”I can’t say I don’t agree on that..” She said, tilting her head to he side while giving him a rather naughty look. That probably spoke more than whether she would say it. She was really going to pull a prank on him later, perhaps give him a sweat by walking out with the wallet. She would come back, though. But she just wanted to see him panic.

”Watch it.” She warned as he stuck his tongue out, attempting to grab it.
Her relationship with Neal just felt so natural, out of everything she had gone through; he was the only good thing. Well, her relationship with Ingrid had been good too, until she turned out to be a complete nutjob. Hooray for escaped mental patients.

Even kissing Neal seemed to ignite some kind of spark in her chest, that would burst into butterflies whenever she looked at him. Emma watched him, her cheeks becoming slightly rosy just enjoying their happiness.

”Thank God..” She then said, about Neal talking tot he owner. ”I’m pretty sure that if I was the one doing the talking, I’d call the steering wheel a wheel thingy.” She joked. Though when Neal asked if she remembered the day they met, Emma hid her face behind her hands.
”Please don’t bring that up, I can’t believe that actually happened.” God, she had felt so embarrassed for stealing an already stolen car. With someone in it!
”I mean I’m glad to have met you, but could it have been more awkward?”

The owner met up with them, and looked at the yellow bug.
”What can I do for you youth today?” The man seemed like a generally friendly guy, so that was a good thing.

“Of course you can’t because you know it’s true.” Neal said, with a small smile. He could tell certain things about Emma, just by the looks she gave him. It was the best way to sense when he was close to being in trouble, and, telling him to stop. Neal was pretty sure he was close to right now, but, not close enough to make him stop just yet.

“Well, I can’t exactly do that. My eyes are here, and, my tongue’s down there.” Neal pointed between his tongue and eyes before smiling at Emma. Neal knew that Emma was the best thing that ever happened to him, and, the only real good thing he had left. Yes, he’d had a good thing going with Ingrid, in fact she had been willing to adopt him, but, he’d gotten a tad scared, and, he had run off.

When the two of them kissed, Neal felt something inside of him that he’d never felt with anyone else before. A spark that warmed his heart, and, always gave him the best feeling inside.

“Don’t worry about it, I’ll do all the talking that needs to be done” Neal said, with a small smirk. He noticed Emma’s reaction when he mentioned about the day they’d met. “I can. Some people just don’t look when entering places.”

Neal looked at Emma, before nodding at Emma’s question. “Well, actually it could’ve. You could’ve actually stolen the car with the actual owner inside.”

Watching the garage owner come over, Neal decided to take over the conversation like Emma had asked him to. “Well, we’ve kind of got a problem with the tail-light, I think the bulb’s burnt out.” Neal looked at the owner before turning back to Emma and the bug.

Emma chuckled, sending him a playful wink when he smiled at her. She wasn’t anywhere near being annoyed by his actions, to be honest, she found them rather cute. She would definitely make it obvious to him when he’d go too far. Emma wasn’t a girl to be put in place, she would show teeth AND bite.
She sighed when Neal said that he couldn’t watch it. ‘it’ obviously being his tongue. “You’re such a jerk sometimes.” She said, shaking her head at him. “Next time I’ll bite your tongue off.” Emma added, with a tone of warning added.
Of course, she wouldn’t literally do that. Come on, she wasn’t a bloody cannibal.
Emma groaned when Neal said that some people just don’t look, referring to the fact that she hadn’t when she tried to steal the yellow bug. “Come on, you were wearing your hoodie, how was I supposed to know? Plus, admit it; if you didn’t like me, you would have tried to kick my ass.” She said ‘tried’ because she knew Neal wouldn’t have won that battle.
“Didn’t I already steal the owner in the actual car?” She mused, leaning her body against his.
The owner of the garage shop nodded. It was a common problem, and it was easy to fix. “Alright, the only problem is that there are a few cars in front of you. So I think you’ll have to come back in an hour or two.” The owner said.
Emma nodded, figuring it was no problem since they were planning on having breakfast anyway. Perhaps a bit of a cheaper breakfast, but she didn’t really care about how cheap it would be.

Neal could sense the moment when people started getting annoyed with him, and, he wasn’t quite there yet with Emma. Of course knowing him he’d be there soon. Neal didn’t really think that Emma would be one to let him annoy her. He wouldn’t have still been smiling right now if he had crossed that line. “Yeah, I know I am. It’s one of my many skills, but, it’s also part of the guy you met that day.” Neal smirked softly at Emma. “Oh, trust me I know”

It was obvious she wouldn’t really do that, but, Neal liked kidding around with her.

