"So I'm going to buy my mom some clothes" Daniel announced to you as you leaned on your front door. The two of you were outside, he was just getting home when you saw him while you were tossing out the garbage. "So... would you like to come to the mall with me tomorrow?"

"Sure dawg" You said 'dawg' ironically now, it's just a thing. Don't question it.

"Really? I thought for sure you'd say no. I mean, you don't seem to like shopping" Daniel exclaims in a surprised notion.

"I don't" You shrugged.

"Than why do you want to come?" Daniel asks you.

"Because you invited me?" You replied with a finger pointing to your face. Daniel only sighs with a grin as he nods.

"Alright, I can't wait for tomorrow than Y/N"

His cheeks were so damn chubby.

You turned your head the other way to resist the urge to squish his chubby cheeks.

*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧TOMORROW *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

You looked at a mannequin's wig, a little bit away from Daniel as he tried asking the store clerk to help him into finding some clothing for his mom. You quickly tried straightening out the (favorite color) frilly, butterfly sleeved midi sundress you were wearing when it got stuck in your booty crack.

The dress was very out of character for you, even Daniel questioned it when you met up with him.

Your simple answer was, "My dad packed it for me and I'm out of clean clothes."

But you told Daniel to warn you if you both saw anybody you knew, because you had the biggest itching feeling that they'd never let you live this down.

'Hm... I like the color of this wig.' You thought as you examined it more, completely ignoring the salespeople and customer's odd stares towards you.

So you were only minding your own business until you caught a giggle from where Daniel was standing.

"Can I help you?" The uniformed store clerk asks.

"Well... I need some clothes" Chubby Daniel says, twiddling with his thumbs as he stares up at the women in a very 'small' fashion.

"But this is the lady's section, and you possibly can't have a girlfriend..." The girl covers her mouth as her friend giggled behind her.

"Oh is it for your mom? Our clothes is a bit expensive through, would that be ok?"

"Hey Daniel." You popped up behind him, arms swinging around his shoulder as you looked up at the two store clerks. "Whatcha doin'?"

"I-Oh Y/N, I'm just asking for some help finding a dress for my mom."

You crossed your arms. "These bitches are helping you? Ain't seem like it." You smiled menacingly at the two clerks.

"W-What?!" One of the shrieked, unprofessional like. Everybody in the store was now staring and watching what the commotion was all about. Your eyes immediately snapped to her's, you smiled at you straightened your back.

They immediately noticed the significant height difference between you and the employees, this quickly made them intimidated. It also didn't help that you were the splitting image of any Milani Fashion Week Runway Model.

"I-" One of the girl's piped up but the other clerk immediately shuts her up with a hand flying to her mouth.

"We apologize madam for our rude behavior!" The woman bowed her head, grabbing her friends too as she was afraid that you might do something to them.

Your aura was completely intimidating, exactly like a mafia member with a large six foot build and a complete full body tattoo. She can't describe it, but she felt like prey to a lion that was gonna devour her.

Haha get it? Mountain Lion? Yeah, it's overused, I'll shut up now.

The women opened their mouths, however nothing came out but jabber. You only stared them down with a bored look as they shrunk back, the two looked at each other nervously before bowing their heads. "We sincerely apologize for our rude behavior, we didn't mean any harm with our actions"

"Haha." You only laughed as the girls looked up to you in confusion. "You sure are a smart one." You looked at the girl who was most scared of you.

Daniel watches your every move as you only smiled sharply at her. Leaning in towards her, you whispered something only audible to Daniel and the two clerks.

"How'd you know... That I was this close to bashing in your skulls?"

And with that, they completely froze at your threatening words as Daniel stiffens.

"Let's go Y/N!" Daniel grabs your wrist as he turned tail and leave.

"Huh? Why, I was just getting to the juicy part." You thought as you crossed your arms as you were forced towards the exit.

You stuck your tongue out with a blank expression, thinking of giving one last farewell as you turned you head around.

"Also your store's clothes are trash, maybe you two should work at Sears next time, they might even have uniforms there that would fit you."

With that last comment, you basically disappeared out the store with Daniel. Leaving many customers in disbelief of what happened.

The two ladies were silent, mouths dropped.

