Please Read, Enjoy, and REVIEW!!

I used to hate shopping when I was younger. I don't know. There was just something about it that made me dislike it. I guess I was young and restless and I didn't like walking around in the stores for hours unless it was toy shopping, but now? I'm a freaking shop-a-holic. That's why I couldn't wait to go shopping with Veronica. When we got to the mall we decided to first go to Wet Seal. I know that a lot of the stores in the mall can be pricey, but clearance is always nice. She found herself this really cute outfit that Ryan's going to drool over. Veronica is so going to look so pretty in it.

"Ryan is going to be all over you," I said. "He'll definitely fall for you." She smiled.

"Just like Shawn's going to fall for you?" I sighed and mumbled 'Hopefully.'

She had picked out a green and white diagonal striped tunic tube top and under the bust was a green belt with a hot pink heart on it. The green really brought out her eyes. The shirt could either be worn as a long shirt or a mini dress, but she wanted to wear it as a shirt and got skinny jeans to go with it. And when we were waiting on line to pay for her stuff I saw the perfect accessory to go with it! Want to know what it is? Let me give you a hint. Something that Ryan wears. Yup, crazy hats, although this one is really cute. It's white and has this little buckle thing. I showed it to her and she got really excited.

"Oh my gosh! That's SO CUTE! You thought the outfit was going to make Ryan fall for me, but this will have him fall for me for sure."

After she paid, we decided to go to American eagle. I went straight to the clearance since I only make five dollars a week for allowance; I only really have about $40 dollars to spend since I want to save some of my money. When I walked to the clearance section, I saw such a pretty shirt. It was a blue patchwork halter top so the blue would REALLY bring out my eyes. Now all I needed was a skirt or jeans. I looked around in the clearance, but I didn't see much that caught my eye. I looked around a little more and found a really cute white denim mini skirt. Even though I'm short, this skirt made my legs look a lot longer. I had shoes at home so I could just find some there.

When Veronica and I left the mall, we were talking about tomorrow and our plan while waiting for Troy to pick us up. Operation Troyella, Ryonica, and Shaimee? She came up with the names, so don't ask.

"Okay," she said. "Remember to start small with spin the bottle or truth or dare. Plus Sharpay has Zeke so it's not like she'd try to interfere."

"But I wanted to lock them in a closet so then can realize their undying, passionate love for one another," I whined.

She gave me a strange look as if she thought I was crazy or something. "You and your soap operas," she mumbled as she shook her head. Then she looked up at me and gave me a sympathetic smile. "We'll leave that as a last resort."

I crossed my arms in mock anger and then Troy showed up. We got in the car and right away Veronica asked, "So are you and Gabby going out yet because it's been almost a year? I mean you got to ask the girl out sometime. You can't just pretend to be each other's friend forever since you both have, as Aimee would say, an undying, passionate love for one another."

He just turned around before he started to drive and gave us a blank stare. "You guys are very crazy." He turned back around and started to drive. "So what did you get?" He started to play that overprotective big brother act again.

Veronica and I looked at each other and smirked. "Well Aimee here got some very sexy lingerie."

"WHAT?" He screamed while keeping his eyes on the road. Wow, what talent. No car accident or anything.

"Oh yeah." I stated. "I'm planning to go up to Shawn tomorrow and rip off my clothes to show him my sexy lingerie and say, 'Shawn, I am so much hotter than Brianna,' and then I'll start making out with him." I said this in a sarcastic tone.

I saw Troy relax a little realizing that we were just joking. "Do you really think I'd do that?" I asked. "I'm not Brianna."

"I know, but now because of your little comment, I'm making sure that when you and Shawn do get together you two are never going up to your room with the door closed."

I rolled my eyes. "I already had 'The Talk,' with mom, Troy. I really don't want to hear it from you." We pulled up at Veronica's house and we said our goodbyes to her.

Awkward silence… "So…" I said trying to make small talk.

"I found your notebook when you left." He said. Please don't let it be my diary, please don't let it be my diary. "It wasn't your diary; I could tell what you were thinking. It was a big black notebook with 'Love Sucks,' written in red on the front. Well I was flipping through the pages because I didn't know it was yours at first."

I interrupted him. "Yeah, because dad would really carry around a notebook like that."

He chose to ignore my comment. "While I was flipping through I came across a page that said, 'Troyella,' on the top and what looked like plans written underneath. This doesn't by any chance happen to be you trying to get me to ask Gabriella out now is it?"

"Psh." I replied trying to look not too obvious. I didn't want my plan to get ruined. "No! Why would you think that?" He gave me a look as we pulled in the driveway. "Oh look! We're home." As he turned off the car, I grabbed my bag and ran into the house and up to my room. Phew! That was a close one.

Now press the purple little button down there (or is it perriwinkle) and tell me what you thought about this chapter.
