Now Legato was very bored, worse off, he had no ice cream...or
cheesecake...damn it... There was nothing for him in this ghost town he
stumbled into, quite by accident, mind you. Anywhere there wasn't any junk
food, Legato hated to be. He was strolling through the dusty street, half
delisional with his sugar level at zero, he heard a faint noise coming from
his left.
He didn't care who or what it was, he needed to find out how to get somplace where there was sweet, sugary goodness! He tossed rocks randomly, they broke various windows on the opposite side of the street, but it didn't even faze him, what in the hell was under all these rocks anyway? He heard another sound, this time from behind them, he stood upright and turned quickly. A girl, taller than most, stood there, three feet away. Still, she wasn't taller than he was...did she have...strawberry shurbert...a pint of it!!!??? He reached for it but she drew it back.
"Hey!!!" she said astonished by his lack of manners. "Get your own!"
Legato's eyebrow twitched. Never before had he ever resorted to begging. "Come on, please! Just a taste!"
Just then, another girl crawled from beneath a building across the street.
"Britany, I did what you told me and it didn't work!" she moped, holding a pint of ice cream. "The lid is frozen on!"
Legato looked past Brittany and at the other girl. "I can open it for you."
Brittany frowned, "Yeah, right. You leave her alone."
Legato moped. "At least tell what flavor it is!"
"German chocolate...waaaaaaaant some?" she taunted, waving it around in the air.
"Very much..." he said floating on his feet as he moved forward. Brittany stuck her arm out, stopping him.
"Leave her alone, that's the only ice cream she's had in a month."
The only thing keeping Legato from killing her was a profound interest in the two. "....so..." he muttered under his breath.
"C'mon, Brit, let him have some, he's so cute, look how he's begging!!!"
"This is so humiliating."
"Okay," Brittany nodded, "I'll give you a bite."
Legato smiled reaching forward for the ice cream like a two year old smiles for a new toy.
"But first..." she said snatching it back, causing Legato to fall on his face. He got up tiredly. "You gotta kiss me!" Legato frowned.
"Oh, alright."
