When she woke up the next morning feeling rested and restless, Roz suggested they go ahead and run down the mountain to get supplies. It was early, just after dawn.

"Parker's going to be pissed."

"He may not even notice. I checked on him early this morning and he was running a bit of a fever. I gave him more pain pills and he went back to sleep almost immediately."

Mac stood in the living room, perusing Roz's shelf of books on the far wall.

"Mac, can I get you some things?"

He looked relieved and nodded his head. "I would really appreciate it. I doubt I'll be allowed back into my apartment in the near future."

Andromeda agreed but she gave him a smile. "I'll take care of everything. If you can write down your sizes it would make it easier on me."

The big man gave her a single nod and moved to Roz's window desk, looking for pen and paper. He jotted a few things down then handed it to her. Andromeda tucked it into her pocket. "If you can watch for Parker and let him know where we went, I would appreciate it."

Mac nodded. "Of course."

Roz had already started her truck and they took off as soon as Andromeda was strapped in. It was easier going down the mountain than up, but both ways were exceptionally bumpy. By the time they reached the bottom Andromeda felt like a milkshake.

Though it was a little farther away, Roz drove them to a bigger town so that they would be a little less noticeable. They went to a Kohl's and found most of the clothes they needed, even the big and tall they needed for Mac. Then they headed to a grocery store to stock up. Andromeda even found Mac a couple of paperback books to read. By the time Roz filled up at a gas station, several hours had gone by. After making one last stop, they headed back to Roz's mountain.

Parker was standing on the front porch when they pulled up and Andromeda didn't like the expression on his face. He looked livid.

"Why didn't you tell me where you were going?"

Andromeda frowned as she circled the vehicle to the back. "Well, you were ass out asleep, which you desperately needed. No one has followed us here and we needed supplies."

One hard hand wrapped around her arm. "I'm supposed to be protecting you."

She hadn't even realized he'd come down the steps.

"No, you're supposed to be protecting him." She tipped her chin at Mac, who had come down the steps to help them unload. "He's the linchpin in this case, not me."

Parker scowled but she could see he agreed with her.

"Here." She handed him the stack of pizzas. "Can you carry those in?"

Parker tried to stay grumpy, but it was hard. She knew he loved pizza. Especially this kind.

"Did you get a Founder's Favorite?" he growled.

"Yes."

She waited to grin until he turned back to the steps. Roz caught her eye and shook her head. "You two already sound like you're married.
