Chapter 4, Bestfriends

Hero, Lulu, and I are all getting into Hero's car.
Later on ill come back to their house for my car and then drive home. I sit in the front seat even though Lulu called shotgun.

"Omg im so excited." she says and i laugh.

"Can we be like bestfriends, like the three of us?! We need a name!" she squeals and hero shakes his head.

"Can you imagine living with her?" he looks at me and i roll my eyes nudging him, making him laugh.

"Yes we can be bestfriends." i say and Hero makes a face.

"Not when we're in school." he says and i nudge him again.

"We can be called...pancake squad." Lulu says and Hero starts to drive the car.

"Ew." he says and i laugh.

"I think we should decide our name when we get to the mall, so we have more to base it off of." i say while looking out the window.

"Good idea." Lulu says nodding seriously, which makes Hero laugh.

"Im actually suprised you're even going to the mall with me, since you're so concerned about being seen with me." i say and I look at him.

He almost looks like he feels bad.
"Oh shit i didnt think of that." he says sarcastically and starts laughing.
Nevermind.

"For once i thought you'd be sincere about something." i say and he smiles.

"I just dont want people to think im fucking you or soemthing."

"Hey! Kid in the back." Lulu says and I rub my face.

"Sorry not sorry." Hero says and i roll my eyes.

"Well they should know that you're not doing the devils tango with Jo if they see that I like her." Lulu says crossing her arms.

"Why? You dont like any of the girls your brother fools around with?" i ask.

"Of course not, even the nice ones arent...likeable. Dont fall for their act." she says.

"Note taken." i say looking back out the window.

"Except maybe you I'd like." she says and i close my eyes.
Akward.

Hero turns the music up and the drive to the mall isnt long.

Once we arrive we stop at a few shoe stores first.
I have the $150 Hero gave me and another $50 bucks from tutoring.

But i dont want to waste it all. Ill probably just get two tops at most.

We walk into American Eagle and Lulu runs to a blue dress.
I walk over to the sweatshirts and skim them.

I can barely afford one of these.

"Hey i have a question." Hero says popping up out of no where.

"I thought you were in the male section."

"I was but i want to ask you something." he says leaning his arm on one of the tables.

"Okay, what is it?" i ask picking out one thats cute and only 20$.

"Why do you always wear flannels?" he asks and i just look at him.

"Is that a legit question?" I ask and he laughs.

"Dead serious."

"Uh...well...they use to be my brothers." i say, looking back at the $20 sweater.

"Why do you wear your brothers clothes, why not your own?"

"Why are you so interested in my clothing choices?"
