I bit my lip in the dressing room. "I think what I already have is enough! So, I won't bother coming out there and showing this to you guys!"
It had almost been the whole day, and we'd been shopping at the mall for clothes. At first it was nice, just me and Forestt. And then, who else but Alexis and Zeke showed up. Then Alexis began going on a shopping frenzy and showing me around everywhere and forcing me to try on the raciest things. And the two of them didn't know of my relationship with Forestt, so it had been pretty boring for the most part. I wasn't complaining- Alexis and Zeke were the best friends I could have.
But Alexis went a little physco at the mall.
"Yes you are!" I heard her say. "Or I'm coming in there!"
I crossed my arms, even though she couldn't see me. "No, you're not!"
"If you're not coming out, I'm coming in!" I heard Forestt say. I quickly pushed the door open. Alexis had made me try on a short black dress from forever 21. It was reasonably priced (which was a good thing) but it was just.. not something I would wear. There was a tight lacy one shoulder thing going on, and the dress itself was almost suffocating.

But the reaction of Forestt when I stepped out was worth it. His mouth dropped open slightly and I saw a light blush color his cheeks. I snorted to myself. Alexis and Zeke were both silent, and I began to feel uncomfortable. Was Forestt gaping because it was so ugly? I let my red hair cover my eyes, blushing. "Okay, I get it, it looks bad. I'll go change out of it." I began to turn around but Forestt tugged my arm, making me turn back.
"No, keep it." He said, his eyes piercing into mine. I gulped as the sparks between our hands electrified. His words seemed to make the room come alive. "You look so hot!" Alexis screamed. Zeke grinned at me. "Yeah, I would date you." This remark earned him a slap in the head from Alexis.
I smiled and walked back into the dressing room, changing out of the dress. I changed into my normal clothes (or rather, clothes from the mall I had just bought today- I wasn't going to walk around in pajamas) and came out. Alexis and Zeke were gone and it was only Forestt.
"You looked beautiful." He said softly, taking my hand. I looked down. "Thanks. I didn't know if I should've gotten it or not." I replied. Forestt surprised me, by pulling me close to him. I could feel his muscles through his light shirt and I shivered, in a good way. "That was a definite yes."
Suddenly, Alexis appeared. I jumped away from Forestt, blushing, but she didn't seem to have noticed anything. Instead, she was prancing around in a strapless floral dress, cinched at the waist with a belt. Her hair was up in a messy, stylish ponytail and she had on about a million beaded bracelets on her arms. "I love this outfit! I'm totally getting it." She cried.
Zeke followed behind her, carrying tons of hangers with clothes. He sent me a look of desperation. "Can we please leave!?" He begged Alexis. She turned around and glared. "If we leave now, that's no kisses for 2 days." Zeke's mouth dropped. "That's bribery!" He yelled, scowling.
She raised her eyebrows. "I can make it 2 days without sex." Zeke sat down immediately.
I raised my eyebrows. "You can't even go 2 days without getting laid!?" I asked, shocked. Zeke pouted. "What can I say? She's like.. a man-izer." I chuckled. "Um... okay then. We'll be leaving."
Zeke groaned. "No, don't leave me!"
I laughed to myself and walked towards the exit, Forestt right next to me.
We were almost to the exit when a flash of blonde hair met my eyes. "Rinn?" I said, surprised.
Rinn was looking as beautiful as ever, but her expression didn't match her looks. "WILLOW! HOW DARE YOU LEAVE WITH FORESTT!" She said loudly, earning us a couple of stares. I touched her arm. "Rinn, you aren't my mother. And I know everything, anyways." Rinn looked away, her eyes worried, then glanced at the mark I'd tried to cover on my neck. "YOU.." She gasped.
