The morning sun filtered through the studio, casting golden light across the instruments scattered around. Luke, Alex, and Reggie huddled in the kitchen, whispering while Roxy slept soundly on the couch.

“We need to get her some essentials,” Luke said, running a hand through his hair. “Clothes, shoes, toiletries, and, uh… other stuff.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qMJmr8ISJ
“Other stuff?” Reggie asked, blinking in confusion.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxWubWBze9
Alex sighed. “You know—girl stuff. Period products, skincare, whatever else.” He glanced nervously at Luke. “Do we even know where to start with that?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNXFAeCFR6
Luke shrugged. “We’ll figure it out. But first, clothes. She can’t keep wearing our old band shirts.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdJdOrN72o
Reggie scratched his head. “Okay, but how do we know her size? Like... for real?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPi2GDpiSJ
Luke leaned back, looking almost smug. “I checked her clothes last night when she left them folded on the chair. Tops are small, jeans are size 26.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPwTxbqKnB
Alex blinked. “You just… checked her tags? That’s kind of weird, man.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8amljD7nLp
“Not weird,” Luke countered. “Smart. Otherwise, we’d have no idea.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gy5Xzfvho
Reggie tilted his head. “Yeah, but what about underwear? That has a size too, right?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NRfjqOOfw
Luke hesitated, his cheeks flushing slightly. “I might’ve, uh, noticed her laundry in the basket by the couch.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKstwLGjxb
Alex stared at him, half-amused, half-shocked. “You are way too observant sometimes, dude.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWzPITjlVx
“It’s not like I was snooping!” Luke defended. “I just want to make sure we get the right stuff for her. She deserves that.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4xTBqAhJI
Reggie nodded slowly. “Okay, yeah, fair. Let’s just hope we don’t totally mess this up.”

At the thrift store, Luke quickly gravitated to the racks of Y2K-inspired clothing. He grabbed a cherry-print crop top and a pair of flared jeans, holding them up proudly.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjofRHPHj0
“Think she’ll like these?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwj8I47vi9
Alex nodded, pulling out a metallic silver jacket. “Definitely her style. What about shoes?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4TpoQmeI3
Luke grabbed a pair of platform sneakers from the display. “Size six. I checked.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrqHrVeLEr
“You’re on fire today,” Alex muttered.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vaB3Xwbyn
Reggie wandered over, distracted by a rack of hats. “What about this one? It’s got flames on it!”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbkR8Ub7S4
Luke sighed, dragging Reggie back to focus. “Stay with me, man. We’ve got a list to finish.”

Their next stop was a department store. The boys shuffled awkwardly through the aisles of toiletries and feminine hygiene products, earning more than a few curious glances from shoppers.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLegyDECB1
“Okay,” Alex said, picking up a pack of pads. “These seem… normal? Right?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhRA39LCpe
Luke held up a box of tampons. “What if she uses these? We should get both.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0oMZMUvxd
Reggie blinked at the overwhelming number of options. “Why are there so many kinds? Like, wings? No wings? Heavy flow? What does any of this mean?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRMokOZLxN
“Just grab one of each,” Alex muttered, tossing items into the cart.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmaJDxqXRf
They moved on to toiletries, adding shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, and body wash. Luke grabbed a pack of hair ties and a cherry-print makeup bag for good measure.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEC9WHnefSR
When they reached the lingerie section, Luke quickly picked out a pack of underwear in Roxy’s size, his face turning red. Alex added socks and sports bras to the cart, while Reggie stood frozen, looking like he wanted the floor to swallow him.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBvrkfP1Xq
Luke hesitated in front of the bras, frowning. “She told me once she struggles to find bras that fit right. Something about being between sizes—32B or 34B, depending on the brand.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIP2C3yio92
Alex stared at him. “When did she tell you that?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DG8Kak0fG
“Last week,” Luke said, adjusting the straps on one of the bras he picked up. “She was complaining about the straps being too loose or too tight. Figured I’d better remember.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1dcjGIQws
“You’re adjusting the straps now?” Alex asked, half-laughing.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mT8vMF0FZ
Luke shot him a look. “I want to make sure it works, okay? And we should get a strapless one too, just in case she ever needs it.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4gsoeQCbU
Reggie, holding up a strapless bra, grinned. “Already ahead of you. But I’m never coming back to this section.”

Back at the studio, Roxy was sitting on the couch, strumming Luke’s guitar absently. She looked up as they walked in, her eyes widening at the sight of all the bags.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFURJpIzGnv
“What… what is all this?” she asked, standing up.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVptVufAP2
“Your new stuff,” Luke said, setting the bags down with a grin. “Clothes, shoes, toiletries, and, uh… other things you might need.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNaQGUh2PE
Roxy blinked, her face flushing. “Other things?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdu9kMFZSV
Alex coughed, his ears red. “You know… girl stuff. We grabbed everything we thought you might need.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMO8NqqKGR
Reggie nodded. “Yeah, pads, tampons, all that. It was… an experience.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiK9AlwHKR
Roxy laughed softly, her eyes glistening. “You guys didn’t have to do all this...”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXEvjL0Kge
“We wanted to,” Luke said, his tone gentle. “You deserve to have your own stuff. And don’t worry—we checked your sizes. Hope we got them right.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQrxjgYgwk
Roxy’s brows furrowed. “My sizes? How did you...?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWpMzTfHUR
Luke shrugged. “I noticed your clothes tags last night. And I remembered you mentioned your bra struggles, so we grabbed both sizes you said might work.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSXZ9NhSlY
Her face softened. “Thanks, Luke. That was... thoughtful.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XPPbblSFj
As she unpacked, Luke cleared his throat. “Hey, Roxy,” he said carefully. “About the knife…”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOg3LjkzRK5
Roxy froze, her face clouding over.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkf7Dm8DooD
“I still have it,” Luke admitted, reaching into his back pocket. “I’ll give it back to you later. When things feel a bit more settled. I just want to make sure you’re okay first, alright?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9jwgyvpYI
She nodded slowly, her voice quiet. “Okay. Thanks.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7HL8nVNew
Reggie, who had been rummaging through the bags, glanced at Luke’s pocket. “Knife? What knife?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQaVttd5df
Luke straightened, his tone casual. “Nothing important.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNF6WoLFInm
Alex gave Luke a knowing look, covering smoothly. “Oh. Right. Got it.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydvS1yGiy7
Reggie blinked, confused. “Wait, didn’t I see you grab something red yesterday?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpF1KQBR6V4
Luke shrugged. “Probably just my bandana. You know I always have one lying around.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDlOsVTUFR
Reggie grinned, his confusion fading. “Oh, yeah! That makes sense. You’re always messing with those.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloxO1XSeyS
Alex smirked. “Classic Reggie. Can’t keep track of anything for more than five seconds.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZIcx2E4sF
Reggie laughed, scratching the back of his neck. “Hey, I’ve got a lot on my mind, okay?”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaan8uIUhCM
Luke smiled subtly, relieved the topic had passed.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrf9Q6AB2D0
As Roxy held up the metallic silver jacket, her face lit up. “This is amazing. You guys really didn’t have to go all out like this.”
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCc9RpfY8V
“You’re part of the band now,” Luke said warmly. “Part of the family. And family takes care of each other.”
