Ice followed Willow into town and down the streets of Ponyville until they reached the CC Cafe.
He held the door open for her, followed her in, and grabbed a table.

"Oh thank you!" Willow said as Ice opened the door for her. Such a gentle-stallion, she thought. She sat across from him at the table and opened a menu. "Ooh all that sawing really made me hungry..."

"Don't I know it!" he answered.
He looked over the menu for a quick second, then closed it and laid it down.
"I'm gonna get the BLT and a soda." he said. He watched Willow as she studied her menu. Her mane flowed over her neck and cascaded down by her front legs. He wasn't aware he was staring.

She continued to look through the menu and said, "Hmm, wellll.... The club sandwich looks very appetizing but I think I'll go with the southwestern chicken soup." She slid her menu back on the table. She was really glad she met Ice. he was such a cool person to hang around with.... not to mention a hottie!

They placed their orders and, soon enough, their food was set before them.
"Looks yummy," said Ice, "but I bet your sandwiches are better!" he said sincerely, sipping his soda.
"So, Do you have... aaah... you know... a boyfriend?" he asked a little hesitantly.

Willow giggled at his question, he was so cute about asking her. "Nope... I'm single" She sipped her soup, it was delicious. "Sooo...err.ummm...how about you?"

"Nah. No one. But that's not to say I'm not open to the idea." he said matter-of-factly.
He took a bite of the sandwich and washed it down with his soda.
"I've never really dated anyone. I grew up with my parents and brothers and we roamed a lot. I never really spent enough time in one place to get to know anyone well enough." he told her.

Willow raised an eyebrow at Ice' responce. "Yeah I was a family filly too. I havent really "dated" either." At least she didnt think that one time with tristan would be considered a date... She kinda cringed to think of tristan walking into the cafe and seeing her here. But what was she to be afraid of? Tristan showed no sign of loving her and she was ok with that. It would just be awkward if he found her here...

"Really? Well, that's one more thing we have in common." he said smiling. "So, do you have family around here?" he asked.
A waitress came and refilled his soda. He lifted the glass and took a sip, wondering if Willow realized how much he liked her.

"Uh my family is no longer....around." Sighing, Willow proceeded her story "See, back about 10 years ago my tribe was attacked my a plague carried by bushwoolies. Everyone died in my tribe except for me.... I dunno, I was only 11 but i...err... slaughtered every single bushwoolie as a act to protect the rest of ponyville. Thank goodness only my tribe died... I had to bury every single tribe member after the incident but i have only grown stronger from all of it." Willow tried to compose herself and wiped a few tears from her eyes and smiled at Ice. He made her feel relaxed. the story had to come out sometime..

He was sorry he asked. "Oh! God! I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked that." He handed her a napkin. He felt awful. "I'm sorry to have brought it up."
He couldn't stand that she was crying. "Do we need to leave?" he asked, concerned.

She gave Ice a smile through her tears. "Really, I'm ok. I'm glad you asked the question i had to tell someone. No we dont need to leave. Your so polite." She took the napkin he gave her and dabbed some tears her face was now dry. She took another sip of her soup. "This is really good soup. Would you like to try some?" It indeed was good soup it had succulent pieces of chicken breast and the broth had a creamy texture. There was fresh corn in it too it was mixed among the herbs. It wasn't spicy but it had a southwestern flavor.

"As long as you're sure you're ok." he said, still concerned.
She offerred to share her soup with me...how sweet., he thought. "No thanks, I'm really not much of a soup pony." he said, shaking his head a bit. He just took another sip of his soda.
"I think I will have something sweet, though." he picked up the menu and looked it over. He then ordered a Hot Fudge Brownie Sundae.

"Oh ok." "Mmmmm That sundae sounds really appitezing." Willow finished her soup and decided she'd order an after-dinner cappicino. "Sooo..what kinda music do you like?"

The waitress brought out his sundae and set it in front of him. It looked delicious.
"Music? Let's see." he said , then thought for a moment. "I guess I like a little bit of everything." He took a bite of his sundae. Yum... he thought.
"I guess you could say that classic rock is my favorite. Anything with a good guitar solo." he said with a nod. "And you?" he asked.
