Strawberry Ice Cream

Chapter 1: Strawberry Ice Cream

A/N

Okay so I decided to go ahead with this idea. I like the couple too much and I've run out of Cabbie fics to read. So I hope you like it. Enjoy =]

….

"Hey Cat, why did you want to hang out again?" Robbie Shapiro asked his best friend and crush Cat Valentine as they were walking down the sidewalk toward town after school.

"I found this new ice cream shop, and I thought you could go with me. Everybody else said that they had other stuff to do, and I wanted you to come with me anyway." She said frowning as if she had done something wrong.

"Haha, I don't mind I was just wondering." Robbie laughed.

"Well then hurry up, I want to try some red velvet ice cream!" She said as she started pulling Robbie down the sidewalk faster.

"All for red velvet, I should have known." Robbie thought, laughing to himself.

"Hey! What's that supposed to mean?" Cat turned to him and asked.

"What?" Robbie asked?

"You just laughed for no reason."

"Oh, sorry Cat, I just thought it was funny how much you love strawberry." He said.

"I can still taste it when I think of the stage kiss."

"Why is that funny, I love strawberries!" She started jumping up and down at the thought. She then stopped moving and looked up at the sky and started staring at the clouds. After a few moments of silence, she exclaimed, "That one looks like a unicorn!"

"Weren't we going to get ice cream?" Robbie asked.

"Oh yeah! Hurry up Robbie!" Cat said running ahead of him. Robbie just laughed, while running to catch up. After about five minutes Cat tired out and continued walking.

"Hey, Robbie?" Cat asked after a minute of silence.

"Yeah."

"Do you hate me for not going to Prome with you?"

"What? O-of course not! I could never hate you Cat!" Robbie spluttered. "I just wish I had gotten to you first." "How could you think that?"

"I don't know, you were really upset that you thought I was fibbing." Cat said sadly.

"Cat, don't be sad. You know it's happened to me before. I was upset because I thought that you just said you had a date so you wouldn't have to go with me."

"But you know I wouldn't do that. Besides I said I would have gone with you, I just couldn't because I was going with Tug." Cat sighed. Robbie, meanwhile, just scratched the back of his head.

"I know, I shouldn't have doubted you, I mean—"

"OH! Look, Robbie, we're here!" Cat cut him off.

"Hmm? I guess so." Robbie sighed. "I just wish I could tell her how much I care for her." After walking through the doors and waiting in line Cat ordered two red velvet ice cream cones.

"What, I don't get to pick which one I want?" Robbie asked jokingly.

"Hmm…Nope!" Cat laughed. The duo walked off to a secluded corner of the shop and sat down to eat their treat.

"You know, I really think I'm starting to love red velvet." Robbie said.

"Really? I knew you would, it's so good!" Cat exclaimed.

"Cat you've got ice cream on your lip." Robbie laughed. After a few moments of Cat comically trying to lick it off of her lower lip, Robbie said, "Here let me get it." Robbie picked up a napkin and leaned across the table to wipe off the ice cream. "Man, she's so beautiful. Now's my chance! I could just lean in and kiss her, sweep her off of her feet." And Robbie did just that. Instead of lifting the napkin to her face, he just continued to lean forward. Cat's eyes started to close as she leaned closer as well…that is until a familiar voice yelled to them from across the room.

"Hey! Cat, Robbie, where are you guys." Shouted Beck from the front of the store. "Why did you have to walk in Beck? Just a few more seconds, that's all I needed." Robbie quickly used the previously forgotten napkin to wipe the ice cream away and jumped back into his seat across from Cat. Beck and the rest of the gang, having noticed where they were sitting, walked over and sat down with them.

"Hey guys, sorry we showed up without saying." Tori said. "Turns out we weren't that busy after all, so we all decided to meet you two out here."

"H-hey, don't worry about it. I have to get going anyway, I've gotta go get some homework done." Robbie said nervously, getting up to go. Cat looked up sadly, but Robbie was unable to see because he ran out the door so fast.

"What's wrong, Little Red?" Andre' asked.

"Oh, nothing. Did you know they had red velvet ice cream here?" Cat said changing the subject. "If only they hadn't walked in…" She thought.
