"ridin' 'round town, they gon' feel this one" priscilla sang as she walked to rite-aid. she had her earphones plugged in and her music was blaring at the loudest volume. the stares of random pedestrians should've told her to stop singing and dancing but to be honest, she didn't give a shit.

as she approached the entrance of the drug store, she saw her reflection in the window which solicited a gag from her, she didn't know she looked THAT bad. her mom had woken her up and told her to get her lazy ass up and pick up some items on her list, priscilla being priscilla didn't bother to shower or anything, she just wore a random pair of sneakers, put her dark locks into a ponytail and departed from her house. but upon looking at her reflection, she realised that she was wearing her playboy nightgown which was a bit short for her considering she bought it two years ago.

with a shrug of her shoulders she walked in after deciding going home to change would be stupid and only get her spanked with a slipper by her mom.

she grabbed the cart closest to her and set off on her quest to buy her mom's shit. why she couldn't do it herself?, she didn't know. skating on the bar of the cart, she turned towards the toiletries aisle and picked up her mom's haemorrhoid ointment along with a plethora of other things.

as she checked out, the cashier gave her a strange look which only amplified when he scanned the haemorrhoid ointment which made priscilla only wish that her mom picked up her shit even more.

with her change in hand and a hungry stomach, she set off towards the only fast food establishment in town; taco bell (which happened to be next door to the rite-aid). she opened the double doors and was met with a line that ended right where she stood.

"oh fuck no" she exclaimed as she walked back out. at this point, her stomach decided to make itself known once again as it growled even louder than before "shut the fuck up" she said as she looked down at it.

"i hope you weren't speaking to me" a masculine voice with a humoured tone said causing her to jump. "jesus christ!" she shouted as a result of her fright. "who the fuck are you?" she asked once she had calmed down. "i'm will" a boy who looked around her age said with a smile on his pink lips. "and you are?" he asked back with the smile still on his face as he gazed at the teen

"mars" she introduced with her hand outstretched. it was times like this she was happy that she used a name that wasn't hers per say. she may have thought that he was somewhat attractive with his blonde hair and green eyes but ted bundy was attractive as well and by ted bundy, she meant zac efron in the documentary she watched the night before.

"so if you weren't shutting me the fuck up, who were you shutting the fuck up?" he inquired still with the smile on his face. "my stomach" she answered with a blush on her face "have you seen that fucking line" causing him to look towards the entrance of the building. "uh, yeah. i just got off my shift, it's pretty hectic in the kitchen" it was then that she noticed he was wearing the worker's uniform. "taco bell wouldn't hire serial killers" she thought eyeing him up and down.

"yeah, i'm not a serial killer by the way" he spoke cutting off her thoughts and caused her to look at him funnily. "you spoke out loud" he elaborated, causing clarity to wash over her features. a moment of awkward silence took control of the conversation after that. as will scratched the back of his neck, she looked towards the considerably less busy drive-thru and a light bulb moment happened. "how would you like to help me with something" she said with a devious smile on her face.

"taco bell, what would you like to order?" the voice from the ordering machine spoke when she pushed the button "i'd like a crunchwrap supreme and a baja blast please" before she averted her gaze to will and asked "would you like anything?" she wasn't going to pay for his meal but he didn't need to know that. "no thank you" he said from behind her. "that'll be all please" she said to the worker through the machine. "okay, that'll be 7 minutes"

will pushed the shopping cart which contained mars forward to the collection window of the restaurant "you know, i could've carried you and acted as a vehicle instead of us having to steal a whole ass shopping cart from rite-aid" she smiled basking in the pride that she felt for punching the cashier who had looked at her weirdly in the throat when he tried to stop her from pilfering the cart.

"nah, this is way better" she said picking the white nail polish from the edge of her nail. "debateable" he started "i would've prefered you riding me in all honesty" the words he said caused her to stop picking the paint off of her nails and look at him incredulously whilst he seemed quite proud of himself for thinking of that one.

she blushed and leaned back in the shopping cart continuing what she was doing before he said that. moments passed by and a police siren blared from behind her causing her eyes to widen and her body to freeze in panic. will, however, wasted no time in picking the petite girl up and running away from the drive-thru and to his car that he had parked in the parking lot of the establishment.

he took off and started driving until he parked near a random building when he was sure the cops had stopped chasing them. "you had a car this whole ass time" mars screamed when the shock had worn off. "yeah i did. it's not like you asked and i didn't anticipate the police involving themselves in a stolen shopping cart" he ranted "like those things go missing every day".

"yeah, i guess" she spoke "that nerdy loser probably called the cops because a half asian girl punched him in the throat" she finished off leaning her head towards him "you're half asian?" he asked, copying her action. "yeah, you couldn't tell?" she questioned. "honestly, no"

her stomach growled for the umpteenth time that day and she was going to start growling if it kept happening. "i should probably just eat at home" she said looking at the time on her phone and seeing it was nearly dinner time and she should probably start heading home. "i could drive you, it's no problem" will offered and her not being an idiot, she took him up on his offer.

"thank you for everything, even though we did get chased by the cops" she said as she took her rite-aid bag in her hand and left his car. her keys were in her hand, about to open the door when she heard him ask her to wait "could i please get your number?" he asked with a crooked smile on his face. she proceeded to use the felt pen he handed to her to write her digits on his arm. 

"goodbye again" they said simultaneously causing her to smile and go into her home. "mom, i'm back" she shouted when she walked into the kitchen and set the groceries on the counter. "honey, why does the news say that you're banned from rite-aid?" her mom shouted back. "oh shit" she thought.
