Food Field Trips, Friday 9/20 2nd Period

[stykera]

Another Friday and another trip to Portalocity for the Food Field Trips class.

“Candy today,” Stark said. “Jelly beans, specifically. I know they get eaten more around Easter but they’re good any time.”

There was probably a student enthusiastically agreeing with him right this moment.

“We’ll be going to the Jelly Belly factory in Fairfield, CA. There’s a factory tour and ‘museum experience’ and a train to ride and of course plenty of candy to eat. If everyone’s here, and ready, let’s go, shall we?”

Maybe it was strawberry then! But maybe it wasn't. Maybe it was flavored like something that wasn't pink at all. Or something horrible that was pink. Like that medicine for digestive troubles, for example.

But maybe it was something nice that was pink that they didn't make. Pink lemonade, maybe.

"I want to say strawberry," Stark said after far too long. "But I'm not sure. Because it could be something else entirely it could be...bubblegum?"

He wasn't sure where the thought had come from but now it was out there.

And then Summer grinned, a proud sort of grin, and she moved the jelly bean in her hand to her fingers so that, when she put it to Stark's lips so that he could eat it and taste not only her kiss but the validation that he'd guessed exactly right with bubble gum, yes.

Stark managed a very soft press of his lips to her fingertips as he accepted the candy but once her lips were there instead he put much more into that kiss.

"That was a very good prize."

That deserved another, softer kiss.

"I'm very glad I got it right."

"I knew you'd like it," Summer said, grinning triumphantly, and then she had to laugh. "I'm honestly pretty impressed you managed to get it, too! I was going to really throw you through a loop and do one of the strawberry milk tea boba ones, but I decided to be nice, especially after my class."

Also, it was hard to find an isolated picture of that one by itself for reference!

"That would have been cheating!"

It would have been no such thing. He knew it.

"But I never would have guessed that. Not even if I'd thought all day. I don't even know why I thought of bubblegum it just... seemed like it might be right? Because it was a little odd and not really food but pink..."
