     I think like Ava and I, Alex likes to be punctual. Either that or he was just trying to keep his promise to me that he would finish quick. He finished filming in half an hour just like he said. "Let me just put this camera up. I'll edit it later. Did you think of what you want to do?" Alex said as he walked to the other room. I lay on my back looking at the ceiling. He comes back into the room. "So what are we doing?" "Well I didn't think of anything because I don't know what you like." I stretch out my arm so he can help me up. "Well what do you usually do? Take me through a day in the life of Mili." I start to think. I never really do anything, my day is pretty much always unplanned. This is the first day in awhile that I have anything actually planned, besides random meetups with Ava. I just go with the flow. "I never have anything specific I do. I just grab my backpack, some sunglasses, a jacket and leave." "Then that's what we're doing. Let me grab my keys and some glasses." Alex grabs his things and we go to the hallway. "I need my things too." "I'll meet you in the lobby." I didn't think this was going to happen today, I thought we were just going to spend all day his apartment, while he edited and I sat there showing him memes every once in awhile.
I took the elevator to the lobby, then I look for Alex. "He's over there." Ava says. She snuck up behind me when I got off of the elevator. "How's it going? Has prince charming swept you off your feet yet?" she teases. "Shut up we're just friends Ava. We're on our way out actually I'll see you later!" I go get Alex and we leave. "I think we should go to like a store or something." Alex said. "Yeah we can do that. We can look around see if you find anything you like." He grabs my hand to stop me from walking. "Let's go back to the apartment complex and get my car so we can go to the mall. It will be more fun, I haven't gotten to drive my jeep since I moved. Mostly because I haven't gone out." We go to the parking garage and get in his jeep and we head down to the mall. I actually haven't been to the mall since I've lived here so this will be interesting.
"How long have you lived here?" Alex asked me because the car ride was full of awkward silence. "Not long, a couple of months. I've never been to the mall since I've lived here though." "Oh then this will be fun. I actually have an idea of something for us to do. Is it okay if I snapchat while we're there?" It's nice to know that he's being considerate. He's not just going to put me out there for people to see without asking. According to Ava he's famous, but just how famous is he? How many people will see me if he posts something? "Yeah it's fine." "I won't post anything you won't want on there. I'll probably just send it to my sisters or save it. You can post too, if you want. I know you have no idea who I am internet wise or anything like that, but for the sake of us having fun, lets try to be careful with not really giving out where we are." He looks at me and gives me an awkward reassuring smile. " I'm not sure what that means, but I don't have any friends here or any followers I don't know. So if I snapchat no one will know where we are at all." I laugh to make it seem like I'm really okay with the fact that I have no actual friends, besides Ava. "Hey this is gonna be fun. I've been wanting to do this for awhile but I haven't had anyone to do this with." "What are we doing?" I ask a little curious. Alex gives me a grin, "You'll see when we get to the mall."
