Howie Being Forced to Relax by a Bunch of Gay Teenagers

Spa Shopping..Spopping?

Spike, Car Crash, Crusher, Giovanni and Molly all made their way to the store. It was called Sweet Jazz General Market. They did get caught in a bit of traffic so they decided to actually discuss what they were going to buy.
"We should get face masks, obviously!" Giovanni started.
"Maybe something with some sort of bee theme? Howie likes bees." Molly continued.
"Honey is good for the skin too! So maybe something with a honey base?" Spike thought out loud.
Car Crash didn't respond, he was fully focused on the road.
"Car Crash?" Giovanni tried to get his attention.
No response.
"Fred!" Spike poked him in the arm.
Still, no response.
Giovanni stuck his hand up. He counted down on his fingers: 3..2..1.!
"CAR CRASH!!" The three screamed at the same time, making him jerk the steering wheel slightly. They veered off for just a moment before Car Crash was able to not live up to his name and steady the car again.
"Guys! Don't do that! I'm trying not to crash!" He looked over at the three. Spike was in the passenger's seat, given that she had called shot gun. Giovanni was behind Car Crash in the back and Molly was behind Spike in the back.
"We're stuck in traffic Car Crash! You don't need to be so worried." Giovanni explained.
"We're still moving!" He argued.
"I'm just saying, you should relax!"
"I-I can't!"
"Why not?"
"I-I just can't!"
"Psh, you're just being a scaredy cat." Spike rolled her eyes.
"Well I'm sorry for making an effort to keep you guys safe!" He snapped, "I get really worried that I might hurt one of you guys! I try to do my best but the roads are wiggly!! So I NEED to focus!" His grip tightened on the wheel, he was now squinting and staring at the road as some cars began to move.
"You really need glasses. We're going to go to the eye doctor when we get a chance." Giovanni gave Fred's fluffy hair a pat.
"I don't need glasses. I don't have the cash to keep them anyhow."
"Then I'll pay for them." Giovanni sighed. "I've started making some money, so soon I should be able to help you buy glasses."
"You've been making money?" Spike asked. "How?"
"Oh! I sometimes sell the soup I make. Sometimes with my epithet, sometimes from scratch." He sighed. "I also...knit sometimes.." He muttered embarrassedly.
"Really? Cool! I bet you knit totally awesome battle outfits!"
"Yeah! But I also one time helped my aunt make blankets for my little cousins.." He looked away, red creeping up his face from embarrassment.
"Awesome! Battle blankies! Did they have like..fire on them?"
"No! Lions actually!" He looked back excitedly.
"Cool! Haha! You should make Car Crash a car blanket!" Spike gave Car Crash a joking nudge on the arm, making him flinch. Hard.
"Sorry, sorry!" Spike said quickly.
Car Crash didn't respond, he was too focused on the road.
"Maybe I should..Also Spike don't hit him." Giovanni reprimanded. "He's doing his best to drive us, as he said before."
Spike nodded. "Yeah, my bad."
During all of this, Molly was texting Bryce.

Bryce 🐝🍯
Molly: Pfft! Your not gonna believe what they're talking about.
Bryce: What?
Molly: Knitting Blankies!!
Bryce: Lol! Why?
Molly: Apparently Giovanni sells some stuff he knits, and one time he helped his aunt make blankies for his little cousin.
Bryce: Cute, my brother knows how to crochet actually!
Molly: He does?
Bryce: Yeah! Bruce likes making bee themed things. But he does other things too.
Molly: Bruce? That's your brother?
Bryce: My twin brother! We look pretty similar but once you get to know us you can tell us apart.
Molly: Batman!
Bryce: Lol yeah, I have to go. Darkstar is talking about astronomy and it's actually really interesting!
Molly: Ooh! You'll have to tell me about it when I get back!
Bryce: I'm sure he'll do it for me, lol! I'll see you soon Molly! And be careful, if I had to guess..'Car Crash' aint the best driver eh?
Molly: No..We think it's because he has a stigmatism.
Bryce: Ah, I see. Adios!
Molly: Bye!

