Sweet tooth

Chapter 1

Cat's Pov

"Would that be all?" I ask putting the Cookies and Creme ice cream to the teenager boy. "Yeah ok," he says while blushing profusely.  I already know what's coming up and I reply  "that'll be 3.50", he hands me a 5 dollar bill and asks (trying to be slick) "how much would it be for your number? " I was already prepared for this and reply "I'm sorry but I'm not interested." He looks defeated but his numbskull friend goes up and says "who needs you anyway? You're just a loser." I've gotten used to guys saying that or their friends saying that for a while now. I just go back to work and ignore them. "Only 5 more minutes till my shift is done," I think in my head.  I've always been a weird person but believed everyone is weird secretly and think weird thoughts as well. I just looked at the boys and thought immediately "Ice cream break!" I yell at Jake who makes the ice cream and is the manager "take it off my paycheck" and grab a cone.  Jake come out from the back and says "you are becoming more and more unhealthy you know that?" "I am well aware of that good sir" I reply while scooping Cookies and creme and some Bubble Gum and go over to the toppings sections. "I still think you should give free ice cream to the people who work here," I say while adding marshmallows. "And I still am going against that," He says while grabbing a cone as well. When I put a cherry on top I finished The Cat's Meow as Jake calls it. It's Cookies and Creme with Bubble Gum Ice cream topped with marshmallows and a cherry. It looks horrific but tastes actually good.  I sit with Jake and watch Netflix in the back. We fight on whether to watch Stanger things (Jake) or Riverdale (Me). "We watched Stranger Things last time!" I say in annoyance "but Riverdale is boring" he yells. I do a fake gasp and grab my bag "this is the last time I'm dealing with you Jake I have been in this for too long" I dramatically put my hand on my head and lean back on the chair. "No, wait, don't leave me Cat we need you, I need you," Jake says on his knees. "Y'all are like an unhappy couple" we turn to see who the voice came from. It was Ivy! The other girl who worked there. It's only the three of us working here. "Ivy, Jake said Riverdale was boring," I say in a whiny voice. Ivy finished college and will inherit the ice cream shop since her dad owns it. Ivy gasps "Jake you take that back!" She says pinching his earlobes while I hold his arms back. "Ow, ow, ow ok! I take it back" Jake yelled. "Thank you" Ivy replies "Now we will watch Riverdale" Jake grumbles but doesn't respond. I smile accomplished and proud as we watch Season one episode 6 and I already have theories on who is the killer.
