As long as you love me Chapter 2, a biker mice from mars fanfic

The houses that had been built for them were impressive to say the least.

The rustic colonial style cabin houses sat on an twenty acre lot. An acre apart, from Stokers place. They were nice and cozy and suited the personal tastes and needs of Modo and Throttle. Both of whom would be living as bachelors until they met a female willing to saddle herself with them and bear their young.

They'd each checked out their new homes and taken note of the things that they had, like furniture and appliances.

And the things that their new homes lacked, like food, clothes, personal effects, hygiene products, exct... Which was why after they borrowed the SUV after dropping Stoker off at his new place which was at least twice as big and impressive as Throttle and Modo's homes combined. The trip to the local super center took fifteen minutes.

Which was fine by Throttle since Modo had been the one driving while he tried to rest a little bit more in the front passenger seat while Vinny amused himself by playing with the automatic window. Once they were in the parking lot and the car was parked. The three unbuckled themselves and climbed out of the car and looked around almost awkwardly.

Gods there were people everywhere.

Men. Women. Children and teens. All of them walking or running. All of them talking or arguing or laughing or crying. All of them alive and healthy.

It was such a welcome sight compared to the deserted streets and razed neighborhoods littered with broken and dead bodies that they had grown up seeing back on Mars during the war. "I don't think I'll ever get over how many people there are..." Modo said in awe as a couple with a small child walked by.

The baby looked right at them and blinked it's blue eyes and held a little spit covered hand out in their direction and made cooing sounds. "Awww." Vinny said as he lifted one hand and wiggled his fingers at the little one before it and it's parents disappeared from sight.

"You like kids Vinny?" Modo asked curiously because he'd never seen Vinny wave at a kid before. He'd seen him kick a puppy a time or two, but those had been accidents due to the puppies getting under his feet when they should have steered clear.

Vinny looked at him and blushed a little bit. "Hell no."

"How are you going to help us rebuild our population if you don't like kids?"

"Easy. I'm not having kids once I have myself a nice girl. I won't want to share. Besides...any kid I have is bound to be dropped on it's head or something. So it'd be better and safer for all if I don't have any kids to begin with." Vinny said in an unusually somber tone, his expression unreadable as he started walking.

The inside of the super store was just like the Wal-mart that they had visited when they had first landed on earth. Which made things a little easier on them since they had so much stuff that they had to buy. As soon as they walked through the front door and grabbed a buggy, they were off in separate directions.

Throttle hit the hygiene aisle first, grabbing some razors, a hair brush, some deodorant, co lone, a tooth brush and tooth paste then moved on to the next aisle to grab some shampoo and soap. Then headed over to the clothes aisle and looking through the stuff.

He found several sweaters. A dark blue one, a red one, a black one, a white knit. He found some Capri pants and some jeans, and went looking for a dressing room so that he could make sure that the clothes fit him before putting them in the small pile in his buggy then went looking for some other things.

He found himself some formal shirts and ties (because he believed in being prepared for anything) some black, white and gray dress pants to match the shirts and ties. Socks. Jackets. Hoodies. He didn't bother with any underwear since it caused his furless skin to chafe. He did however grab some sweat pants and thin pajama pants to wear around his new home then found himself a few hats before moving on to the shoe section to find him some nice leather boots.

Modo was starting to get irritated as Vinny whizzed by him for the up tenth time while riding on his buggy and singing 'It's the most wonderful time of the Year' like in the back to school commercial that sometimes played on TV. Vinny reached the end of the aisle and turned the buggy around and started to come back, one arm reaching out and absent mindedly knocking random things into his buggy as he sang.

Modo's eye twitched a little bit and he abruptly set the can of tomato sauce down and extended his arm and clothes lined Vinny in mid verse. "It's the most wonderful time of the-errrgth!"

Vinny hit the white tile floor on his back with a soft thud and lay there making overly dramatic choking sounds as Modo stopped his buggy to keep it from slamming into some hapless person then picked up another can of tomato sauce and stepped over his bro and started walking away.

Intending to get as far away as possible and pretend that he didn't know the blond twitching on the floor.

Throttle was looking in the book section of the store. Not for any real reason, he was just curious about what sort of literature the humans had on hand. He'd never read a book written by a human before and figured that it might be fun to do in his spare time if he could find something that interested him.

So far he was having trouble reigning in his irritation. All he was seeing was a bunch of sissy books. And he'd die an agonizing death before he ever so much as picked up a raunchy romance. Where was the stuff that manly men liked to read?

He growled without realizing it, not knowing that he was drawing a few curious stares from some of the other people standing in the general vicinity of where he was currently standing with his arms crossed, his foot tapping the tile floor in a slow rhythm as he scanned the book titles. He was about to turn and leave when a pale slender arm appeared from somewhere to his side with a thick dark blue book with the words Lover Eternal appeared in front of his face, startling him slightly since he generally heard people when they walked up to or close to him.

He jerked his head to the left and glanced down and blinked at the thick dark hair that topped the head of the person standing in his personal space. The human tipped his/her head back a little bit and he nearly squeaked as his eyes locked with the most beautiful and unnatural looking vermilion eyes he'd ever seen before over the rims of some thin wired darkly tinted shades. "You look like your looking for a good read."

He blinked again, not really sure what to say. Or if he was even capable of speech at this point since his voice had yet to make a sound. So he just nodded mutely.

The woman chuckled and moved the book in her hand in front of his face twice before he grabbed it on reflex and looked it over. It looked like just another sissy book to him. "Do you like vampires?" The woman asked curiously and he was really, really tempted to ask her if she was going to bite him if he said yes.

"Uh...yes." He said weakly wondering what she would say to him now. She chuckled again and he tilted his head a little bit and then straitened his head again when he almost lost his hood.

"That's good. Then you might actually like that book."

He didn't say anything, he just looked at the book again. This time a little suspiciously. As if he expected it to grow fangs and bite his fingers off or something. And nearly jumped out of his skin when he looked away from the book and found her squatting on the floor in front of him with her elbows resting on her knees and her chin propped up, her head tipped back so that she could see-

His heart slammed against his ribs in alarm as he hastily moved his free hand to jerk his hood down to hide his face a little better, half expecting her to shriek "Oh my god it's Orlando!" and cause a riot like several other women had done to him. But instead she gave him an amused smile and slipped her shades off and then stood up and said.

"You have such pretty eyes. A peculiar color, but pretty never the less-" She slipped her shades on his face before he could react and he tensed, expecting the worst but instead she just drew her hand back and turned and started to walk away.

He took a small step after her, wanting to ask her why she had given him her shades but she beat him to it. Answering his question before he could even get it out. "Make sure to keep those on. And get a hair cut. No more than an inch or so off if you don't want people thinking that you're him. And if that book doesn't do it for you, then try the Playboy magazines behind you."

"Uh-"

"Later."
