For groceries. GO!

It was later at night when Promise got to the grocercy store. "Let's see...Chex Mix, sake, romaine lettuce and...and a bag of m&m's." he said, smiling. "The food of champions" he grabbed a hand basket and went down the first aisle

Jamie fiddled with his glasses at he stood at the very end of the first isle. He couldn't find the spice that he needed to make dinner for himself. He was getting pretty ticked off about it because he thought that his food always sucked when he didn't have ALL of the ingredients. But the problem was that he couldn't see it... because it was literally in front of his face.

Promise was busy looking at his hands. He had stumbled down this aisle, the first one. He wasn't really paying attention as he looked at the walls of cans and containers.

((Hey Clairrinette! Twilight? sorry im impatient....))

Jamie had reached up to the top shelf to grab a spice that looked similar. He dropped his basket on his foot and and winced. "Shit!" he muttered as all the contents rolled out of the basket. One of the cans rolled and hit Promise's left foot.

Promise smiled slyly and bent over to pick the can up. He twirled it around to see the label. "Well, well, well." he said, teasing, and stepped closer to Jamie. "Does someone need a little assistance?"

Jamie was on his hands and knees, grabbing the cans one by one. When he heard a voice, he looked up at the boy. HE blushed slightly and started to stutter,"N-No... I-I can g-get it."

Promise shook his head and got back down on one knee. "No, no. It's not too much trouble to help out a bit. Here." He grabbed all the cans in record speed; the benefit of working at a restaurant. "Don't be embarrassed." He said, seeing his rosy cheeks. "I for one don't mind." He hadn't meant it in a flirting matter, it just came out that way

Jamie tried to hide his blush. He wasn't used to people talking to him so much. Especially more than one sentence. "Thanks..." he said quietly and placed the cans in his basket.

((OMG! WATCH THIS! HE ACTS EXACTLY LIKE ME FOR THE FIRST 40 SECONDS! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWYt8a... ))

((LOL!!!))

"No problem, man." He said, smiling. "You okay, though? Need help with anything else?" He hadn't even started on shopping yet, but...this guy...He didn't want to leave for another aisle yet. He wanted to stay with him, which surprised even himself. He hadn't even checked Jamie out yet, he just loved this shy guy's personality.

((XD!!!!!!!! telll me watchya think!!))

Jamie got to his feet, to look the boy in the eyes. He seemed about his age and he seemed pretty nice. "I'm alright I believe," he said and fixed his glasses, pushing them into place. "I don't think I need anything else, but thank you..."

((I was like...."Woah" that's pretty epic! XD Someone's hyper, I suppose? Me too! I just ate a lot of ice cream!!! And I chased my baby cousin, and he was laughing super hard! AND OMG, I GOT THE GREATEST EASTER GIFT EVER!!!! Authentic Haribo gummy bears from Germany! I love my German heritage, man! And I love gummy bears! Only haribo's, though.))

"I could...I don't know...help you look for stuff? And, you can help me too, cuz I seriously have no idea where anything is...If you don't mind." He bit his lip a little, feeling sort of awkward.

((I WAS FREAKING LAUGHING MY BUTT OFF!!!!! I've been eating candy for the past .... half an hour!!!! RAWR!!!!! XD AWESOME! AND OMG! THOSE ARE THE FREAKINGEST BEST GUMMY BEARS IN THE WORLD!!!!! MY UNCLE GOES TO GERMANY ALL THE TIME AND HE ALWAYS BRINGS THOSE BACK! THEY ARE SO DELICIOUS!!!!__!!!))

Jamie's brown eyes twinkled a little from catching the light from the ceiling lights. "I can try," he said with a soft laugh. "But I can't find anything. I always pass it by."

((Don't they taste better when they're from Germany? Like, when they have the German on the package? Idk, they just taste BETTER! Lol!))

"Then, it sounds like you need me, huh?" He said, sort of laughing. He still had on his shirt from work; a slightly grease stained white button down and black skinny pants. The diner's logo, as well as his name, was sewn into the shirt. "What else to you need?"

