Chapter 17
"We're home" Steph calls opening the door and walking inside, she puts her bag down on the table and walks into the lounge where the others are sitting around watching TV "Hurry up Chris!" Stephanie calls to him as he stumbles through the door with arms full of bags and boxes of shopping, the bags and parcels wobble around as he walks nearly tipping him over. He puts them down on the kitchen table and collapses into a chair.
"Never, ever, ever again!" Chris whimpers kicking off his shoes and rubbing his feet "I ache all over, I never knew that shopping hurt so much and was such hard work" Chris moans putting his head down on the table.
"So, what did you buy us?" Duke asks walking into the kitchen rummaging through the bags, Steph bats his hand away and looks through one of the bags and pulls out a baseball cap "Ohhh is this present for me..Coolies!" Duke laughs taking the hat and removing his old one and pulling the new one down onto his head.
"Yeah that's for you, I got some new sneakers for Kidd because his smell and I got KK some more hair spray because he said his ran out" Steph says pulling out the sneakers and the hair spray and handing them to Duke.
"What did you get Chris?" Duke asks trying to look through the bags again while Steph is distracted putting away all their shopping into the cupboards "It looks like you half killed him anyways" Duke leans down and grabs Chris's hair and lifts his head off the table and looks at him. He lets go of his head letting it drop to the table again "I cant believe he even offered to go with you, I cant believe he even thought you meant it when you got him to go because you said he liked it"
"Here, make yourself useful and put away this for me" Stephanie says handing him some of the bags of shopping, Duke starts putting it away in the cupboards not really knowing where anything went. Steph walks over to Chris and puts her arms around him and leans her head on his back "I love you" Steph whispers in his ear and kisses the top of his head "I think I did kill him off" She laughs putting the last lot away.
"He's probably just pretending so that you'll take a bath with him" Duke laughs making Chris start laughing too
"I'm not actually, although I'm starting to wonder why I didn't think of that myself!" Chris laughs sitting up and leaning back in his chair "It's the least I deserve walking round after her all day carrying all her bags, oh yeah and did I mention waiting outside the changing rooms while she tried everything on!"
"Well I invited you in but you said you were alright" Steph laughs sitting down on Chris's lap and wrapping an arm around his neck.
"Chris! Dude! What were you thinking, she invited you into the changing room with her and you turned her down, your mind really is warped! Now if that was me.." Duke laughs winking at Steph, Chris glares at him and wraps his arms around her "Only joking buddy..She wouldn't have even of had to ask me!"
"Yeah ok Duke whatever you say" Chris laughs standing up with Steph in his arms "I really don't think I can walk you know" Chris moans walking slowly into the lounge and dropping down into the armchair with Steph. "I'm never ever going shopping with you again"
"Aww but it was fun and we got to spend a whole day together" Steph laughs getting up and standing behind him, she starts rubbing his shoulders and neck "Why don't we go to bed and I'll give you a nice massage to relax you after a day of shopping?" Steph whispers in his ear.
"Wow, I think I can suddenly walk again! Let's go!" Chris laughs getting up and grabbing Steph's hand, KK goes to answer the door after the bell rings. He opens the door and lets the visitors in.
"Chris, some people to see you" KK shouts to him, Chris stops and looks over to the door and sees the two guys that had approached him in the mall standing there, Chris looks at them and then to Steph. How had they found out where he was, he didn't even know who they were but they seemed to know him..
