Perry's Ice cream parlor is one of the most visited places in the neighborhood . Sara picked out the location, and soon, they were able to reach the place .
"Wow, this is looking good, Sara . "
"Yeah, yeah . I've heard about this place . It's surprisingly good . "
"I know, the place might be small and compact but, the desserts they serve are delicious . "
"Exactly . "
Comments came one after the other after they all spotted the Ice cream parlor . After admiring the place for a while, all stepped inside .
Bridgette grabbed Mike by his collar to have a private conversation . Mike startled from the sudden movement as it strangled him nearly to death .
"Can you please handle me more gently?" Mike choked .
Bridgette reddened from the comment . However, she snubbed saying,
"I don't care if you're going to use magic or something else . You better order the same menu as Giselle . "
Bridgette said in a provoking tone .
It took a minute for Mike to understand the underlying meaning behind it . Ordering the same food might grab Giselle's attention potentially leading to her focus on Mike .
Mike liked the idea of it, and in fact, he felt bad for not coming up with this idea on his own .
Mike agreed to . With that, the two of them stepped in to join the rest .
. . .
There wasn't a large table available, and so, the guys decided to scooch in the smaller ones to form a single large table .
After getting settled into their seats, they looked into the menu card to order .
One by one, the students placed the orders . When it is Giselle's turn, she ordered a blueberry ice cream sundae and moved on to the next person .
And, when it came to Mike, he just said,
"I'll have what Giselle has, blueberry ice cream sundae . "
As soon as Mike said it, the others started cheering Mike for his bold move .
Giselle felt awkward as she gave out a half-smile .
Giselle felt the need to use the restroom and so, she excused herself .
However, the minute she left the place, the guys started shouting and congratulating Mike .
"Smooth dude," Ivy said .
"I said, do it in a way that she won't know it beforehand," Bridgette complained, and Mike shrugged .
Soon after placing their orders, the servers brought out the delicious Ice cream dishes . Just looking at them made the guys drool a bit . Eating Ice cream after school does can make anyone feel better .
Giselle joined in at the right time . The server placed both of the blueberry Ice cream sundaes next to each other . Giselle who had returned noticed it .
Not one seat is left empty except the one Mike saved for her, and Giselle felt helpless . She went to sit next to Mike . Mike kept his goofy smile .
"I saved you a seat," Mike said in his most charming way .
"Yeah, I can see it . "
Giselle's sharp reply cut off Mike from his growing enthusiasm . He coughed to hide the embarrassment while Giselle began eating .
Everyone started digging into their desserts . It was surely worth coming here . Giselle ate in silence avoiding every possible conversation she got referred to, dragged in, or indirectly invited . Ivy opened her wily mouth to comment about the same 'food-order' situation . Giselle didn't pay any attention to it and graciously enjoyed her sundae without being swayed by the conversation going on .
Roughly, a few seconds later, Giselle felt a hand approaching her sight . Her eyes traced the limb to find its owner, and it is Mike . Giselle's eyes widened as she froze on her spot letting Mike reach her face . He gently wiped out the ice cream around the corner of her lips . His hands brushed her lips after wiping off; his sharp fingers repeated the action until Giselle snapped back to reality, and pushed his hands away .
Giselle felt unease take over . Her body became restless from the inescapable situation .
Mike ignored her displeased look and continued to haunt her with his little actions trying to grab her notice . This time, he even took a bite out of her dessert, licking the ice cream with his tongue and making sure to repeat it for a few times . Giselle felt disgusted from his behavior and, feeling dirty and invaded without her consent .
Mike kept repeating such actions until the rest struck their eyes upon the two . Bridgette, who kept gazing at Mike and his little irritating behaviors found entertaining as she saw Giselle struggling to escape it .
She then hissed at Ivy to notice the small play going on between these two and waited for an opening to trap Giselle .