"Fuck." One of the girls mutters as she drops to her knees as the other held onto their uniform's scarf, gripping it tightly as she started to tear up. Through she didn't know what Sears was, it was clearly obvious it was an insult.

*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧ LATER *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

You had just finished shopping for Daniel's mom, and both of you were gonna catch a bus ride to his mom's place which seemed pretty far away.

You looked at your ticket, your seat on the bus was almost next to Daniel's, but an aisle would be between you two. You walked behind Daniel as he casually holds his ticket and talks to the girl who would sit next to him.

"E-Excuse me... my seat is next to yours" You heard him say.

"U-Uh okay!" She says before shuffling all her stuff over.

Daniel clearly saw the expression she made, signifying how much she didn't want Daniel to sit next to her at all.

You didn't noticed but you were getting jittery, you don't get to ride the bus too much so you were excited.

You two just sat down in your seat.

You glanced at him, sitting in his seat uncomfortably for some reason. You could see her trying to distance herself from him as far as possible, leaning towards the windows and such.

For some reason your mind trails back to how Daniel's other form gets treated, girls would immediately swarm him like a bunch of bees. Throwing themselves towards him with little to no effort at all.

Hm... this reminds you of a new word you learned the other day.

Lookism.

"Oh, my seat is next to yours" Some guy smiles down at you, holding a ticket. He was a teenager, maybe in middle school as you could see his friends behind him gasping at him.

"Lucky!"
"You get to sit next to a cutie!"

The guy only shrugged his friends off as he continued looking at you with a nervous grin and a blush.

You glanced at him before turning your head "Hey lady" You called out to the girl that Daniel sat by. She immediately looked up, her moth gaping open as she saw how beautiful you were.

"Uh.. yes?" She stutters a bit 'She's so pretty...'

"Can we change seats, I want to sit next to my friend" You said as you got up, she quickly tilts her head in confusion.

Everyone did as they looked at Daniel. She looks back at you and points at him "Wait? He's your... friend?"

"Nah, I was just lying to see your reaction." You said dryly, with no hint of sarcasm because you were shit at sarcastic comments.

"That so?" She chuckles.

"No I'm fucking with you, move." You said, completely confusing the woman.

"I- Well, goodness your language!" She scolds you as she shuffled her stuff and gets up. You two changed seats as the middle school kid wonders what he did to upset you.

'Did I do something wrong? Am I that ugly to make her sit with that pig instead of me?' He deadpans as his friends patted him on the shoulder.

"Sorry buddy"
"Good luck next time lol"

You crossed your legs and arms as Daniel only gives you a warm smile.

"Why did you do that Y/N? She didn't do anything" Daniel asks you as you only sat still.

"Sure"

*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

"This is the street I would always walk home" Daniel points out "That's also where the gazebo is, that's where all the kids would usually smoke"

"They smoked under a gazebo?" You held in a laugh "Those rich people tents?"

"Haha... yep" Daniel laughs along with you, noticing how dumb that sounded now you've mentioned it.

Daniel looks at the old streets, staring down at the cracked and worn pavement. 'I guess it's only been two months so it's not too different. But we gotta hurry, being here makes me nervous, I don't want to let Y/N to be troubled and keep helping me again and again...'

He glances at your tall form, long legs as your beautiful face was looking upwards as you walked with a confident stride. You were also picking your nose with your pinky finger but for some reason- Daniel ignored it. 'Y/N... she's been protecting me all day...' Daniel clenches his chubby little fists 'I want to make her stop worrying about me, I want to show her I'm not a weak, overly jealous guy anymore. I've changed!'

"Daniel... Park?" A voice pops behind the two of you, you turned your head.

"How are things now for you?" He smiles widely as he rubs his hands together. He walks up to you two as he pats Daniel on the head like a dog.

"And who's this?" The guy asks as he looks at you, a large smile on his face.

"Oh that's Y/N" Daniel sighs in relief, at least it wasn't Logan or his gang.

"..." You waved at him silently as you crossed your arms and looked back at Daniel "We should get going"

"Your korean is very fluent" He praises with a smile, quickly hanging the convo "You're really cute too, how did our little Daniel ever become friends with someone like you?"

You narrowed your eyes once more, a frown evident on your lips.

*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

You sniffed the air under the gazebo, the stench of cigarettes engrained into the area as it filled your nostrils 'Those kids really do smoke under here... why a fucking gazebo of all places through?'

