So here is chapter 6!

The girls are taking me shopping as they think that my clothes are 'so yesterday'. Its not my fault dad didn't want to give me money or wanted me to look pretty so other guys will ask me out. He thought I was gonna run away with them so thats why I had to keep Josh a secret.

Any way I want to forget about Josh. He just reminds me of my painful past and I want to move on. And what other way is there to get something out of your head other than shopping?

Macey mader us wear disguises in hope we won't be noticed. I was wearing a black wig with dark brown contacts. Macey had a curly red wig on with green contacts, Bex had a blonde wig with grey contacts while list had white blonde hair with purple contacts. We all wore sunglasses just in case.

When we entered the mall the girls dragged me to Guess and I must say they have amazing jeans (aaah i lurve their jeans and accessories) and lots of cute tops. I was looking through stuff and picking out stuff that I liked but hen suddenly Bex pushes me into a changing room while Macey shoves a pile of clothes at me to try.

"Hurry up! We'll wait outside and rate the outfit. Now go!" Macey demanded.

I sighed and put on the first outfit. It was an off white lacey dress with a slip underneath that reached mid thigh while the lacey bit reached just above my knees.

I nervously opened the door and stepped outside.

"So what do you think?" I asked them.

"10" Liz said generously.

"7" Bex said. I think she wasn't in the best mood today since grant pissed her off.

"9" Macey said and I mentally sighed of relief. I mean I obviously cared about what the others had to say but the final choice is up to Macey.

This went on for a while and when we were finally done I had thirteen new outfits.

We paid for the clothes and left the shop.

"Now lets go to Abercrombie" Macey said.

"There's MORE?" I asked astonished.

"More? That was only one shop. We've got at least seven more to go" Macey said.

"WHAAAAT?" I practically screamed at her.

She just ignored me and led the way to another store.

At the end of the day I had at least fifty bags and Macey had six bags while Bex and Liz each had a bag.

I had enjoyed it even thought my feet felt like they were falling off. I had always wanted to go shopping with my girl friends so am glad I did. My dad didn't let me go shopping with Dee dee or anyone. He always brought me oversized clothes in hope of not getting me noticed.

The clothes I bought today made me look nice. It showed my curves and brought out the colour in my eyes (Macey's words).

Before when I looked in the mirror, I saw a girl that had flat dull blonde hair and white pale skin with lifeless blue eyes. When she smiled her smile didn't quiet reach her eyes. And if you looked closely enough, you would see the pain and hurt in her eyes making you wonder what her story is. But no one bothered to find out her mystery before except two kids who betrayed her.

But now when I looked in the mirror, I saw a girl with shiny blonde soft curls and blue eyes that had a bit of green bouncing in them as if she was planning something; her cheeks had a more colour to them reminding you of a china doll. The pain and hurt were still in her eyes but there was something else too. It held hope. It held happiness.

I was recovering. Even though the two most people I trusted had betrayed me I mustered up the courage to let someone else in too. And seven other people too. I told them my story even though I had only known them for less than a week but I felt safe when I was around them. Especially a certain green eyed one.

Knowing that they will be there when I fell to always make me get up, I knew I could survive and achieve my dream.

And I was liking the girl am turning into.