Molly looked back up just as Car Crash was parking. "Alright! Let's go!" Giovanni was the first to get out of the car. Followed by Spike and Car Crash, then Molly. They began walking through the parking lot, being careful to look both ways before crossing. As per Giovanni's orders to keep them safe. "Alright! We should be good to go!" Giovanni commanded. Molly stepped forward, but just as she did a fancy sports car came flying by. Giovanni pulled her back in the nick of time! "THIS IS A PARKING LOT YOU JERK!" He yelled at the top of his lungs, hoping the driver heard him. After Giovanni took a moment to calm down, they carefully walked into the store.
(A/N: For reference, this place is set up like a Walmart but is as big as an Ikea!! No not you Hex)
"Alright! Where should we go first?" Giovanni asked.
"I think the spa stuff would be in the back near the personal hygiene things..Right?" Molly asked aloud. "I think so.." Spike replied.
"Off we go then!" Giovanni took Molly's hand and they were off! Spike followed, but Car Crash just ended up walking into a shelf and falling over, followed by an uncanny amount of potato chips.
Car Crash did a sort of terminator thumbs up before sinking into the potato chips.
Spike sighed and Giovanni face palmed. "What a dork!" Giovanni reached into the pile of chips and yanked a very dizzy Car Crash out. "If I have to hold your hand too I will!" Giovanni threatened. "People are gonna think we're gay if you do." Car Crash said snarkily.
"I'm bi you're pan, doesn't matter!" He grabbed Fred's hand before dragging him along. Molly let go of Giovanni's hand and just sighed.
"Men, huh?" Spike looked down at Molly with a dorky grin.
"Yeah.." Molly sighed, she took a few bags of potato chips and put them back on the shelf. "That's fine..right?" Molly looked back at Spike who nodded. "Guess so." She grabbed one as well and put it back, but both of them jumped up when they heard someone yell.
"HEY! WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING?" It was a worker!
Spike looked at Molly, Molly looked at Spike. They then grabbed hands and yelled. "RUUUN!" Before booking it away hand-in-hand.
(A/N: They were holding hands in a sort of sisterly way. I Hc that they have a sort of sister relationship.)
Spike and Molly ran past Car Crash and Giovanni. Molly yelled "WORKER!" As they rushed by. Car Crash and Giovanni looked back, no longer holding hands before catching up.
"WHATDOWEDOWHATDOWEDO??" Car Crash yelped in a panic, before stumbling and nearly falling over.
"SPLIT UP! WE'LL MEET AT THE ENTRANCE!" Molly quickly veered off to the right, bringing Spike with her. As Giovanni and Car Crash went to the left. Spike and Molly heard a thud, which they could only assume was Car Crash. But they didn't look back, they both just went: "OOF!" Before finding an escalator and going up.

Meanwhile, it was in fact Car Crash. Giovanni helped him up and they continued to run. The worker had followed them and not the girls so they really needed to run. "I'VE GOT AN IDEA, C'MON!" Giovanni took Car Crash's hand and made his way to the furniture section. "WHAT ARE WE DOING??" He asked in total confusion. "JUST FOLLOW MY LEAD!"

Back with Spike and Molly, the two were panting and trying to catch their breath. Fred and Giovanni had gotten the worker off their tail.
"Phew!" Spike straightened up and looked around. "Oh! Look!" Spike pointed. Molly looked to where Spike was pointing and saw that they were right in front of the personal hygiene section. "Nice!" She smiled.

Giovanni ran over to section that was mostly pillows and beds, and grabbed as many pillows as he could. And Car Crash did the same. Just as the worker got close, the both dumped all of the pillows onto worker. The heap shifted slightly, but then Giovanni and Car Crash booked it. "To the entrance!" Giovanni proclaimed, holding hands with Car Crash who had stumbled over an astray pillow. "Right!" Car Crash agreed.

Spike and Molly looked over every part of the personal hygiene isle, finding different kinds of face masks, face mists, and overall just spa products. They took a few honey based things and a random cucumber that someone left in that section to put over their eyes. Then made their way to the self checkout.

Giovanni and Fred waited outside patiently, "I'll go get the car so we can just drive off when they get out." He suggested.
"Sure, just..be careful okay? And I'm sorry for what happened in the car."
Fred only smiled. "It's fine, boss! And I'll be careful." And with that, he walked off into the parking lot.

Spike and Molly carefully made their way to the self checkout and managed to scan everything without a problem. They made their way outside and met up with Giovanni.
"Hey Boss!" Spike and Molly said at the same time. "Where's Car Crash?" Molly asked.
"He's getting the car..Say..Didn't Crusher come with us?" Just as Giovanni said this, his phone buzzed.  It was a text from Car Crash that said:
"Crusher fell asleep in the car, we all forgot about him."
Giovanni snickered. "We forgot Crusher in the car." He sighed. "That lovable dork."
"Oooh! Shiiip it!" Molly and Spike fist bumped.
"Wha- HEY!" He turned red in the face.
The two chuckled until Fred pulled up, a very sleepy looking Crusher in the backseat.
"Shot gun!" Spike went to the front seat. Neither Boss nor Molly protested and the two climbed into the backseat.
They then all drove back to Molly's house, and arrived to..quite the scene.
