Merleah's POV

I thought going to the mall would take my mind off of the dream I had last night. But I couldn't seem to shake the idea that is was really her. I've read before that sometimes dreams can mean something and sometimes come true in the future. But the thought of seeing her in real life was unreal. We passed one of my favorite stores and my mind wandered elsewhere. Victoria's Secret. Oh how I love that place. I rushed into the store with the girls chasing after me screaming "Oh no Merleah don't! Oh don't do it please! You do this everytime!" I yelled in response "Oh hush you know you love it!" Of course I had to do it. I always do this when we go to VS. I quickly paced over to the bras and panties and ran into an open dressing room, even though I didn't need to put them on in the dressing room, I just did it for dramatic effect. I put the undergarments on over my clothes and walked outside and acted as if the stores carpet was my runway. The girls were hysterically laughing, desperately trying not to fall on the floor when a group of guys looked through the stores glass window and started laughing while I was still striking poses, deciding to put on a show for them. I went up to the glass saying "you like? Hmm which ones do you think look better?" I asked holding up other sets of lingerie. One guy pointed to the Lacey pink one I was holding. "Ohhhh you like this one?" I asked putting the other down. The guy nodded still laughing. Darcy and Claire were still laughing uncontrollably while I said "Hmm I don't know if pink is really your color. And this is definitely not your size." The guys friends turned to him and laughed while he blushed. Claire and Darcy decided my fun time was over, so Claire unhooked the bra from the back while Darcy pushed me on the floor to where I sat down and she slid the panties off. We could barely control ourselves from laughing so much. I then bowed and said "Thank you, thank you very much!" Impersonating Elvis Presley. I ended up buying the Pure Seduction, and Aqua Kiss perfume. After leaving I decided we should have a little more fun. "Hey do you girls see that couple over there holding hands?" I asked. "Yea, why?" They both said. I then replied "Well Claire, I dare you to go over there with me and say to the guy 'so you just don't call me back? I thought what we had was real! I slept with you for crying out loud' while keeping a straight face." Claire looked nervous while saying "But Merleah what if they break up, that's so not cool." I huffed and said "Oh come on it's just for fun. Stop always looking at the negatives." Claire then cracked a smile and said "fine, but only because I'd like to see how he handles it." I knew she would crack, none of us ever back down from a dare. We both walked over there with Claire having no clue I had a surprise in mind. She stood directly in front of the guy looking furious while she said "So you just don't call me back? I thought what we had was real! I slept with you for crying out loud!" I then stepped in and said "You slept with my Bestfriend? How could you! You told me you loved me! You're such a jerk!" I pushed him ever so slightly with my shoulder while grabbing Claire's hand and walking back over towards Darcy who almost peed on herself laughing while the guy still stood in the exact place looking astonished, amazed, flabbergasted, surpri- well you get the idea. Meanwhile the girl was screaming at him demanding for him to explain. Darcy then said "If that ever happened to me and Zig I would have punched the girl right her face. And then probably broke up with him. Awh poor girl!" She obviously didn't feel that bad since she was still giggling. Claire looked at me and said "Merleah! You just made it twice as bad!" I shrugged it off and said "oh well, come on C, you know it was funny." After Claire realizing arguing with me was pointless she gave up. We were making our way over to the Michael Kors store when each of our phones chimed with a notification. When we pulled out our phones, they all showed the exact same thing. A post from Gossip Girl. What? She never posts two blasts in one day. It was a picture of us three standing at our lockers this morning and it looks as if what we were talking about was making me nervous. Oh no.
