x x xNez laughed nervously when Frey told her that she didn't need to apologize for everything, she was about to say sorry again but bit her lip and smiled instead. Her face was still tinged with a bit a crimson from when she bumped into him, Frey had grabbed onto her shoulders gently to prevent her from falling, she felt the warmth of his palms on her bare shoulders...it was...comforting... Nez heard him ask where to first as she snapped out of her thoughts. "U-Uhm...well..." She thought as she watched Frey unlock his car and open the drivers door. He looked back at her. His teal eyes are so...captivating... She quickly became flustered and glanced to the side avoiding his gaze. "We can go to the store and beat the crowd...then we can stop by my place to get my things...Does that sound okay?" She asked while slowly making her way to the passenger side door. Nez glanced at him once more before opening the car door and sitting down on the seat. This car looked so high-tech...it didn't even look like a normal car from the inside.. She looked around curiously with wide eyes as she rested her hand on the center console and looked over at Frey. Was he some sort of super mechanic too? But then that doesn't explain the fact that he's cooped up in his room all day... Her curiosity was slowly getting the best of her and before she could stop herself, she asked the question that's been on her mind for the longest time. "What exactly is you job anyway?" She was mortified with the words that slipped out of her mouth but it was too late to take them back now, all she could do was keep her eye contact with him like a deer caught in headlights. She gulped and closed her eyes tight. "That...was awfully rude of me...please forget I asked...I-I'm just your employee anyway so..." Her voice became quieter and quieter as she finished her sentence, she then turned around and looked forward, her right hand grabbed a fist full of the fringes on her thigh high socks, giving it a nervous death grip. She hoped that they'd get to the store more sooner than later.

With Nez's answer, Frey gave a small nod, a light smile on his face as the two entered the car."Yeah, that'll be good." he spoke, turning the key into the car's engine and hitting a button on the roof by the rear view mirror to open up the garage. As the car started up, so did all the electronics that gave the interior of a car a light glow, as the main center console awoke. Frey couldn't help a small smile as he watched it, he was honestly pretty proud of what him and John had done to the car. Frey was about to say something when Nez spoke, asking him what exactly it was that he did, which made him pause for a moment. A second later, Nez looked like she'd just been caught out after curfew as she stuttered that he didn't have to answer.
"I work with computers and machines, but I'm guessing you already figured that much out." Frey chuckled lightly, figuring that answer was the best he could really give her at the moment. The organization liked to keep things on a need to know basis when it came to non-members. A light blush came to his face as he realized that Nez was nervously gripping at her high socks. Why was she so adorable?! Turning his attention onto the center console, Frey tapped a button before a keyboard displayed on the screen asking for a location. "Mind putting your address in?"he asked giving his neck a light rub in an attempt to recollect himself.
x x xNez watched as the car came to life, lights shined and everything looked all the more futuristic. Whoa... For a second she felt oh so very small...all she's ever done was graduate high school, get a small apartment and attend a few short years of college before inevitably dropping out due to insufficient funds...like always. She's never really accomplished anything note worthy, nothing to make anyone proud... but Frey...he is so different from what she is, he is chock-full of talents that Nez could only dream of having. What am I doing...I'm way out of his league...he's a genius and I'm....I'm a girl who just got kicked out of her home a second time... Her mood darkened ever so slightly but she still managed to smile and look impressed with the car, she really was in awe. She simply nodded at Freys reply, relieved that he didn't take any offense with such a rude question. She still felt just a bit confused with how he answered though...the pause he took before answering her was a tad odd, it looked like he went stiff for just a moment. Nez brushed it off as nothing and smiled. "Yeah...heh...wish I was that good with technology like this..." She motioned around her with her delicate hands and then they dropped onto her lap with a thud against her bare thighs. "You're honestly...amazing Frey..." She added shyly and rubbed the part of her thigh where she hit. She then saw Frey push on a button and a keyboard with a screen appeared before her eyes. She blinked a couple times in wonder and poked it. It made a soft sound and she smiled. She nodded at Frey's request and began to tap in the address to the store. The soft sounds continued, making her giggle slightly, she's never worked with something so high-tech, she felt honored to be allowed to touch something of this caliber. When she finished and pressed on something that looked like an enter key, she glanced over at Frey to let him know she was done. Nez noticed that his face looked a bit red. With a tilt of her head and a worried look on her face she leaned in a bit closer to him. "A-Are you feeling alright Frey?" Nez asked with genuine worry.

