Red haired, blue eyed, 18 and a half year old Jenni Rose strides into Abercrombie & Fitch. Not to buy anything, she'd never be able to afford anything, but make fun of all the rich kids. She found them amusing. If one couldn't find what they were looking for, they'd throw a hissy fit. Jenni sits down in the back and watches the people.
Buzz Buzz
Jenni's phone buzzes. She takes it out of her black skinny jeans pocket and unlocks it.
The Doctor
She types in. The Doctor was recurring in her life. Whenever she was scared, she'd day dream of him. Or whenever she had free time, she'd draw him. Back home, her TARDIS blue walls were covered with drawings of him. Or news articles she had found on the Internet. He intrigued her even without knowing much about him. She looks down at her iPhone 3.

Hay, whre r u???
Jenni rolls her eyes. The one thing that really annoyed her, was when Delsin used abbreviations. She had known Delsin since she was 5. Delsin belonged to the Reggie's. The family right next to Jenni's house. After her mum hadnt come home, Jenni took the liberty of going to the Reggie's and telling them that her mum wasnt home. Ever since then, the Reggie's had taken care of her.
To: Delsin
English please.
From: Delsin
Sorry sorry. Where are you? Mums freaking out at me. Like hell i know where you are.
To: Delsin
Oops sorry, forgot to tell her. Just tell her I went to the mall.
From: Delsin
Of course you are. Mind if I join making fun of the prissy people?
To: Delsin
I'd be honored <3 ;)
With that, Jenni tucks her phone back in her pocket. Just in time to see a young blonde yelling at the sales clerk. Jenni softly smiles and tunes in.
Sales Clerk: Im sorry Ma'm but we don't have it in white.
Blonde: What do you mean it's not in white?! It was here last time!
Sales Clerk: When was that?
Blonde: 3 weeks ago!
Sales Clerk: Then it's out of stock. I'm-
Blonde: I don't wanna hear it! I want my god damn dress!
Sales Clerk: Go to another store.
Blonde: Fine! I will! I'm telling my daddy about this!
Jenni bursts into fits of laughter. Though it wasnt that funny, she just felt like egging on the young blonde. Looking up with tears in her eyes, the blonde strides over to Jenni.
"What are you laughing at skank?"The blonde asks with an icy tone. Jenni raises a brown eyebrow.
"You."She states bluntly. A hint of a smile edging at the corners of her mouth. This was the good stuff. When she got involved. Sometimes the prissy person would hit her. Sometimes they'd scream. It was best when they through a fit and said they'd tell their daddy.
"Why I outta-"The blonde is cut off by a man. A very familiar man to Jenni. Yet for some reason, she couldn't place him.
"Miss, is this the dress you're looking for?"The man asks, holding up a laced white dress. He stood at least 4 inches over her. His brown striped tailored suit looked a bit too big. His brown hair stuck up. Almost like it was defying gravity. Those eyes, man those eyes were like they'd seen everything. Jenni noticed.
"Yes! Thank you!"The blonde squeals, hugging the man. He looks slightly uncomfortable. Jenni scratches the back of her neck, feeling slightly jealous for some reason. Why would she feel jealous? She didn't even know the man. Yet seeing the pretty blonde have her hands on him made her skin crawl.
Finally, the blonde removes herself, kisses his cheek then runs off to pay for the dress. Jenni's blue eyes follow after her. If looks could kill, she'd be dead. The man clears his throat. Jenni lifts her pale skinned face towards him. The sight of him makes her heart beat a million miles a minute. His eyes lock onto hers. Making her want to jump him right then and there. Still, why would she feel this way towards a man she doesn't know?
"Jenni."The man whispers, kneeling in front of her. Jenni is taken aback. How did this man know her name? She looks down to make sure she's not wearing anything that would give away her name. Her eyes land on her necklace. Written in cursive is her name. Before her mum died, she had given it to her. Sort of like a token.
"H-how do you know my name?"Jenni manages to choke out. Even though she knew the answer, she wanted to hear him speak once more. The sound of his voice was soothing. She could fall asleep to it if he sang to her. Shaking her head slightly, she tunes back into the man. Why couldn't she stop thinking these things about this man? He was only a stranger right?
"Your necklace, it says your name. Are you okay though? That young woman was pretty rude to you. I could go find her and talk some sense into her. Maybe I'll have the police talk to her for verbal abuse. Or-"Jenni reluctantly cuts off his rambling.
"No need. Thank you though uh..."She trails off awkwardly.
"John. John Smith."He fills in for her with a grin that could kill her poor heart. Hadnt this man done enough? Now he has to go and grin at her. How rude of him.
"Thank you John Smith. It was nice meeting you."Jenni says formally. There was something about this man that made her want to straighten up. Be a lady and actually be nice for once.
-----------------4 hours later------------------
Delsin nudges Jenni awake. Jenni opens her eyes and finds herself on a train. The two of them had decided that they didn't want to go home. So they took the train. It was around 10:30 now. The train screeches to a halt. Fully awakening a very sleepy Jenni. They both get up and exit the train. Looking around, they take in their surroundings.
"You know where we are?"Asks a groggy looking Delsin. Jenni leans against a pillar and shakes her head.
"Nope."She pops the 'p' and shrugs. Delsin leans his back against the pillar in front of her. Both of them not wanting to move anymore. Sure it wasn't that late but both of them were exhausted from walking around the mall for 2 hours. A man in a familiar brown striped suit walks by. Newspaper in hand. Delsin pushes himself up and clears his throat.
"Scuse me sir. Where is this?"Delsins voice cracks a bit from lack of using it. The man lowers the newspaper and smiles at the pair.
"Why this is San Fransico."The man replies in a cheery tone. Jenni's eyes widen. It was the same man from the mall. Bunches of questions skid across Jenni's already overflowing mind. Why was he here? How is he here? Is he stalking her? Jenni shivers at the thought. Surely this man wasnt stalking her. Right?
"Thank you-"
"John Smith."The man, now John Smith, fills in for Delsin. Delsin nods in appreciation and goes back to leaning against the pillar. John Smith winks at Jenni before sauntering off down the subway.
"Delsin. That man. I saw him before, at the mall. He helped me with one of the prissy people. Or at least, he tried to help. He's everywhere, I swear. I think he's stalking me."Jenni's words tumble out faster than Delsin can register. He turns towards her. Looking deep into her eyes.
"John Smith could never hurt anyone. He doesn't seem like the kinda of man to do that."Delsin says in a monotone voice, shocking Jenni. She steps back from him a bit. He shakes his head and looks at her normally.
"You say something?"He asks her. Jenni, still shocked, shakes her head. What in the hell just happened?
