He sounds like they are going to be a fun pair  Faye Ellison Faye stands at 5’3 and has a small but mighty frame. She the type of person you can easily spit in a crowd with her nesrlt white hair she is hard to miss. She keeps it at her shoulders and often puts some kind of half up half down style. Her eyes are almond shaped and a pale blue color. Her skin is lightly subkissed and she has freckles on her shoulders and arms. Sarcastic/ Outgoing/ Prone to teasing I just modeled mine after yours  |

(Perfect ) It had been a long day considering that it had started the night before. Her father had kept her all night dealing with some trouble they'd been having with a smaller gang trying to make their way into their turf. Negotiations had turned for the worse and well now some people were injured that was all as far as she knew at least. Faye hadn't bothered to learn much more about it after she'd left. Today was her day off a day to have some fun so, of course, she'd made plans with a friend. Faye was perched up on a tall chair, she liked sitting at the taller tables. The cafe was your typical scene, people studying or doing work, someone reading a book, and a couple having their first meeting. The white-haired girl sat playing with her straw with one hand and playing candy crush in the other. She was ignoring text messages regarding business, dammit she'd told them she was taking the day off. 'Tes hurry up my coffee is getting cold waiting for you  ' She sent the message and sipped on the blended coffee drink she'd ordered. She didn't know what they were going to do today but coffee was the only thing keeping her out of bed for the whole day. He wasn't late or anything she was just texting him to be annoying, something she liked to do, messing with him was fun. After all if she didn't mess with Tessa she wasn't having a good time. (it is a little short but here you go! ) |

No worries, mine might be short too since I'm using my phone.}}
Also Happy belated Thanksgiving!}
Tes got her text and replied strictly in emojis :liar: followed by :bike: He was only a block away and would soon have the chance to say more in person. Plus texting while driving was dangerous let alone while riding a bike, best to keep his eyes on the road.
Swiftly, the boy unmounted and perched the bike on the nearest glass window, not bothering to tether it to anything. The door jingled as Tes pushed it open, in which he paused only to say a few greetings to the people nearby. He glanced around until he spotted Faye, with her light colored hair, and flashed a smile and a wave before sliding up to the counter to order something. He didn't wait a moment more before striding over to the tall table of her perch.
"Just so you know, I am never late." He flashed the clock on his phone. It was 2 minutes before their arranged meeting time. Meanwhile, his other hand found her coffee cup and snatched it. "And if your coffees too cold for you, I don't mind drinking it." He raised it dangerously close to his lips.

(Happy belated Thanksgiving! I hope you had a good time ) Her phone buzzed and she laughed quietly to herself, of course he knew she didn't get a hot drink. It was rare that she did, even if it was cold outside. So now she was just waiting for him to get there. Games on her phone it was. Only a few minutes passed before a familiar voice sounded from beside her, she'd been too focused on beating the level she was on to pay attention to when he'd come in. Tes taking her drink, now that was more than enough to catch her attention. "Hey!" She popped up to grab the drink from him a playful glare on her face, "Turns out frappes are supposed to be cold, false alarm." Faye popped the straw in her mouth sipping the coffee. "Oh also I won the race here, two minutes early and you still lost." He was never late, in fact most of the time it was her who was late so she was going to hold on to this victory or being there before him. It was a huge help that she'd picked this coffee shop considering it was a few minutes away from her apartment. This was strategic on her part, she wanted to win finally. Truth be told she hadn't been there for very long before texting him but she wasn't going to tell him that, not that the damn near perfect state of her frozen drink wasn't giving that away. Tessa had to figure that out himself. "Whats the plan today?" |

