"you've never had cake batter ice cream?" she asks, taking a bite with gummy bears. they've both been sitting on the couch all day with food and movies, currently on the third godzilla with a pint of ice cream each. her feet are in his lap fitfully.
"i never said i didn't have it," he responds, taking a bite of his moose tracks. "i just don't like boring flavors."
vivian sputters, throwing a handful of gummy bears at him. "cake batter is not boring!"
he grabs his spoon and pulls her so they're chest-to-chest, raising it to look menacing, yet instead of hitting her with his spoon, he brushes his lips against hers. "thank you for today."
"it's what you do for the ones you love," she shrugs simply with a smile. "and i am definitely in love with you, preston rhee."
he kisses her again with a joyous laugh, the lingering of cake batter ice cream flooding through his tastebuds.
