Brooklyn~ 

I hold up a skirt to show Leah and she scrunches her nose. 

"Hell no mother fudger!" Leah screams sliently and takes it away from me. "Where has your fashion sense disappeared to when I left you here alone!?" She asks me, searching the clothing rack. 

"I thought it was nice." I shrug and adjust my training bag, it's becoming a bit heavy to tell you the truth... 

"Exactly what I just said... I shouldn't have left you sweetie." She laughs and picks out a black 'skin tight' skirt and hands it to me. "Off to the dressing rooms you go human! Otherwise I'll bite you." She jokes. 

I laugh and take the skirt. "Thanks Leah, I'm a lucky one to have such a artist." 

"Oh yes, you are." She nods, shooing me off. 

I shut the curtain on in the small dressing room and look at myself after putting on the skirt, yes... this was me, and my vampire friend was a fashion queen... I walk out and Leah gasps playfully and mentions me to spin, I do that and she eyes me like I'm covered in gold. 

"If you don't buy that my friend... we're going to have problems." She says. 

"Of course we are." I say. "But we'll have to put that aside, because this is what I'm buying this fine afternoon." 

"Yes!" She squeals. 

I roll my eyes at her and smile, I've missed shopping with her, she always made it sound, and look like it was a game and a fun one at that. 

"So.." She murmurs while we're in line. "I'm sorry about yesterday or whatever, I have to learn to shut my mouth sometimes." 

I frown. "What? No! I didn't get hurt by it." I smile at her. "I'm fine." 

"Tristan told us that you took it badly." She winces. "Did I make you think some nonsense?" She smiles faintly. 

"I wouldn't call it nonsense..." I mumble. 

"I heard that missy." 

"Okay, okay... I thought some things, but Tristan fixed it all up." I surrender. 

"You sure you don't want to talk about something?" She asks. 

I finish up with paying and we walk out of the shop, and towards the food court.... for me at least, I was hungry for a burger. 

"Leah, I'm happy with Tristan, and I have no bad thoughts, what so ever." I smile at her. 

We head over to Burger King, yes... it's not as healthy as example, SubWay... but I was in the mood to cringe in a burger and a pack of fries... it happens once in a while.. 

"Okay, I take that as a answer, but one more thing?" 

"Sure, what?" I ask her, picking a table to put down my stuff. 

"You love Tristan right?" 

"Of course, more than anything." I say, grinning. 

"Then... would you change for him too?" She asks me shyly. 

I widen my eyes, staring down at her in surprise. "Ah... I don't..." 

"Think about it sweetie, it's not bad being a vampire really, except the blood part... but seriously, eternity with the one you love? It's a gift.." 

"I..I'll be back Leah." I say and walk off to the lines... 

I couldn't think about this right now..
