WHO: @evienotnicksā & fitzyĀ WHERE: melvaldās grocery store WHEN: ā«Ā closing tiiiiime
after a double shift from hell, fitzy was ready to hotbox his shitty car and then collapse on to his bed to watch thundercats reruns for five minutes until he fell asleep. the day had been long and exhausting. fitzy didnāt want anyone to get it twisted, he was happy that bennyās reopened and that he had something to do and somewhere to be, but man, he was tired. he was just about done cleaning the grill when his boss, bennyās newphew, approached him to let him know they were low on some things and heād need to make a stop first thing in the morning the next day.Ā
first thing in the morning? not a chance. fitzy was not a morning person. heād make the stop tonight, store what he needed in his fridge at home, and bring it in the next day. that would be an efficient use of his time. so with the grocery list in hand, fitzy walked to his car, rattled the engine to life, and sped off to melvaldās. when he got there, their doors were locked.Ā
āno,ā fitzy groaned, shaking the handles,Ā āno, come on. please! iāll be quick!ā most of the workers he could still see inside cleaning were acting like they couldnāt see him, but he knew they could.Ā ācome on,ā fitz begged, now banging on the glass,Ā ādo a guy a solid!ā it was then that he locked eyes with someone he hadnāt seen beforeāsomeone about his age.Ā āhey!ā he waved, smiling widely at the girl as he held up his hot pink sticky note,Ā ācan i please just grab a few things? iāll be in and out, swear.ā both his hands were pressed to the door and his face was so close to it he was fogging up the glass with his breath.Ā āplease,ā he mouthed, hoping his detour wouldnāt be for nothing.Ā