As Nez stated that she thought he was amazing, Frey's face reddened even more. Sure lots of people recognized his talent, but those had always just been teachers and co-workers and stuff.... it was just different when Nez said it. It felt more...special. His attempt to compose himself fell flat as Nez leaned in a bit asking if he felt all right, probably due to the redness in his face. Hearing the bit of worry in her voice, Frey quickly looked at her, small sheepish smile on his face"Y-yeah, just thinking." he chuckled lightly, not wanting Nez to worry. Frig, why am I so bad at socializing? John makes it seem so easy. Frey thought to himself as he turned his attention back onto the console which now held the address of Nez's former apartment. Hitting the green button in the lower right part of the screen, the screen changed to a map, a small marker on the destination, another mark to show their current location, and a green line running between the two points, looking similar to a gps. Frey sat back in his chair a bit as the car rolled out of the workshop and made it's way onto the street.
Frey's attention shifted back over to Nez, a small awkward smile on his face "Feel free to use the car whenever by the way. It's pretty easy to use the auto-driver." Frey stated. The car drove itself, unless the driver actually wanted to steer. It was initially John's idea, he'd been worried about Frey crashing or getting lost to the point that even a gps couldn't help him. When John told him about the plan, Frey was excited by the idea, thus the two set to work, eventually getting the car to where it is now.
x x xHer curiosity wanted to ask him what he was thinking about but she resisted the urge, instead she leaned back again into her seat and watched the console as it turned into a map. She was about to express her amazement when suddenly the car started to move...by itself. She looked around quickly and stopped at Frey. He wasn't driving, his hands weren't even on the steering wheel! Frey told her that she was free to use the car whenever she wanted and she just stared at him, dumbfounded. "O-Oh I could never...I mean...with my luck I'd still crash even if it was on auto-pilot" She made fun a herself and let out an awkward chuckle. The car continued it's route to the store, the ride was so smooth, all the twists and turns of the road were executed perfectly. She was in awe.
...
The car parallel parked flawlessly in front of the grocery market, it made a little beep and a robotic voice spoke saying. 'You have arrived at your destination.' Nez giggled, she was amazed at what this car could do. And with that, she opened the door and stepped out of the vehicle. As the door closed with ease, she looked through the window to Frey and smiled. "C'mon Frey, the groceries won't buy themselves~" She gave him a playful wink and began to slowly walk towards the entrance of the store. Her dress softly flowing in the wind as she fixed her thigh socks by pulling them up to where they needed to be. Let's see....I may not be good with technology but I could maybe impress him with my knowledge in food and cooking....maybe...

Frey let out a small chuckle as Nez stated that she would probably crash it, even with the auto-pilot going. "Nah, it'll be fine. Besides, this car is incredibly durable."Frey smiled giving the car door a light tap with his knuckles as he looked at Nez. She was so sweet, it felt like he already made a friendship with her, finding it easier to talk to her than with most people.
As the car parked and informed it's passengers of their arrival, Frey watched Nez step out, a cheerful smile on her face as she stated that the groceries won't buy themselves. Frey let out a small chuckle as he turned and stepped out, a small beep going off informing Frey he forgot to take out the keys yet again. Quickly turning and taking out the keys before shutting the door, Frey looked over at Nez, a small click sounding as the car locked."Right, hope you know what you're doing."he smiled warmly"Cause I might be good with computers and stuff, but cooking..... not so much." he admitted with a light chuckle. He'd tied to learn how to cook before but always ended up losing the recipe, getting distracted, or completely forgetting he was making something which was the cause of a couple small fires. Even with John's help, it was difficult to remember everything and make sure that the meal was completed with at least some edibility.
