Determination -For me and lovely Thyme-

[Kuso]

Akikazu okada, A man in his early 20s was out shopping this morning. No matter how much he hated going he had to go. Living on his own was a pain in the but. It sucked even worse since he had been bound to a wheel chair for most of his life. Not because he lost his leg or anything. Its just that they never worked to begin with. How ever on to the story.

"Damn why do they always put the stuff i need on the top shelf." he said as he was trying to reach a box of cereal. He was determind though and no one had stopped to help him. Kazu always had a hard time with this process.

Kimni Takadashi was doing his weekly morning shopping at the grocery store. He always had off work Fridays and even then, mostly worked from home. He was in advertising.

He placed some fresh fruit in his basket before going down the canned goods isle. He needed some broth. When he got to the isle, he noticed Akikazu struggling to reach one of the cans on the top shelf and couldn't help but offer his assistance.

"I know I'm not very tall, but would you like me to help you?" he asked sweetly. He usually didn't talk to strangers, but this man needed help and was also very attractive.

[Kuso]

"Please that would be kind of you." he said as he looked at him. He wasnt one to ask help but he was cute and nice to him. "Its one of those things that suck about being in a wheelchair." He told him as he smiled. "Could i offer you some lunch, I know its not much but i figured i would at least offer." he said as he looked at him.

"That would be lovely, thank you. I was planning on going to lunch right after I get done shopping." Kimni smiled at the man before turning to the shelf. He stood on his toes and struggled to reach it.

It was obvious that the man needed help. His shirt had risen over his stomach and back as he stretched to reach the can. The site was very appealing to a man who happened to be shopping also.

"Need some help?" he asked as he handed Kimni the can. "I guess your crippled boyfriend can't help you. Why don't you come home with me?"

Kimni turned red from embarrassment and anger. How could someone be so rude? He huffed and turned around. The man smirked and chuckled. "So the little one is fiesty? What, your cripple can't handle it?"

[Kuso]

He looked at him. "I dont care who you are but you shouldn't call people names."Kazu said as he looked at him. "you may think i am weak but dont judge a book by its cover." He said adamantly.

[Lovely Thyme]

"Just ignore him. We can finish shopping in piece. He isn't worth it." Kimni told the man in the wheelchair. He put the can in his own basket, intending on helping the man with the rest of his shopping while also doing his own.

"Whatever. Push your cripple away." The man called. Kimni huffed again as he pushed Kazu further away.

[Kuso]

"He was rude too both you and i, are you ok. Oh i forgot to introduce my self how silly of me. My name is AkiKazu, but most call me kazu for short." He said as he looked up to him

[Lovely Thyme]

"I'm fine, just a bit exasperated. My name is Kimni, but I prefer Kimi. It's nice to meet you." Kimni said with a small laugh.

"Do you have a grocery list? I can get everything if you would just like to roll along side me?"

[Kuso]

He smiled and looked at him before handing him his list. "sorry its a little long I need alot of stuff." He said as he looked at him.

[Lovely Thyme]

Kimni laughed softly as he looked at the long list of groceries. The man barely had enough room in the carrier of his wheelchair to carry everything that he would need.

"This isn't too bad. Here, you take the basket." he said, setting the basket he was holding in Kuza's lap. "I guess we should start in this aisle."
