Licorice Buddies- IcelandxReader

(*Reader's P.O.V*)

    People say that it is childish, but no matter what your favorite part of the day was going to the candy store after going to school. I started going in first grade and have been doing it in my second year of high school. No matter what comments I hear or what I have to do that day this will be my first subject of the day! I walk down main street until I reach the end with the small sweets store which I like to call home. I walk in as always, with the little kids looking at me weirdly, they may think I am old or something.

    "Hello, Miss (Name)!" Says the over happy saleswoman, she has been nice to me ever since I first came in here. She would throw discounts at me a lot, but I usually would never accept it, she needs the money more than I. 

    "Good afternoon, Mrs. Connors!" I say as I walk past the tea, only tea freaks actually use the leaves, the little knickknacks, I have a collection of little teddy bears and finally to my favorite part, the candy section! I look at my options and suddenly realize something different about this scene. The candy is in the same place, the floor boards are still a bit rickety, what could it be? I look to my left to see another student here, Oh I know him! He is the exchange student from Iceland! I wouldn't think to find him here, he just seemed so...... proper, I mean he like sits straight, always uses complete sentences and always seems proper. What was that name....... Emil! I look back to my candy, but I see through the corner of my eye he is looking at me now. I feel my cheeks heat up, I usually don't like getting a lot of attention. And maybe because I think that he is a little bit cute...... I mean come on his violet eyes are really to get lost in, his light hair practicably illuminates in the sun and his unfamiliar ways are really adorable. 

   "......Hello" He says to me in a quiet tone "I am Emil....." He seems to look down, why would he do that. 

   "Hi, I am (Name)!" I turn to him and hold my hand out, he shakes it quickly and it all seems to get silent after that. I mean I do have more things to say, but I don't want to seem like a childish dork in front of him. I mean maybe he is just here because he is getting a gift for his mother or something like that. I can ask him, but would that be weird. You know we have been standing here in silence for like three minutes anyways, so I guess I might already be strange to him. Whatever.

   "So what brings you here, like what are you getting?" I say to him facing him once again.

   "Well I didn't know where else I can get some licorice, it is my favorite snack."

   "Woah, that is really weird because that is my favorite too, I always come here to get it after school~!" I put a smile on my face and grab the tin box where my favorite brand was kept in. 

   "Well, I never really bought any from here before, is this what you think is good?" He said grabbing the same kind then me.

   "Of course, why would I pick it if I didn't like it~!" I said, I am trying to seem confident, I think guys like that.

   "Well I guess I will buy it too." I nod and we start walking towards the register. I let him go first.

   "You know I can pay for yours too," He turned around to say to me. 

   "Oh there is no need for th..." I say, but I already seen he has already paid for them, I sigh and say "Well, thank you then."

   "You are welcome," He says while grabbing the bag from the front desk lady. We both walk outside, normally I would sit down in the bench in front of the store and today shouldn't make a difference. I get into my normal spot and open my tin. Before I even notice, Emil sat down next to me. He opened his tin and starting eating his. He quickly smiles at me, he must like it since he starts eating more. Once again we are in a awkward silence while eating, wait maybe he likes the quiet. After a little while we start talking about more things, school, our families, he has a older brother, and he starts talking about Iceland. It was like he was sharing his feelings with me, I think I like it that way. After a while we did finish our tins and we both throw them away. I look at my watch, I have one hour until I have to go to work.

   "Emil, I a sorry, but I need to go now, but it was really lovely to talk to you." I smile and he nods, I start to walk.

   "(Name)?" He says and I turn around to see him smiling at me.

   "I think we should do this more often,"
