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.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJYiULUFQf
“Other stuff?” Reggie asked, blinking in confusion.
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EsZdjvup1
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?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcaGsmP3Zs
Luke shrugged. “We’ll figure it out. But first, clothes. She can’t keep wearing our old band shirts.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVofs0bhCXX
Reggie scratched his head. “Okay, but how do we know her size? Like... for real?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxPb2fS2oe
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.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWlYyuY5JH
Alex blinked. “You just… checked her tags? That’s kind of weird, man.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlwdeu8OLx
“Not weird,” Luke countered. “Smart. Otherwise, we’d have no idea.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPI95R3Nf44
Reggie tilted his head. “Yeah, but what about underwear? That has a size too, right?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7vZctGIdh
Luke hesitated, his cheeks flushing slightly. “I might’ve, uh, noticed her laundry in the basket by the couch.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWIqEVpOud
Alex stared at him, half-amused, half-shocked. “You are way too observant sometimes, dude.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOis3dK2IJR
“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.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBFIAdG7Nc
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.
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3SmCa5j1X
“Think she’ll like these?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlcflbF4A9
Alex nodded, pulling out a metallic silver jacket. “Definitely her style. What about shoes?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5Lav3VTul
Luke grabbed a pair of platform sneakers from the display. “Size six. I checked.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1mZKu9OIN
“You’re on fire today,” Alex muttered.
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfglBxw7bw
Reggie wandered over, distracted by a rack of hats. “What about this one? It’s got flames on it!”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdr4wCr84Z
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.
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVUUc6QOnc
“Okay,” Alex said, picking up a pack of pads. “These seem… normal? Right?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Rx2Tvlscg
Luke held up a box of tampons. “What if she uses these? We should get both.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdVfaByGY4
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?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQjwUicrvs
“Just grab one of each,” Alex muttered, tossing items into the cart.
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe1Ld7WTqN
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.
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVOHRXrzU6
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.
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObeTkRju3W
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.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBU7TCdZzQd
Alex stared at him. “When did she tell you that?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCmsmBWTSR
“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.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIQTKmP0jy
“You’re adjusting the straps now?” Alex asked, half-laughing.
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzfO04mA9k
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.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdxpp659QU
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.
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkBtoolA4a
“What… what is all this?” she asked, standing up.
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLVy6x1vwA
“Your new stuff,” Luke said, setting the bags down with a grin. “Clothes, shoes, toiletries, and, uh… other things you might need.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GfU5FL9aM
Roxy blinked, her face flushing. “Other things?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRApWeslo0E
Alex coughed, his ears red. “You know… girl stuff. We grabbed everything we thought you might need.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrD9qMReK4
Reggie nodded. “Yeah, pads, tampons, all that. It was… an experience.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqN6OpEe6s
Roxy laughed softly, her eyes glistening. “You guys didn’t have to do all this...”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsabCkSOxpk
“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.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkPH6aOQfU
Roxy’s brows furrowed. “My sizes? How did you...?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRiGlP9dl4
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.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0VvZWzGq2
Her face softened. “Thanks, Luke. That was... thoughtful.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRG5ONZABK
As she unpacked, Luke cleared his throat. “Hey, Roxy,” he said carefully. “About the knife…”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sTyTIYYCI
Roxy froze, her face clouding over.
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIgCq7OpYP
“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?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3V0NbPibC
She nodded slowly, her voice quiet. “Okay. Thanks.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohzF8iZ63G
Reggie, who had been rummaging through the bags, glanced at Luke’s pocket. “Knife? What knife?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPl5P5FFK7
Luke straightened, his tone casual. “Nothing important.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJoSKR1hrK
Alex gave Luke a knowing look, covering smoothly. “Oh. Right. Got it.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnguH7mWdPH
Reggie blinked, confused. “Wait, didn’t I see you grab something red yesterday?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIuVNRsjpl
Luke shrugged. “Probably just my bandana. You know I always have one lying around.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrFKUvgtbY
Reggie grinned, his confusion fading. “Oh, yeah! That makes sense. You’re always messing with those.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYQFwxznVU
Alex smirked. “Classic Reggie. Can’t keep track of anything for more than five seconds.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMj3Pe2xDu
Reggie laughed, scratching the back of his neck. “Hey, I’ve got a lot on my mind, okay?”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Vq2Ja9rSV
Luke smiled subtly, relieved the topic had passed.
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa52q39NwXK
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.”
292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXLQ7OnCz9
“You’re part of the band now,” Luke said warmly. “Part of the family. And family takes care of each other.”
