larry is your boyfriend. he decided to take you out to go shopping today! it was winter, so it was darker out. but, it wasn’t very peaceful. it was pitch black at like 6 pm. and very noisy. homeless guys recreating the tyson & paul fight? yup. the other homeless guys cooking up some smores with an almost broken lighter? uh huh! tiktokers doing their little silly tiktok dances? right-o! a mother yelling at her children for asking for a toy so close to christmas? mhm. and so much more. planes, race cars, dogs, other unidentified people and animals. it was all just kinda overstimulating.

larry noticed you were feeling a little quiet n tense. you hadn’t been talking, froze every couple seconds, and released your grip in his hand a little bit. he pulled you into a store close by.

“you okay?”
