Felix Alexander's POV

Shit. Shit. SHIT. Shit. Shit!

I should've thought before offering her the tampons. She must be thinking that what kind of a guy am I? Offering to get tampons for a girl. Who in their right mind does that? Although, I meant no offense. Girls all use sanitary products. There is no hiding that fact! But maybe I shouldn't have been too direct.

I am a darned idiot!

She is biting her lower lip... Perhaps thinking on how to punch me and where to punch me.

To break the awkwardness, I am determined to share the reason for which I did this.
"I get it though if you already have enough. I just wanted to offer. Plus they said that they are having 20% discount on them. It sounded like a good deal to me" I can only pray that my action is justified now.

"Is the deal just on these ones?" She just did not ask me this! Does this means that she is not offended?

My heart blooms at the thought and I say "Oh no, there are others too! A whole rack full of them! I didn't know what to pick. There are so many of them in so many cute colours. How do you even pick one? Do you go for the colour, your favourite one? Or is it the brand?"

Maybe I babbled too much. Jesus!

She is looking at the wide variety of products present in front of her. She suddenly asks me "Can you put those back?"

Put what back?

And I realise that she is also pointing towards the two boxes of tampons that I am still holding on to for no reason whatsoever.

"Oh..." really? As if though it is not already fucking awkward enough! 'Oh' is the best you could come up with?

Classic Felix...

I begin arranging the boxes on the rack but almost drop three or four already placed over there in my attempts to fix things.

Classic Felix x2...

Why am I so insanely clumsy?
I fall more than I walk.
I have butterfingers every time someone even remotely says my name and I believe that my fingers definitely go into paralysis when that certain someone addressing me is Sienna.

After embarrassing myself in not even being able to correctly place things, I steal glances at Sienna who is judging all the tampons.

What are you? A creep? Give her some space!

My brain is right. I quit looking at her and walk to another rack, away from her so that she can work in peace.

We are lucky to find the cash counter empty and we quickly begin placing our shopping on the conveyer. I make sure to be a gentleman and handle all the heavy weighed things, like the oil packets, lamb chops, heavy pasta packets etc.

As the bill arrives, Sienna pays for it from all the collective money that we had.

"Sir, this is yours" the smiling cashier hands me a detective pikachu key hain. Why? Oh! The tampon scheme.
I hand it over to Sienna. She is smart, unlike me and understands what it is for.

"Here..." she holds my right hand and I open my fist for her. She places the key chain on my palm.

"Oh no it's yours" I protest but she denies.

"If it is mine then it is my choice to do whatever with it and I want you to keep it" she says with a slight smile playing on the edge of her lips.
This makes me smile in return as well.
