(Aquarius)

It's been a day. Literally a day.

Ariel still isn't talking and barely eats.
Bella is still her bubbly self probably because Ashton isn't going to be gone for long.
Aqua she uh well she OK I guess there has been some tears but she's been strong.
Raven well she's kinda like Ariel but she's eating like a lot I'm kind of concerned.
And me oh me oh my, it's different it's like Harry was just a dream or something.

We have to go to school tomorrow. Great. It's seriously going to be horrible.

Today I just decided we need a girls day out, we're going to the mall and watch a movie and maybe even eat at Ariels favorite place.

I'm really really hoping that Ariel eats and talks. Because with out Ariels sassy self it's just not the same, like we're all in a zombie apocalypse.

"So Aqua and Bella you want to go to the mall" I ask.

They both nod and go to get dressed.

2 down 2 to go.

"Hey Raven" I say

"What" she says looking at me.

"You want to go to mall with all of us" I ask

She smiles and gets up.

She walks with me to Ariels room but goes into her bathroom.

"Ariel hunny" I say.

She doesn't move, she won't even look at me.

I sigh and sit at the end of her bed.

"The girls and I are going to the mall you want to come" I say.

She shows no reaction but get up and grabs clothes out of her closet.

I smile. Thats a start. I think.

I myself get in the shower and get dressed.

By the time I'm done everyone is down stairs and ready. Except I can't find Ariel.

"Hey guys were did Ariel go" I ask.

They shrug. "OK maybe she's in the bathroom, let's wait in the car for her"

They nod and one by one they walk out the door. But they each stop once they go outside side.

I push through them to see why they stopped. And sure enough there's Ariel.

Sitting on the curb holding something.

We all walk over to her. She is holding a shirt. A guys shirt actually.

By the way she is holding it I can tell it's Liams.

Raven goes and puts a hand on her but Ariel shoots up and goes on the house.
Perfect, just what should have happened. I think

We all walk towards the door but Ariel comes out with Liams shirt on.

She hops in the car and we follow her.

To the mall we go.

(Mall)

As soon as we walk into the mall Bella and Raven head for Victoria's Secret but me a
Aqua and Ariel stay behind.

"Hey how about we go to Claire's" I ask

Aqua nods and Ariel just follows.

This is going to be a long day. I think.

We get into Claire's and Aqua starts finding new earrings for her to buy.
Mean while me and Ariel just look around.

"Hey Ariel hunny you have to talk"I say.

"You have to, seeing you like this over a guy, it's hurting me and the girls, you aren't eating and you need to you've lost like what 20 pounds" I say tears welling up inside of me.

She just looks at me and walks away.

I do let a tear fall but then tell Aqua to come on.

We text the girls to tell them that we are leaving and to finish up on whatever they are doing.
They answer with an OK, and we are off chasing Ariel.

We reach the car and find Ariel and the girls in it. I sigh and hop into the drivers seat.

"That quite dramatic" Bella says.

"Just a little, but ever since the guys came and left that's our life, DRAMATIC" Raven exclaims.

We all just nod in response.

The mall didn't go so hot so maybe the movie we picked out will cheer all of us up.

I turn into the movie theater parking lot and find a parking spot without any problem.

We get our tickets at the counter and get popcorn and sit down in the theater.

It was actually Ravens idea to watch the PEANUTS movie but I guess we all wanted to see it.

During the movie I look over at the others and they are smiling and having a great time. Then I look over to Ariel and she's curled up into a ball, but still watching the movie. Which in this case is still good.

After the very funny but confusing movie we pile into the car and we drive off to Ariel's favorite place to eat out.
I don't know how well this will go because Liam took her here for their first date so yeah. It's worth a try though.

As we arrive at Taco-Bell the girls all look at Ariel, and for once she's actually showing a reaction. Her eyes become wide and she shoots a death glare at me. I smile weakly at her and look back on the road.

We finally sit down to eat and Ariel is still glaring at me. She didn't order anything but you can tell she's hungry so I got her some nachos, like the good friend I am.

Our food arrives and Ariel doesn't eat anything. Like at all.

"Ariel sweet heart?" Aqua says.

She just looks at her.

"You need to at least eat a taco" Aqua says passing her a taco.

Ariel looks at it and slowly unwraps it.
She takes one bite and swollos it.

"Wooohoooo" Bells screams.

"Woohooo" We all say in response.
We all start clapping and cheering.

She smiles. HA SHE SMILES. Omg I can't believe she showed another emotion.

Ariel finishes the taco and then we all throw away our trash and leave.

As we travil home I turn up the radio and the girls start singing, other than Ariel of course because she is done with her emotion phase.

■■■■■■■

As we walk through the door of Ariels house the phone rings.

Me and Aqua drop our things and run to the phone.

We pick it up instantly.

"Hello" Aqua says.

"Hey fishy" A familiar voice says through the phone.

Aqua screams and waves her hands.

And by her reaction we now exactly who it is.

Ariel leaves and goes up to her room.

Raven and I exchange a look of 'should we go after her' but we decide it's better not to push her to do anything more.
Everyone (other than Ariel) sits down and waits there turn to talk to one of the guys.
And thats it. It was a very good day. Ariels a work in progress.
