Closing up the store, me and Kendra decided to do some night shopping. We never had time in the day time to shop except for weekends.

"Hey so I heard you talking to Aiden" Kendra spoke as we entered the mall. I glanced at her surprised that she knew I was talking to him. I was about to ask how she knew, "I heard you yelling a little and the only other person I know that makes you tick easy besides me" Kendra smirked, "is Aiden. So I put two together and yeah" Kendra explained.

"Wow good work there detective Kendra. Why don't you work for the police department as your side job" I said sarcastically. Kendra just made a haha-very-funny face.

I wanted to go to the food court first but Kendra wanted to go to Forever 21, so we split up and decided to meet up in about thirty minutes at Victories Secret.

Without thinking twice, I headed towards Panda Express and waited in line. I got my usual which consisted of brown and orange chicken. I also ordered a small sprite. Paying for the food, I headed towards an empty table that looked somewhat clean. I started eating when my phone buzzed in my pocket.

Who the hell is disturbing me when I'm eating!!

I took out my phone to see an unknown person texted me. Maybe Kendra used someone else's phone to text me? I opened the message to see,

Unknown: I see you

Me: Who the hell is this?

Unknown: Awww, how are you going to make friends with that attitude.

I have heard that phrase before. Who was it? After some thinking it hit me. It was Aiden who had said it to me on the call earlier.

Me: Aiden?

I look around to see where he is, but he is no where in sight.

Unknown: There we go smarty pants

Me: Um how did you get my number?

Barf face: Come on I'm Aiden. All I had to do was ask around

Me: HAHAAHA very funny. NO seriously how did you get my number?

The only person who has my personal number is Kendra.

Stalker: My brother gave it to me

Me: Lance? How did he get it?

Stalker: Oh you know him too I see. Well as you know he dropped by earlier to your store to meet, Kendra?

Me: Yes she is my friend and co-partner

Stalker: Ya so Lance got her number and Kendra gave him your personal number so he could text you if he had to tell you anything about the party. I asked him and bam here we are :)

I am going to kill Kendra. I quickly eat my food, sad that I couldn't savor the flavor. I threw out my trash and made a mad dash to Forever 21. Seeing that only 15 minutes had passed, I'm pretty sure she's still there.

I felt a hand around my shoulder all of a sudden. I look to see a dude but his hood was blocking his face.

"Excuse me? Do I know you?" I asked suspiciously. The stranger turned his head only to see that the stranger was Aiden.

"Hey Petunia" Aiden said cheerfully as he walked aside of me.

"Are you following me now?" I asked biting on my cheek in frustration. First the nice attitude on the phone and now here he is talking to me like we were old pals.

"Please darling I got better things to do than follow you around. I was just hanging around, had time to spare" Explained Aiden as he took down his hoodie.

Just hanging around, sure does sound better than following me. Not wanting to talk anymore to the Abercrombie model next to, I quickened my pace. Now I'm not admitting that he is one, I've seen better.

No you haven't Rosie, tricking yourself won't work you fool

The only reason I'm saying this is because every girl that we had passed has been looking at him like he was some Greek God or something. And all the looks I've been getting are the exact opposite.

Soon enough I or we reached Forever 21. I have a feeling someone is going to die today in this very store. I even know  the name. Kendra Fields.

Kendra has said earlier that she needed new pair of jeans, so I headed towards the jeans area. I look behind me to tell Aiden to stop following me, only to see that he was no where in sight.

I guess he got the hint then. Reaching the jeans area, I start looking for Kendra. After a couple of minutes of looking and finding a cute pair of shorts, I find Kendra texting on her phone.

Probably texting Lance

My phone starts ringing and 'I like to move it move it' song plays. That's the ringtone I gave for Kendra whenever she calls.

Kendra must have heard it, since only a few feet away, because she turns her head in my direction.

Quickly ending the call, "Hey Rosie, your done eating already?" Kendra questioned looking at her phone.

Yes because someone gave someone my number and then that someone gave his brother my number.

"Well you see here Kendra" I say as I start walking slowly towards her. "I was eating when some unknown person texted me and I thought maybe it was you. But it wasn't, it was Aiden" I finish, now right in front of a nervous Kendra.

I wasn't finished though, "so I asked him how he got my number because we all know that the only person who has my personal number is you" I point my finger at Kendra to prove my point and just like that she cracked.

"Okay it was me! I'm sorry I didn't know that Lance would give him your number" Kendra spoke quickly.

"Lance is his brother, of course he would give him the number" I say in a 'duh' tone.

"He just texted your right? It's not like he followed you" Kendra says in a steady tone. I put my hand on my hip and give her a serous look. "Wait he did follow you?" Gasps Kendra

Shaking my head I say, "no he didn't but he was here in the mall and he happened to see me" I sigh at the end.

I explained more to Kendra about what happened before I found her. Buying the clothes she picked up, we headed out the store.

"So where is he now?" Kendra asked. I told her I didn't know honestly where he went but I was glad that he was gone.

We roamed around for about two hours before we decided to call it a night and head home. Just before we stepped out the door, I swore I heard my name.

I stopped walking and turned around to see who it was. All I could see were unfamiliar faces.

It was probably all the different nosies

I tuned back and caught up with Kendra who didn't even know I was gone. My phone buzzed in my pocket. I take it out to see I had revived a message from Aiden,

Stalker: Goodnight :)
