"I'm going to regret this..."
"No you won't, if it's one thing I'm good at, it's shopping." I believed her.
When we were about to fall asleep, something occured to me.
"Mich..."
"Hm?"
"How am I going to tell my grandmother and aunt that I'm going out with the next Chief of The Venatores?"
"... Sleep on it."
"Thanks for the help." I scoffed and rolled onto my side.
"Goodnight." She said through a yawn.
"Goodnight." I said then fell asleep.

When everyone had finished breakfast, aunt Jessica started her interrogation.
"What were you doing at Frazer Crest yesterday?" She asked in front of everyone.
"I'd like to know that too." Trey said shrugging, Michelle glared at him.
"What?" He asked, "she makes us leave her at the edge of the forest as mad as ever, then she comes back happy, like someone gave her smiling pills and she washed it down with giggle juice."
"Someone gave her something alright..." Michelle said under her breath.
"Now you were with someone in the most secluded area of Kingswood? Alecia what were you doing out there and who were you with?"
I took a deep breath. "Have a seat beside grandma, aunt Jessica." She did.
"Open the door Trey." He gave me a confused look but he did anyway.
"Stand next to me Michelle."
"What are you-"
"Grandma, Aunt Jessica, Trey and Dahlia I was with Lucien Rathbone, and we have a date tonight, now bye!"
I grabbed Michelle's arm and pulled her out and we started running.
"Can we run to the mall?"
"Yep! Let's go."
We sped off down the road, and I was sure I heard the growl of some predator animal.

"They're gonna kill me." I said as Michelle and I looked at another line of dresses.
"No... Well Jessica might, but Theresa is pretty chill."
"Uh huh. What about this?" I pulled out a brown dress with lace design.
"It's perfect Ally! Let's go get it in your size! I know the perfect shoes!"
We rushed off. I was actually enjoying this.
