Chapter 4: Asked Out
Snow Pea started having feelings for Winter Melon the next day. Winter Melon also had feelings for her.
She went out looking for Winter Melon. After a few minutes of questioning and searching, Winter Melon was just writing a book underneath a tree. She approached the boy-plant, panting.
"The hell Winter? I've been looking for you everywhere, friend. I thought one of those zombies got you."
"Nope! Just writing another book underneath an apple tree. I told Dr. Andy that I'm going to the park to relax, plus the zombies are nowhere to be seen." he replied.
Snow Pea scratched her bulb in confusion. She moved closer to the melon plant and slowly spoke. "Hey, do you mind if I..."
"What is it? Just continue..." Winter Melon flipped the book.
"Can I ask you out on a...date? You're a good guy, and I like to be with you more." Snow Pea timidly asked.
Winter Melon chuckled, then said, "You know, I should be the one asking that. Yes, you can." He smiled at Snow Pea and he was blushing.
Snow Pea was almost going to shake in excitement. She had a big smile on her face and the two conversed under the apple tree for a period of 3 minutes.
Snow Pea finally had something to brag to her friends at Plantypolis. She has her first date with a boy-plant. Her friends were repeatedly convincing her to find a boyfriend if she ever goes to defend the humans from the zombies. She became excited and her temperature was dropping to -15 degree Celsius- colder than the other ice plants have as normal temperature.
When the two returned to the house at sunset Crazy Dave called Winter Melon to be the cook for dinner. Snow Pea went to their room and there she released her excitement, jumping on the bed and hugging the pillows on her bed.
After the dinner Snow Pea and Winter Melon arranged their itinerary for tomorrow, and Winter Melon was blushing wildly while he was sleeping.
