Jake entered the cool grocery store and pulled out a crumpled list. His footsteps echoed around the aisles as he walked up and down each one. He looked at no one, had a neautral expression on his face, and scanned the shelves quickly, never letting his eyes linger. Once a clerck came over and asked him, "Say, can I help ye sonny?" Jake just shook his head "No, I'm fine thanks." and walked past him. A few things he would drop into the cart, not noticing whether the soup can fell on the bread or the eggs slid off the cereal. Somehow nothing broke of cracked, so it seemed he knew what he was doing. A group of people from his school stood clumped together about halfway down the frozen foods section. Jake just rolled the cart by, deciding to check it after they left. But no such luck, one of them spotted him and nudged his buddies. One of them bore similar black eyes and a scrape on his shoulder, so we will assume that was the one jake got into a fight with at school. They hurried after him, surrounding him in a matter of seconds. Jake looked at none of them, just kept rolling the cart, not seeming to care who he ran over. He had a thought suddenly, and stepped up his pace. The guy scattered realising they would not be able to do much in the shop.
After Jake had paid and tied the bags onto Rogue, who was waiting patiently outside Jake patted his neck and searched the perimeter of the wall. About 4 of the guys from earlier were waiting around a tree, as he had expected. In a couple of strides he was a few feet away from them...
Arriving back at the ranch two hourse later than when he had left, Jake loped along on Rogue up to the stable. After pulling off the groceries and putting them in the house he returned to untack Rogue. After putting him in the pasture he returned to the house and unpacked. He was bored lately, Rachel having gone to visit her friends for the weekend.
