The Triangle

-Y/N's POV-
George and I walked together to the ice cream shop. When we arrived, I saw Nick leaning over the front counter, talking to the blonde cashier. She was giggling.

My eyes narrowed at them.

GEORGE:
"Oh this idiots here too." He lightly smiled at Nick.

I nodded then we walked up to the front to meet him.

Y/N:
"Hey Nick." I raised my eyebrows.

Nick turned around with widened eyes, like a deer caught in headlights. His eyes darted between me and George.

NICK:
"H—hey guys."

GIRL:
"So I'll see you tomorrow, Nick?" She smiled.

NICK:
"Yep." He quickly nodded then tried leaving but I grabbed his wrist.

Y/N:
"Wanna hangout with us?"

Nick glanced down at my stomach with a sigh.

NICK:
"I got homework to do..." He mumbled then pushed open the glass door and left before I could say anything else.

I sighed then we walked up to the front counter to meet the blonde girl.

GIRL:
"Hi. What could I could for you today?" She smiled while hovering her hand over the screen.

Suddenly, the manager appeared behind her.

PHILZA:
"These kiddos are here a lot." He chuckled, "I can type in their usuals for you today until you get a hang of things."

GIRL:
"Cool, less work for me." She raised her eyebrows, making the manager roll his eyes with a smile as he typed in our orders.

PHILZA:
"Alright, $6.16." He met our eyes.

George and I took out our dollar bills from our bags, 3 dollars to pay for each of us along with the change.

Philza collected the money and put it in the cash register then looked at the girl.

PHILZA:
"You can get them their orders, pumpkin."

GIRL:
"Yay..." she sarcastically said with a smile then she moved over to the station with all the flavors.

PHILZA:
"So, how've you kiddos been?" He smiled at us.

Y/N:
"Good, we haven't seen you here in a while though."

PHILZA:
"Yeah." He chuckled, "I've been at home with Kristin, taking care of the new member of the family, a little boy."

GIRL:
"Unfortunately..." we heard her faintly said.

Y/N:
"Awe, I'm happy for you." I giggled.

PHILZA:
"Thanks kiddo."

GIRL:
"Alright, your orders." She gave me George's order and gave George mine, making us lightly smile then switch our cups when she walked away.

Philza laughed in response.

PHILZA:
"You guys have a good one."

GEORGE:
"Thanks." He waved.

Once George and I said goodbye, we sat down at the closest table near the door.

Y/N:
"So...was I the only one thinking Nick was acting weird?" I ate a spoonful of my ice cream.

GEORGE:
"Yeah he um...kinda had a bad reaction to the whole...lie."

Y/N:
"He told you that?" My eyebrows squished together.
