I've written a couple of fictions before, "A different world isn't always
better" then the sequel "Readjustments to the world". This story takes
place about two months from my first fiction. If you have time, please
read them! This story will make a lot more sense if you do. Most of
what's in this story is Jamie's point of view on the events that happened.
I hope you like it!

Caitie and Val were at the mall on a Saturday morning.
"What do you think of this sweater?" Val asked, draping the pink cardigan sweater over herself.
"It's you Val" Caitie replied sarcastically.
Val had a questioning look on her face. She wondered if Caitie was serious or not.
"Go on and buy it."
Val nodded her head gleefully and headed to the cash register. Caitie wouldn't dare to pull off the preppy look Val does. She just smirked at the image of a tall blonde running to an open register. She followed Val to the front of the store.
Caitie quickly spotted a black leather journal. She walked over to the table to have a closer look. "Living or Existing?" was embedded in the leather cover with silver ink. She immediately opened the book and flipped through the pages. Each page was carefully detailed with silver lines. Caitie took the journal to the cash register.
"What's that?" asked Val noticing something in Caitie's hands.
Caitie showed Val the black leather book.
"Wow, that's nice."
"Yeah, I like it."
Val and Caitie headed out of the store after purchasing their items.

Caitie went home that afternoon with three bags of new merchandise. She and Val had made their mark at the mall that day. She carefully rummaged through the bags of clothes, jewelry and makeup to pull out the leather journal she had purchased that day. She took out her favorite pen and started to fill up the pages.
"Living or existing?"
After a few moments Caitie stopped writing in the journal. She reached over to one of her shopping bags and pulled out a brand new pen. She stuck the pen in the holder in the journal. She put the journal in a gift bag and headed over to Jamie's house.

Caitie rang the doorbell.
"Hey!" Jamie stated as he appeared in the doorway with a tee shirt and boxers.
"Hi Jamie" said Caitie as she entered his house.
"So, what's up?" he asked as he grabbed a Snapple from the fridge.
He handed one over to Caitie-Kiwi Strawberry, her favorite.
"I just have a little present for you" she replied as she opened her beverage.
"Oh is that right?" Jamie arched his eyebrow.
"Here". Caitie handed him the gift bag containing the journal. "I got to go."
"Um. thanks" Jamie replied. He heard the front door close. Jamie reached inside the bag and found a black leather journal. It read "Living or Existing?" on the cover. Curiously he opened the journal.
(Caitie's journal entry)
I went to the mall today and found this journal at a store. "Living or existing?" I truly found this question to be intriguing. It was worthy of my attention. At that moment I thought to myself, do I simply exist. or am I really living?
I know you have a look of puzzlement on your face Jamie. Stop muttering "Caitie has lost it" and please continue reading.
I initially purchased this journal for myself but figured it would have more use as a gift. The purpose this little black leather book serves is simple. It will posses your inner most thoughts and ideas on how you want to live your life. Do not settle for just existing. Strive to live a life. Fill it with ideas, thoughts, songs, drawings . . . whatever you want. After it is finished, I want you to return the book to me. I will hold on to it we will see if you will successfully live your life.
Brave enough to bear your soul?
Jamie smiled to himself. He has been challenged. Does Caitie really want to know what his inner most thoughts really are?
"I'm brave" he said out loud.
A/N: this is really a pointless fic. Does it deserve a sequel? Maybe I'll add a couple of chapters. Please review and let me know what you think!
