It All Started With A Text....

Chapter Seven

"What are you going to wear ice skating?" Karla asked.

"I'm not sure," I said truthfully. I looked in the mirror, pinching my thigh and frowning. Kayla frowned, too, and swatted my hand away. "We need to go to the mall."

"Yeah, we do," she agreed, grabbing her purse.

"My mom can take us. Let's go," I said, running own the steps, grabbing my purse on the handle of the door on the way out.

My mom was sitting there, drinking tea. "What can I do for you, girls?"

"Can you please drive us to the mall?" I pleaded.

"Sure. Let's go," she replied. I checked my phone. It was ten, and we had to be at the skating rink at one.

"We've got roughly two hours at the mall," I called to Karla as we stepped into the car.

"All right, we'll find something," she replied, frowning a little bit.

"Where are you going?" my mom asked.

"To the skating rink at one. I told you two days ago," I said, giving her a little smirk.

"Oh, right, sorry. Okay, I'll pick you guys up in front of Sears at twelve, okay?"

I nodded and she drove off, waving. We walked into the mall and I breathed in the mall scent.

Isn't it weird how a mall can smell so good sometimes? Our mall is always really cool.

"So, where off to first?" I asked.

"Abercrombie!" Kayla exclaimed. We both walked to Abercrombie and started browsing around.

"What about this?" I asked, holding up a cute white, frilly top.

"Too dressy," Karla said, scrunching up her nose. I gave it a second glance and gave a nod.

"True."

We browsed around for another half hour before we both found our outfits.

Mine was a pair of dark wash flare jeans, a white tank top, and a dark blue and white striped long-sleeve shirt. I paired it with a pair of brown boots and then went to the cash register.

The total came to over a hundred dollars, which was actually pretty cheap, for Abercrombie.

Karla's outfit was a pair of dark wash skinny jeans, a plain gray longs-sleeved top, but a hot pink tank top underneath, giving it a splash of color.

We walked to the food court and bought subs from Subway, and then I texted my mom, asking her to pick us up early. She showed up five minutes later, and we both got in the car, hoping to get ready sooner for our date.

When we got to my house, we both walked inside, ready to started preparing. First, I pulled on my outfit easily, and then I got to work on my hair. I curled the ends loosely, and then pulled it into a low side ponytail.

I then put on some light black eyeliner, some silver eyeshadow, and mascara, with a pale pink lip gloss. I made sure to tuck that in my pocket, and then I fished around in my closet for my figure skates.
