Samuel Emerson One Shots

Cards

I hurried myself down the street knowing I was running a little late stupid Boss making me clean the bar down that's not even my job but it's over now for another four days. I headed down the still rainy streets until I spotted the boy I was looking for and I jumped into his arms

"AHH! Hi y/n!"

"Hi Sammy"

"Particular reason for almost throwing me across the street?"

"Cause I miss you"

"Awww I miss you too. Work okay?"

"I don't wanna talk about it"

"No problem. Did you get paid?"

"I did"

"Okay, me to let's go sort stuff out" he smiled we went to the bank and made sure the money for rent and bills was in the correct account putting our normal budget aside for groceries and counting up our spending money for this week "do we have enough?' he asked excitedly

"Just." I smiled

"Yes!"

He quickly grabbed my hand and we headed down the streets until we reached out usual little comic book store he of course went straight for his phantom halo comics, I looked around the comics, graphic novels and manga for a while but nothing I liked would be out till next month, so I looked around the plushies, the bags, badges and other such nerdy merch that filled the comic books stores Isles I grabbed a little bowl set designed after some movies we liked mostly because it was reduced and took it to the till Samuel arriving with his comics and I grabbed myself some trading card packs as always we paid and Samuel took the bag excitedly so we headed home to our little apartment it wasn't much but for a first apartment for the two of us it was home. I let him run off with his comics and I started on dinner using up the little of what was left in the cupboards and i brought it to the table "comics down its dinner time"

"Ohh thank you sweetheart" he smiled giving my cheek a kiss as he put stuff away and we had dinner and of course he went straight back to his comics so I got my binder and opened a pack of cards sorting the new into their slots and the doubles onto my trading pile "can I open one?" He asks as he finished a comic

"Why?'

"You always get so much joy out of it, it's okay if not"

"You can, just be careful"

"I will I'll be gentle"

"Good but not what I meant" I smiled handing him a pack

"How so?"

"Cards can be addictive Samuel. Their cheap and it's a quick adrenaline rush. And we both know you have a bit of an additive personality flaw in your family'

"True. Maybe I shouldn't then" he says handing it back

"One pack won't hurt. Well do it together" I smiled so we opened it up and flipped through them

"Ooohh I got a shiny!"

"I already have that one"

"Oh."

"Oooh but I don't have these" I smiled taking the four from the pack I didn't already have and he helped me find their place and add them to my binder

"I like it. It's nice I imagine satisfying to watch it fill it'

"It is" I smiled

"One more?"

"No."
