A week pass by and Justin still hasn't returned. I was happy he didn't come, that way i pdon't worry about him hitting me but I worried because what is he doing? Me and chuck have been hanging out more. At first it was awkward because of the kiss but with time we got over it. We never talk about it cause there was nothing to talk about but chuck was a very cheerful person. He looks like a player but when you get through that wall he such a sweetheart.

"Get ready!" Chuck said grabbing the keys

"Well I don't really have to, where were are we going?"

"To get some clothes to get ready, if your going to stay here for another week you can atlease have clean clothes" he says grabbing his close and waving his other hand.

We walk out into his garage I see his black car again, I didn't know much about cars so I just go by colors. He opens the seat for me and puts on my seatbelt. He walked around to his set and starts the car. He opens the garage then closes it we hit the road and a few min later we enter the mall. The mall wasn't far. And the car ride was silent.

"We're here" chuck said opening the door. He grabed my door and walked me out like a gentlemen. "Thank you" I said bowing down, he chuckles and we continue walking into the mall

"What stores do you like?" I didn't go shopping ever so I was very confused, she would usually buy me clothes. "I have no idea" I said lowly "what do you mean? Have you never gone shopping?" I shook my head no. His pupil hot bigger. I understood how is it possible a 15 year old didn't go shopping.

"Okay well then you my lady, are going to forever 21, express, Carsons, call it spring, Charlotte Russe and more"

"Thank you" I whispered.

"No need you said I seemed selfish type, well I want to change that. Anything you need I'll buy it." He really did seem to change, me and chuck ended up holding hand in hand. I didn't mind it, surprisingly. I felt quite comfy with him, but not as comftable as I did with Justin.

"Let's go in here" he said already pulling my hand into express. Then reality hits me. There where no sleeves shirts! I start to panic a bit, my breath becoming heavier and shorter. Chuck hand was tightening so it made it a bit worst. "What's wrong?" Chuck said leaning in for a hug. We hug and tears come down. I hid my face into his chest. We still holding hands but hugging. I never told chuck about my cuts. Only Justin and that women knew that. I didn't want anyone to find out. I gave chuck the top layer icing of my life. Soon chucks pulls away. "Yulema why are you crying please I'm here"

I wipe my tears away. Snob one last time. "let's just say I don't like sleeve less shirts, I prefer long sleeves."

"Ohh okay, but that's nothing to cry about"

"I know I just, well you brought me here I didn't want to seem rude"

"Non sense anything for you, okay then let's check what they have" I nooded "and Yulema, crying doesn't look good on you" he chuckles, if only he knew.

Finally shopping was over. I ended up getting all long sleeves. Chuck thought a short sleeve would be good but I keeper arguing until he got me what I wanted. He ended up loosing that battle but I lost one too. I got some shirts that show my belly, and some high waisted pants. Chuck was so kind to buy me some clothes. I thank him and we walked to our car.

"Hungry?" He asked still staring at the road. "Umm well if you want to" I said a bit shy. He already brought me clothes, which is too much to ask for. "Yulema I asked if your hungry, but fine I'll take you out to eat anyways and just for that I'm taking you to a expensive restaurants" I open my mouth to say something but he quickly closed it. "Ohh and no salads your getting some protein and carbs in your boney body" he chuckled and I lightly follow along.

If only he knew, if only everyone knew.  I wondered, what would they're faces be when they figure it out? Who will figure it out?

"Yulema where here" I hear chuck say excitedly. I get out the car and walk to him. "What?" My face showed confusing as his showed a bit anger. "Yulema you know I always open the door for you. Always have and always will" I give a lightly and sincere smile. "Sorry" I said very light.

He grabs my hand and walks to the restaurant. Hand in hand we go up there o one of the waiters in the from. "Hello, welcome to the the classics, party of how many sir?" The waitress asked looking at her screen "2" chuck responds. The waitress looks up knowing it was a guy. Her eyes meet him, her body language quickly changes. She stands up straight, causing her plastic boobs to pop out. A seducing smile appeared. No I wasn't jealous I just never liked girls like that, they remind me of her.

Chuck kept staring but snapped out of it and walked me to the table. Chuck made me change so I was now wearing a long sleeve shirt that said 'messy hair don't care' and some tight jeans, they where light and black blue together, almost tie die but they weren't.

Chuck sat me done on one side and I sat on the other. "So, do you like this place so far?" Chuck asked starting conversations. "It's great, I mean I haven't really been to any restaurants so I can't judge" the same waitress comes. "Do you guys want something to drink?" She said staring at chuck. I ignored it I didn't want to cause any problems. "I'll have a beer please, and for her she'll have a.." He points at me " strawberry milk shake" I finished the sentence. I ignored the fact that a seventeen year old just ordered a beer.

We now where eating our food, I orderd a chessburger with fries. He got some spicy barbecue ribs with a side of fries with cheese on top.. Chuck was facing the back of the restaurant and so I was facing the front. I looked at every person who entered.

Then a group of guys caught my attention. I looked closely and notice they where guy friends from when I was little. But I only recognized 2. They talk to the waiter and they walk buy us. I ignored them, knowing it would be better. "Yule?" One of them asked. I don't turn to avoid anything, nothing good comes from that name."Yulema? Is that really you?" He asked taking a step back looking at me in the eyes. I nooded "I'm Dan, don't you remmember me," Dan. I haven't heard that name in a while, memories come back. "Yeah Dan, I remember you" I gave him a slightly smile. "Damm it's been long, what about-" I cut him off "10 years" wow 10 years,  "well hey where eating over there, and wait do you remmember my brother?" Brother? That part of my childhood was very blurry. I shake my head no when I see what I'm guessing is his brother approaching us. "What! You don't remmember me?"  He said. I shake my head no still a bit imberrased. "Aww come on Yule, last time we saw each other was when we where 5 and we where at your house." Then it all comes to me. "Stan" I say lightly. A smile appears on Stan, "finally she remembers" he said like he was ranking liars or something. "Okay well here's my number, if you ever want to contact me, maybe catch up. I think we interupted your date long enough"

"It's not a date" I respond quickly. "Ohh...well that's good, stan can actually have a shot with you" Dan said laughing and walking away.

I finally look at chuck, he looked angry. "What's wrong?" I asked "not a date?" His voice seemed to be a bit raised. "Yeah...." I said trailing off. " I thought we where on a date! And who are those guys? Why are you flirting with other guys?" Was chuck really jealous, cause I swear he was just flirting with another girl.

"Are you jealous? Cause I swear you where just flirting with another girl in front of me. And just so you know I wasn't flirting with them, it's called being kind. Plus I wasn't even going to call them!" My voice was getting higher, I was tired of everyone picking on me and screaming at me. I didn't want to be that shy girl anymore I wanted to be at lease a bit brave. "Really?" His voice was calming. "Yes, but does that even matter, last time i check im single"

"Yulema, I-I'm sorry, but I don't know what got over me I think I'm starting to develop feeling for you."

I can't believe it, why are people liking me all of a sudden I mean I don't look cute at all, I have big hair like mufasa, I have scars that can't be fix, I'm a fat girl no one wants. I am a broken girl, I'm that beer bootle in the trash, why does anyone want a empty beer, because that's me, I'm a empty soul, taking up space in the world.

"Chuck I think you drank too many beers" I didn't want to believe it. "Yulema Im not saying this because I'm drunk cause a 12 pack can't get me drunk, but I do think I'm starting to develop feeling"

"Chuck, I'm sorry but I don't believe you and honestly, I think it's time to go" I saw a very small tear grow on his eye, but it didn't fall. I sorta feel sorry for him,

The rest of the day was quite
