Something Special

Chapter 20.

Tess's P.O.V

After me and Ally finished squeling in excitement, we went to Icing and bought some jewlerly, plus I got my ears peirced and two new phone cases. Then we went to Victoria's Secret. I loved Victoria's secret and I couldn't wait to begin as a model there. We were also doing a bit for PINK so that would be cool too. A lady there measured me and I tried on a lot of bras. I ended up getting five. I only wanted 3 but Ally insistid. One hot pink lacy bra, one plain light blue one, one red sports bra, one black sports bra, and a purple bra with a little dangling diamond. I also got underwear, and some bathing suits. Then we went to the food court. "All this shopping is making me hungry." Ally laughed. We got in line for Taco Bell. Then I saw that Hayes Grier, Nash's little brother was here. Relax. I told myself. He's never bullied you, and he won't start now. Plus he probobaly won't even see you. "Hello, welcome to Taco Bell, what can I get you today?"  The Taco Bell guy asked. My sister started ordering and I did too. "Hey. How bout I get an order of you, with your sister on the side?" He spoke to me and laughed at himself. "Excuse me, but what kind of pick up line is that?" My sister laughed and rolled her eyes. "Hopefully the kind that will get me a date tonight?" He chuckled. "Umm, sorry were not interested." She grabbed her tray off of the counter. I was surprised he was hitting on us... Well on me, Ally was already gorgeous, but I hadn't even done my makeover yet.  Still plain old me, just with different hair. "How bout you hottie? Wanna hang tonight?" He looked smug and spoke again to me. "Sure!" I smiled. He looked shocked, I said yes. "Really?" He straightened up. "Just not with you, sorry." I spun of the back of my heel and walked away. I could feel his glare on my back. "Oooooh!" The Taco Bell workers were chanting. But then he did something I thought he wouldn't. He jumped over the counter and came towards me. The food court fell silent. "Now listen here you little bitch." He spat in
my face. He raised a hand to hit me, but someone jumped in front of me and grabbed the guys arm. "Leave her alone." Someone said through clenched teeth. "Oh yeah, what are you gonna do about it? Huh kid?" The Taco Bell guy spat back. "I don't think you wanna know." The other one shot right back. The Taco Bell  guy opened his mouth to say something again but then security came and tore them apart. I wish we had security at our school. That would fix everything. The guy turned around to face me, after the security let him go. "Hi I'm, -" He stopped short. It was Hayes.  "Do I know you?" He asked. "Umm... Nope, not me. Don't think so. Bye!" I ran turned to walk away but he grabbed my arm and turned me back around. He was only one year younger then me, since Nash and the rest of the guys were one year older then me. While I was almost 16, but right now I'm still only 15. "Woah, calm down. I was just wondering." He held his hands up in surrender. "Oh. Sorry, I just- I don't know."

He laughed. "No problem." I smiled. "Ahem." Ally cleared her throat. "I'll just find a table then." She giggled and went to find a table. "Umm. I never got your name?" I pretended I didn't know. "Hayes. Hayes Grier." He smiled and we walked over to where my sister had found a spot to sit. "Anddd..." He looked up at me, waiting for me to talk. "Umm. Tess." I decided to say my actual first name. "Tess, huh? I like that name." He blushed and peered at the ground. "Thanks." I joined in on the blushing. "Do you have a last name Tess?" Hayes asked. "Umm, yep... I do." I tried to dodge the question. "What is it?" Hayes laughed. I stopped in my tracks. "Sanders." I sighed and waited for his reaction. "Sanders? Tess Sanders... Hmm. Wait, what? Tess Sanders?!" His mouth dropped. "In the flesh." I said, and ran my fingers through my hair. Im glad it wasn't one of the other guys, because I didn't even have any new makeup or clothes on, so of course they would of recognized me. But Hayes is homeschooled and has only seen me once before, so of course he doesn't remember me. We havent even talked! He was about to say something but I turned around and walked to the table Ally was now sitting at. I really hope Hayes doesn't tell Nash.
