He chuckled and we started walking again. I wrapped my arms around myself as the cold breeze hit me. Ethan, being the gentleman that he is, removed his leather jacket and placed it on my shoulders. I smiled and pulled it closer, thanking him. His familiar and unique cologne washed over me. I halted and placed my hand on his shoulder, making him stop too and bent down to remove the heels which were killing me. Removing both of them, I relaxed.
Ethan raised an eyebrow. “You’re going to walk barefoot?”
“Yes,” I replied, nodding.
He chuckled.
“Ethan, I want ice cream,” I demanded. “Now!”
He stared at me in confusion. “Where am I supposed to find ice cream for you this late?!”
I stared at him sheepishly. “I don’t know but I want ice cream."
He sighed. “Ash, we should go home. I’m sure there’s some ice cream at home.”
I shook my head. “No! I want ice cream now!”
“But where-”
“McDonalds!” I exclaimed.
“And for your ice cream you want to walk all the way to McDonalds?” he asked, staring at me as if I was crazy.
I nodded enthusiastically and unlocked my phone to search for the nearest McDonalds outlet. After finding one, we walked while talking and laughing. It was dark and I would have been scared if I was out here alone but with Ethan around, I felt safe.
After walking for about fifteen minutes, I finally saw the big, bright yellow colored M. I rushed inside and Ethan followed me in. There were a few people in there- some were drinking coffee while some were enjoying their burgers. I ordered a cup of McFlurry with M&Ms and Ethan ordered a plain vanilla cone.
After we got our ice creams, we walked out. I dug into my ice cream and took a big bite.
“Thank you,” I said with a mouth full of cold ice cream, melting. Not the most attractive thing to do, I know.
Ethan chuckled.
“Oh! Look!” I said as I gulped. “A fountain!”
I pulled Ethan with me while trying to hold my heels and the ice cream cup in one hand. We sat down on the cold stone as the water sprung out of a little cupid.
“This is the best date I’ve ever had, Ethan,” I told him genuinely after a moment's silence.
He smiled. “My pleasure.”
Ethan lifted his cone to take a bite. Smiling mischievously, I placed my hand under the cone and pushed it towards him. The ice cream smashed across his face while I laughed loudly. He glared at me but I knew he wasn’t serious because of the small smile playing on his lips. I continued laughing. His nose was covered with ice cream and he looked super adorable.
After I was done laughing, I wet my hands in the water which was resting in the fountain and wiped the ice cream off his face. While I was cleaning his gorgeous face, he shoved the ice cream cone right in my face. I shrieked and dropped my ice cream in the fountain. It was Ethan’s turn to laugh this time. I felt myself laugh along with him and splashed some water to my face.
I gasped. “Ethan! Look! There are lucky pennies in here.”
He leaned forward, next to me and looked down. I put my hand inside and grabbed a few pennies. The bronze colored, circular objects shined on my palms. I admired them for a while and threw them back in except two.
I handed one to Ethan. “One for you and one for me.”
He turned to face me and our faces were just inches apart. Without hesitating, he leaned forward and gently, his lips pressed to mine. I felt shivers run down my body. Little butterflies danced in my stomach. I ran my hand through his soft, messy hair as he held me by my back. I felt the familiar feeling of me riding a rollercoaster wash over me. Our lips moved in sync and I could taste vanilla ice cream on his lips.
“You taste like vanilla ice cream,” he whispered, pulling away.
“I wonder why,” I said sarcastically and smiled.
He chuckled and kissed me again.
“Does this mean I’m your girlfriend?” I whispered on his lips.
His lips curved into a smile beneath mine. “If that’s what you want it to be.”
