KINDRED SPIRITS

"You're finally here, Ace!". Landon broke the awkward silence.

He paused when his eyes moved from his best friend to the blonde beauty beside him. If it wasn't for her scrubs, he would have thought she was straight out of a movie.

"I am," he said dryly, observing his friend, as he observed the woman beside him.

He knew that look in his eyes. Had seen it countless times. He could wager that when they're alone, he would bring up the fact he had fallen in love.

"I bought the ice cream—"

"You said you were going to buy?" Ace interrupted before he could finish speaking.

He blinked, his face contorting into confusion. "But—"

"When you said you wanted ice cream, I thought you meant just for yourself. I didn't know you were going to go crazy." His eyes trailed on the various bowls on the bed.