((EVERYTHING TASTES BETTER IN GERMANY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >.< I'm totally insane... XD))


Jamie's cheeks flashed with pink. "I guess so... Just a spice that looks like this," he said and held up the can that he had dropped. He looked Promise up and down quickly. "Your name is Promise? That's lovely..." he said with a little smile. He had on his standard brown jacket and white shirt, with brown pants and black hightops, which totally destroyed the sophisticated look.

((Lol, true dat! You are, yes!))

He scowled, thinking about the girl who had offended him a few hours ago. "Yeah, it's Promise. What's it to you? Isn't it okay to have a girly name for a guy? I mean, kids get named fricken Leslie or Lynn or....or Marion or whatever. What's so wrong with Promise?" he got all defensive about his name sometimes. "Take it up with my mother. I didn't name myself."

((XD THANKS. I TOTALLY APPRECIATE IT! AND DUDE! I AM OBSESSED WITH A NEW SINGER! RAWR! AND SHE AINT COUNTRY XD but she is Folk!))


He giggled. "I like your name, it suits you," he said to him. "I didn't mean to make you upset." Jamie looked up at him with a small smile.

((Who is it?))

Promise blushed. "Sorry...It's just, people make fun of me all the time, you know?" He clutched the basket harder in his hands, as he grabbed something off the shelf quickly. The m&ms.

((KATE VEOGLE!!!! I used to be obsessed with her for a long time just because I thought she was pretty lol >.<))


"My name is James, but I'm referred to as Jamie... because apparently I act a lot like a girl," he said to Promise. He held his basket out in front of him like a little kid would an easter basket.

((Lol, nice! >.<))

"Which would you prefer I call you?" He asked. He smiled at him sweetly, showing teeth. He looked a little tired. He had been at school all day, only to return to the city to have to work. He couldn't WAIT to go home and rest.

((BUT SHE IS SO FREAKING COOL!!!!! I know I'm totally stupid. XD))


"Jamie..." he replied. "It's what I've gotten used to.." Jamie smiled at Promise and set the spice back on the shelf, spoting the one that he was actually searching for. "BINGO!! I FOUND YOU! NO ONE CAN ESCAPE ME!!!!" he yelled, excited. He had totally forgotten about Promise being next to him. He had random spaz moments all the time.

((You are NOT! You must be Prussian, cuz you be awesome, Kaylee!))

Promise just shook his head ans started giggling. "You're one odd guy, Jamie. But, that's a good thing. Weird, quirky guys are always the cutest." He gave him a wink and started walking again, laughing even harder.

((YES I AM! O.o AND IM PROUD OF IT!!!!!!! XD I appreciate the fact that I'm filled with awesomeness, but you're awesomer because you're actually Prussian!!!!!!))


Jamie went dead silent. He was completely embarassed. His cheeks were a deep shade of red. His brow eyes were wide and his lips seemed to be lighter. H sat down his basket and ran up behind Promise. He pounced on him. "What did you just say?" he asked.

((Lol, yes! >.< And, don't you think i'd make a good Prussia cosplay? That's my goal; to save up enough to get the costume, wig, and contacts by the nextanime convention!))

"I was kidding, man!" he said, turning around to face him. "I'm not queer, okay?" He sounded lighthearted and cheery, but it hurt to lie straight up to this guy. The way Jamie attached onto him sort of...made him feel funny.

((SWEET!!!!! YES YOU WOULD! I'm going to a convention this summer with Avi!!! AND ITS FOR FREE............. I AM SO FREAKING EXCITED!!!!__))


"I realize this," he replied with a twinkle in his eyes. He had a mischevious look as he got off his back.

((Omg, coolio@ Are you going to cosplay?

And, brb! Making a charrie!))

Was it obvious, then? Did he not have the gay guy exterior? He sort of had a lisp, but not much, and he was just as skinny as the pretty boy 'twinks' down at Twin Peaks, but...he wasn't screaming queer either. "Are...Are you?" You never knew in San Francisco...