Slipping the keys into his pocket, Frey opened the door, letting Nez enter before stepping inside. He let out a small breath of relief seeing that there weren't many people moving about the store. Hope she has some kind of idea what we need back at the house.Frey thought to himself looking at all the aisles packed with goods, making sure he stayed somewhat close to Nez so they didn't lose one another.
x x xNez giggled when Frey admitted his lack of expertise in the kitchen as he walked to her and they entered the building. Nez was so distracted with Frey's smile that she nearly forgot to grab a shopping cart, she walked up to a group of them and pulled one away from the others. Her small hands took hold of the handle as the two continued further into the store. Nez noticed that Frey was walking so close to her, their arms almost touching that she could feel the soft fabric of his jackets sleeve. Her cheeks flushed into a light pink so she tilted her head down a bit and her bangs covered her face safely. He is the nicest man I've ever met, not to mention... She glanced at him between her bangs, he was still smiling... very handsome...I can't help but feel a little nervous... Nez tucked her hair behind her ear nervously and quietly cleared her throat. "A-Alright so...we should start over here." They began their expedition throughout the grocery shop, twisting and turning through the aisles. Getting the occasional 'Welcome to _insert store name here_' and 'Do you need help finding anything', Nez would only give them a smile and shake her head with a friendly "No thank you.". She's been here many times and already knows this store like the back of her hand. She also knows that the shopping carts in this particular store were incredibly big for a girl her size, which sort of looks comical when people see her struggling to push a cart when it's filled.
"Every kitchen needs to have a starter pack of necessary foods, something your kitchen was lacking." Nez gave Frey a quirky smirk as they arrived to the freezers. She remembered that there were two gallons of a certain drink in Frey's fridge, one of which was empty, the other one had a couple ounces left but it was long expired. So she found that specific drink in one of the freezers and placed it in the cart. She glanced at Frey. "I'm assuming this is your favorite drink, right?" She said with a smile, quite proud of herself for remembering. They then proceeded to get some other important things like eggs, milk, ham, cheese, etc... "Once we get done with the essentials, then we can work our way to ingredients for any special dishes you like" Nez spoke with excited enthusiasm, she loved food and preparing delicious things, making people smile.
Her parents never really liked her dreams of becoming a chef, they actually actively frowned upon it whenever she brought it up. They would say 'No daughter of mine is going to slave away in a kitchen, she's going to become a lawyer like her mother, or an engineer like her father.' She was never good enough, and whenever she tried her best to make something delicious for her parents they would eat it and say 'If you can put all that energy you have for cooking in something more important then you would be much more better off instead of wasting your time.'

As Nez walked off, Frey turned his attention to see where she was heading, the girl returning a mere moment later with a shopping cart that looked a bit to big for her smaller stature. He was about to tell her to let him push the cart when she started walking off, saying that they should start in a certain area. As the two walked around, a few of the workers had asked them the standard questions or gave a greeting, and Frey couldn't help but to feel better when Nez handled the people situation. For most people, responding to these sorts of things was simple, but with Frey, it was a struggle. He was always either zoned out or just plain unsure of how to answer.
Making their way into the freezer aisle, Frey couldn't help but to laugh as Nez shot him a quirky smirk teasing him about the lack of food in the house."Fair enough. So what comes in this starter pack?" he chuckled, watching as Nez left the cart to open one of the freezer doors, apparently having found something. Stepping over to the cart, Frey rested an arm on the handle, wanting to be of at least some kind of help on their trip, pushing the cart seemed like the best thing for him to manage. As Nez returned to the cart, a happy smile on her face as she asked if that was his favorite drink, Frey looked at what she had placed in the cart and smiled, letting out a small chuckle "Yeah, how'd you know?" he asked half teasing half actually curious. Green tea had always been his favorite drink, even when he was a kid.
Pushing the cart, Frey couldn't help but to feel happy as him and Nez made their way though the store, Nez clearly enjoying herself. As Nez mentioned any special dishes he liked, Frey had to think for a moment giving a small shrug of defeat after a moment, though a smirk on his face "Eh, I'm not really that picky. I like ravioli's I guess." he spoke with a small sheepish chuckle. "What about you?" he asked curiously, his gaze drifting a bit onto the passing shelves.

