Belle had just finished her last day at Buzzed, the coffee shop she worked at, and was headed to Bradley Video. Randy still had three days left before he was actually done at the video store.

He had been fired twice before, re-hired each time, and Belle was sure that if was ever in Woodsboro and needed a job that they'd welcome him back with open arms.

Much to Belle's surprise, Randy was all alone in the video store when she arrived. He stuck his head up over the shelf he was at.

"Bella! You're here!" he yelled.

"I couldn't not come for your last few days!" She laughed.

Randy sat back down as Belle came over to where we was at on the floor.

"What're we shelving tonight?" She asked.

"The pornos," Randy said, handing her a stack of videos.

"That's always fun," Belle joked, looking at the stack in front her.

"I can't believe people have the guts to rent this shit," She said, sliding a copy of Super Hornio Brothers back in to it's place.

"It is the most awkward exchange," Randy laughed. They shelved the movies in relative silence, occasionally showing the other a particularly funny cover.

It was Belle who initiated it, at least she was pretty sure it was.

Randy held up a copy of The Adultery Diaries: One More Time While I'm Still Wet laughing hysterically at it. Belle had started laughing just as hard at the title and the half-naked woman on the cover.

When they stopped laughing, they had taken notice to just how close they were standing. He looked down at her, she up at him. They were staring each other dead in the eye, faces only inches apart.

Belle thought she moved in first, but it was possible that it had been Randy. The before would be the least of Belle's memory from the night. It was, of course, completely believable that the two had moved in at the same time.

Regardless of how it happened, their lips connected passionately. Belle heard Randy drop his copy of The Adultery Diaries with a clatter on the floor as his hands connected with her hips.

"I think we've put up enough movies for tonight," Belle mumbled.

"I completely agree," Randy said, pulling Belle's yellow snoopy shirt over her head and tossing it elsewhere. It was somewhat difficult, given it was tucked in to her jean shorts. Randy paused and pulled his head back, looking Belle in the eyes.

"There's cameras," He said, pointing to the ceiling.

"Then we lock up and leave," Belle responded, looking around for her shirt.
