"A 'me' day?" Tracy repeated absently, his arm snaking around Cynthia's much smaller form as he thought on it. Any day that he got to spend lazing around the house with his girlfriend instead of working was what he considered to be a fantastic day. When she insisted that it didn't have to be now, Tracy brought his hand unceremoniously over the whole of her face and whispered a small yet prolonged<span style="font-style: italic">shhhhhh.</span>He thought about it, thought about it some more, and then stopped suffocating his girlfriend. "You want to hit those shops?"<br/><br/>Tracy had never been one for shopping, but they were miles away from the nearest big city and small-town store chains were absolutely brimming with cool shit to look at. Urban exploration was one of his many loves and hobbies, and while he couldn't go breaking into abandoned buildings - all thanks to teenage Tracy getting arrested and expunged once already - he could settle for the next best thing. Picking out neat looking objects, making fun of the quirky and probably racist locals, and deciding if that one culty shop summoned Satan in the back room.<br/><br/>A grin spread along Tracy's lips and he rolled suddenly off the side of the bed, making a beeline for their attached bathroom. "Well<span style="font-style: italic">come on,</span>I'm not going to take a shower alone."<br/><br/>------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>The car door made a satisfying noise as it slammed shut behind Tracy, who stood with his arms stretched languidly up in the air. It felt good to get out and move around, but it felt even better to be exploring their new home. It wasn't painfully far away from their old home, but Tracy was adventurous even when he only walked down the block and back. He complained about kids and their unrealistic energy levels, but he was much the same.<br/><br/>"See? Totally culty, I told you," Tracy said, pointing at the Pagan shop as if trying to prove something. He threw his arms over the roof of the car and looked at her. "We should go in."
