[3rd POV]
The exploration of Seattle had started by getting their stuff into the hotel that Billie had booked. The hotel itself was the nicest one in the city, and also the most private thanks to that. This was done for obvious reasons, as neither of them really wanted to deal with paparazzi while they were there. Which is why they were going to try their best to move around silently,and even order stuff online if they could.
After setting up the large hotel room, and getting everything put away, Billie had gotten a decent rental car, and was now driving through the city towards the nearest mall.
Haley was sitting next to her, contemplating what she wanted to buy, before deciding to ask the woman that actually knew.
"Hey, babe, do you know what they actually want? Cause I know you got a list or something, but was it specific or is this going to be a guessing game?" Haley asked, as Billie nodded.
"Mmhmm, I've got a proper list. One of the boys was legos, another is interested in an Xbox 360, and the others that we aren't visiting ourself are mostly into stuff like that, with a few also being into transformers and some are into pokemon" Billie explained, before continuing.
"As for the girls, some of them want pokemon cards like the boys, one of them even wants a PS3. But most of them want to hear us sing, funnily enough. But that wasn't really enough for me, as I figured we can do that either way. So it sounds like they mostly want stuffed animals, dolls, and makeup" Billie continued, as her girlfriend listened intently, before nodding slowly.
"Alright. So not really that hard of a list, and kind of what I was expecting to be honest" Haley responded, glad to see that the list was not super crazy, and was totally reasonable for them to get. The consoles were easy, the pokemon was easy, pretty much everything on the list was easy to get their hands on.
The makeup might be a bit strange, as they had no idea what sort of makeup the girls wanted. But Haley figured that they would just want what would make them look the best, or the ones that she personally used. So instead, she planned on just buying a ton of different types so the girls could test it themselves.
It made the hunt for their gifts pretty easy, thankfully.
"Now the real question is, do you want to go shopping for them first, or do you want to have some fun for the day first?" Billie asked her girlfriend, looking over at her.
"Well we have until Tuesday, right? I figured that we can stay until then and just use today to buy stuff for the kids. Then starting tomorrow we can explore and have some fun in the area. We have a lot of time for exploring, but we have only until tomorrow for the kids" Haley responded after a few moments of thought.
Billie raised an eyebrow at her girlfriend's thought out plan, before nodding.
"Mmmkay, lets go with that. We should probably hit the GameStop and Best Buy first, since they'll have the consoles and games that we need. And if one of them doesn't have enough, the other should be able to make up for that difference" Billie said, as she began to pull the car into the parking lot.
"Oh, and put this on. I doubt you want either of us to be seen by the press. I'd rather not deal with them today, considering why we are even here in the first place" Billie added, handing her a mask that would cover the lower half of her face.
It was the best way to not get recognized. As the second they did get recognized, they'd be harassed the rest of the time. When in actuality, they were here to help the kids, not to deal with their own celebrity lives or any bull like that.
And that would be annoying. As there wouldn't actually be a proper way to get them to stop once they were seen. And it would be the first time it has ever happened, if it came to that.
Thankfully, nobody knew they were even out of state, so nobody would be expecting them to just randomly appear in Seattle of all places. They knew that the two of them lived in California, but that was about it. The rest of it was covered up and remained hidden for their own personal lives. Well, that and mental health.
Getting out of the car with their masks on, the two began to walk towards the entrance to the mall. And thankfully, as Billie had been expecting, nobody had noticed who the two of them were. They had just looked like two women with masks on and nothing more.
If that mask came off though...well, she doubted she'd be able to properly walk at that point. With the sheer amount of people that would get in their way, and be a pain in the ass.
Walking into the mall, the two of them ignored those in their surroundings, and began to walk towards the local GameStop and then Best Buy afterwards.
Walking into the game store, Billie walked to the PS3 section, humming as she looked over the options. There was a LOT to choose from, and this was what some may say is the peak of gaming.
In the end she had grabbed 6 PS3's, 6 copies of Lego's Batman, 6 copies of Black Ops, 6 copies of Need for speed, and a couple other ones. While for Xbox 360, she had grabbed 8 of them, with 8 copies of all the Halo games available on Xbox 360. At the same time, she had grabbed 8 copies of Black Ops again, 8 copies of fallout 3, and a few more just like with the PS3's.
It had of course, gotten quite a lot of looks and attention, but Billie had just covered it up as something that was getting donated to a children's hospital, which wasn't really wrong or anything.
After buying the gaming supplies from the store, and bringing it back to their SUV, the two had returned. The shopping for the other parts was a lot easier, as it was limited to a smaller amount of kids, and had worked out easier.
She had grabbed legos, transformers, tons of pokemon, makeup, and a whole lot more.
By the time they had left the mall, they had spent over ten thousand dollars there. Well, Billie had. Haley had tried to spend her own money on it, but Billie had stopped her at every shot. It cost a lot of money, and she didn't want her girlfriend hurting her bank account too much.
After the shops had been finished with, and the shopping had been done after around 3 hours since they had arrived, the duo had decided to get some lunch at a nearby Chinese spot.
The food was great, as they both sat eating while conversing.
"Does the hospital even have enough plug ins and tvs for all those consoles?" Haley asked, as Billie nodded.
"Yep. I called and asked just to make sure. They have more than enough space for them, even if they did not know what I was talking about"
"Not know what you are talking about?"
"Mmhmm, I kept it hidden. Didn't tell them exactly what I had bought for the kids, only that I had spoiled them quite a lot" Billie replied.
Haley snorted "That's an understatement"
"Yeah I know. But they deserve it" Billie said, knowing she had bought a lot more for them than it seemed. She might have went a bit too far, but she didn't feel bad or anything.
With that in mind, the two had continued to eat, while Billie had one thought on her mind.
'Let's hope the kids like their gifts!'
