My dad looks like Kurt Cobain, Mom’s an alcoholic, you gotta love it, it, you gotta love it, it. The apple never falls too far, yeah I’m a fucking star, I rise above it, I rise above it!’ I sang with Jeffree as he carried round the mall on his shoulders.

Jayy was right, Jeffree was all right. At first I had been at little scared; I mean, what if he turned out like a total dick? Turns out he was one of the biggest sweeties I had ever known. Loud yet gentle, you automatically warmed towards the guy.

‘Honestly, you should set a better example to your little sister!’ said an old lady crossly.

Jeffree simply poked his tongue out at the woman, and continued to sing loudly.

‘Strap in and enjoy the ride, It's more fun if you risk your life.’

‘Well really!’ huffed the woman before shuffling off.

‘So I DARE, DARE, DARE you to love me, you’ll n-n-never survive. Still I DARE, DARE, DARE you to love me, I hope you make it out alive.’ I joined in.

‘JEFFREE! YOU LOUD CRAZY BITCH!’

Jeffree turned round and laughed.

‘It’s the single pringles! You out mingling? The rest all with their girlfriends?’ he called. ‘Not surprised your still single though Ashley, you slut!’

‘You make it sound like a bad thing! Who’s the cutie on your shoulder? Have you turned straight?’ CC and Ashley Purdy strolled over and I had to stop myself falling off Jeffree’s shoulders from excitement.

‘Nahh, this is Jayy’s baby sister.’ Chuckled Jeffree.

‘Does he know you’re carrying her round on your shoulders in those mother fucking crazy heels?’ asked CC. ‘I know the dude gets over-protective.’

‘Meh. I wear them all the time. I can walk in them.’ Jeffree dismissed. ‘And like Roxie minds, she likes being up high!’

‘Roxie eh?’ Ashley looked at me. ‘How old is she?’

‘I’m 15, 16 soon!’ I called.

‘We’re out shopping!’ said Jeffree in such a camp voice that I burst out laughing.

‘Remind me again, which one of you is the chick and who has the dick?’ asked Ashley.

I laughed at that. Me and Jeffree did look odd. He had long bright pink hair; mine was a short pixie crop of coal black. He wore a pink leather jacket, a low black V-neck top and black leggings; I was in a red and black stripy t-shirt and baggy, ripped blue jeans and Jayy’s denim jacket. He wore crazy pink heels; I was in my scruffy low-tops.

‘Funny Purdy, she’s the chick.’ Said Jeffree.

‘Well, if you two are out shopping, I’m coming with you!’ called CC. ‘You gonna come Ashley or find another tart to chat up?’

‘Funny Chuppy, I’ll come.’ Said Ashley, rolling his eyes. ‘But not if you two are gonna sing those songs!’

‘Awww hell no, you insulted my music! CC, hold Roxie which I bitch slap Ashley!’ Jeffree passed me over to CC, who sat me on his arm. He then marched after Ashley, who was laughing his head off.

‘You get so wound up easily woman!’ teased Ashley.

‘Fuck you, you manwhore!’

‘No cheers, I prefer to do the fucking in bed!’ laughed Ashley.

‘Ash! There are minors around!’ exclaimed CC in mock shock, covering my ear with his hands.

‘Pfft, if she’s Jayy’s little sister, she’s probably heard much worse!’
