The Simple Things (KinnPorsche The Series Fanfiction)

Monthly shopping

"Pol, I'm going shopping. Is there anything you need?"

"It's also my day-off, let's go together."

Arm turned to look at him.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course!"

"I could spend hours going through each shelves just to make sure I got everything."

"Well, then it would be nice to have a company, right?"

"Don't go whining to me about your legs getting sore, okay?" Arm grinned widely.

"Yes, Sir!" Pol nodded and saluted, which resulted in Arm playfully slapped his arm.

An hour later, he almost regretted his decision, though. But, of course, he wouldn't say anything.

He's used to those harsh training as a bodyguard, but walking slowly around the shelves really is another level of training. Remind him to ask Chan to add walking slowly for hours as a new training method.

No wonder Arm always looks so tired after doing his monthly shopping. Or theirs, to be exact. Pol always tease him about it, that his age finally catched up with him.

But it looks like his own is catching up with him, too.

"Oh, it's a new one!" Arm's eyes light up at a new flavour of milk in front of him.

"Looks like they just release this banana flavoured milk. Should we try it?" He turns his head to Pol, his hand holding up a box of milk.

"Why not?"

After putting the milk inside the trolley, Arm take out a list from his pocket. It's one thing that Pol noticed from his best friend‐turned-lover. While he's known with his reputation as an in-house tech, Arm still prefers to write down everything he needs to remember on a paper rather than typing it on his tablet.

His long list of groceries is no exception.

"I'll take the trolley from here. You can walk ahead and keep your eyes on the shelves instead."

Pol put a hand on Arm's shoulder and peck him on the cheek before taking over the trolley. Arm laughed softly and tiptoed to kiss him back.

They stop in front of cheese section. Arm scanned the shelf before taking packs of sliced cheddar.

"We should also get some ramen. Ramen taste really great with cheese." Pol said, grinning widely.

"We could just get some in the restaurant." Arm argued.

"And risk getting interrupted with Khun Kim and Khun Tankhun bickering which ended up in we didn't even get to have a bite of it? No, definitely not. We really should buy our own ramen and cook it in our kitchen." Pol shakes his head, shuddering at the thought.

Their next stop is the cereal section. Arm is eyeing the shelves for the largest size of his favorite cornflakes. Upon realizing that it's on the highest shelves, he sigh in exasperation.

Pol chuckle before stepping closer and get it for him.

"Are you testing my sensitivity, or you're just too proud to ask for my help?" Pol asks while arranging the cornflakes inside the trolley.

"Both." Arm snorted in return.

Pol makes a mental note to be more sensitive for his shy lover's needs.

After two hours and a half of walking around, the couple finally finish their supermarket tour with a cardbox full of groceries.

"It feels strange." Arm suddenly spoke as they're loading the groceries into Pol's motorcycle luggage.

"What?"

"Having someone with me here, it feels strange."

Pol smiles, closing the luggage.

"I'll go with you next month, next month, and onward until I can't do it anymore, so that you'll soon forgot how it feels to go alone." Pol said, helping Arm with his helmet before putting on his own.

They get on to the motorcycle and leave the supermarket. Arm wrapped his arm tightly around Pol's waist, his body leaning agains Pol's back.

"Pol."

"Yes?"

"Thank you." Pol could see Arm smiling happily from the rearview. He doesn't know how many times someone can fall in love with a person in a lifetime, but he wouldn't mind falling in love for a million times with Arm.
