4:56 • going to the mall
I open the door, buckle my seat belt and put my bag on the floor when I had my vlogging camera in my hands. For those of you who don't know, I'm a YouTuber, I have a main channel and a vlogging channel. And vlogging is like blogging but with video instead. Sometimes I vlog my days like right now.
I press record and Lyric is buckling her seatbelt. "Hey guys! Lyric and I are going to the mall right now to shop because we barely have anytime for that AND NOW WERE GOING! So after the mall we're going to go to McDonalds for food because we're like that."
"FRIES" Lyric blurts out.
"Yes, fries, and then we need to go grocery shopping and then we will have a slumber party in the living room with Netflix and snacks and boom tonight is going to be EPIC"
"EPIC" Lyric repeats. We both laugh and I press the record button once more to make it stop recording. Then I put my camera in my bag.
"So where are we going first?" I ask.
"The mall"
"But I mean what sto-" This time Lyric cuts me off.
"HOT TOPIC" her eyes don't leave the sight of the road.
"Okay okay" I press the radio button and we sing to the songs the whole ride to the mall.
5:10 • SHOPPING
We unbuckle our seat belts in sync and grab our bags and head out the door.
"Hot topic hot topic hot topic" Lyric says pumping her hand and keys in the air. She does this every time we go to the mall or go to hot topic in general.
We walk in, go up the escalator, and Lyric RUNS to Hot Topic. I chase after her and then before we both knew it we were in the store. I go to the girl section of the store, mostly finding those "cosplay bows" even though I don't cosplay. I see Lyric at the band section picking out some stuffs.
"Buy one get one free, while store today" the cashier says. I look over at my cousin who has her arms FULL of stuff. I can't blame her.
"Do you need help?" A worker asks.
"Uh, no thanks" I put back the $8 bow on the rack and go somewhere else.
He follows me around the store. "No I can really help you" he stands closer to me.
"I said no thanks" by this time he's holding my hand. I look up in panic and Lyric isn't at the cash register anymore. I look up and everything is a blur his grip getting tighter and tighter and I try to fight back but I'm getting weaker and weaker. Her corners me and I notice I still have legs so I kick him in his you-know-what. He looks at me angrily and clenches my wrist tighter and then I close my eyes and next thing you know he's on the floor and Lyric out of breath her two bags in her hand.
"WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT" I ask.
"BOOM" She kicks the worker that is now on the floor and we run out of the store.
"I THANK YOU FOR SAVING MY LIFE I LOVE YOU" I give her a hug and she's checking her receipt.
"Hmm I spent about forty dollars there so I can spend about I don't even know more" She puts her receipt away and I let go of her. "You're welcome by the way"
"Let's go to Forever 21 and you can't leave me alone I'm scarred" I link arms with her and drag my cousin to the store.
Once we step inside I go straight to the graphic t-shirts and start to pick some out. I look up and a worker is approaching me, another boy worker. I hide inside the racks. My heart beating so fast. As someone opens the clothes like a curtain I thought I was doomed, I thought someone was going to reach out and grab me and murder me that second like there is no tomorrow.
But it wasn't a murderer. It was a bright blue eyed worker with a blonde quiff.
"Please. Don't. Murder. Me." I say looking up into his eyes. My legs crossed to my chest and my arms holding them together. My eyebrows were furrowed and I quickly looked around and I saw my cousin hysterically laughing at me behind the worker. The 'workers' tags name is Luke Hem? What.
"I promise I won't" he smiles and his Australian accent fully hits me like a tornado. He then gives a hand out to me. I look at the hand and then the floor and take it. I can still hear Lyric hysterically laughing and almost snorting.
"Thanks Luke Hem" I say looking down at the floor, not being able to look him in his icy blue eyes, embarrassed.
He chuckles, "It's actually Hemmings, but it couldn't fit on the name tag." He holds out a greeting hand, "and you're-"
"OH MY GOSH APRIL, LYRIC!" A fan goes up to me with some shopping bags on one hand. "Can we take a picture please?" She hands her phone to what seems her sister or mom and Lyric, the fan, and I smile as the person takes the picture. "Thank you so much!" She looks like she's tearing up. "I love you guys so so so much, I'm Jes by the way"
"It was nice meeting you Jes!" Lyric says.
"Have a nice day" I say as we pull back into one last hug.
"Oh, wait can you say 'I love you' for my friend Hailey?" She pleads.
"Anything for you" I say.
She takes the camera in her own hands now, starts recording and gives us a signal to start talking.
"Hi Hailey!" Lyric and I say in unison. "April here" I say. "And Lyric"
"We love you!"
"Okay thank you SO much" she's literally drowning in tears.
"Aw please don't cry! We love you okay!" We hug her and she leaves.
"April? Lyric? Ohh, you're those youtubers" Luke says making us turn around.
"Yeah I'm Charming April on YouTube" I look down still thinking about the 'thing' that happened earlier.
"I just wanted to give you guys a coupon... Here" he hands us each a colorful piece of paper. "If you need any help just ask me"
"Thanks" I walk away with Lyric.
"HAHAHAHA" she laughs. She actually almost falls to the floor. "YOURE HILARIOUS"
