## Story

### Season 1

#### Meeting Kade and working at Spenders

Suzy is a person just trying to live her life, prior to meeting Kade, she would jump from job to job regularly until becoming a model for Spenders and took the free job opening as the cashier after Kade was fired.

She first Kade during his brief time working at MallMart, she plopped a box of tampons on the register. Kade was dumbfounded as he just stared at her due to how cute she was, Suzy breaks the awkward eye contact by interrogating him, asking him if it was because she was rather tall, or she had vitiligo or the fact she was only purchasing tampons. Kade stops spacing out and hands her stuff in a bag. She notices and compliments on his tattoos, lamenting that she herself wanted to get some down but was too much of a wimp to do so. She leaves, not before leaving him that he should stop being a pervert and gawking at women. This would leave those same words ringing in his head for a while.

A day goes by, as she just goes around working until she sees a guy in a blissful mode walk into the picture, she immediately realizes that he was the same person from the other day, calling him by his soon-to-be nickname Pervert. After a quick talk with Stace, Kade returns to the counter where Suzy is, the two stand there in quiet, Suzy tries to break the silence by reminding him that they both don't need to be working at the counter, Kade explains that there was nothing to do, as everyone had left and the floor was spotless. She walks up to the racket of shirts and pushes them off, she walks back to him saying that she wasn't sure about it being "spotless' and that he should go clean that tiny mess and not to worry as she was looking over the counter. Kade walks towards it, telling her that he was sorry for bothering her and that he will stay on what he was best at. Suzy sees this, clearly feeling a bit guilty and how she changed his mood.

The next day comes by, and we come back to her finishing ringing someone up. She glances at Kade who is fixing stock and goes up to him trying to start small talk once again, this time claiming that she was much better at folding clothing, offering to take over. Without hesitation, he tosses her the shirt and walks to the counter, Suzy is flustered by his cold demeanor. A bit later she carries a new box of inventory, asking Kade for help unloading one of several boxes. Kade help her and the two soon get ready to reload on stock, unfortunately, the box they opened was filled with woman's underwear, Suzy takes the chance to tease him again by calling him a pervert once again, Kade doesn't even glance and was about to leave her to unload everything but Suzy quickly tells him that she was just messing with him as well as all those other times, she told him that she was desperately just trying to start a conversation but she really didn't know how to. While she was being truthful, Kade didn't really buy it but went along with it, not wanting to let it faze him. A bit later, while restocking, Suzy comes around carrying a white pair of underwear with hearts on them, handing them to Kade telling him that it totally matched his feminine aesthetic physique, this was the final straw and Kade went on to take his lunch break a bit early.

After a while, Kade took a step back after hearing what Suzy said and was willing to be more open with her, and the two bonded as he soon realized that she actually was really easy to talk to and was relatable, this helped lift the uncomfortable tension between them and improved their workspace.

#### Getting to learn Zaida's secret

The day after Kade's fever, Suzy walks up to Kade and asks where he was yesterday. Kade explains that he just had a fever, Suzy is glad to hear but then asks if he could take over the register as she was socially exhausted as she had been getting hit on every other guy due to her exposure because of the online store. Kade accepts but then tells her that he just found out that she modeled and if she could give her some advice. Suzy is surprised and teases him for wanting to take the modeling plan. Kade reassures her that it wasn't for him but for a friend, Suzy tells him that he is no fun but then tells him that she wasn't great with random advice and that his friend should just call or text her and that they should exchange numbers later. Kade found that helpful... if Zaida actually had a phone.

On Kade's day off, he took Zaida to Spenders to pick up a pair of earrings. While Kade goes to take to Stace, Zaida bumps into Suzy. Suzy asked her if she could help her with anything. The two stayed silent as Zaida stood there admiring the model's beauty. She remembers what she was doing and asked Suzy what was so special about the back of the store, Suzy was hesitant about showing her and asked Zaida her age where she happily says that she is almost twenty-one, Suzy asked for her ID. Zaida panics and explains that she had forgotten it. Suzy explains that it isn't that she believed her but it was just a part of the job, as the back of the store contained the Lingerie and Adult Toys. Zaida is a bit confused but Suzy said that she wouldn't stop her if she wanted to see for herself. Zaida happily walked away but remembered the question she wanted to ask before, she gets Suzy's attention and asked her if she would make a good model for Spenders. The two clicked and ended up having a long conversation about modeling and Zaida brought up that she wanted to pierce her ears. Suzy told her that she used to do it for a living and offered to swing by her place and pierce her ears tonight and gave her a number so they could talk more.

