I look in the mirror, pleased with my appearance. I have on little makeup on, giving me a natural look.

I hear a knock on my bedroom door. "Come in!" I yell.

"Hey," Skylar says. "Can Bella come, too? It'd be like the old days," she tried, and succeeded, to convince me.

"Okay," I smile. She's right. It'd be just like the old days. Before mom died. Before Skylar moved. Before me and Bella became not so close. Before me and Bryson broke up. Before everything.

"So, do you want me to go ask Bella?" Skylar asked.

"Ask me what?" A voice came from the doorway. I didn't have to look. I knew for a fact it was her because one, I know her voice and two, she said 'me'.

"If you want to go shopping with us," Skylar informed her. Bella thought for a second or two, probably thinking about what she has planned for the day. But we all knew what she was going to say.

"Sure," she concluded, shrugging her shoulders. "I don't have anything else planned for today, anyway."

I laugh. I walk over to my messy bed and grab my handbag off of it. My purse contains a credit card, a little cash, earbuds, two sets of keys, and my phone. That's all I need.

"I'll be right back, 'Kay? I gotta put on something decent and fix my hair then I'll be ready," Bella backed out of the room and went into the hallway. I sit down on my bed. We sit in silence for a while.

"So, what do you wanna talk about?" Skylar said, trying starting a conversation.

"I don't know. What about you?" I ask her. When will Bella be ready?

"Same." We sit in more silence until Bella finally strides in wearing makeup, her hair all fixed up in loose curls, and a light blue sundress.

"Sorry, guys. Hayden called. He asked me out to dinner and I couldn't say no. Again, I'm sorry," and with that, she left. Hayden McCannon is Isabella's boyfriend. They've been dating for ten weeks. It's cute.

"Whelp. I guess we can go now. Are you ready?" I asked her. I was ready to do this.

"Yes!" She said excitedly. We walked out of my room and down the stairs. Then out of the house. "I'm taking my truck, you take your car, okay?" She reasoned. I nodded back in response. I jumped in my truck and started it up. Here I go...

I parked right beside Skylar. We both got out in unison. We met in between both of our cars.

"Where do you wanna go first?" I ask. I look at her. She thinks for a moment.

"Rue 21?" She asks. I just nod and we take off towards the door. Skylar's phone rings.

"Hello... Yeah... Okay... And... I don't know if I can... I'm with Sam right now... Mo-m-MOM! Okay I will be there as soon as I can!... B-b-bye mom," she sighs after she hung up. "I have to go."

She walks back towards the door. Since I'm here, I'm going to go ahead and shop.

I walk towards rue 21. "Samantha?" A male voice asks from behind me. I whip around and am surprised who I find.
