Love Me?

22: Shopping

LILY:

"Omigosh he's so hot," Abigail says.

"Whatever, you don't even know him for all you know he could be a total jerk," Sarah says.

"Your just jealous because Thomas isn't as cute as Jackson," Abigail responds.

They continue debating over which one of their maybe dates is better. I tune out and my thoughts take over. Thought of Blake and asking him out.

What if he says no? What if he never talks to me again? What if something goes wrong? What if I totally embarrass myself? What if he isn't as nice as I thought he was?

"Bang!"

I rub my head as I back up to see what happened. Evidentially, while I was walking I was so caught up in my thoughts I didn't see the sign right in front of me. Dang, that really hurt!

"I'm feeling the love guys," I say, seeing Abigail and Sarah laughing hysterically.

When we finally reach the mall, we head directly to the food court, to eat. I go simple with a subway sandwich, Sarah gets Taco Time and Abigail gets some sort of weird Thai food.

We sit down and eat our dinner.

"Are you guys scared to ask them out?" I ask.

"Ya, I am," Abigail says, "I've never asked a guy out before."

"What about you Sarah?"

"Not really," she replies, "I've asked a guy out before. It's really not that weird."

"Ya, and you know Thomas! I don't even know what Jackson is like," Abigail says.

"You were just saying how hot he is, so what"s the problem now?" she asks.

"I guess I'm just worried he's going to be some sort of player or something like that," Abigail responds.

"Well, he's friends with Blake and I can't imagine Blake having bad friends..." I say trying to help.

"He coul..." Sarah begins before I give her a glare and she stops.

After lunch, we go from clothes store to clothes store. We try on so many clothes that I can't even begin to count them and none of us have found the "perfect outfit" for the date. The date that we don't even know is going to happen yet. They could say no.

After a few hours, we all find cute dresses. I also get a pair of high top red converses, a pair of jeans, a few new shirts and a new pair of crazy leggings. I'm really happy because almost everything I get is on sale.

"You guys do realize that this is really gonna backfire if they say no," I say trying not to ruin their hopeful dreams of a triple date.

Sarah says, "Hey, I could always use a new dress. And I'll just use it for some party or something."

"Ya," Abigail agrees.

"Okay whatever."

We head back to the ship. It's getting towards the end of the day and we must ask them tonight. I can't ask Blake right now because there is a football game going. I just have to think of the perfect time and way to ask him out.
