It was a Saturday morning and I was laying in bed watching ANTM -again-, when my phone buzzed.

'Arabella ♡ : hey babe, wanna come to the mall? xx'

Grinning, I quickly typed an answer.

'Brooke ♡ : yess, can u pick me up? xx'

I waited a bit and saw she had already answered.

'Arabella ♡ : yeahh, 3 pm!! c youu xx'

I didn't even bother to reply, since my mom had called me to lunch already.

I sat, eager to finally eat some spaghetti and tell my mom I would be going to the mall later with Arabella. We had become really good friends, despise the fact I was a freshman and she was a senior.

I finally saw my parents sit around the table as well as Mila and I put some spaghetti to her and for me too.

"So, mom, I was wondering if I could go to the mall today with Arabella?" I ask, even though I already knew the answer.

"Yeah, sure. I like her. Just come home by 5"

I smiled to myself as I ate and when I finished, I put my plate on the sink and ran to my room so I could take a shower and decide what to wear.

I look at myself in the mirror, a black crop top with some high waisted jean shorts and a flannel wrapped around my waist. My hair was curled and my makeup was a little bit of concealer on my imperfections, some light foundation and powder. For my eyes, just mascara.

I smiled to myself and sprayed some perfume before running to the door and entering Arabella's car.

"Ooh la la, muchacha" She compliments me, stepping on the gas pedal.

I laugh and compliment her as well "Ooh la la, señorita". I turn the radio on and we start singing loudly off-key. Where Are Ü Now was playing and I grinned. Just on time.

"WHEN YOU BROKE DOWN I DIDN'T LEAVE YOU, SO WHERE ARE YOU NOW THAT I NEED YA?" I started laughing hard and she soon started too.

We only stopped when we had a mission. "We need to find a parking space" She says, putting her sunglasses on the top of her head and smirking at me.

When we finally found one, we stepped out of the car and into the mall.

After we had already entered and shopped on Forever 21, Pac Sun, Urban Outfitters and Aeropostale, we decided to have some Starbucks. We ordered and sat on a little table outside the store.

"Soooo, Brooks, what's going on between you and Dan?" She asks suspiciously.

"Ugh, nothing I guess." I answer taking a sip from my iced coffee. She smirks, "I think he likes you," I start to blush like crazy "and I have a feeling you like him too."

That got me wondering, does he really? I mean, he is kind of known for using girls like they were dolls and it always ended with the girl hurt and brokenhearted. I guess I do like him but I am not really good at dealing with feelings like that. Besides, I don't want to ruin our friendship since we just started trusting each other more and texting more frequently.That's what I tell Arabella.

"I don't know if that would happen with you but I'm sure that if that ever happens, I'll kick his ass."

I start laughing like crazy and so does she.

After we drank our coffee, Arabella brought me home and I was thinking, again.

Did I really like Dan or was I just lying to myself?
