Dane hadn't been able to walk around town yet, or even shop yet. Even though he hated shopping, he still needed some basic things. Being new and moving in was a hassle all on its own. He had been eating out at fast food, unpacking, working and going to college. His life was a mess right now and he finally had the day off. It was Saturday, no work and he didn't have class till late Sunday night. His unpacking and his apartment was looking a lot better and it seemed like boxes were disappearing in mid-air. Which made him feel like he was getting somewhere. All the activity he was doing was just making him want to sit down and rest, but of course he kept going. He loved having the homey feeling in a house or apartment for him, so Dane decided to go looking around and shopping.

Driving into town didn't take that long, his apartment was close. He could have walked there, but going shopping he needed his car. He wasn't' sure what all he needed yet. He also was thinking of adopting a dog, and he knew he would need some dog food, a bed, and toys for the poor mutt. He was in town in a flash and easily parallel parked along the street. Dane got out of his car and walked along the sidewalk, reading the signs as he passed. He did walk far until he came along a grocery shop. He had needed food and he never really liked fast food. It was just easy at the time, he enjoyed cooking actually.

Walking in he went over and grabbed a shopping cart, knowing he needed all kinds of food. He had nothing except a box of cereal, milk, bread and peanut butter. Sighing, he went off to the first isle. The first isle had hygienic stuff in it, so he decided to grab some tooth paste and soap. He had the rest, that was one thing he made sure he had at the beginning of his journey. He walked up and down the isles, his cart getting full and more full. Gathering all the things he wanted and needed. He was glad he just got payed on Friday and had enough money to buy all this food. Though for a single guy living alone, it was just what he needed, not food for a family.

As he looked at the meat, trying to find a pack of chicken that would feed himself and not a pack that had 15 million pieces in it. It was the almost the last thing he needed, then he'd go to a pet store and grab some stuff there. He grabbed a pack that had two chicken breast in it. As he turned to place a pack he had choose he ran right into someone. "I'm sorry!" He said as he reached down to get the chicken that had fell out of his hand and onto the ground. He stood up right, looking at the person in front of him.

As Belle stood at the meat section of the grocery store. Then suddenly she felt an impact, and she heard, "I'm sorry". She looked to she how had bumped into her. The new guy into town, since this was a small town news got around quickly. "It's okay" She smiled. She searched her mind for what she heard his name was. "Dane?" She asked pretty sure of herself. She was fairly new to this town as well, but she had settled in and gotten to know everyone of the town. As the manger of the ranch she pretty much knew everyone's name. She waited to see if she was right or not, hoping she was she smiled at him.

Muse: None
OoC: Sorry for such a short post hard starting out

Dane looked up his eyes meeting with a girls blue eyes. She was very pretty, and had beautiful brown hair. It was put back into a pony tail, and he guessed she would have looked better with it down. Dane smiled softly, straiting up and fixing his shirt lightly. "It's okay" She said. He noticed her voice was pretty also, pretty voice to go with a pretty girl. "Dane?" She asked. His name, how did she know his name? It was a small town, so maybe she had heard of him. Dane nodded, "Yeah, that's me. How did you know my name? He asked calmly. There was a million ways a person could know your name in a small town. He had to just get use to it he guessed.

He places the chicken in his cart and started moving toward the front of the store. He made sure the girl was following him, but he still needed to check out before his ice cream melted. He wondered if the girl needed anything else, or if she was ready to check out too. "So whats your name? And I should check out soon before my stuff goes back" He chuckled softly. "Do you need anything else or are you ready to check out? I want to hear more about how you know me.." He smiled softly and waited for her reply. He still had stuff he wanted to do today. Though he could always wait, he needed some friends in this town.

Belle smiled, "Oh, well this is a small town, it doesn't take long to get famous around here" Her smile faded a bit. She looked back to the meats, and then she heard him ask her name, "Annabelle Archer, but you can call me Belle." She said taking a deep breathe. She looked down at her basket, checking off each thing in her mind, Bread-Check, Toilet Paper-Check, Paper Towels-Check, New Chews for Chewy-Check, and then looked back up at him, "I have everything, I'm ready to check out." She smiled slightly. She followed him to the check-out.

Dane laughed softly. "Yeah I guess so." He noticed her pause for a second and look over what she got. Then when she said she got everything he gladly walked along to the check-out. His things too a bit long to check out. He had so much and she had only a little. Oh well, that's what you get when you have little to no food. It would do him good to cook some meals for himself. As they got to the line he let her go first, knowing it would take him longer to put everything on the little black belt and everything. He watched as she payed for her stuff and he piled all this stuff onto the belt. Then took the bags and piled them back into his cart.

"So have any plans?" He asked on their way out of the store. His car was parked pretty much out front and he stuffed all the white plastic bags of food into his car. Then turned to Belle smiling. He had to make some kind of plans with this girl. Why not? He didn't know anyone so it was nice to have someone to talk to for once, he was pretty lonely at home. "I don't know many people, so maybe we could go do something sometime. He smiled softly. Though, he still had to find a pet store and get his food home. He wondered how he'd manage that but shrugged it off. It was pretty cold outside so his food would be okay in his car for a bit. The only thing that would go bad was the chicken he dropped on the ground and some ice cream.

