Stalker

April

       I got Hazel into my car and began to drive into town. We hadn't actually been out shopping in a while. We mostly went out and had fun. We hadn't had any one on one time. The boys decided to go to Nick's house and that was fine by us.

       Hazel had told me she got back together with Nick. How it happened when she told me was amazing. I had squealed and swerved, nearly getting pulled over by a cop. She seemed happier, brighter, but somber. Her face showed signs of remorse. Angelina hadn't exactly been her friend, but there was something between them. They used to be friends.

I pulled into a dress shop, "Ready?"

She seemed to pull herself away from her thoughts, "Yeah!"

       We went inside and it was lined with.gorgeous dresses. Since the town ball was tomorrow the store was packed with dresses. Hazel immediately went to a baby blue princess type dress with rhinestones on the top. Her eyes shined with adoration.

"That didn't take long." I laughed.

She looked at me with a twinkle in her eye, "Yes, and I will still try on at least half of these dresses."

       For hours we tried on dresses and giggled. It seemed a little hard for Hazel at times because of her ribs but other than that, she was having real fun. I finally settled on a dress. It was to my ankles, silk, and skin tight. It was a soft green and had rhinestones along the middle, wrapping up around my shoulders and falling open on my back, showing the skin. It was beautiful... and expensive.

       Hazel paid for both of them since her mother said she didn't care how much she spent and we headed to Nick's house. When we got there the boys were sitting on the porch and Nick's mom was standing behind them laughing.

       Nick's mom was a small, beautiful woman, but she was stern.

"Nick!" Hazel ran to him and I smiled, hopping out and running to Percy.

We jumped into our loves arms and Nick's mom coughed.

"Hello, Dear." She hugged Hazel tightly.

Hazel smiled, "Hey!"

We went inside and that night we stayed there.
