The grocery store was fairly empty today, consisting of only a few shoppers. Usually, the store was packed to the brim with shoppers on account of all the good deals it had & its close proximity to this side of town, but today, it was almost entirely empty. This was much better for you since you didn't enjoy huge crowds as well as humans in general. You were currently all alone in the beverage aisle & you couldn't be happier. Of course, that didn't last long when a small girl waddled into the aisle. You smiled. Although you hated people, you had a soft spot for children. You watched the little girl as she tried to reach a can of some drink on a shelf that was just barely out of her reach. She was dressed in a pink dress that looked like a princess costume. She even had a little pink crown on her head & pink slippers. She was adorable & desperate to reach the cans. You walked over to her, "Do you want me to get that for you?"

She looked up at you & nodded, "Yes please!" you giggled & looked at the shelf & noticed it was full of energy drinks.

You raised an eyebrow & looked back at her, "Energy drinks? You shouldn't be drinking those."

She giggled, "It's not for me! It's for my brother! He loves them," she clarified.

You laughed, "Oh, I see, & how old is your brother?"

She made a face, "Really old."

You laughed again, "Older than me?"

She narrowed her eyes at you, "How old are you?"

"I'm 20 years old."

She gasped, "You're older than him!"

You just laughed again, "I'm not surprised; I'm very old," you grabbed the drink for her & handed it to her, "Where is your brother?"

She took the can & shrugged her little shoulders, "I don't know. He said he wanted his drink so I came over here to get it."

"Well that was very nice of you. Do you want me to help you find him?" she nodded & you smiled, "Alright, let's go look for him," you waited for her to walk in front of you, but she reached up to your side & grabbed your hand. You were surprised when her little hand grabbed onto yours tightly, but you welcomed her gentle touch & held her hand back. The two of you then began walking together, hand-in-hand, in search of her brother.

"So, what's your name?" you inquired.

"I'm Princess Lorna," she said excitedly.

You chuckled, "Oh a Princess, huh? You must be a big deal."

She nodded, "Oh yes, my brother has to do whatever I ask whenever I ask."

You laughed, "Is that so? He must be good to you."

"He's the best brother in the whole world!" she giggled.

You smiled, "What's he like?"

"He's really fast like super duper fast! And he's really silly, he makes me laugh all the time. And," she leaned closer into you & whispered, "He's cute," she said, looking at you suggestively.

You laughed, "Is he now? How cute?"

"Well he's not as cute as Prince Erik but he's still cute," you just shook your head. She was probably the cutest & funniest little girl you had ever met.

"What does he look like?"

"Well he has gray hair because he's so old," you laughed, figuring she was joking, "and he wears waaaaay too much black. He always wears goggles on his head & his favorite silver jacket," he sounded like a strange fellow to you, but nonetheless, you were intrigued.