Neal couldn’t help himself when it came to the comment about not looking before breaking into the bug. “I wasn’t wearing my hoodie, I was sleeping under it. There is a bit of a difference there. Yeah, that’s true. I can tell who I don’t like.” Neal knew that was right, with some of the people he’d met he could automatically tell he didn’t like them. He wasn’t sure he would have actually kicked her ass, but, he probably would’ve reported her to that cop after all.

“Yeah, in a way you did.” Neal said, as he placed a kiss on the top of her head when she leaned into him.

Focusing all of his current attention on the garage owner, Neal listened as he spoke and told them there was a wait. “Yeah, that, that’s fine.” Neal said, before standing up, and, turning his attention to Emma.

They were getting breakfast anyway, and, luckily it was on the garage owner. He hadn’t stole enough for it to be obvious, but, it would definitely be enough to cover breakfast for the two of them. Maybe, not the breakfast they expected, but, it would still be alright.

Emma shook her head at him, Neal was such a dork. “Yeah, very skillful, Cassidy.” She replied with a chuckle. Taking his hand and entangling her fingers with his. She didn’t want to waste any more time at this darn garage, she wanted toe at; she could eat a whole horse if she wanted to.
“Yeah yeah..” She muttered under her beath, closing her eyes when Neal kissed the top of her head. In some way she was glad Neal liked her, imagine if he hadn’t. So Emma leaned closer to Neal and pressed a light kiss on his lips, glad to have him around
So, then Emma gave the garage owner the car keys and started tugging Neal along. “No more of how we met, please.” She said, putting one finger in her ear so she wouldn’t hear Neal talk about the day they met. She was still embarrassed by it.
Emma looked around, to see if they could find a nice little restaurant where they could eat something. She did want something good, though, not just a mere sandwich.
“Warn me if you see anything that catches your interest. I could even eat a pizza because I’m that hungry.”

“I know” Neal said, with a small smirk. Neal wrapped his hands in Emma’s as she laced their fingers together, they just finish up in this garage quickly and then head to get some food. Neal was hungry, and, he could eat so much, especially since they had the money to do it.

Neal kept Emma close to him as he reflected on their meeting. Neal would’ve done something completely different if he hadn’t liked Emma. He smiled softly as Emma kissed him, before looking around the garage.

He chuckled as Emma dragged him along out of the garage. Neal chuckled at Emma’s response. “Ok fine, no more talk about it.” Neal didn’t know why she didn’t like hearing it, he found it funny. Even if Emma didn’t agree.

Neal looked at the restaurants that were around, looking for one that would have something good. Not just a small item that they could get anywhere.

“Trust me I will. I could too, surprisingly heists can make you very hungry.”

Emma squeezed Neal’s hand gently while she was guiding him back to the mainstreets. She wasn’t sure what she would like to eat, and at this point she didn’t really care.
Staying close to Neal, she observed the restaurants and then her gaze fell on a little bed and breakfast right across the street. It looked fairly busy, not to mention the smell of bacon filled her nostrills.
“What about that place?” Emma asked, smiling when she noticed he had stopped talking about their first meeting. She didn’t want to feel embarrassed any longer, not to mention the discomfort that she felt when that meeting occured.

“The thrill of swiping is just so addicting.” Emma responded with a giggle, looking both left and right so they could cross the street. Emma began; “That place really smells nice.”
Her stomach rumbled rather loudly, and she blushed just a little. After breakfast, they should probably try and find a somewhat cheap hotel they could spend the night in.

Neal stayed close to Emma, as she led him away from the garage. There was a lot of choices of where to eat, and, he didn’t quite care where.

He glanced around the many possible options for where they could eat, as he kept his arm around Emma’s shoulder. Suddenly he smelt something delicious in the air, coming from one of the local buildings. It was bacon, that was a smell he’d recognise almost anywhere. Neal smiled at Emma’s question, must be her way of making sure the topic stayed off of their first meeting. But, it was also a legit one.

“Yes it definitely is.” Neal said, smiling. There didn’t seem to be a lot coming, so crossing the street was safe. Neal looked at Emma and nodded “Actually you know what? That place sounds great to me.” Neal knew that after breakfast, they would figure out where to stay for the night. Since having a break from sleeping in their car might be nice, even for just one night. “Come on” Neal said, as he dragged Emma towards the Bed and Breakfast across the street.

