Chi and I walked through a park on our way back home. We were almost to the other end of it when something caught her eye and caused her to stop walking. "Ghouls" She said looking at a couple sitting on a park bench making out.
"How do you know they are ghouls?" I ask, interested in her comment.
"They are trying to eat each other." She says turning and looking at me like it was a dumb question.
"Chi." I sighed, trying to think of the best way to explain this to her. "They aren't trying to eat each other. They are making out."
"Making out?" She asks in the form of a question. I roll my eyes realizing I would have to be more detailed.
"Kissing." I simplify.
"What's that?" She asks looking up at me.
"When someone loves another person, they kiss to express their love." I explain.
"Oh. Why?" She asks. Her question makes me jump a little. Now how will I explain this?
"Because." I simply answer.
"Because why?" She asks again, digging for a real answer. "Do you love someone Juuzou? Did you kiss before?" She fires off. Just then I see another couple walk by eating ice cream. When I see the cones in their hands I begin to look around, knowing I had just found my way out of this situation.
"Chi, do you want some ice cream?" I ask her, leading her in the direction of the cart.
"Ice cream?" She asks. Once again, I mentally smack myself for not remembering that she basically knows nothing about anything. She can barely talk.
"Come over here." I tell her as we approach the Ice cream cart.
"What can I get for you?" The man asks. Chi grabs my arm and stand close to me, skeptical of the man in front of us.
"Two Strawberry ice cream cones." I tell him as I hand the money over, glancing down at Chi.
"Here you are." The man says passing me two cones of Strawberry ice cream.
We walk over to a park bench and sit down. I hand her the ice cream cone I had bought for her and lick my own. She looks up at me with an expression that says 'What do I do with it?' "Eat it. It's food." I explain licking my ice cream again. She opens her mouth real wide and takes a big bite out of if. Her eyes open wide and she spits it back out, then look at me like I tried to poison her. "You're not supoosed to bite it." I tell her, kneeling down in front of her. "Just lick it or you'll hurt yout teeth." I pull out both napkins the man had given me and begin to wipe the ice cream from the front of her dress.
"Yummy." She smiles pressing her tongue to the ice cream, mimicking the way I had been eating it. I look up to smile at her from my squating position then I see melted ice cream driping down her hands and fingers. Both napkins sat dirty on the bench next to her. I take her ice cream from her and place it in her opposite hand, she pays me no attention when I do. Bringing her finger tips to my lips, I slide them into my mouth one by one, licking the ice cream from her skin. Once they are clean, I lick her palm. I don't realize that I'm enjoying licking the creamy liquid from her skin more than I did licking it from the cone until I hear her let out a giggle. "Juuzou, that made right here go boom boom." She says placing her hand against her chest. I blush and look away from her, trying to ignore the fact that I knew what that meant and she didn't.
"Chi." I say about to tell her that she shouldn't express things like that so freely, but then I feel her warm tongue against my cheek.
"Juuzou had ice cream on his face." She smiles. I feel my cheeks get hotter and look away for the second time.
