--Lydia's POV--
"I'm surprised nobody has run up to you screaming." I say to Josh.

"Well, that's a good thing right?" He laughs.

"I guess." I shrug.

"So, how've you been?" He asks.

"I've been alright. I was surprised when you came." I say.

"Yeah it was kind if last minute but I wanted to see you." He says.

"Well, we haven't talked for a while." I mumble.

"Yeah about that... I'm really sorry." He says.

"Sorry for what exactly?" I ask.

"You know, not talking to you." He says.

"Yeah, what was that about?" I ask.

"I don't know, I guess I was just jealous." I shrug.

"Jealous? Of what me? Please I'm not worth being jealous of." I laugh.

"Yes you are. You're funny, pretty, and kind." He says.

I can't help but blush. No stop it Lydia, you have Geoffrey. I scold myself.

"Look, Josh I-"

"I know what your gonna say, you have a boyfriend. I've heard it all." He shrugs.

"You've been rejected before?" I stare at him.

"Heck yeah, believe it or not some people can resist all this." He laughs.

I laugh. Josh is a good guy, but I can't help but think he came here for a reason.

"So, why did you come back?" I ask.

"I'll have to get back to you on that one." He says.

"You don't know?" I raise an eyebrow.

"Honestly, no. I had no real reason to come back. I just had to." He shrugs.

"Oh." I nod not knowing what to say.

"You hungry?" He asks.

"Yeah kind of." I say.

"Well let's go then." He points to the food court.

"Alright." I say and we head to the food court.

--Josh's POV--
"Why are you staring at me?" Lydia asks.

"Just to annoy you." I laugh.

"Is there something on my face?" She rubs her hands on her face.

"No." I shake my head and laugh.

"Then leave me and my burger alone." She laughs and takes another bite.

I can't handle not being with her. Is that strange? Ugh I feel like a chick with all my problems.

"Josh?" Lydia snaps me out of my daze.

"Huh? What?" I ask.

"You look upset, you alright?" She asks.

No not really, "Oh yeah I'm fine." I say.

Without even realizing she reaches over and took a french fry from my plate.

"Hey!" I whine.

"Hey." She smirks.

"I'm gonna get you for that." I cross my arms.

"Aw is wittle Joshie sad? Did I hurt his feelings?" She say in a baby voice.

"Yes." I reply fake pouting.

"Aww poor thing." She laughs.

"Let's go you big baby. " She stands up and throws her trash away.

"Where are we going?" I ask doing the same.

"I don't know, you tell me." She says.

"Oh I know." I smile.

"What?" She asks.

"It's a surprise." I say and we leave the mall.

*10 minutes later*

"Where are we Josh?" Lydia asks for the ten millionth time.

"Here." I say stopping.

"A park?" She asks.

"Not just a park, a park with ice cream." I smile pointing to the ice cream stand.

"You child." She laughs.

"Well, I guess you don't want ice cream." I smirk.

"No no I do. Let's go." She gets out of the car.

"That's what I thought." I say getting out as well.

I head to the ice cream cart walking with Lydia and wait in the line of like two people. I stare at her in the corner of my eye. Wow, Josh you stalker. Once the two people order we step up and get our ice cream. We sit on a bench close by and I speak up,

"So you know how you stole a fry from me?" I ask.

"Yeah." She nods and licks her ice cream.

"And you know how I said I would get you back?" I ask.

"Uh yeah." She looks at me weird.

Before she looks away I place my ice cream on her nose. Her jaw drops and her eyes widen.

"You suck." She wipes off her noes and rubs it on my arm.

I throw my head back in laughter. When I sat up I felt my nose go numb. I then realized that Lydia had her ice cream on my nose

"Well played." I laugh.

We just kinda sat there for a while, not talking just enjoy each other's company. Okay what the hell is this some romantic comedy? But it's true, we just say there for a while.

"We should get home. " Lydia says.

"But I'm having fun." I say.

"Me to, but my dad will get mad." She says.

"Alright, let's go." I say and we get in my car.

"Hey Josh." Lydia says.

"Yeah?" I look over at her.

"Thanks for today. I had fun." She smiles.

"I did to."
