3 A little something extra

"So, you think these *grunt* monsters can buy us anything useful?"

"I dunno Branch, is that knife you bought useful?"

"Well, yeah."

Grenade seemed a little angry at my new weapon. Whenever she saw it, she would look away and eat a snack. I asked her what I did and she said I could have bought her food with my money, but wasted it on a blade.

"I mean you can use your money however you want, but I'm starving!"

"Your stuffing your face with snacks as we speak!"

"Whatever, let's go out to eat tonight."

"Like... at a restaurant?"

"Yeah! It's a date!"

I would be a liar to say that I didn't blush, I've liked Grenade my whole life, us moving in together was a big step toward dating, or at least I thought it was. Grenade didn't think quite the same way, seeing as she treated me the exact same.

"A date?"

"Yeah! You've always wanted to go on a date with me, so why not reward you for your hard work in the dungeon?"

Oh yeah, forgot to mention that she knows I like her.

"Well I cant say no to that I guess."

We headed back into town after defeating a few more monsters and trading them in at the surface. We changed, brought some money, and found the most mediocre restaurant we could find. Well I guess it was more of a bar but whatever.

"I think I'm drunk, your gonna drive us home ok?"

"Grenade we don't own a car. And you've only had two sips of your drink."

"Oh yeah... well I'm probably gonna get drunk eventually so don't take advantage of me!"

"Take advantage of you?! Who do you think I am?!"

"Your an adventurer, a singer, and your Branch."

"I'm only two of those things."

"Your not Branch?"

"Let's just enjoy our meal."

"But, mines moving."

"What?"
