Lauri stared at him with a bored expression on her face as she listened to him give her a reply she's heard too many times to count. As he finished his last sentence she let out a groan and stood up. She walked around the the front of the chair and stood in front of Arthur for a moment, giving him a sad look and then slightly leaning forward and placing her hands on his shoulders. "I'll drive but I don't want to go alone! Pleaaseee?" She begged again, shaking his shoulders a little as she did so before straightening out and placing one hand on her hip.

"Then you can help me pick out Christmas presents for Derek and Rain, and you'll be able to get Ron and your girlfriend a gift too! How about that? Let's not patrol today and let's just take a break!" She said with an enthusiastic smile before picking up the spoon in Arthurs cereal bowl and taking a large bite of his cinnamon toast crunch and then putting the spoon back into the bowl and walking away. "I'm going to get dressed! Hurry up and eat so we can go!" She called back to him as she hurried up the stairs, disappearing before her friend could argue back. She hurried up to her room, spending about twenty minutes picking out something to wear. In the end she put on a thick, light purple sweater and a hot pink jacket over top along with a thin, tan scarf she simply threw over her shoulders. For bottoms she put on a pair of mint green shorts and thick, black tights with a pair of tan boots, folding the tops over so the cotton would show. Lastly, she replaced the dark blue ribbon around her pony tail with a dark green one before grabbing her bag and finally heading downstairs.
