"Ah," I nod, crossing my arms. "So... is there anything in particular I should do?" I ask, still finding the whole idea awkwardly amusing.

"It's up to you. Girls grow in and out of crushes..." I say with an assuring nod. "Just don't lead her on accidently though." I say knowing he probably wouldn't but stating it so that I was sure he understood.

"Don't lead her on accidentally?" I ask, raising my eyebrows. "And how am I supposed to do that, when I haven't the slightest clue why she'd even have the crush in the first place?"

"I don't know!" I say shaking my head.

I shake my head back, looking at the floor. "That's terrific...." I mutter, very much not liking the idea of accidentally hurting some little kid.

I give an awkward smile. "I'm sorry about all this. A few weeks ago she had a little crush on Ian."

"Well... if it blows over quickly, that's a relief," I say, shrugging and actually feeling a little relieved. "You have a very odd kid there, Shelby."

"But she's my odd kid." I say with a smile.

"True," I agree, nodding. "I don't suppose there's any cause and effect involved?" I ask, raising my eyebrows.

"No I don't think so." I say to him. "She goes through phases."

I laugh slightly. "I meant is there any cause and effect between the fact that she's your kid and the fact that she's odd... but never mind. That was probably cruel again."

"Hey..." I say frowing slightly. "Although if you're implying I'm odd, then yes that does make sense."

"Thought it might," I nod, grinning slightly and glad that she didn't take offense.

"That's not nice..." I say shoving him slightly, but in a kidding way.

"Didn't say it was." I laugh slightly, stumbling and considering shoving her back... but instead I just nudge her with my elbow. "It isn't very nice to shove people either, you know."

"Well I like to shove people it's fun." I say with a smile.

"Oh, now there's a good excuse for cruelty," I laugh, rolling my eyes a little.

"Exactly." I say to him with a laugh.

"Wonderful role model you're being," I say dryly, still amused.

I frown slightly and walk back to the table.

I stay where I am a moment, then shrug and follow her back to the table.

"So, ummm.... had enough ice cream, or in Fitzy's situation enough dairy soup?" I laugh a little.

Post by Fitzy Patricks on Jan 12, 2008 20:14:52 GMT
I laugh again, looking at the remains of my ice cream. "Definitely."

I smile. "Well I think it's time for us to leave since Hope and Holly are falling asleep." I say pointing at them with a faint laugh.

"Sounds like a pretty good idea," I nod. "It was nice meeting you all."

"We'll see you soon." I say with a smile as all of them file out of the booth.

"Hope so," I nod, mildly surprised at my own sincerity.
((Yeah... we should. I like talking to you. And you should start it 'cause I'm lazy. ;D ))

I smile even wider as I watch all of them exit out the door, following close behind.
[[haha. I feel special. ;D I have an idea I'll make it. lol]]

I wave one last time before sitting back down in the booth, pushing away chocolate dairy soup with a grimace and returning to the book that I was trying to read... finding, still with some surprise, that I'm not annoyed by the long interruption.
((Haha... you should. ;D And gotcha... let me know where 'tis. And thanks.))
