Starting Over

The Deal

Recap: "Hey I'm gonna go call someone. I think you'll like him."

Him? I can't let a "him" see me like this. I slowly get up and go to the sink while grabbing a napkin. I dampen the napkin before I use it to wipe my face. My makeup is all runny and I look like shit. Good thing I keep my make up bag in my purse.

After doing my makeup again, I go back to the paper towels and use them to scrub the ranch off my white shirt. Oh no. A wet white shirt and a black lacey bra? That doesn't mix well.

Before I could change Emily comes through the bathroom door. She looks at me with pity. "I'm sorry this happened."

"It's fine. I'm better now. I just need to change the we can go back to shopping." I say while pulling my shirt over my head. "Hey. Will you choose a shirt from that bag over there for me to wear?" I say while rummaging through another bag for a new bra.

"Sure." She says. Just then the door opens and a guy walks in. Oh god. It's "him".

Woah. His eyes are stunning. They are crystal blue with a slight tint of green. His jaw line. I don't even know what to say about it. It's just carved by the god himself.

He looks straight at me and catches me staring.

"Uhh. Hi." I say shyly. He looks at me and smiles. "What are you doing in the girl bathroom?"

"Well," he looks at me and sighs "Emily called me and told me to come and cheer up her friend. Uhm. You.. uhh."

He points at me and I look down and see that I am still shirtless. Oh god. This is so embarrassing. Oh well. I laugh silently to my self.

"Yeah, umm. I was changing when you walked in so. Yeah. I'm just gonna go get. Yeah. I need a shirt."

"Here. I chose this one." Emily says quietly while looking at the ground.

Gee thanks Emily. Couldn't have given me that when you first chose it?

"I'll just be a minute." I say while walking into the big stall with the shirt and a new bra. I begin to change as I hear Emily start to whisper with him.

"Liam. She needs some cheering up. Please just do that for me"

"Him" has a name I think to my self.

"Fine. What am I supposed to do. I don't know anything about her. I don't know what cheers her up."

"Just ask her if she wants to go eat or something." Emily says, still whispering, "I don't know. But if you don't do this for me I will come to your house and chop off your manly parts while your sleeping. Now GO! Maybe you'll end up being friends."

"Fine. But just because you asked nicely"

"Oh, shut up!"

"So, what kind of things do you like to do?" Liam asks me while we are eating french toast at a restaurant in the mall.

"Umm. Well, I like to draw alot and play volleyball." I say while thinking for other things to say because I sound lame.

We talk for the rest of our breakfast together until the waiter brings the bill. I offer to pay for the food but he rejects my offer. We end up arguing over who is going to pay and soon enough, he pays.

"So, Emily told me you guys were shopping. Did you get all of it done?" Liam asks.

"I guess. I'm done now. I don't wanna drag you through shops" I say looking down to make sure I don't fall.
