Who: Abigail Hobbs and Virgil Hawkins
What: Getting ice cream
When: When they agreed to meet.
Where: Starting on campus - ice cream shop.
Status: Ongoing
Warnings: None.

Abigail stood by the flagpoles, watching for Virgil to arrive. She wore an ivory tank top, pale pink skinny jeans and a tan scarf around her neck to hide her scar. She was trying to keep it simple and at the same time, be a little more feminine than her usual hunting inspired clothes. She wasn't sure if this was a date, or just hanging out. Either way, she thought it would be nice to spend time with someone close to her age. Before moving the oc, her life had been sheltered in many ways, and she felt like she was still learning how to be normal.

Abigail gave Virgil a wave and a friendly smile when she saw him. "Hey."

	"Are you sure?" Abigail kidded. "You wouldn't want s'more than you could handle." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Definitely not," Virgil agreed. "I scream when I see people wasting ice cream. As much as I'd like to say there is no such thing as too much ice cream." He'd given himself far too many ice cream related stomach aches when he was younger to really believe that anymore. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It would be a shame to waste it. Ice cream is the coolest." Abigail smiled. "Luckily a puffle cone is the perfect size." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Virgil snorted loudly at the coolest joke. Really, the entire joke exchange had made him smile and he was glad that he’d come out with Abigail. “I’m gonna trust you on that,” he said. “Don’t you be playin’ me,” he said. It was then that he caught sight of the ice cream shop through the window. “This our stop?” he asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Yup, that's ours." Abigail pulled the cord, then stood as the bus came to a stop. She walked out of the bus, glancing over her shoulder to make sure that Virgil was close behind. "I think you're really like it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	“They gotta be doing something very wrong if they make ice cream I don’t like,” Virgil said, following Abigail off the bus. He did trust her that it would be extra good ice cream though. Especially on a hot day like this. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Abigail chuckled. "Yeah, all ice cream is good ice cream." She tugged the door open, stepped inside and held the door open for him to follow. "You must be a good luck charm. The line's usually a lot longer." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"What can I say?" Virgil said, puffing out his chest in faux-arrogance. "The fates smile upon me." The line-up really was perfect though. It gave him enough time to scan the menu and choose an item before he was up at the 'til. "I think I'm gonna have to take your advice and get the s'more," he said. "What about you?"

	Abigail took the opportunity when he puffed out his chest to give him a playful, flirty grin. "I think the fates were smiling on you, when they were giving out looks too." "I'm gonna have the s'more too." Abigail answered. It was a nice reminder of fun camping trips with her mother, before she passed away and everything changed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Virgil could feel the heat rising to his cheeks nearly immediately. Virgil was definitely not good at the whole flirting thing. “Oh, well, uh…” he stammered. “Thanks? Thank you. You too?” Smooth V. Very smooth. Way to not come across as a total loser.

Once Abigail ordered her ice cream, Virgil pulled some wadded out dollar bills from his pocket, still a little flustered, and moved to the side.

Oops. Abigail bit her lip. She hadn't meant to embarrass him, especially not in a public space. He must have felt horrendously awkward around her now, if the stammer was anything to go by. And the way he made it sound like complimenting her was a question, ugh, he must have felt like he had to reciprocate.

Luckily the server behind the counter asked her how she'd like her ice cream before she had a chance to make things worse. "A puffle cone." She told him and added "Thank you." when he handed it to her. She then glanced at Virgil. "And thank you too."

“Same here,” Virgil said to the server. He took his own ice cream, and managed to compose himself again. “It ain’t no thang,” he said to Abigail, walking toward one of the tables. He took a breath, since he probably owed her an apology. “Sorry for getting weird back there,” he said. “I was just caught off guard is all. People don’t usually tell me how handsome I am. Even if it is true.” A smile to show he was joking.

	"It's okay." Abigail returned his smile, feeling an instant relief. Maybe she hadn't given out a completely creepy vibe after all and he wouldn't run away when he had the first chance. She chuckled and took a seat at the table. "They must be shy." (Reply to this) (Parent)
