"Do you have the list?" You mumbled through your mask.

Shawn shut the driver's side door close as he slipped the elastic strings of his mask around his ears, "I thought you had it?"

You looked at him in disbelief as the two of you walked toward the front of the grocery store, "You said and I quote," you cleared your throat to lower your voice, "Of course, I have the list Y/n, I'm not irresponsible."

He rolled his eyes at the glare you sent him as he took out a clorox wipe from a ziplock bag to wipe down the handle of the shopping cart before he put his hands on it, "Tomato tomahto."

"Shawn, we're in the middle of a pandemic," you glared at him again as the two of you entered through the automatic doors, "We need specific things and can't keep running back and forth to the store."

"I––Yeah, you're right, sorry."

For a second you forgot you were wearing a mask, so you just smiled at him as a response. But when you realized that all he could see were the crinkles at the corner of your eyes, you patted his bicep, "It's alright, let's just get what we need and then leave."

Shawn nodded as he pushed the cart over toward the produce section. You picked out some lettuce, peppers, apples, and other assortments of fruits and vegetables. As you were tying a knot around a plastic bag you had put asparagus in, Shawn's voice caused your head to turn his way.

"How do you pick out an avocado?"

"How do you––What?"

Shawn stared down at the avocados, eyebrows pulled together as he scratched his chin, "Like, I know there's something about the color and feel of it, but I don't wanna touch them and then put them back."

He had a point, you thought. There was a fear factor about touching a piece of fruit––of touching anything in the grocery store––and putting it back on the shelf that could potentially put someone at risk of getting sick.

"I guess just grab a few?" You pulled down another plastic bag from the dispenser, wiggling your hands inside to fully open it and holding it out to Shawn, "We'll eat the softer one's first and just keep an eye on the rest of them."

Shawn nodded as he picked up a few avocados and placed them in the bag you held open for him. Once Shawn had put six avocados in the bag you gave him a look silently asking him if he really needed all of the avocados.

"I like avocado toast," he gave you a cheeky wink, "And it's not like we can put them back."

You let out an exasperated sigh, knowing full well he was grinning under his mask, as he pushed the cart forward, "What else do we need?"

"I would know if we had a list."

"I said I was sorry!"

You tilted your head and gave him a deliberate look that showed you didn't believe him. You heard him let out a faux disgruntled sigh as he looked at you with nothing but love in his eyes. Shawn continued to push the cart forward and you told him to jokingly get whatever he wanted since the list was long forgotten.
