Chilly Boulder, Thursday Evening

Hurley led Penelope into the place and asked about getting a custom ice cream cake, just like they'd discussed.

"It's gonna take a bit," Hurley said. "Want to... sit and wait here?"

[ooc: expecting one, but open for your other Chilly Boulder needs]

"Yes," she said, excited about the cake they were going to share. "You told them to put our names on it?"

Penelope bounced before she sat down to wait for their cake. "I didn't think waking up today that it might end so well."

"I have the best of friends," she replied, her cheeks blushing softly as she looked at him.

Her eyes widened. "Oh. My."

"Wow. I'm sorry. Um. You asked me about the birds and the bees."

"It's all right, Hurley. I understand. We don't ever have to speak of it again if you don't like."

She giggled. "Thank you, Hurley. I like yours too. Have you ever considered cutting it?"

"Mhm," she said. "I was just curious."

"Oh, I wasn't suggesting. I want you to do whatever you want to do with your hair." A beat. "Your curls are nice."

"I suspected," she commented, wanting to reach out and touch it.

And that thought just had her blushing.

"No, you didn't," she assured him quickly. "Just... I was thinking something."

"It wouldn't hurt," she teased. "But this will be free, I suppose. I was thinking I'd like to touch your hair."

Penelope tentatively reached over to touch a strand of hair, actually enough to watch it wrap around her finger. "It's soft."

"I would hope that you would wash it and stuff," she replied, grinning and dropping her hand from his hair.

She laughed. "I'm glad we came here."

"Oh no, it's huge!" she giggled. "Will it melt before we can get it back to the dorms?"

[identity profile] bad-nose-job.livejournal.com 2009-02-13 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
She shook her head. "I can't wait. I have to try it now!"

[identity profile] bad-nose-job.livejournal.com 2009-02-13 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
"I just realized I need to help pay for this cake," she told him once he came back."

"Thank you," she said, taking the cake and fork. "You're awesome, Hurley."
