Disclaimer: Ah, the things I would do if I owned it…

On their way back to the base, Sai grabbed a yellow and brown bag, figuring it would save him some time for the next mission. They were almost one-third of the way done, which was close to their old record of three-fifths of the way down their list. Oh yes, they were getting excited.

Miriallia sighed as she slid herself into the rather cramped space. Her guys had somehow managed to avoid security, so she had decided to take matters into her own hands and track them down herself. She had seen them leave from inside a clothes rack, and figured it was their hideout. So there she was, curled up under a rack of clothes, wondering how to handle the situation. She could yell at them, and get them kicked out of the store, but Tolle had been the one driving, and if she got him mad she could very well be walking home. He had done it before, driving away laughing. It had been raining that day too. She could also just tell them it was time to leave, but that punishment didn't seem severe enough. Leaning her head back against a metal pole, Miriallia sighed. Shopping days were always long. Wasn't even sure why she put up with them.

Tolle smirked and held a snicker back when he saw tufts of light brown hair sticking out of the base. He had to admit, Miriallia was good, and for that she deserved something great. The others had noticed Tolle's smirk and quickly caught on. Tolle went in first, sneaking behind the space he assumed Miriallia was occupying.

She screamed. Not really loud, it was more of a yelp than a scream. Something… something wet had just hit her neck. It was persistent, it was warm, it was… She froze. Tolle was kissing her neck very affectionately. In front of their friends. Miriallia had always been shy about showing affection in public, but this was really pushing her limits. Scrambling out of the clothes rack, she faced him, putting on her best glare.

Tolle had always loved how cute Miriallia was when she was mad. Like right now, she would have looked threatening, but the cherry blush that covered her face kind of ruined the effect. Kira came up behind her while she was distracted with Tolle and wrapped an arm around her neck in a mock headlock and whispered something about her having to be punished for infiltrating their base. The whole time Sai and Kuzzey were laughing at her.

Finally being released from Kira, Miriallia spun around to glare at the others, losing her balance and falling into Tolle's arms in the process. Today was definitely not her day. "How's my princess doing today?" Tolle asked her, not bothering to lower his voice. Miriallia rolled her eyes.

"Remind me why I hang out with you?" She asked in an annoyed tone.

"Because it's either us or Fllay's army of clones." Tolle told her without missing a beat. Sai quickly objected to this, defending his long-time crush.

"Enough already." Kuzzey intervened. "Sai, are you ready for 'Operation: Hold Me.'?" He asked.

"Something tells me I don't want to know." Miriallia interjected.

"You're probably right there." Tolle confirmed while putting his arm around her waste.

"Yeah, I have it." Sai told the rest of them. After discussing it further, Miriallia got the general idea of what they were planning to do, and after deciding it wasn't destructive, decided to let them complete one last task. With some rather dramatic farewells, Sai headed to the customer service counter, bag in hand.

"Um, Hi miss," Sai started when he reached the front of the line, "Uh, could I put this on hold?" He asked her while showing her the bag. It was all he could do not to crack up when he saw the look on her face.

"You want me to- to put a bag of- of M&M's on hold? I don't think that will be necessary sir. I can assure you we have plenty, and they don't sell very quickly."

"But I need this bag." Sai insisted. "It's really important. The customer is always right, correct?" He continued, losing his cool façade when he saw the emotions running across her face. She sighed. Customers were so weird these days.

"Alright." She told him with a sigh. "What name should I put it under?"

"My name is, Porky McPorkpork!" He declared before scurrying off to the base, leaving a very confused sales associate sitting at the customer service counter.

A/N: I know I took a while, but I have a good excuse. I was just about to sit down and write this when my GSD complete collection came, and I had to watch it! But then I was feeling guilty about not updating this, so I stopped (at the end of ep 46) and came here to update. Updates will be slower until Thursday. Science fair is coming up (we're being forced into it by our science teacher) and we were only given 2/3 of the time recommended, so as you can tell, we're a little rushed.
