…Chapter Six…

"Um, Desi." Kozik scratched his head. "Why are we at Bed Bath and Beyond?"

"So I can get a general idea on what stuff I want to buy for the house and I want to start scanning some things, so people will know what to buy for my house warming party."

"Can't we go to a man store, like Home Depot, or Lowes?" Kozik frowned, which made Desirae laugh out loud. "And can't you look up this stuff on the internet and order it?"

"Probably, but you're the one that had to come with me, so it looks like you'll have to deal with it."

"Is that why you didn't want me to bring my bike? To make me suffer through all the girly shopping?"

Desirae smirked. "Pretty much… but maybe you'll think twice about coming with me next time, huh?"

"Oh, no, no, no." he shook his head. "You're not winning this one, Princess… no way."

"We'll see, Cupcake." she laughed, grabbing his arm. "Bring your ass."

After they walked inside the building, Kozik looked around. "What exactly are you getting?"

"I told you, some stuff for the house." she said, with a 'duh' look on her face.

"Okay, Smart Ass, like what?"

"Just look and see if you find something, then ask yourself: what would look cool in there?"

Kozik raised his arms up in the air. "I have no clue, I haven't even seen your house, so how would I know what would look cool?"

"God, Kozik!" she smacked his arm. "You're hopeless."

"I'm telling you, we should go to Home Depot."

"Maybe later." Desirae went up to customer service. "Excuse me." she read the name tag. "Ella?"

"Yes, how can I help you?"

"Uh, yeah." Desirae noticed Kozik standing closer to her with a goofy grin on his face. "I need to sign up for the gift registry, so I can make a list for my upcoming house warming party."

"Alright." Ella went into a drawer and pulled out a paper, then gave it to Desirae, along with a pen. "Fill this out for me please."

"Okay." she nodded and started writing her information down.

Ella smiled. "You two sure are a cute couple."

Desirae snapped her head up. "What?"

"Is this your first house together?"

Before Desirae could open her mouth to respond, Kozik put her arm around her shoulder, and smiled. "Why, yes it is." he gave Desirae a kiss on the cheek. "Isn't that right, Popsicle?" she stared at him incredulously as he gave her the 'just-play-along' look, then she rolled her eyes, and continued filling out the form.

When Desirae was finished, she handed it back. "Here."

"Okay." Ella grabbed two scanning guns. "Both of you take these and scan whatever you want. After you're done, bring them back, and I'll give you a print out of your list."

"Okay, thank you." Desirae nodded.

"Wow, I must say." Ella smiled. "You two look perfect for each other and that's very rare to find two people that looks like they were meant for one another."

Kozik quickly gave Desirae a hug and nodded. "I know, right?" he grabbed both of the scanner guns. "Let's go, Sweetheart."

"Sure, Honey." she gritted through her teeth, then glanced at Ella. "Thank you so much."

"No problem and congrats on your new home."

"Thanks." Kozik waved, with a smile, then they waked away.

Once they were out of Ella's line of sight, Desirae snatched one of the guns out of Kozik's hand, and smacked him in the arm with her other hand. "What the hell was that about?"

"What? I was just kidding, Princess… besides, I'm not the one who assumed that we were together. Geez, I just embellished a little."

"A little? Well, you putting your arm around me and kissing me on the cheek, didn't help her to not assume that." she crossed her arms over her chest. "I should kick your ass all over this damn store."

"Princess." he smirked. "I'd really like to see you try."

"You know, I suddenly want something very bad to happen to you right now."

"Yeah, riiiiiight." he chuckled. "Let's start scanning shit for our new house, Cupcake."

"You're such a dick." she laughed, shaking her head, then they went through the store, scanning items for the gift list.

...

"That was actually fun, Princess." Kozik said, as they were headed to her house, to meet the Realtor. "But don't be surprised if you get some weird things."

"What do you mean?" she thought about it, then out of the corner of her eye, she saw Kozik grinning." What did you do?"

"Oh, nothing." he chuckled.

"Kozik, did you scan all the ugly stuff I would never want?"

"I might have." he wiggled his eyebrows.

Desirae glared at him for a second, before looking back at the road. "Now, I'm really going to kick your ass."

"Sure, you will… but look at it this way, if you do end up getting the ugly stuff, you can just take it back."

"Ugh!" she groaned. "I hate you, Kozik!"

"Yeah, right! You know you love me." he smacked her leg. "But seriously though, just take it to the store, and get the money back." he shrugged. "It's not that hard."

Desirae parked in front of her house and shut off the engine. "I wouldn't have to, if you didn't scan the things that I don't want."

"Okay, answer me this… what if you double up on something? You'd take the extra one back, right?"

"I guess so."

"So, what's the difference?"

Desirae glared at him, then groaned. "Why are you driving me fucking crazy?"

"Because I'm awesome."

"Yeah, keep telling yourself that." she grabbed her purse. "Come on, and bring your ass." then both of them got out of the car.

"Aww, Princess, this is a cute little house."

Desirae punched him in the chest. "Shut up, Jerk." she started walking up to the door, with Kozik behind her, wincing a little. She just laughed at him and ran the door bell, and it opened, moments later. "Hello, Benny." she smiled.

"Miss Crawford, it's nice to see you again."

"Hi, I'm Kozik."

"Oh, are you Miss Crawford's boyfriend?"

"Why, yes… I." Desirae quickly elbowed Kozik in his stomach. "Ow!"

"Why does everyone assume that? No, actually." she glared up at him, then looked back at Benny. "He's a friend."

"Yeah." Kozik winced. "Just a friend."

"I see." Benny opened the door a little more. "Come on in." she nodded, then her and Kozik walked inside and followed Benny to the living room.

"Damn." Kozik looked around. "This is nice. Can I move in with you?"

Desirae scoffed. "Boy, please… I've seen your room and you ain't gonna dirty my house."

"It's not that bad."

"Oh, really?" she rolled her eyes, then turned her attention back to Benny. "So, when can I have the keys?"

"Right now." he reached into his pocket and set them in her hand. "This house is officially yours, Miss Crawford."

"Hell yeah." she gave Benny a hug, then let go. "Thank you so much, for helping me with this."

"It's no problem." he grabbed his briefcase and smiled. "If you need me for anything else, just give me a call."

"I will."

"Congratulations on your new home and take care."

"Thanks, you too." Desirae nodded, watching Benny walk out the door, then she turned to Kozik. "I'm a home owner!"

"Good for you, Princess." he gave her a thumbs up. "Now, all you gotta do is buy some shit to put in here, because it looks way too empty."

"Well, duh." she headed towards the door. "Make yourself useful and help me bring the stuff I bought inside."

"Yes, Mom." he chuckled, following her out to the Beamer. "When you getting the big shit? Like, beds, couches, and tables."

"When I go shopping again and no, you're not going with me."

"Why not?"

"Kozik, you scanned the shit I don't want, so why would I want you to come with me a second time?"

"I told you, it's because I'm awesome."

"Ugh!" she groaned loudly.

"Oh." he nudged her. "Relax and don't get your panties in a twist."

"Ha - ha, Asshole." she smacked his arm, then they got the bags out of the trunk, which took three trips, into the house, then left to the clubhouse.
