Chloe decided that she wanted to do something she liked because spending all our time at the café was 'boring' in her words. Which I'd like to disagree with because that is a nice way to pass the time. Reading and drinking coffee in a nice shop.

Also because there are a few good looking people who worked there..

But that was besides the point. Anyways, since I didn't want to bore Chloe, I allowed her to drag me into the car. Well, limo actually. I stepped in and sat beside Chloe who ordered the chauffer to drive us to the mall. I cringed at the destination because I knew what Chloe wanted to do. She wanted to go shopping.

Now, don't get me wrong. Shopping is definitely fun when you go with friends because you fool around, hide in the clothes racks to scare someone, etc. But when you shop with Chloe, she will dress you up in clothes that you never even thought of wearing. Yes, the clothes were cute as she did have a good sense of fashion but it gets tiring having to change into multiple outfits.

But I still went since Chloe was a good friend of mine. I'd like to use the term best friend, because she probably was. But maybe if I even had more friends I'd have more choices of who to deem that special name. 

The limousine came to a stop and we both stepped out onto the white bricks that lead to the mall. She held my hand and dragged me into the mall with an excited smile, dragging me into a shop.

We spent our time there picking out clothes for each other, in which Chloe picked out cute dresses that I actually liked and well, I picked out matching onesies for the both of us to wear when I got permission to sleep over at her house. It was rare but when I did, they became the best nights of my life. 

I held out to Chloe our onesies, and she teased me over my childish taste. But still, who cares if my taste in clothes were somewhat childish, it was still cute and thats all that mattered!

I bought the onesies and two dresses Chloe picked out for me and Chloe only stood by me picking her nails. After the cashier handed me back my credit card, she dragged me away into another shop.

There was panic ensuing at the mall when the alarm rang, the robotic voice announcing an akuma attack. I frantically searched for Chloe but with the people shoving me around, it was difficult. But still, there was no way I was leaving this mall without Chloe.

I hissed in pain when I got knocked over, my shopping bag falling to the floor. One of the dresses Chloe picked out for me fell out and I reached over to put it back in the bag, when someone stepped on my fingers. 

I instantly drew my hand back, cradling my throbbing fingers. Quickly scooping my things into my arms, I tried standing up when I got pushed back down again. People were running into me, stepping on me time and time again. 

Finally, it all stopped and I looked around to see the mall was empty. No one was here anymore, I was alone. I tried standing up but couldn't but I knew why. Someone stepped on my ankle and someone kicked my thigh, so I'm pretty sure I'm sore.

Actually, I felt sore everywhere. Sore and tired. 

I don't know why I did what I did next but I could only blame it on the stampede of panicking people. But can I really blame them all for trying to save themselves? No.

So, with that, I fainted.
