Shop Till You Drop

Looking at some of the clothes in the male’s section, the red head with red eyes was currently looking over more ‘colorful’ clothes for his new bond partner. Though, not in the color sense but more in the style as he wanted to see the other in more than just the basic jacket, shirt, collar, pants, combo that he always wore without fail. Only sometimes did the jacket come off, but that was still kind of boring. Rayden needed a taste of the more exotic clothes, and Adam also wanted to see that on him so what was the harm in getting him some things.

Part of him wanted to buy something more riske as a gift for the other, to see that gentle fluster before the package was shoved away or back to him and he was called one of the many names the blond would call him when displaced with his antics. But no, he was being good at looking at a new short. Not exactly a tshirt, but closer in style to the more punk the other often dressed in. The dress-like shirt in darker color didn’t come in a color he thought, so putting the shirt back he moved on.

It wasn’t a big haul, trying to ease him into being pampered by the maybe too rich for his own good male who wanted that blond boy as his. Adam just so happened to care too, and that poor male he now called his bond partner was somewhere on his case list.

SItting in the cart was Rai, making his home on a bag of socks that were nestled next to a pair of shoes Adam also had picked out. The small orange dragon was pleased, peaking his head out to grab at some more socks as Adam said he could pick out whatever he wanted as long as it was for Rayden. With the socks being so warm, how could Rayden ever not want more of them?

“More socks!”

“Alright Rai, pick out more socks for Rayden. I’ll grab some shirts...” Looking at some more band shirts, Adam was holding them up to imagine them on Rayden, though some went back and others went in the cart.

Pulling down a tiny pair of shorts, Rayden double checked the size before tossing them in the cart. Darkness peered over into the metal basket on wheels to look at the pair of undies. The smalls were so tiny and even the clothes were tailored to them like little teddy bears. Reaching over, he grabbed hold of a few more pairs of clothes to toss in the cart. Which earned a couple stares from his rider who sighed, starting to put a few back. At least one of the outfits was kept inside, keeping the dark dragon pleased and wiggly.

Rayden always thought it was cute the way they threw clouds every which way when they wiggled too much. Like a tiny dark dust storm. They didn't have the means for a bunch of nice clothes though, only buying for the little ones that had holes starting to form. Granted, Rayden already had an impressive amount of clothes with holes, rips, and tears that certainly weren't in fashion, but he preferred putting his siblings first.

Just as he was examining another shirt for one of the girls he happened to glance over at the perfect moment to catch a certain someone's ruby eyed stare. Blinking at them he could have sworn he felt something through the bond, but before it could register that blond haired boy was already taking off once again. Yelling for Darkness to take care of things and actually tossing back his wallet this time for the dragon to pay with.

“Boxers for the Rayden God?” Rai asked as Adam just looked over more shirts that were placed ratherly neatly in the basket that Rai was tossing this and that into, Adam figured he’d have to go through and make sure all was the right size in the end but Rai was without a doubt helping his rider find things for the other more huffy rider who didn’t appreciate their company at times.

“Yes, boxers for the...” Drifting off as he looked up, eyes meeting with Rayden, he suddenly dropped the shirt he was holding and darted off after the other male who indeed, didn’t appreciate their company.

It didn’t take long for Adam to tackle the other to the carpeted ground, at least this one a softer surface that Adam was more included to tackle on. It wouldn’t leave bruises if those tender spots were hit, though rug burn was a thing that would happen and came as an after thought as they slid a short distance.

“Where are you going, Rayden?” Adam asked as he grinned down at that very displeased face, screeching all the way as Adam just leaned down to enjoy the wriggling mass of a person. “So which deal are we going to do today? Kisses, lay here all day, or invite me back for some dinner with the kids? I know how you just loooooove that last one.” As did the kids, which is why Adam would forever offer that one.

Catching the wallet with one of his many arms, Darkness went ahead and pulled it back into himself. This was a new place with a familiar scene giving him that sense of deja vu. Thinking back to the other day, it made him wonder if for some reason the bond was a like a red string of fate, making the pair run into each other more often than usual, despite what either of them preferred.

Taking the wheel at the cart, he reduced his hands to two, long body worming its way across the ground as he went to check on the pair. He was actually getting a very new, very strange sensation in his bony limbs, a small sting that he didn't quite understand since he hadn't been bonded with Rayden for all that long. Rather than leave them be like normal, Darkness moved himself to drape over Adam, hardly adding on weight despite how quickly the small dragon had grown already. The size of a full grown man now, he hugged the two, knowing that was usually what his rider did when the kids got sad or hurt from roughhousing.

"Fuckin dammit Adam, why the hell do I see your ass all over the place now!? Even outside of school now!" It was bad enough they had so many classes together. It hadn't been before since he flew right under that red head's radar. But nooo, something had clicked in that lewd mind of theirs that he was suddenly a good target since their bond.

Having carpet at home and six little siblings that had way too much energy between them, Rayden was used to the sting in his arms. Having the usual dragon dog pile on though confused him so hard. "Dammit Darkness, don't encourage him, you get off too!" Heaving a sigh, he was more inclined towards the last one considering it was the easiest. "Fine, whatever, you better like stew, cause that's what we'll be eating."
