she hid her smile as she stormed out of the room.

"What the hell were you thinking, starting a fight like that with Rae Dezel, of all people??" Sam demanded. "I–" "Oh, that's right, you weren't, because you're drunk!" she cut him off, fuming. Zeke kept his head low as they exited, fighting a sigh at her fierceness. He wished he and Rae didn't have to hide their relationship, but Sam's reaction to them just fighting was terrifying enough.

Rae was walking on the sidewalk around noon.

Zeke was only out in the first place because he'd been volunteered (against his will) by everyone else to get groceries. Something about making up for the previous night, which had made him groan, but he'd reluctantly agreed. And now the 'punishment' was looking a lot more like a reward as he spotted Rae across the street. He was so excited to see her that he didn't check the street before starting across, having to jump back to avoid being roadkill as a horn blared angrily at him. The driver flipped him off, but he didn't seem to care as he walked up to her, being more careful to avoid tons of metal speeding at him. "Hi," he greeted, slightly out of breath from nearly being killed.

"Please don't kill yourself for me" she said.

He chuckled and nodded sheepishly. "I'll try," he told her. "So what are you up to?"

"I'm not allowed with the band today from my little fight". she said.

Zeke frowned and opened his arms for a hug, after, of course, scanning the area for any sign of someone recognizing them. "Sorry," he mumbled guiltily. "I just thought that'd be the easiest way to hide it, to be honest."

"It's okay did i hurt you" she asked as she hugged him.

He smiled and rolled his eyes affectionately. Here she was, worried about him when he'd been the one to get them both in trouble. "I'm fine, don't worry. Sam was pretty angry, but she'll get over it. I think she's just frustrated 'cause Donnie hasn't realised she has a crush on him. But hey, want to come with me? I've got to shop for Wish, part of my own 'unfortunate punishment'," he explained, using air quotes and wrinkling his nose in mock disgust at the chore.

"sure " she said with a smile.

Zeke grinned happily and offered his hand, gesturing which way the store was with his head. "It shouldn't take long," he explained, swinging their hands lightly. "Do you need anything from Publix?"

She nodded. "yeah I need some things for dinner tonight on the other hand I could order Panda Express" she said jokingly.

"You know, you're right," he responded, pausing and looking at her with total sincerity. Or what looked like it, until he broke down into a smile again. "Be honest, when was the last time you had Panda Express?"

"A year ago" she said with a bashful smile.

"An entire year? Rae," he started, a look of mock disappointment on his face. "I had it a week ago… Which is totally Ian's fault, by the way. He's the one always begging for us to order it… Though to be fair, I eat it." Zeke shook his head with a laugh, then added, "If you want to come by my place later, we can eat dinner then? I don't mind making something… Or ordering Panda Express."

"No it's fine I don't want to risk being caught" she said with a small sigh.

He had to suppress a sigh himself, but gave her a subdued smile. "That's probably smart, to be honest," he agreed, bumping her arm with his elbow comfortingly. "Raincheck?" he asked hopefully, seeing the store in front of them.
