"So wait, you did what?" Pony laughed.

"I was like eight!" You snorted. "I thought I was such a good hairstylist, so I cut my hair for picture day."

"And was it a success?"

"Are you kidding?" You giggled. "Of course not."

"You'll have to show me a picture some time."

"No! You'd make fun of me forever!"

"I'm gonna do that regardless, but-"

You nudged him, still laughing.

Once the laughter had died down, you turned to Pony. "We should go out and do something."

"Like what?"

"Like get ice cream."

He smiled at you.

The two of you were walking on the sidewalk, hand-in-hand, eating your ice creams. Pony was telling a story.

"So then I told Curly that if he fell, we'd all pay." Pony states.

"And?"

"And he fell."

"Off a telephone pole?"

"Yeah. Tim yelled at both of us all the way to the hospital."

You laughed. "Idiots."

"What'd you just say?"

"Oh, nothing. Nothing."

"Oh, really?"

You nodded and he took his ice cream and smeared it on your face.

"Pony!" You squealed.

He laughed and you went to do the same to him, but he pulled away from you and ran.

You had to chase him, which was hard because not only were his legs longer than yours, but he also ran hella fast.

You ran a little ways, then chucked the whole cone at him. You missed, but the both of you continued laughing.

Pony went back over to you, so he could properly walk you home, holding your hand tightly.

"I'm sorry for smearing ice cream in your face." Pony tells you, stifling a laugh.

"You're an ass." You reply. He looked at you for a long time, then you smiled. "But it's ok....I guess."

"That's good. I wouldn't want you to be mad at me." He tells you.

You nudged him again before he laughed and kissed you.
