Kat and Hauk had spent the afternoon shopping for him. They had discussed possible locations for the date, but agreed that they both needed to check their respective calendars before they did the "auction" date. Several hours and shops later, they loaded the bags into her car and then walked to a nearby tavern to get an afternoon snack and a drink.
On their way back to the car, Kat saw a few shops that had sales going on, so she drug Hauk into them with her. "Hauk! I can't pass up a shoe sale like this!
" However, about an hour later, his eyes were about to glaze over. She was talking to the saleslady like they were old friends and he was wondering just
what the difference was between the two different pairs of black shoes she had on.
She looked at him, then back to the saleslady and they both laughed, the saleslady giving Kat a knowing look.
Four pairs of shoes later, the two of them finally arrive back at MW. Unloading the car, Hauk went to make sure he could get in, and did the security measures. Successful, he unlocked the door and they took the bags, his and hers, to her bedroom before heading to the kitchen to figure out something to eat.