After getting the address from the text, Suzy had arrived at what she thought was Zaida's home. Suzy compliments her on the cozy room and Zaida gives her the grand tour. The two walks into the bedroom where Suzy start's on her ears, while setting it up, the two start small talk talking about the music Zaida enjoys. Zaida tells her that a friend had gotten her into music and she is currently enjoying Babe Metal. Suzy is happy to know another Lady Metal Head, she then brings up the subject of the shape of her ears and asks if she had gotten it done, Zaida tells her that she was born with them. Suzy apologized if she did offend her, she also told her that it actually reminds her of Princess Zella from "The Legend of Zella" and complained that she thinks they're cool and loved the color her hair was. Zaida is embarrassed, Suzy shows her the placement and pierces both of the ears. After finishing she showed Zaida the end results, Zaida thanked her for her time, the two sat down and Suzy came upfront and told to tell her that she had been one of the chilliest and coolest people that she had met in a while and just asked her if she wanted to be friends. Zaida was left speechless and her eyes glowed out of joy hearing that someone wanted to be her friend, Kade who was in the closet, noticed this and burst out of the closet to tell Zaida about her eyes. Suzy jolted up and before she could ask Kade anything Zaida's eyes started to glow, willing to say that she did want to be her friend. Suzy was speechless and looked around the room scared and confused about what she had just seen. She asked what was Kade doing there and what the hell Zaida was, Zaida started levitating, introducing herself as the former Zodian, being not so different from her or Kade.

She tried to make a run for it but was stopped by Kade, telling her that he understood the situation was odd but why she was running off. Suzy is still in shock questioning if she was an Alien. Kade tells her that she is from another planet but she wasn't here to hurt them, she lets go of her arm and explains that she had nowhere to go and that she was a very cool person. Kade doesn't blame her for how she reacted but tells her that, at the very least, she should get to know her a bit more. Suzy takes a step back and goes to apologize for how she reacted but explains that she was startled because she had no idea that anyone existed out there. Zaida understands as Kade had the same reaction from the first time he saw her. They sit down and explain everything she told Kade, Suzy is hung up on the fact that she ran away from home and Kade explains that was the reason he was sharing his space with her until she figures out what she wants. Suzy can relate to the situation of running away as she implied she did the same, She then asked her if it was okay to ask her why she ran away, Zaida stays silent and Kade explains that it was still a sensitive subject that hasn't been discussed with him either. Suzy understands and moves on to ask her about the glowing eyes and if it was caused by something she said, she responds by saying that just as Zodian's expressed genuine joy and the reason why her eyes glowed was that she asked her to be her friend and Zaida was excited to be close with another female. Suzy's heart is warmed and shares that she hadn't had a friend in a long time as well. Then the two go on to talk about the things they should do while they hung out with each other, Kade cut's in to remind them that he exists, and Suzy tells him if he was cool with everything, He doesn't mind what she did with Zaida, all she needed to do was shot him a text before she shows up unexpectedly. Suzy looks at the situation she was living in and offer's Zaida if she wanted to come and live with her because she thought she might feel more comfortable living with another woman. Zaida looks at Kade wanting to know what he thought, Kade tells her that it was something that she should decide and not depend on him for what she really wants. Zaida smiles and appreciates her thoughts but is more comfortable living with Kade as, after all, he was her best friend. Suzy once again understands but if she were to change her mind, she should know that her offer still stands. While Kade went off to take a shower, Suzy had convinced and helped Zaida set up an Instabam account. When Kade had gotten word of this He felt a bit uneasy as he didn't think she was ready to tackle social media yet but Suzy stated that a girl should be able to express herself and it would help Zaida become a bit more social bit by bit while showing Kade the account. Kade saw her username "Zaida.NotAlien" and wasn't amused at the name while Suzy played it off as a joke. She hangs out with the duo a bit longer until calling it a day and saying goodbye to them, leaving with two new friends and an even bigger secret.

The following day, still in shock, Suzy walks up to Kade asking if last night really did happen and if Zaida really was an Alien. Before she could finish what she was saying, He shut her mouth saying that she was glad that Zaida was gaining new friends but that she shouldn't be saying her secret so openly because, like Ethan, he doesn't want to make it difficult to trust her. Suzy is surprised to know that more people know her secret saying how it was a lot to take in. Stace walks up to the two telling them that the store was busy and they should go back to work and then tells Kade to meet him after work, Suzy teases Kade on the out-of-context statement telling her to shut up.