Emma managed to giggle playfully when Neal started dragging her along to the bed and breakfast. This proved that he was just as hungry as she was. "Knowing you, this would mean you'd be capable of eating a piece of chewing gum off the streets." She joked, crossing the street along with Neal.
She managed to take a peek inside the restaurant before they went inside, noticing there were a few people in. They probably slept the night there.

When they entered the building, Emma took in the scent of bacon and eggs, the usual breakfast that was served in the morning. But for some reason, she felt like getting pancakes for breakfast instead.

The waiter guided them to their seats, and she took out the menu. Seeing several good looking meals.
Curiously, she glanced at Neal; sort of spying on him really. Watching him brought a smile to her face.
"So, what are you getting?" She said, her eyes not averting from Neal.

Neal continued to gently drag Emma towards the Bed and Breakfast. That's where their food was, and, he was hungry. "Well, I've actually done that before when I was desperate." Neal said, smiling softly. Glancing into the window, Neal saw that there already seemed to be people in there.

He took in the scent as the two of them entered the Diner. It smelt amazing inside the place, and, the scent of all of the different foods filled the air.

Neal followed the waiter as they were led to their seats in the Bed and Breakfast. Picking up his menu, he scanned what was on there. Alot of choices looked good there. Neal looked up at Emma, and, smiled as he saw Emma looking at him too. Neal always smiled when Emma was around, he couldn't help it. "Hmm, not sure. Probably one of the specials. How about you?"

Emma snorted, shaking her head. "Please don't tell me I've kissed a guy who ate chewing gum off the streets!" She exclaimed in a joking manner. She wouldn't blame him if he had, but; the thought of it was rather nauseating.
When she noticed Neal was looking back at her, she winked teasingly. "I'll have what you'll be having." At this point, she could eat anything that was brought to her. Even a piece of chewing gum on a plate. Emma chuckled to herself, which probably looked a little bit odd; she was just having an inside joke.

"Probably the one with the two eggs, two pancakes and 2 pieces of bacon." She said, reading through the menu again. Her stomach roared in delight just because it sound so tasty.
"And probably an orange juice. Oh that's something I haven't had in a while." She moaned pitifully. "But we need to have enough money for the hotel tonight, not to mention the car. So.. if the pancakes are too much I could go for the toast with eggs and fruit." She added.

Neal chuckled softly at Emma's reaction. "Fine I won't tell you." Neal had been desperate one time, and, the gum had been right there.

Seeing Emma's reaction made Neal smile softly at her before winking back at her. "I guess we both want to 'feast out'." Neal wouldn't complain about whatever was brought to him. He was hungry enough to eat anything right now. Neal smiled softly as Emma chuckled, he just loved hearing her laugh.

"That sounds good to me. Very good actually." Neal glanced at the menu with just the thought of getting food like that.

"I haven't had juice in a long time either." Neal sighed sadly. "Don't worry about any of it trust me" Neal said, and, shook his head before moving himself closer to Emma in order to whisper enough for only her to hear him. "The food's on the mechanic." Neal then pulled out the money he'd swiped from the mechanic and showed it to Emma.

Emma giggled when Neal said when they both wanted to 'feast out', that was probably an accurate explanation for it all. She watched him curiously when he was glancing at the menu again. There were some pretty good things on it, so she didn't blame him that he was still deciding on what he was having.

She smiled apologetic when he seemed so sad about the fact that he didn't have orange juice in such a long time. Well-" She began, wanting to offer him the orange juice, she'd just take a glass of water. But, she was interrupted when Neal said that she shouldn't worry and leaned closer to her, she watched him curiously again before looking at the money he had apparently swiped from the mechanic.
"Wow.." She muttered, amusement in her voice. "I didn't notice you took that!" She whispered, watching the money and then looking back at Neal. "What if he finds out? We have to go back to pick up our car?"

Neal knew that feasting out was the right words and way to phrase it. He just focused on the menu, trying to figure out what he wanted to have for breakfast. There were alot of good choices he'd have to admit.

Returning Emma's smile, Neal looked at her. Before Emma had a chance to respond, Neal tried to convince her not to worry, by proving why as he noticed the money. "Yeah, he didn't either. When we both knelt down to look at the light, I may have swiped it from his pocket." Neal said, smiling softly at Emma. Neal chuckled as he looked at Emma. "Look, don't worry about that. I didn't take enough for him to notice it was missing, just a couple of bills. If it worries you though, I can pick up the car."
