... Of course, he realizes his dilemma when he holds the two cones in both hands and stares down at his journal. Gdit. No available hands. For a moment he hops up and down and tries to open the pocket by sliding his leg against the chair, but to no avail.
Once Regal asked if he needed help, he sheepishly accepted, and soon enough, Xion might find a beaming Luke calling to her.]
Xion! Xion, hey, are you there?

... only to see the love of her life making a complete and total dork out of himself.
Unable to help a grin of her own, Xion sets down her things to pick up the journal instead, unable to keep the amusement and affection out of her expression. ]
I'm here, I'm here! What's up?

[It's supposed to be secret, but, well. He does kind of have the ice cream in his hands.]

Gee, I wonder what it is. I'll be right there, don't let it all melt! [ Beaming now, she gets out of her seat and dashes out the door without looking back. ]

Well, whatever. He's got a date to catch! Once his journal's put away, Luke gives Regal a quick thanks before he dashes out of the bakery. He didn't want Xion to show up at the apartment to find him not there, or worse, to have Asch answer the door. That'd be awkward.
Thankfully, Luke managed to get there first, and all without spilling the ice cream. That takes talent, man. He's only barely winded, considering how much he runs around the village daily, and he'll go to the freezer to stick his hands, still holding the treats, in there to keep them cold. Now hurry up Xion, before he gets frostbite from his stupid.]

She makes good time. She's fit herself, tyvm, so the run doesn't bother her too much. Not long after he gets there, Luke will hear a knock on his door. ]
Luke? I hope I didn't beat you here! Then I'd have to tease you about it.

Of course! I ran all the way here. Just in case. [ Her smile turns a little mischievous, and she reaches out to take one of his hands--
--and immediately squeaks in surprise and drops it. ] Luke, your fingers are freezing!

Luke shuts the door with his foot as he blows hot air on his hands and rubs them together in an effort to warm them up, and he jerks his head to gesture to the kitchen.]
They're in there. We can go to my room; I don't think Asch wants any anyway.
Reply
Okay, that sounds good to me. ... I get the impression that Asch doesn't like fun anyway. [ Is she joking? ... hard to tell. ]

He really doesn't. Maybe I should make him try some sometime... [But anyway. Once he reaches the kitchen, he takes up both ice cream cones, hands one to her, then leads the way once more back to his room.] That's strawberry. Have you ever had it before?
Reply
I'm not sure ... all we ever really have in the house is sea salt. [ She gives it a lick ... and her face just lights up. ] Whoa, it's good! It's ... it's really sweet! [ Yes Xion, it would be sweet if you're used to salt in your ice cream. ]
Reply
[Her reaction, however, makes him grin, and he takes a lick of his own ice cream before he reaches out to open the door to his room.] Yeah! It's my favorite. I usually take it with sprinkles, but I thought it'd be easier to try without it.
