"I would love it if you were my teacher!" Aithne agreed readily. "And it's okay, I promise to practice very hard when you can't teach me. I want to be as good as you one day~" Aithne happily skipped into a resturant, running off to find a booth for the three of them to sit in.
Seth walked up behind Alex, holding the door open for her. Leaning close to her he said, "I really do appreciate you offering to take time out of your schedule to help my sister. I tried to help her but like she said, I'm horrible at it. I tend to just look the steps up on Youtube and have her watch it on there." He smiled a bit. "Plus, I can tell she's very fond of you, so having a female around to help her will make her the happiest child alive." Not to mention if Alex were going to start helping Aithne, Seth would have an excuse to see her again.

Alex glowed at her compliment and nodded. "Alright...", She could barely add in another word because the girl was skipping happily into the restaurant before she had a chance to thank her. She shook her head in amusement as she entered the restaurant, grinning at Seth in thanks for holding the door for her. "It's not a problem; it's hard when you're at that stage of dancing and have no one to guide you. I'm glad that I can help; she's a sweet kid." She chuckled as she slowly followed Aithne to where she had chosen a seat for them. "Besides, I'd be surprised if you were good at ballet, though I would love to see you try." She waggled her eyebrows at him and grinned. She stopped when they were just a few feet away from Aithne and she put a hand on his arm. "And maybe next time, we can hang out... Just the two of us?" Alex didn't wait for a reply as she slid into a seat beside Aithne. "Do you know what you want to get honey?"

"Oh no, watching me try ballet would be disatrous for both of us. No coordination whatsoever in these bones." He stopped walking when she did. He opened his mouth to answer but didn't get a chance when she turned away from him, sitting next to his sister. He slid into the booth across from the two.
Aithne swung her legs as she piped, "Milkshake!"
"Aithne." Seth said immediately.
"Oh right. Um...what do they have here?" Aithne asked, remember her promise about eating real food first.

Alex snorted in amusement as a waitress came by to take their orders. "I'll get a vanilla milkshake and french fries." She laughed at the serious tone that came from Seth when Aithne forgot about 'real food'. "Well they sell cheeseburgers if you like those; and typical diner food." She said with a laugh. "I can't really ascertain to what they buy because the only things I really order here are french fries and milkshakes."

"Mmmm cheeseburger. I'll have that and a strawberry milkshake~" Aithne said, after looking at her brother for approval. "I'll just have a fry." Seth said. The waitress told them their order would be up in a second and walked away. "Big brother, thank you for taking us out~" Aithne said suddenly, swinging her legs again. Seth smiled. "Your welcome Sunshine. Are you having fun so far today?" "Yes~!" Aithne giggled. "That's good. I am having a good time too." He briefly glanced up at Alex before looking back at his sister.

Alex grinned at him when he briefly looked up at her. She turned to the little girl beside her and smiled. "So you like strawberry milkshakes, Aithne?" She preferred vanilla or chocolate milkshakes herself. She lightly prodded Seth's foot under the table, smiling teasingly at him. "What about you? Are you a chocolate or vanilla type of person?"

"Oh yes~" Aithne giggled. "It's pink, and I love pink!" Aithne loved anything that was pink, including food. "Hmm..." Seth thought for a moment. He didn't really drink milkshakes so he couldn't really tell which was his favorite. "I don't know." He smirked at her. "I may have to steal some of yours to see."

The waitress arrived with their food and Alex smiled her thanks as she took her shake and set it in between her and Seth. "Be my guest then." She winked at him as she took a French fry and chewed on it thoughtfully, swallowing before turning to Aithne. "Anything pink huh? So I'm guessing your room at home is pink?" She scrunched up her nose dramatically. "I'm not such a fan of pink, I'm afraid but because you like it, I promise to like it a bit more."

Aithne took a bite of her burger. "Mmhmm." She swallowed, smiling at Alex. "Pink is my favortist color." Seth took the opportunity to reach over and snag a few fries from her, even though he had his own. Like his siblings always said, food was way better when it wasn't your own. He chuckled, finding a spoon and using that to take some of her shake. "Mmm, I think vanilla may be my new favorite. Not quite sure yet."

Alex laughed at Aithne and took a French fry from Seth's basket just because he had taken some of hers. "My favorite color's green." She turned her attention to Seth before taking a sip of her shake and sighing in pleasure. "Naah, I bet you're just saying that so I'd like you more." She waggled her eyebrows playfully at him as she took another French fry and bit into it absently. "What's your favorite ice cream flavor?"

Seth laughed. "Maybe I am." He took a fry and holding it up to his lips. "Hmm..." He popped the fry into his mouth as he thought about the question. "I'm not sure. My family eats Mint Chocolate Chip at lot." He grabbed a few more french fries. "I don't think I have a favorite. I tend to eat almost anything." He grinned, snagging her shake and using the spoon to scoop up more of the shake. "Have you ever tried dipping your fry into your milkshake?" He asked. "I hear it's pretty good."

Alex laughed at how nonchalantly he had admitted it. "Well that's what they eat... What do you eat?" She scoffed in disbelief. "It's impossible for you not to have a favorite ice cream flavor, right Aithne?" She turned to the girl who was busy eating her burger. "What's your favorite ice cream flavor?" She watched Seth take more of her shake and she nodded with a grin. "My little sister does that a lot."

"Right~" Aithne agreed, taking another bite of her burger. It was already more than halfway gone. "My favorite is strawberry." There wasn't much of a surprise to that answer. Seth chuckled. "It is not impossible but if you must have an answer, I would say my favorite is Butter Pecan." He smiled a bit and put a bit of the shake from the spoon onto a fry. "Hmm. Not bad."

Alex grinned, glad that she had backup in Aithne. "Exactly." She laughed at Aithne's choice of ice cream, knowing she should have thought of that. "I like strawberry too but I think my favorite has to be cookie dough ice cream." She munched on a couple of fries and watched Seth in amusement as he proclaimed that the fry and shake mixture was not bad. "Yeah, I don't think I've ever seen Jackie order fries by themselves. She always needs a milkshake to dunk it in." She turned to watch Aithne finish her cheeseburger, drawing the tall glass of strawberry milkshake closer to Aithne so she could enjoy her treat for finishing her food.

"Exactly." She grinned at Seth, glad that she had back-up in the form of his little sister, Aithne. Alex wasn't too surprised at Aithne's choice of ice cream flavor and even laughed at the fact that she didn't beat the girl to the punch. "See? You have a favorite ice cream flavor after all. For me? I love Cookie Dough ice cream. People actually bribe me with the stuff." She waggled her eyebrows playfully at Seth. "Of course it's good."
