"Okay" Aaliyah replied warily. She got up and gently slipped her hand into Evelyn's

Evelyn grinned at her and pulled her along, out of the park, and down the sidewalk. They walked down back streets of the city with only the streetlights to light their way. "This really won't be as bad as you think it will be," Evelyn said to Aaliyah.

"Well, what are we doing?" she asked, following along wearily

Evelyn stopped suddenly. "Ta-da!" She gestured her arms grandly. They were standing in front of a small, locally owned ice cream shop. The sign was in cursive letters. You could see a few people inside the glass windows, and it looked warm in there. "Not only do they have great ice cream, but they also have delicious hot cocoa, since it's getting a bit chilly," Evelyn said, opening the door for Aaliyah. "Is this alright?"

"Most indefinetly" she smiled, the lights reflecting off of her eyes. They walked in and the warm inside air wrapped around her body. Her eyes closed with joy of the sudden warmth

"Brilliant," Evelyn breathed, watching Aaliyah. She smiled at her enjoying the warmth and got in line. "So what are we feeling? Is it an ice cream night? A warm drink night? Maybe a bit of both?"

"Both. I can pay" she replied, her eyes scanning the many flavours as they walked up to the line to the counter

"Mm no. Sorry love, but I'm paying," Evelyn retorted. "Now am I in the mood for mint chip tonight?" she wondered out loud, watching the menu.

"I think I'm gonna get strawberry" she replied, still unsure about letting Evelyn pay. She looked around the small, antique yet modern shoppe, taking in the woody smell

"That's always a good choice," she said. "Now the real question is, do they have decent tea here?"

"Oh my goodness I hope so. I love fruity teas" she replied, happy that she now hopefully had someone to share her love with tea with. She smiled and looked at Evelyn, watching as her eyes scanned the icecream bar

Evelyn looked over the ice cream and decided on mint chip. She noticed Aaliyah watching her, looked over at her, and winked. "I do enjoy a classic early grey but it's much too late for that, unfortunately," Evelyn said.

"Hm," she smiled "Unfortunatly. But fortunatly it isn't too late for hot cocoa" she replied, placing her hand on Evelyn's waist

"It's definitely not," Evelyn said with a smiled, putting her arm around Aaliyah's shoulders. They made it to the counter. "Can I have one small mint chip and two hot cocoas?" Evelyn looked at Aaliyah for confirmation.

"And a straberry icecream" she added, her eyes catching Evelyn's

"Yup," Evelyn smiled at the person.
"Alright, you can pay over there," they said.
Evelyn took her arm off of Aaliyah's shoulders and quickly walked over to the cash register. The cashier gave her the total and Evelyn quickly paid her, not wanting to take the chance of Aaliyah paying.

"You are really insisting on paying!" she exclaimed rushing over behind her and gently placing her hands around her waist

"Yup," Evelyn said. "I asked you here, I'm paying. That's how it works love."

"Mmm" she mumbled. They waited for their icecream and kissed her cheek

Evelyn stared straight ahead and smiled, afraid she would full on kiss Aaliyah if she looked in her face. Their ice cream and hot cocoa were ready and Evelyn grabbed Aaliyah's ice cream and hot cocoa and handed it to her, then grabbed her own. She started towards the door.

She followed after her, grabbing her icecream and such and walking out behind her grabbing her waist and kissing her neck

Evelyn turned out of Aaliyah's grasp and looked at her for a moment. She smiled a small smile, whispered "Come on," and started down the sidewalk at a fast pace.

Aaliyah slipped her hand into hers, trying desperatly to keep up with her quick pace, "Where are we going?" she asked

Evelyn looked to her left and found an alley. She pulled Aaliyah into it and backed up to the wall, so Aaliyah was facing her. "Can I kiss you?" she asked, her face pink and her eyes glowing.

"Please do" she muttred, cupping Evelyn's cheeks with her hand
