Our Little Secret [Finished]

Chapter 4

The ride to Westfield was short and fun. We played Lux's playlist at full volume, and shouted the lyrics to the songs. At least the songs we knew.

"Alright, turn the music down whilst we enter the car park." Lux said whilst turning in to a car park. Freezy turned the music down so that it was at an audible volume, but was also enough to allow everyone to think.

I looked out of the window at all of the people whilst Lux picked a parking spot. It had been so long since I had last seen so many people. 

Lux parked and we all got out quickly, walking into the main shopping centre. The amount of people, the noise level, and all of the bright lights clogged my senses as I ogled at everything around me.

"Oi, Sadie, you want to get food first, or get shit and then grab some food?" Freezy asked. My eyes widened.

"Don't swear in public, someone young might hear you." I exclaimed at Freezy. He just laughed and patted my head.

"Nobody cares, in London, Sadie." Freezy shook his head. "Even if they do- they're just getting a headstart."

I gave a small chuckle at Freezy's logic before seeing a small pretzel stall in the aisle between all of the shops. I read the banner above the stall. Auntie Anne's pretzels.

"You want some of them pretzels?" Lux asked, seeing where I was staring. My head snapped around to him as he said that.

"It's fine." I shook my head.

"Fuck's sake, Sadie- I'll speak for Lux here- if you want something then just say it, because it makes our life a Hell of a lot easier." Freezy said.

"Chill with the swearing." I laughed. "And in that case, then yes, can we get some pretzels?" 

"Say no more." 

We went down the escalator before walking the short distance to the stall and ordering.

"What do you want?" Lux asked.

"Can I have the cinnamon-sugar nuggets?" I read off the board.

Lux and Freezy order their own pretzels and dips before we sat at one of the tables and waited for the person to make our pretzels.

The pretzels arrived shortly. My sugared, nugget pretzels, Lux's caramel and marshmallow pretzel, and Freezy's pretzel-dog. 

As our orders were placed down on the table, we all compared our pretzels before laughing at Freezy's because the sausage looked like (in Freezy's words) "A giant schlong."

We took pieces of each other's pretzels and compared them before finishing about half an hour later.

"Clothes, room, or electronic shopping first?" Freezy leaned back and questioned. I thought for a moment.

"One hundred and ten percent clothes shopping- I'm pretty sure we'll have less to carry by doing that." I thought out loud.

"Depends on how much you buy, to be honest." Lux shrugged before getting up and adjusting his NASA top. "Anyways then, let's go."

We threw our rubbish in a bin before walking out of the food court and to the designer clothing part of the shopping centre. 

"Do you want to go to places like JD Sports, Topshop, or Urban Outfitters?" Lux asked, not knowing what type of clothing I was looking for.

"Or Victoria's Secret- I'm not complaining if you want to go." Freezy added with a shrug. I hit his arm and laughed.

"Let's go to Urban, first." I decided. "They have all of the casual stuff that I need more of."
