Chapter 4

Leah POV

I can not believe I'm doing this! I don't have any cloths! My hair is a mess! I flop down on my bed with a groan, an arm covering my eyes. "I see someone is having a bad morning."

I lift my arms and look over at my savior of the day. Emily smiles at me, keys in hand."Get dressed. We're headed to the mall for a girls day before your date with Chance."

I squeal. Yes I Leah Clearwater squealed. Rushing to Emily I hug her."Em your are a life saver!"

She laughs, hugging me back,"That's right. Don't forget it."

I go to my closet and pull on some old jeans and a black t-shirt. Shoving my feet in a pair of shoes and brushing my teeth, I met Emily downstairs at the door.

Once we reach the mall Emily turns to me. "Now, what first?"

"Well." I pull some hair in front of my face pitifully,"I should probably do something about this."

She smiles, taking my hand and pulling me over to Quickie Cuts. A slim guy wearing tight black pants and a white shirt comes over to us. "Yes ladies how may I assist you this lovely morning?"

Emily pulls my forward,"She has a date with an extremely handsome man tonight and would like to get her hair trimmed."

He smiles, slapping his cheeks,"Oh darling you'll have to tell me about this dish of a man while we shampoo those raven locks of yours!" Turning to Emily he smiles,"Anything for you?"

"No thank you."

"Very well! Come darling!" He takes my hand and leads me over to one wall lines with shampooing chairs. Putting a towel around my shoulders he leans the chair back and starts washing my hair. "Now darling tell me, what's this lucky mans name hmm?"

"Chance Uley." I can feel my eyes fog over as his face comes to mind. Ice cold eyes surrounded with thick dark lashes. Deep russet skin. Straight raven black hair with a blueish ton in the sun. Muscles that make Sam and the guys look normal.

"Hm. Native?" The guys wraps my hair and we head over to a chair. After putting the irritating cover around me, he turns my chair to face the large mirror. Combing my hair with his fingers, he waits for my answer. I small smile comes to my face,"Well not really. Half. He's visiting family for awhile."

"Oh a family man. Honey you watch those. How a man treats his momma is how he'll treat you in a way. Learned that the hard way!" He laughs a slightly womanish laugh. "Now how about instead of a trim, we give you layers hm?"

I fidget in the chair,"Well I'm trying to grow it back out."

"Hm. I still suggest layers. Long ones. Less up keep and it will make your a hair a bit thinner and easier to maintain."

"Alright."

He pins some of my hair up, trimming the first layer. "Now darling whats this guy look like?"

His face enters my mind again."Dark hair, tan skin, tall. Normal native look. Only difference are his eyes. There blue."

He starts the next layer,"Ooh. A blue eyes native. I might have to come up and have a crack at him myself." He laughs his..odd..laugh, starting another layer.

"Um. How many layers are you doing?"

He smiles at my in the mirror, "Only four sugar bear. Almost done huh?"

Sure enough. He finishes the last layer before blow drying my hair. Taking off the cover, he spins me back to face away from the mirror. Handing me a smaller one he smile,"What do you think? Adorable yes?"

I look at the back of my head in the smaller mirror. My hair really does look great. I smile at him, handing him the little mirror back. "How much do I owe you. Its wonderful!"

Pulling me up by my hand, he kisses my knuckles,"This ones on my sugar. Go get cho man gurl!" He gives me the biggest smile as I thank him.

I met Emily at the front and we had to the escalators. "So how do you like it?"

I grin at her,"I love it actually. I can't wait for it to get a bit longer though. I think snippy in there was a little on the sweet side don't you."

We burst out laughing as she nods her head. Stepping off the escalator, we head into the first shop we see. Not even checking the name. The place is simple, full of sun dresses and other casual type cloths and accessories. Emily turns to me,"Want to look here or somewhere else?"

"Well the date is casual but we'll come back and get accessories here. I want something a little more dressy."

She nods and we head back out, walking by the stores. Being sure to look at names and displays before walking into one. "How about that one?"

I look to where Emily is pointing. A small store in the corner. The sign above it has the word 'you' made out of a bunch of smaller words in different directions. "Lets check it out."

We walk in and gasp. At the front are some simple purses and other accessories. In the very middle is a checkout counter surrounded by some jeans and cute tanks. At the back thou, you can see shimmering shirts and dresses. Nothing too fancy, just sparkly and nice looking. We head to the back and start looking. Emily looks at me over the rack we are combing through,"What colors are you looking for?"

I stop, and give her a blank stare. I hadn't even thought about it. She smiles softly, reading my panicked expression. "How about red or blues?"

Nodding we start looking. After a few minutes of nothing catching my eye, I find a shirt and fall in love with it! I rush over to the jeans and find a black pair in my size, and a pair of capri's. "I'm going to try these on Em."

She nods as I head to the dressing room. Stripping into my underwear, I pull the capri pants on first, immediately not liking them. Putting them back on the hanger, I put them to the side to be put back. I pull on the form fitting jeans. Turning I decide on getting them. They hug my in the right places without being to tight. I pull on the tank next. I close my eyes for a second, praying it looks good. Opening my eyes I about cry. It looks great! Its solid black at the top half covering my chest. It then starts with lacy deep red layers that flow when I move. My eyes water, I actually look beautiful. Emily voice echos in the dressing room area,"Leah you still in here?"

I open the door and step out. Emily turns and gasp, smiling like a kid on Christmas. "Leah that looks amazing!"

"I'm getting this. Wait one sec and we can look for accessories." Emily nods with a smile, heading back out to start a search.

After chancing back into my own cloths, I hang the capri pants back up. Heading over to Emily she smiles, holding out a necklace. I shake my head, pearl looking is not my style. I grab a pair of black medium size hoops and we search for a necklace and bracelet. While searching, I glance over at Emily. "Thanks for doing this Emily."

She looks back over at me,"Your welcome Leah. I'm glade you let me. I missed this."

Tears stung my eyes as I continued looking,"Me too."

Authors Note: I was going to go until Chance picked Leah up for their date but thought this would be a much better ending for this chapter:) Thanks for reading! Review:)!
