XOXO Lollypops and Opals XOXO
"Ack!" Penny cried out in alarm. She had been sitting on the sofa in Motormouth Maybelle's record store, sucking dreamily on her lollypop, when Seaweed invaded her personal space by jumping on her.
"Did I scare you?" He grinned. She shook her head, smacking herself in the face with her own pigtails as the boy removed himself from her lap and sat next to her. He put his arm around her shoulders and kissed her cheek, as her mouth was full of lollypop. She gazed at him in moony idiocy as he smiled that million dollar smile.
"I got something for you," his eyes twinkled as he reached into his pocket. "My mama said I could give you this; it was my grandmother's." Penny ooh'd and almost ah'd at the opal and silver ring that Seaweed slid onto her finger.
"It…it's beautiful!" She said after removing the lollypop from her mouth. She held out her hand and tilted her head as the opal shone brightly. She turned to him, planting a cherry flavored kiss on his lips before popping the lollypop back into her mouth. She leaned against him, placing her newly adorned hand on his chest.
"Mama said to give it to the one I'm going to marry…" Penny lifted her face to his, smiling past the stick of her lollypop. "But you can't have a lollypop in your mouth at the wedding" he chuckled. She nodded whimsically, and he kissed her nose.
