After breakfast with my brothers, we are getting ready to head over to the mall. The best social place you can ever find I guess.

I mean I've never been to one but in the movies you go there to hangout with your friends or find guys to slobber over.

I'm in my room changing to today's outfit. I don't have anything good because we're getting some new clothes for me at the mall so I'll have to choose one of my old outfits.

I decided to wear some ripped blue jeans with a black belt and a sweatshirt. It was either that or a blue flower dress that was worn out.

I quickly got changed and put on my shoes.

"Kim, hurry up, we need to be early so we can have more time to look around!" James shouted from downstairs.

"Coming! Almost done!" I replied grabbing my pepper spray.

You're probably wondering when I got that. Well my brothers thought it would be brilliant to give me a pepper spray in case any creep comes near me or tries to hurt me.

And I'm glad. It makes me feel more safe.

I hooked the spray onto my jeans and hid it underneath my shirt. Easy to access but hidden so nobody can see.

I ran downstairs to find James and Liam waiting by the car. Oliver and Leo had to go somewhere else today so I'm going to be with them today!

"You ready?" Liam asks still looking at his phone. I appreciate a lot that they are willing to take me, I have a feeling they don't usually do this.

"Yup!" I'm really excited. This is the first time I'm going to a mall and it's been a while since I've been shopping at all. Well, at least for me.

Sometimes Mary would make me go get groceries to cook them dinner. Secretly joe would tell me to go get a pack of cigarettes for him from his friend after every trip. I didn't like his friend too much. He was too touchy and smelled of drugs.

And he wasn't the nicest guy.

We all hop in the car. I hop in the back and buckle my seat belt.

Here it goes!

We soon get to the mall after a long boring ride. Nobody talked at all. Liam was cold and kept to himself, I doubt he would want to talk to me. Well for James, he was driving and I didn't want to bother him with my nonsense.

We all get out the car and I gasp at the sight in front of me. This is huge! I mean it's a mansion. Bigger than a mansion!

It's perfect!

James takes his hand out of his pocket and lends it to me to hold. I take it. As much as I like the sight of this, the thought of all those people inside frightens me, and I think he knows I feel that way.
