"What?!" Kendall reacted at my story of Gino. She walked around the table and stood next to me "You killed Gino?!"

I ran towards her and glued my hand to her mouth "Shut up!"

She pushed back my hand and cleares the hair from her face.

I took a deep breath and acknowledge "I don't think I killed him"

"You don't think you killed him?" At this people started to take notice. We were at my favorite ice cream place Jimmy's.

"Listen I don't know Kendall okay?" I sat back down ans sighed. "I never stepped at the hospital anyways" I shrugged and took a spoon of my favorite ice cream Cookies and Cream.

"You didn't? You haven't?" She kept snapping. "Why?! Are you insane?!"

I looked at the floor.

"Maddie tell me you at least paid for the recovery" She mumbled sitting back down.

I dip my spoon in the ice cream and said "How can I- I never went"

"Maddie you need to go" She whispered looking around. "You need to know if he's okay"

"He IS okay" I snapped.

"You're scared" She smiled.

"What?" I frowned and took another bite of my ice cream.

"You're scared of knowing if you hurt him" She said and placed her black sunglasses on.

"Whatever Kay, I have to go" I grabbed my keys and stoop up.

I heard her say "What if you didn't?"

I never turned back. I kept going until I reached my car.

I've been working at Forever 21 since I'm in junior year. I have this one good friend, her name is Kate. She also works here. Right now we were both on each cash register.

"So could you pay for the bills?" I laughed as Kate told me her story. Kate was a really awesome friend. She is light hearted, funny and overall a really great person to be with.

Kate has red perfect hair. She's always trying to convince me to have red hair. She's light skinned with hazel eyes- her height is just like mine which is good because I don't feel tiny next to her.

"I could pay for the bills" She chuckled folding some unwonted clothes. "But I didn't" She chuckled.

"What?" I gasped "Kate!" I said as I grabbed my client's clothes and accessories. "Did you find everything you want?" I asked her with a bright smile on my face.

She nodded in response offering me the same smile. I searched for the price tags of each item and said "That'll be $48.95"

She paid me cash and so I gave her change "Thanks for shopping here" I said as I gave her the bag full of her items. She also said thanks and walked away.

I turned back to Kate and snapped "Why didn't you pay your bills?!"

She rested her arms on the counter and chuckled "Girl the rose iphone!"

You've got to be kidding me!

Before I could answer another client came in "Did you get everything you wanted?" I asked holding up a black and white long sleeved shirt, the client said yes and typed something her phone. I folded the shirt and places in inside of the pink bag. "$7.99"

I couldn't turn back to Kate because I had a line people waiting.

After the long line I had to switch jobs and know I had to take care of the fitting rooms.

"How many are they?" I asked the girl holding a few shirts and pants.

"Five" She held up the number 5 on her hand. The girl looked about 15 years old. She was very shy though.

I nodded and clipped the paper number five on her hanger. "This way" I showed her to the last fitting room which she entered a few seconds later.

"Hello gorgeous" The most familiar voice surprised me.

I turned around and faced the person who was behind me "Josh!" I exclaimes folding him into a hug. There's nothing more I could need right now than a hug from this boy!

I quickly let go ans snapped "What are you doing here?" I snapped as my eyes widened making sure non of the employees were around.

"I came here to see my favorite girl" He said before shrugging.

"You're too cute" I gave him a quick kiss and snapped "Now get out before you get me in trouble"

"You owe me a date" He said.

"Yeah well we can go after I'm done" I turned him around and pushed him. Which was no use because he is way taller and way stronger.

He chuckled and turned around making me stumble.

"Excuse me, I want to try this on" A client said looking between us. "How many?" I asked walking towards the front of the fitting rooms.

"Two" She said following me.

I clipped the paper and showed her to her room.

"Thanks" She smiled locking the door behind her.

"See you're getting me in trouble" I chuckled going back to Josh.

"Excuse me" The fifteen year old gave me what she didn't want and walked away.

"Goodbye Josh" I kissed him on the cheek and waved him off.

After my shift was done I made my way to Josh's house. I opened the door with the key he gave me and walked into his room. "Hello" I said as I passed him a Starbuck's drink.

"Thanks babe" He said glancing towards me as I sat on his floor.
He was playing on his play station 4 when I walked in.

"So about that date" I spilled drinking from mine.

Josh paused the game. "What do you have in mind?"

"Can't you work something out?" I whined.

***

"$6.79" The guy told Josh. Josh paid the guy and gave us cotton candy and drinks.

"Thanks" I smiled and kissed his cheek.

"You look so funny on your toes" He mocked me.

"Shut up! It's not my fault you are too tall"

"It's not my fault you're so tiny"

I gasped but didn't say anything; I stared at him as we walked towards the Ferris wheel.

"Stupid" I yelled as we reached the line.

"What?" He asked.

"You're stupid" I shrugged holding my laughter.

"Why would you be calling me stupid?" He frown pretending to be insulted.

"I-" I was cut off by my phone. I pulled it out of my pocket and saw Kendall's face on my phone. I decline the call and pushed the phone back in my pocket.

"As I was saying" I turned back to Josh "I-" I was once again interrupt by my phone. This time it was a text from Kendall.

It's about Gino.
