-It has been a week since Charlotte has come back, and she is going through her clothes-

Charlotte: I have no cute clothes ;-; -throws a bright, yellow shirt in the large garbage bag, along with almost her entire close-up

Ren: -holding Acelyn, sitting on Charlotte's bed- Well... I have a few hundreds in my wallet. We could go get you new ones?

Charlotte: We're going to need more than a few hundreds where I want to go...

~~~~~~~~~~

Charlotte: -sets her head in her hands on the counter- Hey, Brannon?

Brannon: Hey, Charlotte? -copies Charlotte-

Charlotte: Remember that box of hundreds? Did you guys use that at all?

Brannon: I think five hundred. We had to get groceries.

Charlotte: Okay! Oh, um, where is it?

Brannon: ...In the closet where we last left it?

Charlotte: Upstairs or downstairs?

Brannon: Our room.

Charlotte: -nods- Okay. Thanks, love! -runs back upstairs to the room and grabs the large box from inside her closet-

Ren: Holy fuck Charlotte where did you get all that money?! 0-0

Charlotte: Um... -shakes her head, trying not to remember- I don't wanna talk about it... -starts straightening a bunch of hundreds out, putting them in her wallet-

Ren: Charlotte. -sets Acelyn down, as she is sleeping, and Crosses her arms-

Charlotte: Florence. -Crosses her arms-

Ren: Where did you get the money?

Charlotte: I really don't want to talk about it... -adds three more hundreds and closes the box, putting it back in the closet-

Ren: How many hundreds did you take?

Charlotte: -bites her lip and turns away, thinking of the depressive state- Twenty...

Ren: Spill it. Now.

Charlotte: Please.. I don't want to talk about it... -shoves her wallet in her back pocket and slips on some flip flops-

Ren: -sighs- Fine. We'll talk about it later. -slips on her own flip flops-

Charlotte: -puts the wallet in her purse and walks downstairs with Ren-

Brannon: -from the living room, watching the two girls try to escape at the back door- Charlotte!

Charlotte: -grabs and looks at him- Yes?

Brannon: How long will you be gone?

Charlotte: Um... We'll be back around eight. -grabs Ren's arm and rushes to her car-

Ren: -buckling her seatbelt- Charlotte, you seem to be in a hurry.

Charlotte: Because I wanna go to a different type of clothing store! -starts driving and puts on her sunglasses-

-Charlotte drives to the next town over, to a a dark looking clothing store called Paraphernalia-

Ren: What's this?

Charlotte: Paraphernalia. It's a rocker clothing store. -gets out and walks inside-

Ren: -shrugs to herself and goes inside-

Charlotte: -looks around at all of the gothic like dresses- OH MY GOSH, REN, LOOK! -points at a dress-

Ren: -looks at the dress- Oh my gosh, it's so pretty!

Charlotte: -looks at the price tag- Oh my gosh, it's ten times prettier!

Ren: Why? -looks and sees that the price is $170- And it's cheap!

Charlotte: -sees a worker and taps her shoulder- Excuse me? What sizes does this dress come in?

Worker: This dress? That comes in sizes extra large, large, medium, small, and extra small.

Charlotte: So all sizes! Great! Would it be alright if I tried on a small size?

Worker: Of course! Would you like to try on a corset too?

Charlotte and Ren: -looks at each other-

Charlotte: No, I'll be alright with just the dress.

Worker: Alright. This way. -walks into the back-

Charlotte and Ren: -follows-

Worker: -pulls out a size small of the dress and hands it to Charlotte-

-Charlotte ends up buying two dresses, two large bags full of band tee shirts, one large bag full of dark, ripped pants, a pair of knee high boots, a black beanie, three chokers, and a large bag of makeup-

-Ren ends up buying a choker, a grey beanie, a small bag of makeup, and three band tee shirts-

-9:30 hits-

Charlotte and Ren: -walks in the front door-

Brannon: -holding a sleeping Acelyn- Where the hell have you guys been?

Charlotte: -holds the bags behind her back- Just doing a little shopping...

Ren: Why?

Brannon: Charlotte, you said eight. Not nine thirty.

Charlotte: I'm sorry... -tears start to form in her eyes-

Brannon: -sees- Are... Why are you crying?

Charlotte: -crying- Because you're mad at me and I made you worry and you probably don't trust me anymore...

Brannon: No, no, no, Hun... -holds her close- It's alright... No one was hurt, you made it home safe... It's perfectly fine...

Charlotte: -slowly wiping off tears- Are you sure...?

Brannon: -hands Acelyn to Ren- Charlotte... -pulls Charlotte into his lap on the couch- I promise you, sweetheart, whatever TJ did to you will not be done here... I'm not mad at you, and I'm not worried, and I trust you one hundred percent... As long as you made it home happy and safe, I'm one hundred percent happy.

Charlotte: Promise...?

Brannon: I promise.

Charlotte: -nods- Okay... I'm gonna take Acelyn upstairs and put this stuff away...

Brannon: Alright...

Charlotte: -pulls up her stuff and takes Acelyn upstairs-

Brannon: Hey, Ren?

Ren: Yeah?

Brannon: -looks at the stairs- I was going to do this today, but it's a little late now... -pulls out a small box- Do you think Charlotte will like it?

Ren: -opens the box to see a golden ring with a silver heart on it. Her eyes widen- Oh my gosh... She'll love it...

Brannon: You think so?

Ren: -Closes the box and gives it to Brannon- I know so.

Charlotte: -comes back down- Hey, Ren?

Ren: Yeah?

Charlotte: I forgot, um... -hands Ren a small box- It's your colored pencils and markers. Thanks for letting me use them.

Ren: Oh, no problem. -smiles and takes the box- I'll see you guys tomorrow?

Charlotte: Sure!

Brannon: Of course.

Ren: See ya. -leaves-
