The Promised Ice Cream Date {kAt}

I was walking up to the hill wearing a green off the shoulder t-shirt. I carried a sweat shirt just in case because I apsolutly hated the cold. I had grey flats on and jeans. I was comfortable enough. This would be my second date with Eli. We had promised each other that when we lived through the battle we would go out for ice cream. But that didn't happen. Eli had to go and get himself injured. He was in the infirmary for a while, I had stayed with him. Now, I saw him on the hill leaning against the tree. I sniled to him and jogged the rest of the way to meet him. "Hey." I say with a smile.

I turned around and saw Sam. I smiled at her. "Hey," I said back. Wow, she looked nice. Well, all girls look good. Sam just looked better than the rest of them. I winked at her and slipped my hand into hers. "Ready for our long awaited ice cream?" I asked her, a grin on my face.

I smiled at Sam. "Well, I'm sorry for getting smashed into a tree. I wasn't really planning to break an arm and a leg," I told her. I gave her a goofy grin. "Well, it took your shoulder long enogh to heal," I tased back. A smirk rested on my lips. Together we walked down the hill.

I laughed. "Well get used to it Flower Girl, 'cause it's gonna be happening often," I told her. I winked at her. I closed my eyes once more and will the air to help us travel to the city. Thank gods for the mist, you knows what the mortals would see. I breathed heavily. Carrying both of us was hard work. I set us down in an alley. It was mid-day and people were still on the streets. I smiled and took Sam's hand. "Ready for ice cream?"

I shook my head.. "Yeah, I'm fine. I just haven't had enough energy to do things after my injry," i told Sam. I lead her out of the alley way and into the bright sun. Ah, the sun's warmth felt great. I smiled at Sam, excitment in my eyes. "Let's go get ice cream."

It wa just one of those really simple trips. GoIng out for ice cream with your boyfriend, nothing out of the ordinary...unless your a demigod. That light nervous feeling was pushed back into the back of my mind as usual like whenever I leave camp, but Istill had that moment of worry. I shook it away and smiled back at Eli. He was the expert of the city. "Lead the way, SuperBoy."

I rolled my eyes. "Don't you mean Superman?" I asked her, eyebrow raised. I smiled and led us down a few blocks. New Yorkers were coming up and down the streets, minsing their own bee's wax. Just how it should be. I grinned at the thought. I stopped when we came to a place that said 'Carvel.' Oh yeah, always go to the classicls. Carvel was my favorite place even though it was a franchised ice cream shop.

I closed my eyes and smelled the sweet vanilla that came from the shop. Every ice cream flavor imaginable popped into my mind. I wanted to have them all. "Oh gods, it's been forever sense I've had real ice cream." I mused. I smiled. "Let's go." I announced hurridly pulling him to the counter.
