Little Rose

♡Six♡

The mall was crowded with people. Everyone moves at a fast pace and doesn't care who's in their way.

I hold Andre's hand the entire time so we won't get separated so easily. He leads me to a store filled with pink stuff. I love pink but sometimes it can be too much.

"Go ahead and pick out some clothes from here. When you're done, call me over and I'll pay." He grins and pats my head. I nod and start to look at a rack of clothes.

I spend about 20 minutes looking around and so far I've picked out 6 tops and 4 bottoms. I hope this isn't too much. I've never paid attention to prices or anything like that. I would just throw them in the cart.

Andre walks over to me and smiles at the pile is my arms. "Good job. I'll take those out of your hands."

"I still feel bad for you guys taking care of me. I promise I'll find a way to pay you back."

"Please. It's nothing to us. You don't have to pay us back." He reassures me. I sigh in frustration.

He pays for everything and we look around some more. Three stores later and I now have a complete wardrobe.

We pass by a store and I notice something in the window. I stop in my tracks and let go of his hand. When I do, he notices and turns around.

The name of the store says Littles Paradise. I've never heard of it before.

"Did you want to go inside?" He says with hope in his voice. I smile at him and lead him inside.

There were onsies in every color and pattern hanging on the walls, pacifiers on shelves, and so many things that peeked my interest.

"Can I get that?" I say to Andre, pointing at a blue onsie with a unicorn on the front. I've always wanted a onsie but could never find them in stores. Whenever I tried to look them up online, I could only find ones for babies.

"Of course babygirl." I blush at the nickname.

We got more onsies and some stockings too. I reeeeaaallly wanted the pacifier that was in the window, but I was too afraid to ask. I would look over at it occasionally and try to work up the courage to ask.

"You've got enough clothes to last you years." Andre teases. I giggle and walk beside him with bags in our arms. We were about to leave until I stopped him by pulling on his shirt.

"You said I could ride the merry-go-round if I was good." I look into his eyes and give him puppy eyes. "You're right. And yes, you've been a very good girl today."

I clap my hands excitedly and we head over to the merry-go-round.

He takes my bags from me and helps me on the unicorn. "Hold on tight babygirl." He walks off and watches me from the railings as the ride starts. I start moving up and down with the unicorn.

Andre waves at me and I wave back. He takes a picture of me while I was laughing. I forgot how much fun these were!

The ride ends and Andre helps me off. "Do you want me to carry you?" He whispers to me. His cool breath sends shivers down my spine. I nod and we leave the mall.

Back at his house, Leo and Micah sit on the couch.

"You're back!" I cheer. They turn around and see me and Andre carrying alot of bag.

"Did you buy the whole store?" Micah chuckles.

We set down the bags and join them on the couch. "So did you get what you needed?" Leo asks, booping me on the nose. I scrunch my face and nod.

"I even got some onsies!"
