Joselyn's POV
"I'm surprised we got to the mall alive with the way you were driving," Saira said.
"I'm surprised I didn't get caught by the police," I whispered to her.
"That too," she replied.
We walked into the mall and we went in different directions. Saira took upstairs and I took downstairs. I went into Forever 21, Pink, any store that caught my attention I went into. Saira and I regrouped and got some food.

"Any luck?" I asked.
"No. You?" she said.
"Nothing," I replied. "Wet Seal wouldn't even take me."
"With our luck, our chances of finding a job is one in 100," Saira said.
"Looking for a job girls?" someone asked.
"Yeah. We've been-" I start to say and I turn around to see Jackie. "You!"

"Yes it's me," she says. "I heard about your house getting burned down. So terribly sorry."
"You're not sorry. You're here to start some drama. Save it for Broadway, sweetie," I said. "Maybe Hollywood if you're lucky."
"You need to get your attitude checked," she said.
"You need to get your face checked after I'm done with you!" I exclaimed as I get up ready to beat her. If she wanted drama, she was going to get some.

Saira's POV
I got up ready to hold Joselyn back to keep us from getting kicked out the mall.
"You better watch it. Grayson wouldn't be too happy if you ruined his reputation," Jackie says. "As for me, I'd never do that!"
"Yeah right. You're just thirsty for Grayson but you can't have him because he's mine. BACK OFF!" Joselyn replies angrily.
I grabbed her arms so she wouldn't hit her.
"You're right. I do want Grayson, but I'm not thirsty and clingy like you."

"You're J!" Joselyn yells.
"What are talking about?" Jackie questioned.
"You're J. You're the one who burned down our house. You're the one who's been texting me and calling me. You're really bad at getting revenge," Joselyn shots.
"Maybe I am. Maybe I'm not," Jackie said smirking and turns around to walk away. Once she's gone, I let go of Joselyn.
"That girl's got a lot of nerve showing her face here," she says.
"Let's just get back to the job hunting. We'll deal with her later," I reply. "Do I need to stay with you so you don't wreak havoc?"
"No. I'll be fine. I'll wreak havoc later," Joselyn replied.
We went our separate ways. I took downstairs while Joselyn took upstairs. We regrouped around five.
"I managed to get Forever 21 to consider me," I said.
"I managed to get no one to consider me," Joselyn replied.
"We'll try again in the morning okay?" I said.
"Okay."

We started to make our way out the mall when we see Jackie and Grayson kissing! Joselyn rolls up her sleeves, puts her hair up, and marches over to them. I let her go. I could hear her screaming from across the mall. I blended in with crowd and walked towards the exit. I stood there and watched. Joselyn swings at Jackie and Jackie falls to the ground. She looked out cold. Then she starts yelling at Grayson.
"HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME GRAYSON?! ME!"
I could see her tears from a mile away.
Grayson was talking to her and clearing things up I guess. Joselyn says something and walks over to me.
"Let's go," she said.
"What did he say?" I asked as we walk across the parking lot.
"He said that Jackie was trying to sabotage our relationship. He said he didn't mean any harm. He wanted forgiveness."
"Then what did you say?"
"I told him I'll think about it and walked away."
"You're not gonna leave him hanging are you?" I ask.
"Who said anything about keeping him hanging?" she says as we're climbing in the car.
She turns on the ignition and we drive out the parking lot.
"Where are we going?" I ask.
"To Cameron's place."

Tori's POV
What a slow day! I got off work and text the girls saying I was just going to walk home. After this morning, I wasn't ready to die. Crystal texted us in the group chat saying she was getting picked up by someone. *cough* Myles *cough*. Saira had some luck finding a job. Joselyn not so much. Leigh said she was riding with Joselyn and Saira. I prayed they wouldn't die. I was halfway home when I see a car riding beside me slowly. The world window rolled down to reveal Dylan.
"Hey Tori!"
"Hey," I replied.
"You wanna ride?" he asked.
"That would be nice," I said.
He stops the car and I climb in.
"So how was your day?" he asked when I climb in.
"Slow but fine. How was yours?" I reply.
"Pretty good. Thanks for asking," he said with a smile.
I smile too.

We were quiet. I stared out the window at the people walking by. Dylan broke the silence.
"Whatcha think about?"
"About you," I said grinning turning to look at him. "You're the perfect person for me. I've never met anyone like you."
This made him blush. We pulled up to my house.
"Thanks for the ride," I say.
"You're welcome," he replies.
I kiss him on the cheek and climb out the car.
