I got into my room and decided I really needed to take a shower. I took my clothes off and stepped into the warm shower. I cleansed my body and washed my hair.

I walked out of the shower and dried off my body. After that i wrapped my hair in a different towel. I walked over to my closet to pick out an outfit to wear.

I ended up picking out a plain black shirt I got at Dots and a skirt that had medium sized daisies on it that I got from Ross. And for shoes I wore white converse. I also determined to let my hair down and go with my natural wavy hair. After that i did my makeup. I don't really need Foundation, concealer, etc. so I just put on grey eyeshadow and put winged eyeliner on. After that, I grabbed my phone and went down the hallway to my sisters room.

-- Aaliyah's POV --

I heard a knock on my bedroom door, shit, it is Jessica and I haven't even gotten ready yet. "Hold on, Jess" I said. I hurriedly threw on a sweat shirt that said California Republic on it and managed to get into my skinny jeans. I put on mascara and eyeliner. Then I took my phone off of the dresser and arranged my hair into a messy bun.

I slid the door open and shouted "reaaaddyy!"

We both got into the car and I let my sister drive. Although Jessica did not have her license, she did have her permit.

-- Jessica's POV --

We had finally arrived to the parking lot. Luckily enough, we had gotten a parking space close to the entrance.

Right when we stepped into the doorway my sister Aaliyah yelled "MIRANDA?!" Miranda was Aaliyah's best friend when we were developing to be teens and whatnot. However, Miranda hated my guts for some reason and because of that, I despise her as well.

Aaliyah rushed over to her and hugged her for awhile. After they stopped hugging they started talking and asking how each other were doing and blah blah blah.

I glanced over to find a guy that looked around my age behind the counter in one of the stores, he had light brown hair and brown eyes, he also had the most beautiful smile. He actually resembled Justin Bieber a bit. But i couldn't take my eyes off of him.

I walked over to my sister and said "Hey, Aaliyah," I saw the smile on Miranda's face disappear. "Is it okay if I go into one of these stores for a few minutes?"

"Yes, it's fine" Aaliyah answered.

I walked into the store which was labeled 'Books a Million' and went up to the counter with that same guy standing there and I managed to ask "Hey, do you know where I could find Mockingjay?" He smiled and pointed over to a section of the store so I walked over there and started looking for the book. Then I let out an "Ah-ha" and grabbed the book off of the shelf.

I went back up there and he asked me "So you are a fan of The Hunger Games series?"

"Yes, I love it!" I exclaimed.

"Okay, well here you go," He handed me the book and started to write something on the receipt. He gave it to me and I looked at the receipt and there lied a phone number he had written in solid black sharpie.

"I think if I had honor to get your phone number, I would at least know your name..." I blurted out.