Belle was starting to like this new guy. He was really nice, and she wasn't a fan of just meeting men. She picked up her two white bags waiting for Dane. She studied him and looked over him, again and again. The thought of her sister in the car scared Belle a little, and didn't want her to meet Dane.

"Ummm....." She thought, "No, I don't think so." As they walked to their cars, Belle notcied that his car was right next to her truck, the one that her sister was in. She opened up the back door on the passenger side and placed the white bags on the seat. Then the nightmare came.

"So...." Jamie stopped her sentence when she saw the guy standing behind her sister. "who's this?" Jamie smiled slyly at her sister. Straining her neck over the seat to get a better look at the man. He looked older than Belle and quite handsom.

Belle gave her sister the Sit down or you die! look. She didn't want to be embarrassed by her little sister, in front of a guy she just meant. "His name is Dane, he is the new guy in town, now sit." She whispered the last part quietly to her sister, so that only she could hear. Belle turned back to Dane, "That would be nice" She smiled.

Muse;; Sisterly love
OoC;; Introducing....-drum roll- Jamie

Dane smiled and closed his car door. Then turned to follow Belle to her car. She had two bags and he was about to grab one for her since it was usually hard to find parking spots right in front of a store. But she stopped at the truck right in front of his car. He followed behind her, and leaned against her truck slightly as she put the bags in the passenger side seat. "Good, good." He said. He was glad she had no plans and hoped maybe they'd be able to do something.

"Who's this?" Dane could hear a voice coming from car and then a face looked up over the seat at him. He smiled slightly at her and then looked at Belle. "His name is Dane, he is the new guy in town." Dane waved slightly, and kind of awkwardly. The girl sat down in the seat and he straitened up from leaning on her truck. "That would be nice."

He stood awkwardly for a second, thinking. "Do you want to do something now.. or I could um give you my number? He smiled at her brightly. "But I need to pick up some pet stuff.. and get this stuff home too. He felt bad, he really wanted to do something with this girl. He wondered if she'd be willing to come over to his house, he could make her dinner even.. only if she was willing.

Belle closed the truck door, not giving her sister the oppurnity to speak again. Belle's thoughts went back to her sister who could easily roll her window down and poke her finger in places it wasn't wanted. She snapped out of her zone and her gaze went back to Dane. "Yes, your number would be good, I have some things that I need to get done as soon as possible." Belle smiled thinking back to the ranch. She tried to sound like she didn't need to go right this instant but she guessed it is how it came out.

Jamie sat in the truck and cracked the window, trying to listen to what her big sister was up to. She chuckled at the words that spilled out of her sister's mouth. "Yes, your number would be good, I have some things to do as soon as possible" She mimiced her sister's words. Jamie shook her head.

Belle stood there not knowing what do or say next. She wasn't really good with words, so she waited to see if Dane would say anything else. She didn't want to be rude and just drive off without him finishing what was on his mind, and she still needed his number.

Dane smiled and thought for a second, he turned around and opened his car door, grabbing a pen and piece of paper and scribbled his number on it. His hand writing wasn't the best, but she would have been able to read it. He turned around and walked back to her, handing her the number. He felt kind of weird doing this, but he needed friends. He was glad she was willing to take his number, and hoped she wasn't to freaked out about him. He wondered if she was just being nice and if she would actually call him. "Call whenever, if i don't answer I'll get back to you when i can. I take college classes and work, busy a lot.. you know. He laughed softly. He noticed her sister mimicking her and smiled.

"I grew up with a large family. I know how they are, don't worry. Though you never notice how much you miss them till you move half way across the country." He smiled, he did miss his family a lot. "Well bye, hope to see you soon. He turn around to go to his car and let her go. She seemed to have things that needed to be done also. He though, needed to know were a good pet store was. "Belle!" He called to her from his car door to her. He didn't really yell, but said it loudly to get her attention. "Do you know were a good pet store is? He asked smiling softly. He wondered if she liked animals..

Belle gladly took the paper from Dane and read over the number. She smiled at him and nodded at what he said. She was glad to have another friend. "Yes, I suppose, I am her guardian and so I have to watch everything she does, so that I'm not to blame for it." She smiled slightly. She walked to the driver's side and opened the door. She climbed up into the seat and looked at Jamie, Belle shook her head and sighed.


Jamie looked at her sister, "Oooooo, he is cute" She smiled at her sister, just as Jamie went down to roll her window up and heard Dane's voice calling for her sister. Jamie rolled down the window and called back "There is a Pet Shop called The Wonderful World of Pets about two blocks up." She smiled and waved as she rolled her window up.

Belle slapped her forehead with the palm of her hand. She wanted to smack Jamie in the head as well, but knew Dane was still watching. She just smiled and started up her truck. She drove off remembering the piece of paper in her hand.
