As he walked into the store, searching through the varieties, he noticed a girl. A beautiful one at that. She was turned away from him, looking at a particular product she may have found intriguing.

He couldn't help but to smile at her, as she turned around, finally feeling the intense penetrating gaze of the young soul that stood mere meters away from her.

She couldn't help the heat that flooded her blood, as a smile erupted upon her face, and before she would allow him to see it properly, she turned away. The smile still fresh upon her lips, only having his to grow even wider.

She had never felt a stare like that. It wasn't even the stare, or the smile he gave her. It was the fact that the young man was extremely attractive, a gasp had filled her thoughts once she took a look at him. He was such a fine specimen, and the aura he sent said "don't mess with me". Ignoring that aura for the time being, she just couldn't get the sight of the overly attractively male out of her head. She had seen him a few times before in her life—she felt so, she thought so—, but never like this.

As the male roamed the store, he just couldn't keep his eyes of the girl. She was just too beautiful, in his own eyes, for her own good. Maybe it was how attractive she was that drew him to her, or something else, but either way he shouldn't be thinking of her. Not now, not ever anyway, not with his title. He didn't think of females like this. Well not in this way, for another way and another reason, sure. Although, for some reason he couldn't.. Help it.

The two bodies had ended up on the same side of the room, at one point.

They didn't know how, but the items on the side of the store just drew them to that part. Even if the wall separated them with the ending of the corner, they were still only small yards apart. She reached up to grab the item in front of her, and as she did she took a glance at the boy beside her, as she saw him about to turn her way she quickly averted her gaze. Holding back a blooming smile as she bit down on her bottom lip.

He looked at the item which had caught his attention, it was exactly horizontal to his body. Surprisingly he had ended up near the girl. He watched her, studied her as she reached for the item before her, and as he saw that she was to turn his way, he quickly moved his gaze, allowing a small smirk to grow upon his face in the process.

A few moments passed before she looked at him as he turned and did the same. They both turned away with smiles gracing their lips. Childish antics written all over their faces. She grabbed what she wanted, before turning away and making her way to the register with the rest of her items she had gathered.

That was the last he saw of the girl that day. The boy, in their playfulness and stare down antics had forgotten to actually talk to her. To actually hold a verbal conversation, and hopefully even maybe have gotten her number. But unfortunately for him, he was too late. He wasn't even sure if he'd ever see her again. Maybe it was for the best. Who knows.

Then again. What 'was' he doing being so child like with a mere 'girl'. That was not what he was, that was not 'who' he was. He had bigger fish to fry, more important things to handle than ogle over some girl he didn't even know. How petty of him. What crossed his mind?

That could 'never' happen again, if he didn't want to reap the repercussions. He would never do it again. His title was more important and more of a value.

How silly of him.

He cleared his thoughts as that thought entered, his form went rigid and his eyes became cold and deadly as they always did. He gathered all he needed before making his way to the register and paying for the items he collected. He walked out of the store, and made his way to the truck, where his boys stood. Alert, prepared and ready for anything. As they always should be.

The two burly men quickly walked over to the man and grabbed the bags in his hands to put them into the trunk of the car. He gave them a quick nod before he stepped and entered into the back seat. Waiting for the men to resurface and enter the car. They did, and closed their doors simultaneously. Quickly enough, they were on their way.

Right out of a fairytale.
