Part 204

Julie's POV

We had just arrived to Westfield London Shopping Centre and Mam has had me locked to her side the entire time. Almost as if I was going to slip through her fingertips - it was crazy packed and I was guessing she was feeling uneasy with the strangers swarming us. Mark was here thank god, all we wanted to do was get some holiday shopping done - could we not do it in peace?

"Stay close" She said, even if I didn't want to stay close - did I really have a choice? She's practically super glued me to her side. I never did like it when the fans bombarded us, all I wanted was to spend some time with my Mam - without the shouting and the pleads for photos and autographs. Mam was too nice for her own good, they were taking the piss and the crowd was growing

"Mark" I widened my eyes sending him a message - he instantly began to tell the fans that was enough, getting Mam and I to be able to maneuver ourselves through the chaos.

My arms were wrapped around Mam's waist tightly - my face hidden under her arm. The second we stepped into the first shop the manager locked the door - the screams and shouts being bounced against the clear glass door

"Fcks sake" Mam sighed, walking to the first rack of clothing her eyes set on - the second her back was to the fans I flicked them off and mouthed for them to 'Fck off'. I got a chuckle out of Mark, and a pat on the back

"Just ignore them" He said, I huffed walking over to Mam - watching her raid the rack, going through them faster than the blink of an eye

"Are we even going to be able to go through all the shops with those fckers outside?" I asked, I was trying to get her into a better mood - the car ride was filled with laughs and giggles and right now the fans had ruined it all

"I'm sure we'll manage" She said, letting the smile reappear on her face

"Now, tell us what you want for Christmas" She said, pulling me back into her - her arm resting along my shoulder whilst the other continued the flick through the clothing

"I have everything I want Mam... Actually I do want something" I said, getting her full attention

"What? Anything"

"Maybe you could push my curfew a bit later?" I bit my lower lip, trying to hide the smirk that was slowly making its appearance

"Your curfew is twelve o'clock Julie, how much later do you want it to be?" She rolled her eyes and walked away from me

"Maybe like two o'clock" I said, her head instantly snapping around at me

"Why don't you just not come home at all then!" She hissed

"I'm not having this discussion with you right now" She waved her hand, signaling she was done with this ridiculous request I had just threw at her

"And anyways-" She began

"You're always home! Where are you going to go until two o'clock in the morning?" She asked me, her arms crossing over each other - foot being tapped against the white marbled flooring. She was challenging me.

"Maybe I'm some undercover drug dealer and my boss needs me to stay out later" Her eyes grew wide in horror, but quickly turned into a scowl as I began to laugh

"D-Did you seriously thin-" I couldn't finish my sentence as she started to playfully hit me whilst I continued to laugh my head off

"I'm done with your cheekiness right now! We came here to shop, not take the piss at us!" She groaned, walking away from me once again - I stood up collecting myself and went around the shop to see if anything would interest me.
