Khristian nodded and pointed to his car proudly, considering last time he saw Peyton, he had been using the "soccer mom" family van. HeuSeoh returned the hug and smiled, "Okay, and you're my crazy girl." He responded, glad he didn't pause, not sure exactly what he'd call her after that.

Peyton's face lit up with happiness at the sight of Khristian's car. "Thank you so much," she said, breathing a sigh of relief. "It normally takes me about an hour, but I shall try my best to hurry." She held out her hand for the keys.
"Crazy girl and borderline dork?" Morgan asked, still unable to control her laughter. "Wow, that sounds really romantic, huh?" She took his hand in hers and began walking. "Can I at least get a hint about this super exciting present?"

Khristian smiled, "No worries, we can listen to music or something, too... If you want." He told her, walking her to his car.
HeuSeoh thought about it for a moment, "Um... no. I'm bad at giving away hints. You'd probably figure it out." He told her, putting a finger to his lips as if saying it's a secret. "He put his hands into his pockets, "Oh here, I have a hint. It's something you'll really like." He said, sticking out his tongue afterwords.

Completely dumbfounded, Peyton looked up at Khristian. "W-we?" she asked. "You want to come too?" She hadn't really expected him to join her, despite the fact that it was also his car. Still trying to grasp the fact that he enjoyed her company, she nodded her head and followed him to the car.
"That's not fair!" Morgan exclaimed, pouting in frustration. "I like all kinds of things. I like candy, puppies, dancing, soccer, skateboarding, hula hoops, and other really fun and exciting things." She stuck her tongue back out at him. "You're no fun."

Khristian smiled and opened his car door for her, "Yes, we. Unless you prefer to be alone?" He said, adding the last part as an after-thought.
HeuSeoh laughed, "Well, I'll give you one more hint. It's the same subject matter as one of the things you listed."

Peyton shook her head and got in the car. "I-it's okay," she said, still a bit puzzled. "After all, it's your car." Despite her reluctance around him, she actually enjoyed hanging out with him. There was something about comforting about him, something that she couldn't quite put her finger on.
Morgan's face lit up again. "Really?" she asked excitedly. She mentally went back over her list. "You bought me a candy and a puppy?"

Khristian smiled and got into the driver's seat. "It's not much, but it's better than the family van I shared with the family in MABTown." He told her with a laugh, his hands rubbing the steering wheel proudly.
HeuSeoh laughed and shook his head, his hair flipping back and forth with each move. "Nope. Neither of those." He told her, wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her close. "Although I'll admit it's not very romantic either."

Peyton sighed and sat back in the seat, relieved to be away from the frightening throng of people. "I think your car is quite nice," she said, smiling at him. She glanced at the window, wondering if she should have taken him up on his earlier offer to go someplace else.
Morgan giggled and wrapped her arms around his waist, enjoying the closeness. "Awwww, but it's a present from my boyfriend that I like very much, so it is romantic." She ran back through the list again, trying to figure out what wouldn't usually be classified as romantic. "Skateboard?"

Khristian smiled proudly, "Well, thank you then. I bought it myself, you know." He said, still looking just as proud, looking over "his baby" for anything that could embarrass him or otherwise bring down his good mood. Maybe, if I can get her to go somewhere else with me, I'll tell her how I really feel instead of just always saying she's interesting... He thought to himself determined. "Nope." HeuSeoh replied, smiling at her comment. "I don't think you'll ever guess it, so just wait until we get to my place. We're almost there, I swear." He told her confidently, then pointed to a white and gray house near the end of the next block, "right there." He told her.

"Wow," Peyton said, clearly impressed. She didn't know much about cars in general, but she really did like his car, despite the fact that it would have been classified as old to most people. "I've never really had my own car before. I always had to share with my sisters, well mostly Taylor." When she'd first learned how to drive, she also had to share a car with Madison, but she was such a recluse in those days. Back then, she rarely had the urge to go anywhere.
Morgan got a bit jumpy as his house appeared slowly into view. She knew she had no reason to be nervous, but she couldn't help it. "Your house is really pretty," she said, trying to use her excitement about the gift to fight her nervousness.

Khristian couldn't stop smiling. He bit his lip slightly, "so... are you still up for going somewhere else?" He asked slowly.
"Thank you," HeuSeoh replied. "We were lucky to find it, I think. With all the displaced people coming here, I heard from mom it was a little difficult." He admitted. "We almost moved back to California. Or Korea." He laughed, "Mom couldn't decide."

Despite her earlier hesitancy, Peyton found herself immediately nodding her head. "That would be alright," she said. There was no use in trying to find Madison now; the crowd had pretty much swallowed her whole. Plus, she was starting to relax more now. A change of scenery would probably do wonders for her nerves.
Morgan continued down the street, her arm still wrapped around HeuSeoh's waist. "I'm so glad you moved here. If you moved somewhere else, then I'd never ever see you again and I'd be really, really sad about it." She tried not to think of the possibility; it was just too depressing for her.

Khristian smiled and put the keys in the ignition and turned on the car. "Are you gonna text your sister later?" He asked, turning down the Chinese song he was listening to before it could start blasting through the speakers, leaving it as a low background noise. HeuSeoh stopped and gave her a big hug, "I don't know what I would've done either. Being long distance from you would have been too hard to bear..." He told her honestly, kissing her lightly on the top of the head. He returned to their original position and continued, "But let's not think about that, okay?" He said with a grin.

"Yeah I suppose I should text her," Peyton said, realizing that she should have texted her in the first place. Madison knew all about her agoraphobia; she would have definitely come and gotten her. As the car started, she sat back, curiously wondering where they were going and slowly bopping her head to the beat of the foreign techno music.
A little surprised at his sudden hug, Morgan stopped in her tracks and hugged him in return. "Alright, I'll shut up about it," she said, blushing as he kissed her. I guess kissing on the forehead isn't bad luck.... "The important thing is that we're together right now and you're going to give me a shiny new present!"

Khristian was about to back out the car when he paused and laughed lightly, "Where should we go?" He asked Peyton lightly.
HeuSeoh grinned, leading her the rest of the way to his house. "Well, a part of it is shiny." He said playfully, opening the door. "Mom? I'm home... I brought-" I cut him off, peeking my head out of the living room. "You must be Morgan?" I asked, looking to my son for confirmation, to which he nodded. I smiled, "It's a pleasure to finally meet you. I hope you'll take good care of my little boy." "Mom..." HeuSeoh warned, raising an eyebrow. "I'm not even the youngest boy, why do you always do this?" "Because you're my favorite." I replied pointedly, but then laughed it off, joking. HeuSeoh leaned in close to Morgan, "You'll fit in fine, I told you." He whispered to her, his voice monotone.
