My Everything

Shopping

(Aaliyah's POV)

"You should get this for Brandon," Ansley says while holding up a chain. It is a silver link with white diamonds on it. It looks very nice and I think he will love it.

"That is so cool. I'm going to get it for him," I say while grabbing it and putting it in my basket.

"So what do you want to get Nick? You should get him something special," she says.

"Why would I do that? It's not like we are dating," I say.

"You could be" she says while winking at me. I roll my eyes and start to walk away to find gifts for the other boys.

"What should I get Austin?" I ask her.

"You should get him some new paint and some Pokémon cards. The kid loves to collect those cards," she says.

"Alright then that's what I'm going to get him," I say while walking to the art section. I pick out the paint and we start to walk back to where we are supposed to meet everyone else.

Everyone was sitting at the benches except for Nick and Austin. They are most likely still shopping for gifts.

"Hey you guys done?" Edwin asks us.

"Yes we are. Where is Nick and Austin?" I ask.

"They went to go get your gift. I think Austin is grabbing something for Ansley too," Zion says.

I smile because Nick is going to get my gift. I'm really excited to see what it is. I know it's kinda strange that we are celebrating Christmas with them when we just met. But I feel like family already and it's an amazing feeling that I just can't explain completely. It's like we have been a big family for so many years.

"We should go spy on Nick!" Brandon yells.

"But I don't want to see what he is getting me. I don't want to ruin the surprise," I say.

"Well we could go spy on him while you stay here," Zion says.

"Jeez just gonna leave me all by myself," I say.

"Yup, see ya soon," Zion says. They all stand up and start walking towards some stores to see if they can find Nick. I sit down on one of the benches and pull out my phone.

I start scrolling through Instagram because I have nothing better to do. They all suck for just leaving me here alone.

As I am going through Instagram I see someone sit right next to me. It's a guy and he is really close to me, he could touch me. There is four more empty benches so I am confused to why he has to sit right next to me.

"So what's your name?" He asks.

"That's none of your business," I say while scooting down the bench, away from him.

He comes closer to me again, "Oh come on I just want to know a pretty girls name. Is that too much to ask for?"

"I don't know you at all, so I'm not about to tell you my name," I say.

He puts his hand on my thigh and I push it away instantly. He tries to grab my face but I smack his hands away from me.

I try to run but he grabs me by the waist and puts me on his lap. I start to kick but I don't hit anything of his. He sits me back down on the bench but puts his arm around me so I can't move.

"Let me go!" I yell at him.

"How about we take this back to my place?" He says while kissing down my neck.

I start screaming, hoping that someone would see us, but we are at the dead end of the mall. Nobody is around except some people in the stores.

He puts his hand up my shirt and it starts to travel up. Tears fall down my cheek as I start screaming again. He doesn't stop and nobody hears us.
