Skyler's P.O.V.

I woke up the next morning ready for phase one of my plan to end the bands nevers. I got up and got dressed and headed up with Riley to the penthouse.

I really need to get my own place or stay in the penthouse. I feel bad for using up a hotel room every night.

"Hey you're just in time, Im making a shopping list." Colin said as I walked in and went straight for the coffee machine.

"Cool I'll add some stuff when you're all done" I replied taking a seat at the breakfast bar. An idea popped into my head. What was Dixon's never? Watermelon! "On second thought, give me the list and I'll go"

"Fine with me."

"Riley are you coming?" I asked.

"Nah I was just gonna stay here."

"Aww come on you're gonna make me carry all the stuff." I pouted.

"You're the one who volunteered" she reminded me.

"Ugh I hate when you're right"

"I know it doesn't happen often but when I'm right it's just that much more awesome" she gloated.

"If you really want someone to go with you I can." Stefan offered. I didn't even know he was in the room.

"No it's fine you don-"

"But I offered and I want to" he cut me off, "Besides the more time I spend with you the better chance I have of getting points" he said as he walked by.

I scoffed. In his dreams.

Colin fished up the list and handed it to me as I finished my first cup of coffee. He handed me a credit card and well a set of car keys. "Take the Suburban so you can put it all in the back."

"Thanks, which store should I go to?"

"It should be in the GPS, its not far." Colin instructed.

"Okay call me if you need anything." I waved to Riley and the guys and left with Stefan. He stuck his disguise hat on as we got in the elevator.

I don't know what he wears that it doesn't really hide his identity that much.

"I'll drive." Stefan took the keys from my hand and hopped in the drivers seat. I didn't really mind, easier for me to look around at the city anyways.

We got to the supermarket and grabbed a shopping cart. I red off the items on the list while following Stefan to the appropriate isle.

"Why did you want to do the shopping? It's not exactly most people's favorite pass time." He joked.

"I could say the same for you."

"Yeah yeah, but seriously. Or are you just that weird?"

"I am not weird. I wanted to get watermelon so I could break Dixon's never." I explained.

"His never?"

"From the game last night. 'Never have I ever eaten watermelon'." I recited.

"Yep you're definitely weird."

"No I'm not. I'm going to break all of your nevers."

Stefan just raised his eyebrows at me.

I shrugged, "I mean it's like breaking a fear except not."
