It was a beautiful night as Wolffe pushed Lyni's wheelchair along the sidewalk and she looked up at the stars. Lyni had texted her brothers to let them know and talked to Wolffe about how he had gotten to enjoy Togrutian food. The restaurant had been an excellent choice with meat being prominent and well prepared. Wolffe told her about his best friend in his unit, a Togruta who saved his life multiple times and introduced him to that kind of food.

The fun walk continued down to an ice cream shop, where they got a sundae to share. (Lyni had never been allowed to have one so Wolffe decided to fix that.) Chocolate ice cream piled with whipped cream was topped with nuts, hot fudge, and two cherries. A waitress tried to flirt with Wolffe but he didn't respond to her at all, instead focusing on Lyni.

Talking together at a corner table about different species of birds, and Lyni added tidbits on how they helped the natives of their lands. Then a lanky early teen Torgruta in jeans and blue t shirt called, "Wolffe!" Before jogging up to them.

He had stood up to put their dishes away and looked her in the eye, "Tano."

"What are you doing out so late?" Looking around, "Where's your brothers, I know you can't go out without one…." Realizing Lyni was right next to him she stopped.

Lyni disguised the fire about to destroy her with a smile, "Surely were old enough to go on a date alone." Taking Wolffe's hand she beamed up at him, "I am the luckiest girl in the world."

Tano's face went bright red and she stuttered, "O-of c-course." Then looking at Wolffe, "S-sorry," before she fled.

Looking up at Wolffe Lyni sighed, "Teenagers," with a shrug, "what can you do?"

He chuckled and all was right again. Standing behind her with his hands on the wheelchair handles, "Reminded me of Tano's reaction when the twins decided to run up and down the street naked." Lyni laughed and he filled her in on the bet that had started the competition.

Laughter

I feel free to laugh with you,

Whenever it is just us two.

Protective looks and

Judging stares

Melt away when it is

Just us two.