After work, She felt the urge to go see Zaida, and after work headed straight towards Kade's place where she met Zaida's other friend, Ethan, the two got along pretty well quickly. He was there talking with the two and was there to see Kade was in a pretty bad mood before calming down as he realized he and Suzy were there. Ethan asked if he was alright, whereas Kade just said he just didn't want to talk about it. He didn't want to bother him about it so he just left it as it is. He joined the others in playing "Epic Bash Dudes" and then "Mr. Money" and was disappointed at how outclassed he was compared to Suzy. He was then asked by Kade if he had classes tomorrow but his attention was cut by Zaida who asked for a selfie. Ethan was more than happy to do so, much to Kade's discontent. The three clean up the mess Suzy did and sit down. Suzy brings up the fact that Zaida Instabam's account was doing pretty well and comments that the reason was that she was just that beautiful. Ethan told Suzy that it was because her art was amazing. This gets Suzy thinking and states that if Zaida would end up doing modeling that she would kill it. Ethan says she should focus on art as it would take her far. Suzy and Ethan get into a little argument as Suzy claims that she could just dress up and make quick cash while Ethan says she had more options through art and then they both ask Zaida what she wanted to do. Zaida just says both, while Ethan thinks that was genius, Suzy said that would be stressful. Ethan says that either he was excited to see what she would do as she was adapting so fast on earth and Zaida thanks him. Suzy still can't get over the fact that she was alien. Zaida then says she felt at home thanks to Kade and goes on sharing her thanks with him. Ethan notices that he was feeling uneasy and to help him, he ruins that mood by saying he needed to piss and leaves the front door saying there was a better bathroom outside, much to Zaida's confusion. Ethan goes outside enjoying the view and notices a meteor shower, wanting to scare them, he goes running inside saying that they needed to come outside quickly. They all go outside scared of what possibly could be happening just to be face to face with Ethan trolling, but they see the beautiful sky and enjoy it with him.

The groups enjoy the view while Kade reprimands him not to scare him like that again, Ethan gets all smug saying that he must have been worried that aliens were going to show up and take his Zaida away. Kade blushes and tells him to quit it. He notices that Zaida was looking uneasy, Ethan then brings up that, while he knows that it would be hard to talk about, he wanted to know what her home planet was like. Suzy also is interested, as she wanted to know how it was out there as she believed they were alone and Earth was the only planet with people. Ethan is flabbergasted, saying that the Universe was vast and they couldn't possibly be alone. The two bicker about the topic before Zaida cuts them off, She says that while she might have been from Zodia but didn't consider it her home. She had such a better experience on Earth, she wasn't treated not like an object and she didn't live like she was in a prison. Everyone was shocked at hearing this, Kade tries to brighten the mood by offering them to stay over 'til morning as it was late. The two get ready to go to sleep and Ethan takes the couch and starts dozing off Suzy asks Zaida to sleep together but Kade swoops in and asks Zaida if she could sleep with him as he wanted to talk. Ethan jolts up hearing this and Suzy said that he didn't need her all night. Before Kade could explain anything Zaida agrees to sleep with him. Ethan smiles out of joy, unlike Suzy who looked a bit worried.

#### The fashion show incident

Kade and Suzy together enter work the next day and Kade had been sulking all morning. At work, Stace asked Suzy what was up with him and she just explained that he had been like that all morning and he had a lot on his mind. After work and under Kade's advice she had asked Suzy if she could invite Zaida to the Fashion event where she happily agreed. She later called Zaida and the two talked and Zaida shared how she was having trouble determining what she wanted to do for her future. Suzy makes a comment about how that must have been stressful and brings up the fashion show tomorrow and how she should totally come as it could help her learn more about modeling. Zaida was actually thinking of declining the offer as it seemed rather intimidating to her and she didn't feel suited for modeling. After a few words of encouragement by Suzy, in the end, Zaida decides to go.

The next day, she shows up much earlier than the set time she was supposed to pick her up and she had something fun to do with Zaida. She brings her to the bathroom and explains the concept of make-up while giving Zaida a make-over. On the topic of appearance, Zaida asked Suzy if she could make a good earthling as when she first saw her, she looked at her strangely, and then asked if her appearance didn't fit in, then why do she and Stace insist that she would make a good model. Suzy wants to explain her first thought on meeting Zaida but get's flustered thinking about her, she just told her that she looked like a typical Spenders customer was pretty colored hair, and to Stace, she looked like a pretty face to make more sales but sees her as a beautiful woman with lots of potentials. Zaida brightens up hearing this as it reassures her that she can fit in and thanks to her. Suzy shows Zaida a few outfits she had brought for her and Finishes her makeover. The two go out of the bathroom and Suzy stated that she didn’t know it was possible to make her even cuter than she already was. Kade was amazed by Suzy's work, Suzy said they were heading out and that she will try and keep him posted and the two get ready to leave, but at the last second, Kade had changed his mind and decided to go with them. The trio made it to the event, while Suzy and Zaida were having a great time, Kade started to regret going as the place was packed. Kade and Zaida had a moment and Suzy cut in, trying not to spoil their wholesomeness, but asked if she could steal Zaida as she wanted to show her backstage before the start of the event. Suzy tells him to get good front row seats before the show as Kade starts to walk away. She grabs Zaida's hand and pulls her backstage. Zaida asked if she would be going to these events with her if she became a model. Suzy tells her if she decides to become a model, she wouldn’t have to attend the shows but it’s another paycheck so might as well attend them. She welcomes Zaida backstage and explains the process of how they get ready to walk the stage and such. Stace notices Zaida and walks up to her and says hello while trying to make small talk while failing. Suzy sees him failing and asks him if he would think that Zaida would make a great model whereas Stace says without a doubt. All of a sudden Suzy notices the other models start to get excited as someone is entering the room. Zaida wonders who it was, Suzy just shrugs and says it was some famous model, Stace explains that it was a special quest that they had set up a sponsorship with to attract more customers as she is big online and she walked in. Zaida's eyes widened as she ran out of the room. Suzy was confused about why but later she had found out the situation, Zaida was trying to warn Kade about the return of her ex, Delilah.

