I was shopping at Walmart in the ice cream section. I was looking for my favorite ice cream flavor Reese's peanut butter cups by Breyes blast! (product placement). I saw that there was only one left so I went for it.
Unknowingly some jerk had the same idea.
He grabbed it first not noticing that I was about to take it. So I said to myself as he was walking away "dang, I was really looking forward to those".
He turned around, I was shocked he heard me. he then flew down the isle to give it back.
"oh I'm so sorry I didn't see you" he said with this cute smile. I couldn't help but blush.
"its alright its yours now" I managed to get out between chuckles. I laugh when I'm nervous.
We ended up talking and walking throughout the store looking for my mom which I had lost in the process of getting the ice cream. Of course stopping at my favorite places in the store like the book section and the electronic one.
Turns out he's funny, driven, and smart on top of being a nice guy. He's perfect, but I only just met him so I mean he's as perfect as he can get.
Finally I found my mom at the pet supplies. "Alright I guess, this is were I leave you" I said unsatisfied.
"yeah, it appears so. Well remember me if you ever need help defending your ice cream from the likes of me" he responded.
"I think I'll take my chances if it's against the likes of you" I sprang back not really realizing what I said.
He smiled and that's when I realized I said something "I'm sorry I didn't know what..." the sound of thunder cut me off.
"looks like it started raining. I'd better go before its too bad. here my number. if you ever feel like sharing your ice cream" he said as he start sprinting away.
"by the way my name is August" he said running down the isle almost running into several shopping carts.
"wait, what ice cream?" I said trying to get his attention but he just kept running.
I looked down and somehow he put the ice cream in my basket when I wasn't looking and I didn't pay mind to it at all. I couldn't help but smile and hope that this wasn't just a fun time or that he was just wasted breath.
The Rain continued to fall.
