Michaels POV

"I say we go grocery shopping because we eat way to much. The trading post is expensive as all hell anyway. I'll be broke by next week." I say.

"True. Let's hit up like Safeway or some shit." Calum says.

"Let's go to Costco. We can all pitch in and buy everything in bulk. Plus. They have samples." Luke tells us.

"Uh. What's Costco?" I ask him.

The car went silent. I felt claims icy stare from the mirror.

"What's. Costco? You uncultured swine." Ashton says.

"Only the holy grail of markets. They have everything you would want and more. In mass amounts." Luke says.

"Literally so great." Calum said as he pulled into a huge parking lot for a huge building after turning off the GPS.

"So this is it?" I ask, looking at Luke.

"Awh yeah." He says with a smirk.

We hop out of the car and head in.

"Have a membership card?" The old dude in the red vest asked.

"Yeah. I do." Luke says as he pulls out his wallet and shows him a card.

"Hope you find what you need." He greets us.

"Oh. We will." Ashton says.

"Okay. Well. Everyone grab a cart. I'll be paying. My grandma is gonna spot me when we get our total. Luke you take drinks. Ashton you take chips. Michael you take sweets. Follow the boys. The aisles are near each other. I'll take actual food. Meet me at the registers in 45 minutes." Calum tells everyone.

We all take off running with each of our carts. I follow Ashton and Luke as well as I can bit before I can catch up to them they disappear. I search the aisles for candies and what not. 10 minutes later I find what I need.

I see everything and more.

I start with chocolate.
Mnm's
Snickers
Twix
Kitkats
Peanut mnm's
Butterfinger
Then move onto fruity sweets.
Skittles
Starbursts
Gummies

I decide to look down the aisle and there isn't anything else I find appealing.

I leave the sweets aisle and go down what appeared to be the alcohol aisle.

Thank god for my fake ID.

I geab vodka. The whipped cream vodka. Then some beer and mikes hard lemonade. I'm not sure if the boys like hard alcohol or beer so I grab some more of the two and decide to wait for the boys at the register.

I was 12 minutes early but I guess I could wait. I pull out my phone and text Alyssa.

Went into town for snacks and things. Be back at 3

K. Cool. Say hi to Luke for me. ;)

Ew. Do you like Luke? You're like 12 lyssa. Chill with that shit.
-send-

After that she didn't reply. I probably pissed her off.

At last the boys arrive.

"Luke. Do you have a fake ID?" I ask him.

"Yeah why?" He asks me.

"Well. I picked up alcohol but I can't use my fake ID because you're the one with the membership card. " I tell him.

"Oh fuck. Hey cal. You have a fake ID?" Luke asks Calum.

"Uh yeah. I don't use it though." He says.

"You're gonna have to use it today. Since Luke has the membership card and you're paying with a debit card you both have to be 21. So Ashton and I have to wait in like the food court or something while you guys buy." I say pointing to the food court.

"Okay. But help me transfer everything into one cart." Calum says before we leave.

I looked at the cart loads. There was no way this was only gonna fit in one cart.

"Sure buddy." I laugh.

-----in the line.

"Grandma please. I need $750. I need to buy a new tire for my car. No I know I have a spare tire. That tire was the spare tire. Thanks grandma. I love you." Calum ends the phone call and smiles.

"We got it!" He pulls out his wallet and whips out his debit card.

I look at my phone.

12:23 p.m.

We've been here for almost 3 hours? Holy shit

At 12:39 we got all 19 bags in the trunk.

"Who's hungry for lunch?" Calum asks.

"Meeeee!" Ashton sings.

"I could go for something, yeah." Luke says nicely.

"Sure." I say.

Calum decided to drive around until he found something he liked.

20 minutes later we finally found a taco bell.

"Let's go through the drive through." I suggest.

"I'm game." Calum says.

We pull into he line and wait for our car to get to the speaker.

"I'm so getting like 2 chalupas and a beefy nacho burrito with a Dr.Pepper." Ashton says. As the speaker person asks us for our order.

"I'll get a number 4 without sour cream. And for my drink I want a sprite." Calum says.

"Can I get 3 5 layered burritos with a large lemonade?" I say.

"Anything else?" She asks.

"I want one of those Mexican pizza things and 2 tacos with a large root beer." Luke says.

"Okay your total is $47.26." She says before we drive to the first window.

"This ones on me." I tell everyone and whip out a $50.