((I HAVE NO CLUE. All I know is that she's gonna drag me out of my house to go. She said whe would beg my mom if she had too, lol!

OKAY!))


Jamie nodded slowly. He understood what Promise was going to say. "It's easy for me to tell... sorry," he offered a small apology.

Promise just shook his head ans sighed. "Don't apologize. It's alright. I have lots of gay friends..." He bit his cheek. Jamie was positively gorgeous, but he didn't want to admit it. "Do you have a boyfriend?"

Jamie blushed and shook his head. "No... the last one dumped me.... I was depressed for months..." he said in reply. His voice was so quiet and fragile. It was as if it would break if you were to drop him.

"S-Sorry..." Promise looked to their sneakers, comparing their feet size in silence. Dumped? He's an angel! How could you dump such a pretty face?

"Nah... it's okay.. I've gotten over it," he lied about the llast part. He still wasn't okay. He never felt like himself around other people, except... this guy. Promise seemed to hold future.. well.. promises.

Promise started walking again, feeling awkwardness settle over the two. He got what he needed, ending up in one of the last aisles, comparing sake brands. Gotta change the subject! he thought. "You...You old enough to drink? Ever had this stuff?"

Jamie snapped out of his half day dream. "Huh? Oh... Yeah... I just turned 21 last month.... I don't really drink all that much though..." he replied as he looked at the brand.

Promise felt stupid, then. Does he think it's bad that I drink, then? Nevertheless, he grabbed a couple of bottles of the rice wine and put it in his bag.

He looked at him with a sideways glance. "Do you work at a resturaunt?" he asked. He knew it was a stupid question to ask someone, but he didn't want to have an awkward silence again.

"Y-yeah. Fog City. The worst job I ever had, but it pays the bills." He glanced at him out of the corner of his eyes. "When i'm not commuting to fricken Santa Cruz, i'm there...God, I don't have a life..."

He giggled softly at his last comment. "You obviously do... you are living after all..." he commented with a joking layer of confidence written on his words.

Promise rolled his eyes playfully. "You're such a tease, Jamie." but, he blushed when he realized how his comment was going to be taken. "Uh, I mean...uhm..."

He blushed brightly, but only giggled. "Don't worry about it..." he said quietly.

Promise smiled too, and looked down. "Look, Jamie...I'd love to see you sometime again...maybe catch a movie or go get dinner...Can...Can I have your number?" He was already pulling out a sharpie, so he could write it on his hand. "Please?"

Jamie gave him his number, blushing and giggling like a total nut. "I-I would like that..." he said to him.

"Maybe tomorrow? Do you want mine, just for good measure?" He uncapped the sharpie again and wrote his number down on his palm, adding a little heart at the end. He smiled and gave him flirty wink.

Jamie blushed and giggled,"Sure... I'll talk you you tonight then?" He looked at Promise with his bright eyes.

((AAAAAAAAAW shit... I have to get up early tomorrow and it's like one ... O.o I can be really stupid sometimes. I gotta go! I have to sleep so I can actually play my first soccer game tomorrow!!!!! ^-^ I LOVE YOU!!!!!! Ich liebe dich mien klienes Italien! <3 I'll talk to you tomorrow!))

((Bye, Kaylee! See you tomorrow! Love you, Germany! >.<))

Tonight?!?!? Even better! He thought, excitedly. "Yeah, yeah. Cool." he tried to sound calm and collected.

Jamie gave him an adorable smile,"Talk to yoh later..." He blushed and walked off..

((we can stRt anoyher rp when I go to bed... I wont be on until then! and yes.. you are my little italy.))

Promise walked off and checked out, going home to make an extremely late dinner.

((Okay!))

((soory im off of scbool so I have to watch the kids until it is time for soccr! i have to eat too.. bht i usually dont feel lime eating afterwards lol))

((lol, nice. Im driving home from my grandparents so ill be on and off. How about...Promise goes back to his house and we can have their phone convo there?))
