boys sat in the corner as they busted out laughing.  After Harry had opened the door for me, I had walked to the counter.  Taking off my coat as the place seemed to get hotter by the second, I notice the mop of red hair in the corner.

"Eddie!"  I shout as the head pops up and he smiles at me.  I wave and turn to see the group staring at me.  "What?"  I ask smiling at them.  A boy with a blonde quiff, clearly dyed, smirks at me.

"Nothing much little lady."  What the fuck, I'm not even that short.  Rolling my eyes, I stared at the menu.  

"Whatcha getting?"  His voice startles me as I jump up in fright.  I'm not gonna scream, not that serious.

"I dunno."  I purse my lips together and squint my eyes so I can see the board clearer.  "Hey Eddie."  I poke his cheek as he smiles at me.  

"Hurry up, I'm paying."  Biting my lip, I nod then scan the menu.

"Ok, but, you made this choice on your own.  I'm warning you if the price is high it's-"  I ramble on as he cuts me off.

"Shut the fuck up before I change my mind."  I nod and poke his chest.

"Okie dokie."


So, I had ordered soup, sandwich, hot chocolate, and a cookie.  

Where's Harry?  I think as I look around. 

 "Have you seen Harry?"  I ask Ed as he rolls his eyes and bites in to his sandwich.  

"Burnt Ramen head?  No."  He continues eating as I shove a spoonful of soup in to my mouth and get up.  

"I'z be back."  I skip down the steps from our area and swallow the soup keeping my eye out for burnt ramen head.   Movement is slowed as I enter the smaller booth areas and shit.

"Haaarrryyyyyyyyyyyy."  I call out as some people turn their heads and turn back around.

"Haaaarrrryyyyy???"  I call again as I hand go's over my mouth.

"Lllleeeeiiiggggghhhhhh."  He calls back as I lick his hand.  "Ew, what the fuck?"

"Don't scare me."  I stab his coat covered coat.  I stare at his pinkish looking face and grabs his wrist.  "C'mon, we have food."