(Occ: Idk if you wanted me to start the 'action' lol but I added something small at the end to get things going, you could lead from there if you want 3nodding I hope you don't mind)
x x xShe smiled and shrugged at Frey's comment. "What can I say...I'm a very observant girl." She replied with a lopsided smile as she continued forward. "Most of the time my 'observation skills' get me in trouble though...but in this case, it got you your favorite drink. heh..." She chuckled sheepishly. There's a thin line between observation and curiosity, she didn't want to get into it at this time but her history in that sort used to put her in plenty of dangerous situations. Knowing his favorite drink is harmless though... He probably thinks I'm weird for saying that nonetheless...frick... She mentally scolded herself as they walked, Frey got a hold of the cart and was pushing it now. She's never shopped with anyone before so getting help like this felt weird but also very nice, now she won't be the laughing stock of the store anymore. Nez smiled and looked up at him when he mentioned raviolis, one of her favorite dishes as well. Although pasta was not very good for you, it was one of her guilty pleasures. As he glanced over to the passing shelves, she couldn't help but giggle. "We have more in common than I thought...hmm... let's get lasagna and linguine too" Her excitement clearly showed and continued to show when they arrived to the pasta aisle. They walked side-by-side making small talk, smiling and laughing, as they passed two elderly ladies, it looked like they were friends who happened to run into each other here, they were talking about 'old times' until they noticed Frey and Scarlet.
Nez was now looking for the best price and brand of pasta to buy as the two elderly women stared at them both from head to toe, they both giggled. One of them elbowed the other and whispered, "Young love", quiete loudly infact. Nez was bent over looking at the pasta boxes and froze. A deep shade of red covering her cheeks. Oh my god....kill me now... Nez found what she was looking for but was too mortified to look at Frey so she turned around, and placed the boxes into the cart, all while having her sight firmly focused on the white tiles of the store. "A-alright! Sowe'vegottopickupafewmorethingsandw-we'llbedone." She said it so quickly that her sentence sounded like one big word. And with that she fast walked towards the end of the aisle and away from those grandmas, Nez was so preoccupied with the floor that she walked right into something so hard, it made her fall flat on her bum. She thought it was one of those cement columns but when she looked up she saw a bulky guy in a suit a shades. A very strange thing to see in such a casual grocery market. The man looked like he was glaring at her through his shades, or maybe he just had a mean face. "I-I'm so s-sorry sir...Are you okay?" It seemed kind of silly asking that question since she's probably the one that got hurt when bumping into him, she was on the floor after all, he on the other hand seemed completely unfazed. The man just stood there, stared and said nothing but a "Tck..."and walked off. Nez's heart dropped as goosebumps formed on her skin What was that about? Who the heck was that guy? That was kinda scary... All these thoughts whirled around in her head as she just sat there at a loss for words.

For once, Frey actually felt fairly calm being out in a public area, like with Nez around, things just seemed perfectly fine. Following the energetic Nez around the store, Frey couldn't help but to smile a bit as Nez started that she liked ravioli as well. As they walked into the pasta aisle, side by side, Frey couldn't help but to notice the two elderly women glancing at them, smiles on their faces. As Frey and Nez passed one of them tried to whisper to the other, but their hearing not being what it use to, she said it louder than she probably thought. Frey felt his face warming up as a harsh blush came to his face, they thought that him and Nez were in love?! The thought made Frey's heart skip a beat and he was glad that Nez seemed to distracted by other things to look at his reddened face.
