Not a shorty anymore

IV[The ice cream shop]

We made it to the ice cream shop, "Alrighty we are here." Dunkleman gets up and holds out his hand for me. I grab his hand.

We walk into the ice cream shop, "So what do you want?" I look at my feet, "I've uh- never had ice cream before.." his eyes widen, "Then I have the perfect flavor for you to try."

After a couple of minutes he comes back with a thing of mint chocolate chip ice cream, "Here. Try it" I pick up the spoon and start eating it, "It's not bad." I smile at him lightly.

He hasn't taken a single bite. He's just stared at me, "Um. Earth to Dunkleman." I snap my fingers in his face, "Huh? Oh yeah. It's my favorite flavor."

He shakes his head, "Did you see the new exchange student?" I raise one eyebrow, "No?" He puts his hands on the table, "All the girls are totally drooling over him."

I laugh and take another bite, "I'm not. I have a crush on another kid anyways." Of course I'm talking about him. He rolls his eyes, "He's taller then Jodie, and I have to live with him."

I look at him laughing, "I've lived with Jodie my whole life-" he cuts me off, "I know but he's like 7 feet tall." I look at him in a 'seriously' attitude, "Dunkleman. You know he can't be that tall."

He nods, "He is. I asked him. And he said in his Swedish voice, 'Oh I'm 7 feet tall.'" He said that in the worst Swedish accent I've ever heard, "That was a terrible impression."

He sits back, "Are you done?" I nod and throw the cup away, "Yeah. Let's go."

————————————————————————

We got to my house and we stood at the front door for a bit, "Thanks for taking me to ice cream." I break the silence, "Oh. No problem." Once again he was staring at me.

I smirk at him, "You keep staring." His face goes crimson, "I-I uh. Hehe" he's being awkward and stuttering so just grab his face and kiss him, "I like you too. I'll see you tomorrow in math." His eyes go wide and he doesn't blink, "Uh-Uh yeah. Cya Marina"

He runs off and gets on his bike. Once I can't see him anymore I go inside. I close the door smiling and slide down. Harper comes running down with Jodie behind her.

"Well?? How'd it go?" Jodie hits her head, "Ow. Yeah how was it?" I just smile at them, I grab my backpack off the floor and run to my room.