Thanks!}}
Tessa let her take the drink back easily. Sweet drinks were not for him anyways, so he was grateful he didn’t need to take a sip to get a reaction. “Mmmm” Tess hummed at her dry humor, giving a look of amusement while sliding up on the chair.
“How does it taste?” He quirked a thick eyebrow “Your victory?” His ego was not bruised by the loss but a realization of slacking came upon him. “I think maybe your laziness is rubbing off on me.” Tessa commented under his breath but loud enough to be heard. Meanwhile he brushed at his shoulder, as if he could get rid of a bad habit before it started. Typically he would’ve aimed for 10 minute promptness but only ever knowing Faye as tardy caused him to relax, this time. She wouldn’t be so lucky on the next.
He paused in thought at the final question. “I asked myself that same question on the way over here but luckily I ran into this guy…” Another pause occurred for dramatic effect as Tess patted the breast pocket of his flannel. Swiftly, he fished out a piece of paper from within. “...And he gave me this flyer. Said something about a scavenger hunt across town... or maybe an ice-cream venue? Perhaps there was a scavenger hunt that ended with ice cream? I was riding pretty fast.” Tess smoothed the white paper on the table, facing it towards Faye. “You interested?”

Faye couldn't wipe the smug grin off of her face "Never tasted sweeter." She knew she wouldn't get another chance to win unless she planned on giving him the wrong time for a meeting, but that wouldn't really be winning then would it? Meeting close to her house had given her the upper hand though, maybe they would meet her more often, so she had a fighting chance. "You could stand to be more like me. I'm a delight." She drank more of her drink and at this point, it was almost half gone.
Ice cream, now that sounded like a good time. She almost didn't hear the part about a scavenger hunt, that would be fun too. Even more so if she could get ice cream with it. Better not have been the prize, dangle that in front of her and not give it to her, free ice cream, that would be a crime if they did that. Faye grabbed the paper, ice cream, and a scavenger hunt and it wasn't too far away.
"Interested? You had me at ice cream." She popped off her chair, "Come on before they are all out of the good flavors!" She went past the counter and grabbed his drink waving it toward him as she headed toward the door.

“Off we go!” Tes chuckled, slipping out of his seat just as quickly in order to keep up with her. “You are definitely going to get a sugar high with a frappe AND ice cream.” He followed her out the door and took his coffee, a usual black with the slightest hint of creamer, from her hold. He wasn’t one for sweet things but he was looking forward to ice-cream with Faye.
“Check my ride.” Tessa commanded as soon as they exited. His bike was perched right on the big observation window of the café. It was not usual though, with fuzzy yellow pom poms at the end of the handlebars and a brown woven basket in front. Not to mention the yellow duck clip-on decorations on the wheels. He placed his coffee in the basket and flipped the kickstand with his foot. “Mine had a flat this morning and my sister says this bike is a one of a kind. I didn’t really ask to borrow it though, so when you see me beaten up and bleed’n on the street; just know I risked it all for you.”
The idea of being caught on a girls bike decked out in ducks didn’t bother Tes, then again, not much fazed him. He was too much of a roll with the punches, laugh at himself, kind of guy. “So what do you say? Is it too much of a quack up to ride?” He cracked a grin at his pun while holding out a helmet for Faye, incase she wanted to take up the offer.

"Yes, I will, and guess who has to deal with me when I'm talking at a mile a minute" Faye flash a big grin his way before turning to see where his bike was. Check my ride. She didn't see his bike she only saw a duck with wheels, but he was placing his drink in the basket. Now she couldn't wipe the grin off her face, "Never a dull moment with you huh?" She poked at the little poofs on the handles as she walked over to the bike. "I think this suits you more than the normal ride." Faye took the helmet and clipped it on, if any of her fathers people saw her right now, helmet, duck bike and a goofy grin on her face she'd never live it down.
But she was going to enjoy herself. "No I think its EGG-zackly the kind of ride we need." Faye looked at the paper once again for the address giggling to herself about her own pun, "Please tell me the squeak or something, or the bell quacks. That would be the most amazing thing ever. I'd beat you up too if you stole my quacking bike." The woman placed one foot on the peg on the back wheel. "Ready when you are."