As Nez turned and started walking, Frey let out a silent breath to try and calm himself a bit, his face slowly returning to normal. Hearing a thud, Frey's attention quickly turned onto Nez, only to find her landing on the floor, a rather large man in a bulky suit and shades standing over her. "Five Inbound. 1-1-2-6-10" a robotic voice sounded lightly from Frey's headphones that sat around his neck. Frey's heart skipped another beat, this time however, out of fear, and kept his head lowered in case the man looked in his direction. Thankfully, the man walked off and Frey quickly went over to Nez, holding out a hand to help her back to her feet. His gaze shifted slightly into the direction the man went off into before he looked back at Nez "We should go." he spoke a bit of fear creeping into his voice. Why'd they have to show up here?! Why now?! I can't let Nez get hurt because of me! Frey's thoughts started running, eyes darting around slightly as he calculated a plan.
x x xNez heard Frey's footsteps getting closer to her as his hand entered her field of vision. She smiled and accepted his offer, Nez stood back up and dusted herself off. She was about to tell Frey how creepy that guy looked but when she saw Frey's face, she instantly noticed that something was off. We should go? But why? "Huh?" Confused, she tilted her head to the side. She didn't understand why Frey was acting weird all of a sudden, was it because of the creepy guy in the suit? Sure that was a little strange but we shouldn't just leave because of that...right? I've seen stranger looking people than that, maybe Frey's not used to weirdos I guess... She thought and gave Frey's hand a comforting squeeze. "It's alright Frey...I'm fine...everything's okay...we're almost finished, don't worry" Nez smiled innocently, she was naive to the dangers that were lurking around them. She then noticed Frey's eyes were looking around frantically, as fear laced his features. Her heart trembled slightly as she began to worry. "H-Hey...what's the matter?" She placed her free hand on his shoulder hesitantly and looked into his eyes. The happy atmosphere of the store was slowly turning dark and eerily quiet. Nez too began to look around, the elderly women who were in the same aisle as them were nowhere in sight and it felt like they were the only two in the store at that very moment. But at the same time there was this overwhelming feeling that they were being watched as well. Nez gulped nervously as she slowly glanced back at Frey, her happy smile and mood vanishing as she spoke once again. "Frey?....What's going on?" She asked in fear of what Frey would answer.

As Nez got back to her feet, Frey pulled a small earpiece out of the side of his headphones and slipped it into his ear, his gaze still flicking about. Feeling a hand on his shoulder, Frey tensed a bit, relaxing slightly as he realized that the hand belonged to Nez who seemed worried about his sudden change in mood. "2-2-4-5-8" The mechanic voice spoke clearly through the earpiece. "Link to John." Frey spoke softly."Linking..." the voice responded. Hand still grasping Nez's, Frey turned his eyes onto her his voice staying a bit quieter than usual. "I can't explain much right now. We need to go, there are certain people here that.... shouldn't be here..." Frey spoke before starting to walk cautiously through the aisle. "Hey, Frey! What's up? Lose something again?" the familiar voice of John came through Frey's headpiece offering at least a bit of relief. "John, we're at the food market, members of the Order showed up." Frey spoke peering around the corner"Aisle three.Clear. One inbound, 6" the machine spoke again. "Jeez, alright, hang in there we're on the way. You connected to mach?" John asked a bit of ruffling in the background as John prepared. "Always." Frey responded, his grip tightening slightly on Nez's hand "This way." he spoke before he quickly made their way over to aisle three.
Entering the aisle, Frey looked at Nez, "I'm really sorry about this. I promise to explain what I can when we get home... Right now though... I need you to trust me."Frey spoke knowing that he probably sounded like a total freak right now. But hey, that wasn't anything new for him. She's probably gonna quit after this... the thought struck Frey a bit harder than some of the other things going through him at the moment and he unconsciously tightened his grip for a moment again as his gaze drifted off down the aisle.
x x xThings were going from 0 to 100 real quick. Nez could hardly believe what was going on. Certain people that shouldn't be here? The Order? If she wasn't so worried about what was going on, she would've been blushing because they were still holding hands as they walked through the aisles cautiously. Nez heard Frey begin to talk, at first she thought he was talking to her but then she quickly realized that he was talking to someone in his earpeice. Why is he speaking with John at a time like this? I thought he was just his co-worker and car buddy, what could he do to help us? These thoughts were making her more and more confused, nothing is making sense right now. She felt Freys hand tighten around hers as he pulled her over to the third aisle in the store. "Why are they after us? Wait....are they after you?" She asked as the realization shocked her. But before she could ask anymore questions Frey simlpy told her that he would explain when they got home. Nez stared at him for a moment in fear. Who are you Frey? She nodded slowly and hesitantly. Theres something about Frey that makes her want to trust him, she doesn't know what or why exactly but she listens to him and followed. It was then that she felt Freys hand tighten around hers once more, but this time it was different, it was gentle but it also felt sad for a moment. She didn't understand, but she squeezed back just to reassure him that she was there. "I trust you...Lead the way and I'll follow.." She gave him one of her signature smiles even though her heart was currently trying to pound it's way out of her chest.