"When you transferred, Logan was super pissed. Other innocent kids were careful around him lol" The guy says as he seemed engrossed with his phone.

"Ah!" Daniel lets out a noise.

"It was so tough that you transferred huh? Everyone was shocked, you just up and left during second semester"

"Oh... uh..." Daniel looks at the guy with a single thought in his head. 'Have I ever, talked to this guy before?'

'Woah this gazebo is actually super comfy' You laid back, your eyes slowly feeling heavy after a long day shopping and taking the hour bus trip "I kinda like it, this would be a nice place to smoke actually'

"Things seemed to got better when you left through, I'm shocked that you have such a cute girl following you around" He states.

'This guy is being quite friendly... but he's keeping us here' Daniel thinks.

"Yeah... well, we gotta run" Daniel says out loud as he taps your body.

"zzzzzzzzzzz" You snored with an unreasonable sound that can mimic the noise of bubble bees.

'Y-Y/N's asleep?!' Daniel thinks in his head.

"That's good that she fell asleep, I didn't want her to witness what's gonna happen next" The guy said in an ominous voice.

"???" Daniel said, which didn't sound like a sound just him repeating the word 'question mark' three times.

"How the hell are you? Why'd you transferred? You didn't have permission from the boss ya know that?" The skinny wannabe kid smirked.

"Lol I wondered why that ass called us here, it was because of piggy! Wait, no I got it, you're so mad at the old pikachu that you called us to kick his ass!" The real Bruce Lee man said.

'Y-Y/N! She's my only option, I need to wake her up—' Daniel stopped himself in the middle of his thoughts. He realized how bad that sounds in the whole picture, he was making a girl fight for him, to protect him from his bullies. After an entire day of her doing nothing but kindly sheltering him from this cruel and horrid world.

The guys started to grab all of Daniel's stuff, taking the envelope full of money and jokingly putting it in their own pockets. The girl finally noticed the bag of clothes next to your sleeping body on the gazebo.

"Piggy, why are these clothes so tacky?" She asks as she picks up the bag whilst taking a peak inside.

The guys turned over to the girl as they noticed a sleeping body on the gazebo wearing a dress.

"Who's that?" One of the guys points out as the girl shrugs.

"Dunno, probs some girl from a neighboring school, I don't know why the hell she's sleeping on OUR gazebo tho"

"She's cute so let her sleep there lol" The guys simply shrugged you off.
"Let's wake her up later and let her hang out with us"
"Yeah we're so nice"

"Hmph, she doesn't look that special" The girl blushes as she pulls a strand of hair behind her ear.

They continued on with their ridicule as one of the guys picked up Daniel's wallet, opening it up as he smirks.

"Only five bucks? He's a bigger lol, let's use it to play games"

'That's the money mom gave me! My lucky money! I always keep it in my wallet' Daniel starts to freak out in his head, the face of his smiling mom floats in his head as he looks down to the floor.

"Hey... I gave you the envelope so please give back my wallet..." Daniel starts to shake slightly.

The skinny guy digs his hand into Daniel's neck before Daniel finally grabs his's.

Holding onto it as he pulls the guy on the ground with one fellow swoop, with his unimaginable strength Daniel speaks with the outmost calmness.

"At least give me back my money"

The guy grunts as his body was being held down by his arm being twisted back. Daniel didn't seem to be noticing what he's doing, only in a fog of rage as he pulls the guy's arm back further, triggering a scream from him.

"Hey you ass! Let go!" Bruce Lee shouts as he comes charging in, pulling back his leg as he aims towards Daniel's head.

In that split second, Daniel saw Zack's fist and kick, remembering the technique Y/N used to stop it. Memories of them fighting along with Vasco's unique style floats in his mind as he felt how watching fights and participating in some of his own had really trained his eye.

Daniel quickly blocks the kick, cushioning it as he holds onto his leg as well.

'M-My golden foot!' Bruce guy gasps as Daniel flips in to the ground, roughly making Bruce Lee crash, face first into the dirt.

"Sorry" Daniel says with little to no remorse. Feeling a darkness inside him resurface a bit.

"I found my runaway pikachu" The man laughs with an evil in his voice, cigarette hanging from his bottom lip as a newly opened box in his hand.
