Ice Cream

Ah. I dedicate this to Chocolate Confection, who inspired me. (I just lost the game.) This is once again, Solitaire, which is Niou x Shishido. No, I don't own TeniPuri.

'When you said we were going out to eat, I had imagined that we would be eating an actual substantial meal.'

Shishido responded, 'I just said we were going out to eat! I never meant going out to eat a meal.' He picked up his spoon. 'Isn't this yummier anyway, Niou?'

'Is that your favourite flavour?' Niou questioned, watching as Shishido cheerfully ate a spoonful of his ice cream.

'Yup. Cookies and Cream.'

Niou smirked. 'Figures.'

Shishido frowned, not liking the condescending smirk that Niou so often used when talking to him. 'What do you mean, "Figures"?'

'Oh, I don't know,' Niou said loftily. 'I just think that Cookies and Cream is a flavour that only somebody as juvenile and immature as you would be able to actually appreciate.'

'Juvenile?' Shishido repeated. And then said angrily, 'I'm not childish!'

Niou's smirk widened. 'So you say as you throw a temper tantrum in a public area.'

Shishido's frown deepened, but instead of retorting, he viciously stabbed his ice cream. He looked over at Niou's bowl of ice cream, to see light brown ice cream with dark swirls.

'And this swirly chocolate ice cream is mature?' Shishido asked incredulously.

Niou sent him a pitying look that would have seemed more real if Shishido hadn't seen it so many times before. 'Shishido, it's not "swirly chocolate ice cream". It's Häagen
Dazs Cinnamon Dulce de Leche ice cream.'

Shishido stared. 'What?'

'Häagen Dazs Cinnamon Dulce de Leche.' Niou said, the painstakingly annoying smirk once again plastered on his face. 'Is it too complicated for you to understand?'

Shishido put down the spoon that he had been holding. 'What is it though?'

'It's from Latin America.' Niou rolled his eyes. 'What do they teach you in your rich school?'

Shishido almost pouted. But then realised that if he pouted in present company, he'd get ridiculed about it for the rest of his life.

'So what's your favourite ice cream flavour?'

'Baileys Irish Cream,' Niou responded immediately.

Shishido sighed. 'Figures that you would like some strange foreign ice cream.'

'Want to try some?' Niou held out his bowl, offering the mixture of their two ice cream flavours.

Shishido nodded. And then paused. 'Wait. Is this some sort of trick?'

'Obviously,' Niou said. And quickly gulped down the rest of the ice cream.

Shishido would never get one up on Niou.

Or so Shishido thought.

'You okay?' Shishido asked, looking at Niou's strange expression.

'...Brain freeze,' Niou muttered.

And Shishido burst out laughing.

And promptly stopped as Niou flipped the bowl over and placed it on Shishido's head.

Shishido could feel the melted ice cream dripping down his hair.

'You know, Shishido, I think it looks good on you. And once again, have fun with the bill!' Niou stood up, and left gracefully, leaving Shishido sitting at the table by himself with a bowl on his head.

'Um, here's the check.' The waitress placed the bill on the table.

Shishido looked at the bill.

'Why does Häagen Dazs costs so fucking much?'

No, Shishido could never ever get one up on Niou. x owari