### Season 2

#### Witnessing Kade's grief

A month has passed since the Fashion event. Suzy and Ethan had noticed Kade's recent decline in his mental health and his refusal to go out with them, eat, or care for his general hygiene has his friends worried.

Suzy had called Zaida wanting to check up on her, Zaida said she was doing great and Suzy was wondering if she wanted to grab lunch with her, Zaida told her that she had already eaten and asked Suzy how Kade was at work. Suzy told her that he was still Kade and wasn’t sure what Zaida wanted to hear, Zaida thanked her for being honest. She tells her that she needed to call her and that she would be free for an hour. Zaida tells her that she wishes to talk with her about something and if they can make plans to eat out tomorrow. Suzy agrees and guesses it had to be related to Kade.

The next day, Suzy had picked up Zaida to go out and eat. Zaida was surprised that Ethan had joined them as he wanted to be used for extra advice. Suzy assumed that she wanted to have a serious conversation with Kade due to her tone of voice the other day. Zaida said that she wanted to ask for help and if there is anything she could do to help him feel better as she has never been in this situation before and doesn’t know how to handle it. It had been difficult to watch him be so down, however, last night he finally groomed himself, although he is still quiet. Suzy felt a bit uneasy as while he doesn’t fully understand Kade's connection with Delilah, she feels like he took steps back as yesterday Delilah visited and she feels like he only did it to impress his ex. Zaida's mood drops and Ethan tries to reassure her that it will be okay and he is just going through a lot. Suzy apologizes that they're kind of out of the loop and they can’t help much but the only thing she is sure of is that he's gonna need some time and space alone.

After eating, Ethan had left and the two decided to go out for a walk to talk about it a little bit more. She shares that she feels like Kade hasn’t moved on from Delilah and it will be rough as they are going to dump into each other a lot, she also shares that she is surprised that Delilah used to be with Kade and wondered what she saw in saggy pervert. Zaida asked if giving him space would help his mental health. Suzy isn’t sure but tells her to not look so worried and if she does choose to give him space that her place is always open and tells her not to forget she is always there to help.

The next day, she goes to work and was the one to make Kade’s day a bit worse by breaking the news that Stace had told them to put up promos of lingerie with Delilah on them by tonight. The two put the posters all over the store and Kade's was in a terrible mood. Suzy tries to cheer him up by thanking him due to the circumstances he is in. Kade tells her that is fine. Suzy still tries to make him feel better and even offers him a hug but quickly changed that to a pat on the shoulder, she reassures him that she is also a friend that he could talk to and he shouldn’t be afraid, Kade is shocked as he didn’t expect something like that from Suzy but Suzy says that just what friends too and tells him to remember that and tells him to get a lot of rest for tomorrow. Kade is confused and Suzy tells him that she overheard that Delilah would be on the floor tomorrow to advertise. The two call it a day and go home. The next day, once again, Zaida went to Suzy asking for advice, Zaida yells about how Kade is acting weird. Suzy told her that one, she already knew that, and two, her ears were in pain. Zaida apologizes and tells her that she needed more advice, while she didn’t want to get too into detail, Kade was acting strange toward her and she doesn't know if she should be happy or worried about it. Suzy tells her that it’s most likely Delilah related, she sorry that she had to go through this mess but she doesn’t know what to tell her as Kade needs to get over her because Delilah was just out of his league. Zaida tells her that she just wants him to be happy again and Suzy suggests that she should talk to someone that knows more about his past as a friend of Kade, It clicks in Zaida's head and thanks to Suzy for the idea. She goes to work and the two are folding clothing, Suzy notices that Kade had been staring at Delilah and asks if she could ask about Delilah, more specifically, who broke up with who. Kade said that it was actually him, much to her surprise, due to him being the one that can’t move on and it seemed like a lie. He tells her that he doesn’t want to talk about it anymore and apologizes for asking about a sensitive topic.
