It's A 1D Kind Of Thing

Fire Burning On The... Mall Floor?!

*Brianna's P.O.V*

"London, here we come!" I yelled, getting out of the cab. I did a little dance before I walked around the back of the cab, and met up with Aria. We then hooked arms, and walked into the Westfield Mall.

Once inside, my eyes widened as I looked around. The Westfield Mall was huge! It stood two stories high, and there were people everywhere. I grinned, and squealed a little.

I glanced at Aria, still squealing. She was looking quite terrified, because she didn't do well with crowds. "Wow! This is crazy!" I said, raising my voice over all the noise so she could hear me.

Aria nodded, horrified. "I know! There are so many people in here! This is way bigger than our mall back home!" She exclaimed, still focused on the crowd.

I placed my hand protectively on her shoulder. I stared her in the eyes. "Arianna Harrison. I will protect you from anything! I promise you will be fine!" I said, trying to calm her down.

My mom stood a few feet away. She had her hand on her hip and her eyes darted around wildly. This is what she did when she was thinking. Then, I saw her eyes light up as she turned to face us.

"How about this: Since this is your birthday trip Bria, you two can go explore the mall on your own! You two are both are eighteen afterall. But, you must be back here in three hours, got it?" She asked sternly.

Me and Aria exchanged an excited glance. "Got it!" We said in unison. My mom smiled at us. She reached into her light gray purse and pulled out a small striped gift box and then handed it to me.

As I had the box, she walked away towards the lounge area in the center of the mall. I watched her dissapear into the crowd, and then I turned back to Aria with the giftbox in my hand.

"Well, what are you waiting for Bria?! Open it already!" Aria said, urging me to open the box.

I shrugged my shoulders teasingly. "I don't know, I-"

"Just open it!" Aria shouted, interrupting me. I laughed, and carelessly ripped the wrapping paper off. I smiled as I carefully opened the lid to the tiny box. Inside, was a beautiful necklace with a diamond, a One Direction bracelet, and a $100 dollar gift card.

I smiled once again to myself as I closed the box. I put the box in the zipper pocket of my satchel. Once the box was secure, I looked back at Aria, who was waiting patiently.

"Okay, now that that's done, where would you like to go?" I asked as we started walking. Aria looked around at some of the stores that we passes, and then stopped as we walked by Claire's.

Aria grabbed my arm and halted me from going any farther. "Bria, can we pleeeaase go in there?" She pleaded.

I looked at her with wide-eyes. "Do you really think that I was going to pass up Claire's?" I asked with my left hand on my hip.

Aria grinned, and danced. She mouthed 'I Love You' to me, and rushed into Claire's. I followed her just as fast.

Inside Claire's, I glanced around. There was lots of jewelry, hair accessories, makeup and then, a whole wall was covered from top to bottom with One Direction accessories such as t-shirts, handbags, pillows, blankets, phone cases, and tons more!

I scanned the store, searching for Aria. I quickly found her, and saw that she was crouched down by the handbags, of course.

I left her there, and roamed the store. After about half an hour, I had picked out a few 1D t-shirts that read different things. I also had various accessories, blankets, and bags. As I walked to the counter, I found a really pretty iPhone case, so I grabbed that up too.
