Saved by the Bad Boy

Chapter Seven

"Okay shortcake, let's go."

As we went outside, Dylan's motorcycle was sitting there. I really missed it, but...my hair looks so good today.

We finally arrived at our destination...the mall?

"Dylan, why are we at the mall?"

"Well, you need a new wardrobe, while we are dating...and I wanna see you in a bunch of hot clothes," he said smirking.

"What do you think?"

I was wearing a crop long sleeve shirt with a pair of tight black jeans, and red platform heels. Dylan was drooling.

"How about you take a picture, it'll last longer," I said smirking.

"I'm okay, you could give me a fashion show tonight, with everything I buy you today, in private." Dylan is saying without breaking our stare, smirking at me. My cheeks burst into flames.

"I have such an effect on you," he said chuckling.

We bought that outfit, and went through the rest of the mall buying shoes, purses, and other outfits. At the end of this day, I had thirty jumbo bags of clothes, shoes, and accessories. We finally went back to Dylan's house. How does Dylan have so much money?

"Dylan, how do you have so much money?"

"Well, when my older brother died, he put me in his will, and he had a lot of money since he was a doctor, but he didn't have a wife or kids, and he didn't talk to my parents anymore, so I was the closest thing to family he had, and our little sister, but she was only a baby when he was still alive. We were always best friends, even though there was an age gap between us." He was looking down at the floor.

"If you don't mind me asking, how did he pass away?"

"No it's ok, when he got home from a long day at the office, he suddenly had a heart attack, and passed."

I felt the need to hug Dylan. He was shocked at first, but then joined in my embrace.

"Shortcake, do you mind staying with me tonight again..." His voice was shaky, I knew I needed to stay with him.

"Sure," I said with a smile.

"You know, before you woke up this morning, I cleaned my room, so we can sleep there, or down here again."

"Let's sleep in your room, cause my back was killing me this morning," I said laughing.

"Who knew my girlfriend was such a geezer," he said laughing, then realized what he said.

Girlfriend...it was so weird to hear, I mean we we're fake dating, but we've been acting like a real couple for the past week...its been nice. But I can't let it get to my head, or I'll end up getting hurt in the end.

He quickly went upstairs, and I ran over to my house to get more things. I'm feeling things for him, that I'd never thought I'd feel for him, and he said he felt the same way, but I know he was lying...I mean who can like someone like me?

When I got back to his house, he was going through an album. I think I saw a baby picture of a young (and adorable) Dylan Anderson. As he flipped the page, I saw a picture of him and his brother. He froze and then smiled. Just then, I heard someone burst through the door.

"PICKLES!" I hear as a little girl comes running towards Dylan, and jumps in his arms.

"Hey banana," he said smiling and chuckling at her. I'm so confused with the food nicknames. As I was looking at them, the young girl turned her head at me.

"Pickles, who is that?" She had long brown hair and pale skin. She was very cute.

"Oh, this is my girlfriend Riley...and Shortcake, this is my little sister Hannah Banana."
Ok I get the nicknames now...except for pickles.

"You are dating Pickles?" I nodded my head but I looked confused.

"She calls me pickles, cause like Dyl Pickle..." he was smirking at me waiting for me to laugh, which I did.

Hannah began to glare at me, but in a cute way.

"Don't worry banana, you will always be my favorite girl." She smiled and gave him a big hug.

"So how old are you?" I asked.

"I'm five," she said looking proudly.

"Pickles...why do you call your girlfriend shortcake?"

"Well she's very short, and she's sweet so I call her shortcake."

My cheeks felt hot.

"Ok Banana, how about I give you a bath, and get you ready for bed ok?"

"Ok." She ran up the stairs and Dylan chased after her but stopped for a minute.

"Hey shortcake?"

"Yeah?"

"Thanks for being so nice to my sister, she has trouble communicating with new people, and you're the first person I've seen her talk to normally." He had a slight grin on his face. He ran back upstairs, and I heard the water faucet for the bathtub turn on and Hannah splashing the water causing Dylan to laugh. I never thought I would see this side of Dylan...and I really like it.

"She's asleep now," he said sitting beside me on the couch.

"Dylan..." I asked nervously.

"Yeah..." he said confused.

"Where are your parents, if you don't mind me asking."

"No it's okay, my parents are divorced, and my mother is a fashion designer and my father is a international lawyer, so I never see them...and Hannah stays at my grandmothers house, and comes here every two or three days..." he said looking down at the ground.

"I'm sorry I shouldn't have ask---"

Just then Dylan looked deeply into my eyes and....
