the new girl

Chapter 7

As we walk into the shop I grab v's arm and run up to the old lady at the counter. "Aw! What a cute couple..." she says. I blush shyly and quickly move my hand away from his arm. V clears his throat and asks, "What flavor do you want?"

I look up at the choices on the menu, "Bubblegum fairy princess pink." He looks at me and says, "Good choice. That's what jimin usually gets. I'll get chocolate!!" I go to grab my wallet from my bag but v already paid the five dollars...oh well. "I'll go look for a place to sit." I say as I walk off.

I find a spot next to the window. After playing on my phone for about a minute, v walks over to me with our ice creams and sets them down on the table and takes his seat. We sat eating our ice creams in awkward silence, not having anything to say.

I look up for a second to see if he was looking at me, which He was. As soon as we made direct eye contact, he cleared his throat nervously and looked down. To my surprise, he spoke, "So, how do you like the school so far?"

I smiled, swallowing another bite of ice cream, then reply, "I like it! It's going to be even better when Kiley loosens up! Not that she isn't outgoing or anything." He laughs and says, "She practically crushed jimin! Not her fault though, I mean you did push her into him. Why did you do that by the way?"

Swallowing my ice cream I say, "I saw suga staring at her, I pushed her, thinking she would fall into him..not jimin." He looks at me and bitterly asks, "why were you looking at suga?" Uhm....OK. "well..I guess it was because I wanted to make sure everyone was there..why? Are you jealous?"  I ask while laughing.

He rolls his eyes saying, "No. I wasn't. whatever, anyway how's your ice cream?" I scoot out of my booth and say, "It was really good! Too bad I'm finished. Anyway! I figured out that I wanted to go to the park! Are you done?" He stands up and grabs my trash along with his and throws out cups away.

I walk up to him and say, "I...yeah, thanks!" He grabs my wrist and pulls me out of the ice cream shop. I look at v and ask, "What time is it?" He looks at his phone saying, "Like five minutes until nine." "We spent an hour just eating ice cream...?"  "I guess so. Anyway, let's get to the park!! It's like a fifteen minute walk from here.."
