"Youngblood say you want me, say you want me back in your life. So I am just a dead man walking tonight" I sang while playing an imaginary guitar.

"Stop it you are so embarrassing." Jake grumbled.

To irritate him more I shouted the next lines while dancing, "Cause I need it yeah I need it all of the time yeah ohh o-"

I would have continued but Jerkface muffled my voice with his hand. But that didn't stop me I continued singing in his palm.

"Why are you so annoying." He asked clearly done with me.

Right now we are in a customised shop picking up some things that were pre-ordered and looking through the store for something interesting that catch our eye and could be used in any purpose for the event.

I slapped his hand away and said, "Don't tell me when you are somewhere and an awesome song starts playing you don't sing along."

"Well I do but without that hideous weird dance and shouting on top of my lungs." He deadpanned.

I continued till the song ended while Mr Jerkface banged his head on the nearby shelf.

"The whole store is empty so why are you so embarrassed buttercup." I grinned at him and he glared at me.

"What happened babycakes?" I asked.

"Don't." He said annoyed.

"Don't what sweetcheeks?" I tried my best to hide my smile.

"You know what so now shut up." He gritted.

"Why are you so rude to me cupcake." I asked frowning.

"Nyla do you ever shut up." He said pinching between his eyebrows. I realized this is probably the first time he has ever taken my name.

"Not really sunshine." I replied turning towards the shelf as he grumbled.

"What was that honey bun didn't catch that?" I asked nonchalantly.

"I swear to God stop. Drop those cringy names." He snapped.

"What? But why sugar?" I asked acting offended.

"Don't test me." He threatened.

"Let me think about it uhmmmmm... how about no pumpkin." I smiled.

"Fuck you." He huffed.

"Oh, you wish sugarplum." I said and he stomps away.

"Where are you going baby boo?" I hollered behind him and he flipped me a bird.

The next 10 minutes we both spend quietly looking through things and occasional scowls from Mr Jerkface. Until this stack of plate like things caught my attention. I tried to reach them but my height didn't help.

"Jake can you help me out here." I called and he smirked.

"Let me think about it uhmmmmm... how about no pumpkin." He smirked and this time it was my turn to scowl.

"You know what fine I will help myself." I huffed and walked to the previous aisle where I remember seeing a high stool. I dragged it over and grinned to myself I don't need anybody's help.

As I was about to pick up the packet from the shelf Mr Jerkface called.

"What?" I snapped.

"Your lace is untied." He said pointing.
