"You said you were going to take the bus, yes? You cannot 'ride back with me' even if you had a helmet, if I do not bring the bike out there first," he grunted out, "So get your a** moving already."

Chel had a blank expression for a moment, trying to do all the mental math.
"Ah!" It clicked. "Okay. S'Toji Korean Grill House." She figured he could take the name as enough for directions. "I dunno the address 'cause I always just know it from like ... memory y'know?" She didn't use street signs, but landmarks and locations. "I can google it though just a sec..."
She pulled out her phone to do just that.

"I got it," he stated, continuing on down the stairs now. Shun had his own phone out so that he could get some directions as to how to reach the place.
The bike shop was a bit out of the way.
"The bike shop is about three blocks west of the restaurant. Same street."

Chel pocketed her phone again.
"Oh. 'As bomb." And one hell of a coincidence. Chel wouldn't use the directions though (which direction was west??)- she'd just ask around in the vicinity. Surely some people could point her in the right direction and she didn't mind talking to people. "See y'down there."
She gave a little half salute and then began walking the handful of blocks to the bus stop. When Shun drove by she definitely gave a fullbody wave.
---
After getting a little lost and some not-so-friendly directions from a local dickbag, Chel found the bike shop. Instead of waiting for Shun outside, she went inside to immediately soak up all the badass s**t that was inside.

Shun completely ignored the wave was he went on his way. He was focusing on driving. He really did not understand what Chel's obsession with the bike was exactly. While his machine had the capacity to go really ******** fast, it was not like he could utilize that at all in a town, where going at high speeds was a really stupid thing to do.
He went ahead and found a good parking spot once he was downtown, then just waited outside of the shop. He had no reason to actually go inside this time around, and the shopkeepers could handle whatever questions Chel had.

It was only when Chel realized she had no ******** clue where to start that she became overwhelmed. She didn't know the first thing about buying a helmet.
She poked her head out the shop door, making the little bells at the top jingle again. "Shuuun come help me. Payment for dinner." Maybe if she offered it to him as a deal it wouldn't seem like such a hardship.

A sigh escaped him, "You know there is someone in the shop who could help you with that."
Shaking his head, he begrudgingly went on in.
"Pick one you like and try it on."

"Yeah but I trust you more than them," she said stubbornly, pacing over to the helmets with him. Despite there being a plethora of colorful ones that seemed much more "Chel" she actually went for a very plain looking black one. Probably because it was cheapest.
She put it on her head and looked at Shun. "How's this?"

"Only you can answer that. Adjust it. Does it feel snug but not too tight? It should not wobble on your head," he stated, reaching up to try and wiggle the helmet.

Chel sort of wobbled back and forth as he was wiggling. Luckily the helmet seemed to be relatively in tact. It was just the person underneath who was swayed.
"Yeah that feels pretty good. S'this a good helmet? Or s'there a better one or somethin'?" Chel knew nothing.

Shun let his hand dropped back to his side, "They all serve their purpose. The main thing is finding one that fits properly. It seems secure on your head. If it feels fine, you can go ahead and purchase it."

Chel gave Shun's chest a tiny headbutt with the helmet and then she snickered after. "Yes sir, police chief, sir."
She took off the helmet and wandered over to the counter. A short conversation later and Chel returned with the helmet and a pair of simple riding gloves. She gestured Shun follow out of the store, giving a wave to the cashier shortly after. "Here," she said once they were back outside on the sidewalk. It took a moment of digging but she produced the gloves from the plastic bag and handed them to Shun.
"The barbecue place is down this way, yeah?"

"I am not the chief," Shun stated flatly. Shaking his head, he started on out the door, "Yes. To the east of here."
Once he was given the gloves, he just paused, blinking down at them. He wasn't even sure if those would fit his hands. He passed them back to Chel.

Chel pushed them back. She knew the size of Shun's hands- they would fit.

It took a little while to get seated since the restaurant was full due to the special deal today, but they did eventually find themselves buried towards the back with a grill and other cooking instruments between them.
"Aw man. m'excited now. Motorcycle trip an' free food. Feels like I haven't had a good day like today in a while."

Once they were seated, Shun took a drink of some water, then stared at Chel, "Why are you so obsessed over riding? It is not that big of a deal, especially when you are stuck being on these streets."
She was setting herself up for some disappointment there.
