Take Me On An Adventure

four

On the drive I felt extremely awkward. The realization that I'm alone with two new people really kicked in after we left the house.

It's not like I don't enjoy their company though, or rather, Felicity's company. Since I'm pretty sure Mickey hates me so far.

"Geez, turn the friggin radio on or something. It's too quiet." Felicity said to Mickey from the backseat. He looked in the mirror at us then focused back on the road, ignoring her request.

"Whatever," she rolled her eyes and turned towards me in her seat. "Listen, Jeanae. The first place we're gonna hit is a couple of my favorite stores. You're gonna love em. Trust me." She seemed pretty sure. I'm not sure what kind of stores but, guess I'll see.

When we parked along the sidewalk Felicity got out and so did Mickey, so I followed.

"Uh, you don't have to come along, Mickey. We could handle ourselves from here. I'll call you when we need you." Felicity said again with an authoritative voice and her hands on her hips.

He looked down at both of us, simply laughed sarcastically and shook his head. "Yea... not gonna happen. Now let's go." He gestured for her to lead the way.

"You know, you don't have to be so annoying." She said with a little glare at him before grabbing my arm and yanking me in the direction across the street. Mickey followed.

"Okay. It's not a fancy place or something but it's got the coolest stuff. Its honestly the best on my list." We stopped in front of a small place that read 'Nick's Vintage Nacks' in red paint on the window.

She pulled me through the door and the ding of a bell went off above us. "Hey Nick!" She said and frantically waved at a guy sitting behind the register.

"Hi Felicity." He said in a monotone voice and continued reading his newspaper. "Come on, first we start with clothes. Oh and the best thing about a Vintage thrift shop is that you don't really gotta buy anything, but you can still have loads of fun."

We spent about an hour looking through some clothes from the 90's and cool little toys and Nick Nacks, before moving on to the next store with was a little music shop. It was filled with old records, walkmans, Mixtapes, cool looking electric guitars, CD's, and the walls were practically papered with Album cover posters, gosh you name it they probably had it. Or something close to it.

It was a blast and I could tell Felicity had the most fun being my tour guide. The music shop was definitely my favorite. My goodness such a good time that was. For us at least.

I've never seen a more bored, miserable looking person than the way Mickey looked while following us through the stores.

Golly dude no one said you had to walk with us. If it's so bad why doesn't he just leave?

"That place was great Felicity! I really did love it. Definately gonna have to visit that place again." I said excitedly and She smiled at me in return.

"I'm glad you liked it, I knew you would." She said as we stood out in front of the music shop.

"Aye can we be done now? I wanna go home." Mickey said from behind us in a heavily annoyed manner.

"Actually I wanted to show Jeanae one more place." Felicity replied to him in a nice and calm manner. I on the other hand was also annoyed. But certainly not with her. He was just putting a damper in my mood.

"Haven't you shown her enough? It's been like three hours." He complained further.

Finally I had no longer wanted to here it. "You never Had to come along ya know? I mean didn't Felicity tell you she'd call you when we were done? So you could've just left."
