7. G - Gaudy
It was another one of those irritatingly hot summer days, and Sam wasn’t happy about it.
But, Sam knew just how to remedy that.
“You ran out of popsicles?!”
Or not.
Now Sam wasn’t just irritated now; he was frustrated. In his sweat-induced rage, he began to yell at the girl behind the counter.
And oh, how she yelled back.
“It’s not my fault that we’ve run out, sir,” screamed the popsicle girl. “Besides, even if we did have some left, I would rather eat it myself than sell it to a smelly and gaudy–”
“Gaudy? Who the hell uses the word ‘gaudy’ anymore?” Sam pretended to be nonchalant about it, but he couldn’t help but look down at his board shorts.
She eyed him skeptically. “When’d you get them?”
“Three years ago. But that doesn’t matter.” How dare she mock him!
He had expected her to retort, but instead, she smiled. “Well,” she paused, and suddenly her entire disposition had changed, “I’m almost done here, so I could help you buy new shorts, if you’d like.”
Sam knew she was flirting. “Sure, I have time. I’ll take your help as an apology then?” Hey, she was cute, and he needed a replacement for his popsicle.
The woman’s smile grew wider as she laughed. “Fine.” She began to walk away when she added, “By the way, I’m Natasha.”
He couldn’t help but smile back. “Sam,” he told her, and she nodded in acknowledgement before disappearing into the storage room.
Okay, Sam thought, today wasn’t such a bad day after all.

So I kinda used more than 200 words, but I couldn't help it. =\ Anyhow, yeah, really random. Short and sweet? xD
Feel free to comment and scrutinize my work. It's not editted and proof-read, so all mistakes are mine.