“Ah… If you were wanting dull, then you should probably find another ride.” Tessa balanced the bike, making sure not to slosh his coffee too much in the basket. “And I would disagree, yellows not really my color.” He didn’t bother with a helmet because his only one was happily atop Fayes head. It was better there anyways. Tes waited for Faye to get on comfortably before pushing off. With her pun, a wild smile cracked again “Well, hopefully I never have to steal your bike, I couldn’t live down a beat down from the famous Faye Ellison. Hang on would ya?” He chimed, patting his shoulder with a free hand as an extra suggestion as he started down the road.
The whole way there Tessa did as Tessa does. Goofing around, weaving through streets, racing down inclines, even teetering around corners. The concern of getting there before icecream ran out was not as big as having fun on the way there. All the while, Tessa took directions from Faye on the exact way to get there. Luckily for her it was a short ride. “It doesn’t help that they are both taller than me when I am the oldest.” Tes finished up a comment on his sisters and some jibber jabber about the struggles of inheriting the short gene of his family. He rolled up the sidewalk to a grassy knoll that overlooked the growing crowd below.

(Here you go! I finally got her up ) They always had a good time together, so the grin she wore was probably going to be a staple as long as Tes was around. It was a nice break from everything else in her life. "I dunno I think the ducky look is top tier." Faye enjoyed teasing him, it was kind of one her favorite pass times. If only he knew how actually famous an Ellison beat downs was. She just laughed and held on to his shoulder where he'd patted. Faye had almost forgotten just how chaotic bike rides with Tessa were. So after the first corner she'd ended up wrapping her arm around his shoulders completely just so she wouldn't fly off. Of course, she was having plenty of fun letting her head fall back until they needed to weave through people or past trashcans too close for comfort at least. Once they arrived Faye loosened her grip on Tess' shoulder and hopped off the bike. "Dude you are preaching to the choir do you see how tall I am? I've seen kids taller than me." Looking out across the grassy area Faye took a deep breath in, enjoying the smell of fresh air removing the helmet she put it in the basket on the bike and put her hands on her hips. "Ice cream time Duck boy." The girl grabbed his wrist as soon as he put the bike away and proceeded to drag him toward the crowd, "Can you see a sign up booth or something?" |

"Why do you think I'm friends with you, Shorty?" He teased. "It's nice to not have to look up for once." Tessa found a secure place for the bike. No doubt his head would roll if anything bad happened to it. Although easy going, Tess really hoped to die for a more heroic reason than by his sister's hand.
Tess was just grabbing his coffee out of the basket when Faye grabbed him. Thankfully the lid prevented any spillage, especially since he hadn't even taken a proper sip yet. The lurch was surprising but Faye was obviously excited, so he didn’t mind. “I probably see more than you do.” His eyes scanned their surroundings for the thing she was looking for and he was momentarily quite as she pulled him away from it. If Faye knew anything about him, silence was never a good thing. Tess acted unknowing as he interested himself with his coffee instead; taking savory sips and pondering deeply about the flavor.
“Ice cream on the brain huh?” Tess was relentless and would probably even tease Faye with his dying breath. They had marched right into an assembly of ice cream vendors but none of them looked open yet. He started with a deep satisfying sigh. “Well, it might help if you were heading in the right direction.” Tess finally spoke up with the mock chastising of a jokester. Even though he could only call it dumb luck to have seen the register point, he wouldn’t have confessed it.
A sly smirk emerged as he switched their grasp, instead encasing her wrist and gently turning Faye around. All the while capturing her shoulders under his arm. He figured keeping her close was his best chance at not getting assaulted for tomfoolery. Doubly so since it involved her precious ice cream. Up ahead a green truck sat in the park, blending in with the vibrancy of the grass. People were departing in haphazard ways, all seeming to have a different route in mind. This left only a few people waiting in line, where off to the right stood a sign with red paint. ‘Register Here.’
