*recap*
Prince: This is the spot from earlier. You really need to be at home.

Destiny: Princeton, that bench is my home.

Prince: You...You LIVE there?!

Destiny: Yeah. Its not bad though, but thanks again.

She started to get out but Prince grabbed her arm.

Prince: I have a guest room at my house. You can stay there and I can help you get back on your feet.

Destiny: You hardly know me. You've done enough already Princeton. I don't want to be a burden on you or your daughter.

Jacobie: Listen to her papa.

Prince: Cobie listen to your music.

Jacobie: Ok.

He waited until she placed her ear buds in and he checked to make sure they were on.

Prince: I guarantee you won't be a burden. I love helping people. Its in my blood.

Destiny: If You say so.

Prince: So will you stay?

Destiny: Just until I can get a job.

Prince: Alright! Well you do need clothes, so I'll take you shopping.

Destiny: Ok.

Prince sped off to their next destination... the mall.
After a couple of minutes, Prince turned into to Mall parking lot. He found a spot close to the store. He carried Jacobie and helped Destiny across. He sat Destiny in one of the driving carts. (Some malls have them)

Destiny: (laughing) I feel so old.

Prince laughed with her.

Prince: At least you don't look old.

Prince grabbed a pink kiddie car and pushed Jacobie.

Prince: Where to first?

Destiny: Rue 21.

Prince: Ok. I'll let you find what you want to wear. Let me know when you finish.

Destiny: Ok.

Prince didn't notice, but Destiny blushed a little. Maybe because he's the first man that shows that he genuinely cares about her. Destiny wasn't expensive, and it just so happens that everything was on sale. While Destiny shopped, Prince was comforting a crying Jacobie.

Prince: What's wrong princess?

Jacobie: You...don't... love me...anymore.

Prince: Now why would you say that. I love you more than anything in this world. You're my favorite Girl and no one can take your place.

Jacobie: Well...since...you met Destiny... you've been... yelling at me...and I...felt left...out.

Prince: You were acting up. I didn't mean to make you feel left out. I'm sorry.

Jacobie: Its ok papa.

Prince: Once Destiny finishes, well go for some ice cream.

Jacobie: Okay.

After a good hour, Destiny called Prince in. He paid for her clothes which was only about $60.

Prince: Destiny, I'm going to buy Cobie some ice cream. You want some?

Destiny: No thanks, I'm good.

Prince bought the ice cream and they all headed back to the jeep.
As Prince was driving back, he played a song that he and Jacobie liked.

Prince: Here goes our song.

Let it Go began to play. They started singing and moving to the music. Destiny sat there and admired their bond. They sang until the song ended and by that time, they were in the driveway.

Prince: Cobie,you go ahead and go inside.

Jacobie: Ok papa.

He helped Destiny out and grabbed her bags.

Prince: I'll help you to the guest room.

Prince helped her upstairs.

Prince: If you want, you can stay up here. I'm going to cook dinner.

Destiny: Alright. Thank you so much Princeton.

Prince: Its no problem. Is there anything that you can't eat?

Destiny: I'm good on everything.

Prince: Good. Well I'll see you at dinner.

Destiny: Alright then.

When He walked out, Destiny fell back on the bed, blushing.

Destiny: Wow!
