Safe and Sound

Chapter two

•Kenzies POV•

I practically sprint towards the doors, barley avoiding knocking over three shoppers. What can I say? I get a little excited when I go to the mall.

First stop is Forver 21, I mean how can you not love that place?

••••••••••••••••••••

Three hours later, here I am with about fifteen bags from about three stores. I really have to step up my game.

My phone starts playing "Stole My Heart" by One Direction, I look down to see Lindsey's number. I roll my eyes as I pick up the phone. I'll be honest, with all this shopping I forgot she ditched me.

"Hey Kenz" Lindsey chirps, in her usual happy attitude.

"Hey, so are you on your way? Becuase I just found the hottest pair of high-wasted shorts and-" I immediately start to ramble excitedly, but Lindsey cuts me off.

"Ummm well you see...Cam kinda wanted to go out to dinner with me and well..."

"You canceled right? I mean not to to be a cock block but you already cancelled shopping and we planned to go out to eat.."

"Aw come on babe! Cam misses me!"

"I just thought we could finally hang out!" I mumble, "You know what? Go. Have fun and don't wait up."

"Kenz, don't be like that! I have a boyfriend now, and I need to spend time with him. Once you'll get a boy, and that's when you'll understand" Lindsey says, fully unaware that her "relationship" will probably only last a week.

I shove my phone Into a random bag, not caring if I ever find it again. How many times does it take for me to realise that I come in second? I take a deep breathe while making my mouth form a huge fake smile.

I look around at my surroundings. I'm in dead centre of the mall, surrounded by stores with the cutest clothes, yet I can't imagine going and buying anything. I'm in too bad of a mood.

Remind me to thank Lindsey for that later. I walk towards the doors of the mall but I'm in too deep in thought to stop myself from colliding with a wall. Well, this is embarrassing.

I end up falling on my but, luckily with my bags still dangling from my arms.

"Ow" I say rubbing my forehead. Ok I hate walls.

"Oh My bad, sorry!" I heard a raspy voice say. I looked up to see a pair of dark green eyes. I suck in a breath as he flashes me a smile. Guess I didn't run into a wall after all.

"oh, no it was m-my fault..I wasn't really paying attention" I mumble. He reaches out his hand and I grab it as he easily pulls me up.

"Its okay, love" I practically melt right there, he has an accent. A British one. I take time to look at his full appearance. Jeans that hang dangerously low, a tight black shirt with White writing, black converse, and dimples, green eyes, and curly brown hair.

Oh my God.
