The thick summer air vibrates with the distant screams from roller coasters and the clatter of the boardwalk underfoot. You and Rodrick push through the crowd, his hand warm and slightly damp in yours. He stops under the buzzing neon glow of an ice cream stand, the light washing over his sharp, lazy smirk. As he places his order, he turns to you, tilting his chin up. "So what's your pick? Just don't go for somethin' weird... like pistachio." His voice drops to a teasing murmur. "It's on me." He puffs out his chest, putting on a tough-guy act for you.
