I told y'all I would be updating everyday this week, weekdays only, so here ya go. No school today and I wrote this last night.
Enjoy this 1K worded flaming pile of dog shit <3
Third Person Pov:
Alex hobbled out the bathroom, leaning on James side. Even James was taller than him.
Ha, short ass.
John smiled sheepishly from the living room as James helped Alex sit down next to him.
"That hurt,"
"I know,"
"Fuck you too,"
"What happened to 'I think I love you',"
"The feeling was mutual,"
"So is my food supply, the blizzard is touching down tonight,"
"And?"
"We need food,"
"You wanna go grocery shopping,"
"Sure, but like I can barely walk,"
"Put on some shoes, I'll carry you,"
"Really? Not even my dad loved me enough to buy shoes,"
"What,"
"What," Thomas copied.
"What," James followed.
"Nothing, now come on,"
"James, Thomas, you can stay the night, I'll get you both sushi on the way back. You know where everything is," John said giving them finger guns.
Thomas nodded and James smirked.
"No fucking in my house also," John added.
"It's love making," James countered.
Alex's Pov:
He guided me over to a small closet and let me borrow a pair of sneakers cause he would have to "buy clothes for me". I'm not staying that long.
The moment they were on John picked me up and threw my over his shoulder making me screech.
"Come on," he jogged to the elevators and practically jumped inside.
"I'm still here," I reminded him I wasnt luggage.
"I know," he laughed waiting for the doors to close, "also, Peggy and Maria are coming back tonight. They just declared it. So basically for the 4 of them it couples night but then there is us,"
"We can be lonely together,"
"Yep,"
"Can you put me down now?"
"No can do, we are also taking my car that's in the garage cause I'm not carrying bags on the bus,"
"Fair,"
Third Person Pov:
The two reached the car and arrived at the supermarket extremely slow. Although Manhattan is known as the city that never sleeps no one is gonna take a break for a blizzard.
On the other hand, people have enough common sense to know this one was gonna be bad.
John and Alex were at Stop&Shop cause why the fuck not.
John got a cart and Alex followed his actions, unsure of what to do.
"Come on, let's get chips and stuff,"
"What kind,"
Somehow Alex ended up in the cart amazed by the delicacies that surrounded him, filling up his senses. They went around the store buying and assortment of items.
John claimed, "Alex can get whatever he wants,"
But my god there were so many choices it was food paradise.
By the time John had placed donuts, Doritos, potato chips, popcorn, 4 different sodas, Cheez-its, and cookies in the cart Alex was still having a mid life crisis chosing what to get.
In the end he settled upon Wheat Thins.
On the other hand, in addition to John's previously stated snacks he bought the sushi, bacon, milk, and an assortment of cereals.
"You don't get anything else?" Alex asked genuinely curious on what John consumed.
"Nope,"
"This is all processed garbage, take me to the real food,"
"What is real food?"
"I'm coming out the cart," Alex did struggle slightly removing himself from the cart but eventually got out.
"Take me to the chicken, we have some food to cook,"
"Oof okay I guess,"
"Put back the chips except the popcorn, get a smaller pack of donuts, and a bigger pack of cookies, and put away the Cheez-Its," Alex said planning things out in his head.
"On it chef," John saluted making Alex's heart flutter.
Alex went around a bit looking, he found a brand with supposedly decent chicken breasts, 2 packages of salmon, potatoes, a giant bag of jasmine rice, and more vegetables and fruits.
Those being green beans, lettuce, carrots, tomatoes, onions, strawberries, corn, sweet peppers, and celery.
That coming with 4 different salad dressings: Ranch, Thousand Islands, French, and Italian.
When John returned he was almost shocked.
"Oh my god,"
"I'm sorry, is this too much for you to pay for? I'll put it bac-"
"No no no, this is perfect," John smiled warmly.
"Now, let's look for some seasoning and a lot of oil,"
The two returned with almost a dozen bags filled with Alex's definition of food.
"I didn't even buy ramen," John realized.
"Congrats?"
John and Alex bust through the apartment door to see Peggy, Maria, Thomas, and James all spread out on the giant couch.
"It's about time, gimme my Cheez-Its," Peggy whined as the two placed the bags on the counter.
"I didn't get you any," John said simply.
The group gasped.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean we didn't buy them,"
While the group debated on the snack Alex started thawing out the chicken breasts and salmon.
"Baked chicken or grilled chicken," Alex debated eventually deciding to "grill" it.
The salmon would be baked with the potatoes and the vegetables would either be made into a salad or boiled and then sauteed in butter.
In the mean time Alex cut up some carrots, celery, and sweet peppers for the group. In little dishes he filled with the salad dressing were placed next to the gaint plate.
"Guys!" Alex yelled over them.
The room became silent and everyone turned to Alex.
"We have snacks,"
Peggy walked forward, "what is this," he picked up a green sweet pepper.
"Food that's good for you,"
"Never heard of such a thing," she replied dipping it in Thousand Islands dressing and biting into it.
The rest of the group joined her, eating the gOoD fOOd as Alex cooked.
"This is fucking nasty," Thomas cringed as he continued to dip his celery into Ranch dressing.
"They're also cookies in one of these bags," Alex said.
The group pounced before Alex could stop them.
"Nope!" Alex yelped, "it's for dessert, oh, and John, I hope you have hot chocolate mix and a shit ton marshmallows," Alex smiled confidently seasoning the chicken.
"Guys," John said, amazed by Alex's swift movement, "when was the last time we actually ate real food?"