She suddenly started to hear footsteps, they were getting louder and louder but she couldn't quite pin point where they were coming from. Nez glanced at Frey, fear in her eyes, so many questions still whirling around in her head, but she also knew that they needed to get to safety..fast. "L-let's go home" She whispered.

Frey felt his heart stop for a moment as Nez asked if the people were after him, and gave a small nod. He wanted so badly to be able to tell Nez what was happening, try and get her to understand and maybe even stay his friend after this, but words failed him and now was not the time for explaining things. Some relief washed over the computer hacker as Nez spoke in a soft voice that she trusted him and a few moments later his heart fluttered a bit as she stated that they should head home. Something about her voice, and the light squeeze from her hand allowed Frey to feel slightly more relaxed. It was at that moment he realized he was still holding her hand in his own, a light blush coming to his face for a moment, though he didn't let go, worried he may lose her.
"Thanks, Nez." Frey spoke quietly, a soft smile coming to his face as he looked at the girl. "one. Five to Six. One Ten to eleven."the mechanical voice snapped Frey's attention back completely to the matter at hand. Alright, that's not good.... Frey thought to himself. "Aisle seven. Clear." the voice continued. Looking around the aisles, Frey started to concoct a plan, and after a few moments, he turned back to Nez. "Which way to aisle seven?" he asked quietly. He knew he could asked the machine, but he felt like talking to Nez would help keep both of the a bit calmer. Almost hesitatntly, Frey released Nez's hand and walked quietly over to the shelves, taking a can of soup and weighing it in a hand. "You think you can launch one of these down a few aisle's away from seven?" he questioned a small smirk coming to his face, grabbing another can of soup for himself to throw. All they had to do was hold out until John and the others showed up, the way Frey saw it, using the cans to cause noise would be a more than useful distraction.
x x xNez saw him nod and she instantly wanted to ask more questions, but she knew that now was simply not the time. She just smiled once more when he thanked her. She was about to say something until she noticed that Frey seemed to snap back to what he was originally doing and focused on the voice inside his earpiece. He suddenly turned towards her again and asked her where aisle seven was. Shocked at the abrupt question made by the computer wiz, she answered. "Um...It's to the left, down four aisles.." She informed Frey quickly, feeling useful to him in this situation made her happy and proud of herself. She still felt fear but adrenaline was pumping thorough her veins and being able to hear her heart beating erratically right now was giving her a sense of survival she had never quite felt before. The exhilaration was making her chest a bit numb as she took the can from Frey. She felt safe with him. Nez nodded at his request and proceeded to take a small peak around the corner of the aisle. Since they needed to go to seven, then she'll just throw this can towards the pharmacy section of the store, a little ways away from aisle 1. A smirk started to form on her face as she got ready to launch the can of soup, so they can make their get away. She gave a quick glance at Frey, and then towards her target. Nez tightened her grip around the can and dipped her right hand downwards, then after a second of calculating, she tossed the can far away from them. After a second of silence, there was a sudden clatter followed up by multiple other clatters of many other cans and products. Whoops...I think I hit one of the displays over there...
Nez glanced at Frey bashfully and rubbed the back of her neck. "I-I'm not the best at hand-eye-coordination...heh sorry." She apologized for her mistake but it turned out that the noise was just what they needed. They started to hear rapid footsteps going towards all the noise. "Over there!" "We found him." She heard deep voices in the distance. It sounded like a lot of people were after Frey... When the footsteps sounded far enough away she quickly glanced at Frey and took his hand once more. Now's our chance! They cautiously ran towards aisle seven. If we keep this up then we'll be out of here in no time!
