As we drive out the parking lot, I wave gingerly at Logan. He frowns back at me. Ouch. That kinda hurt. You'd think he'd smile or make a crazy face back, or something!

"So where all are we going?" asks Connor.

Instead of answering him, I crank up the radio.

'California Gurls, were unforgettable. Daisy Dukes, bikinis on top.'

Connor beats me to my favorite line and belches out beautifully,

"Sun kissed skin so hot, we'll melt your Popsicle."

"You like Katy?" I ask.

"Yeah," he replies. "Her and Ke$ha. They're my favorite artists."

"I would've never guessed," I say.

We sing along to Katy and Snoop for the rest of the song. Then a crappy song comes on, so I am compelled to change the station.

'Hot and dangerous. If you're one of us, then roll with us. Cause we make the hipsters fall in love, when we got our hot pants on and up.' comes out of my speakers.

"Got that glitter on my eyes. Stockings ripped all up the sides," me and Connor sing in unison.

"You like Ke$ha???" he asks me surprised.

The only response he gets is me with my mouth hanging open.

"I LOVE Ke$ha!!!! She always releases the beast held within me whenever I listen to her music," I admit to him.

"I like her, because she's wild and crazy, just like me," he says sheepishly.

"You aren't crazy!" I tell him.

"I'm flabbergasted that you'd think that!" he says defensively. "I am too wild. You just haven't seen that side yet."

"So does that mean I will?" I ask him, raising my eyebrows.

"I don't know. Maybe," he says looking at me and smiling. "Seriously," he says. "Where all are we going?"

"If you must know, we are going to the mall," I reply.

"Why?"

"Because I need a new outfit for Friday night," I say with a wink.

"What's happening- Oh. Mah. Gawd! That is NOT your mall!" Connor says incredulously as we drove by the front entrance of Huntington Park Mall.

"Oh yes it is," I say, turning to him to show me smiling. "It's almost as big as Glendale's!"

"Wait... There's BIGGER!?!?!?" he asks over dramatically.

"You've never heard of the Mall of America before obviously," I say. "It's do big, it takes days to walk through the entire thing!"

"Wow. We definitely never had anything like this back in Ireland."

"Which do you like better?" I ask, driving in the direction of the car park across the street from the back entrance.

"Hmmm... I like both, but America definitely has hotter guys," he says grinning.

"Wait... Wha? You're gay?!?" I ask him astonished.

"Yea," he responds calmly. "I thought you would've figured it out!"

"I suspected, but I thought my gaydar was broken," I reply, parking the car on the middle level of the car park.

We both get out at the same time, and I lock the doors with a click of my key ring. As we walk towards the back entrance, Connor asks,
