“It’s really beautiful here,” I commented as he drove, “the palm trees, the water, the bridges.”
“It is,” he agreed. “We’ll have to go to the beach while we’re here.”
“And find a parking lot so you can teach me how to drive.”
“That too.” He laughed.
He came to a stop sign and turned to me, raising his brows to indicate I needed to tell him which way to go. “Straight ahead, Captain.”
He did as I asked.
“Right,” I said when we came to the next street.
We
were driving further into the town and all the cute little shops amazed me.
“Left,” I told him. “Stop,” I added, when I saw an empty parking space. I pointed and he pulled over to park the car.
I rifled through my backpack for my coin purse and once I had it in hand I stuck enough money in the machine to cover us for a few hours.
Dean spread his arms out, encompassing the town. “And now we explore.”
We strolled down the street and I gasped when I spotted a cupcake shop.
“Ooh, ooh!” I grabbed his arm. “We have to go in there!”
“Of course we do.” Dean shook his head. “It’s not like you could’ve possibly had enough sugar for the day already.”
“You know you want a cupcake too.” I dragged him inside the building.
The walls were painted a bright pink with cream stripes and there were pictures of cupcakes decorating them.
Three little tables sat by the window so you could sit down and enjoy your cupcake.
A bell had chimed above the door when we entered and the woman working there came bustling up to the counter from the back. She was adorably rumpled with flour on her apron and in her hair.
“Hi,” she smiled pleasantly, smoothing her hair down. “How can I help you?”
I scanned the clear case the cupcakes were displayed behind and my mouth watered.
So. Many. Choices.
“I’ll have the chocolate one.”
Dean pointed out the one he wanted and she grabbed it.
“And for you?” She asked me.
I tugged on my bottom lip with my teeth. They all looked so yummy.
“I’ll have a Red Velvet.”
She grabbed my cupcake and gave us the total.
I was going to pay, but Dean beat me to it.
I leveled him with a glare and he chuckled as he handed me the cupcake.
