Mom and I arrived at this small ice cream shop. It had a couple cars in the parking lot and I already had this gut feeling that I didn't like. I don't like being around people at all.
We walk in and I see these two people eating ice cream. The one with the short hair is eating mint ice cream. My favorite. The girl he's with is eating sherbet ice cream.
I walk up to the counter to order my ice cream and I go to speak but my mom beat me to it
" yeah I'd like to get a large rocky road ice cream and Ashley... what would you like?"
" uhm I want the mint kind." I said softly
" what size ma'am?" The lady asked
"Oh medium." I said
We go to sit down and as I turn around the guy I saw when i walked in was right behind me with his ice cream and I knock it right out of his hands
"Oh my god I'm so sorry!" I said while going to get paper towels.
" I'll pay for another one if you'd like"
" it's fine, I was throwing it away." He said while laughing
" I'm miles, What might be your name?"
" uhm I'm Ashley. I just moved here with my mom from Missouri. I live down the road."
"Ohh well I do too. I live by a purple house."
" woah. That purple house is mine"
" well nice to meet you neighbor. We're gonna get going but hopefully I'll see you around."
"Yeah. That'd be awesome." I said with a smile.
Miles has his smile that's contagious. It lights up the room. I really hope I see him around. I need to hangout with people other than my mom.
We sit down to eat and all I can think about is his laugh and smile.
