You pushed open the entrance as a shrill bell shook above the door, alerting the deadpan cashier stuck behind the register at such a late hour. Gigi slithered behind you with a playful grin on her expression before abandoning you to stroll the multiple aisles. Following her lead of excitement, you spared a glance at the worker before exploring the gas station yourself to pick out some snacks and drinks.

You and Gigi were planning on having a sleepover together but not without materials for the night. As a result, the two of you landed on the idea of heading to the 24 hour gas station for food before anything else. Your mind tried to rack ideas of what type of food you should pick out, scanning through the displays while muffled music played in the background from the shop’s speakers.

That’s when you suddenly got yanked away into a darker corner of the gas station, met with the face of Gigi smiling with a mischievous glint in her eyes. She gestured you towards the selection of junk food laid in rows on the shelves as her smirk broadened.

“We should totally just grab some stuff and run out. You could cover the drink section while I slide some food into my capsule before making a break for it.”

Gigi mumbled into your ear while darting her gaze towards the cashier, looking back at you holding an amusing demeanor. She seemed oddly proud of her groundless plan, almost as if she was sure it was going to work with the right execution.
