Ch 12

Peyton woke up the next morning feeling good about the day ahead of her. The past two days had been full of drama and she just wanted to relax. Today she had plans to go shopping with Suki and Mia since she had a limited amount of clothes. She was glad that Suki was an amazing driver and liked shopping. Peyton was the same way and for a long time thought she was the only one of her kind. She kicked the blanket off her and quietly crept out of the room so she wouldn't wake Mia. She went into the kitchen and made coffee since she was (as per usual) the first one up. She went to the bathroom and washed her face before she returned to the kitchen. When she did the coffee was done brewing. She quickly made herself a cup and then went to the downstairs living room to play Guitar Hero.

"Morning," Peyton greeted to Dom as she finished her song. She was surprised to see him up this early. He was usually the last one up… not including Vince.

"How are you so perky in the morning?"

"I'm not. I need coffee or I'm a tired and cranky bitch."

"I'd like to see that one morning."

"Sorry, not happening." She looked up at Dom to see he had a smile on his face. "What?"

"Nothing. How do you play this?"

"You hold down the button as the song plays." She took one look at his face and switched the game to a race car one. She handed him a controller and sat on the couch with him.

"So V told me you and Mia are going shopping today."

"Yea along with Suki." She looked at him with a slight glare. She returned her attention to the game before she went on. "Are you going to be able to part with her for a few hours or are you going to forbid her to do that?"

"You're still mad at me aren't you?"

"All my life I've been hearing what's best for me by other people, just like Mia and all I can tell you is it sucks."

"She's all I have left." Peyton was caught off guard by the venerability in his voice. She put a hand on top of his which made him look up at him.

"Then let her be happy and not psycho because she's being controlled so much." She took her hand away and picked a red Porsche for her car. "Ready to get your ass kicked?" Dom smiled.

"Don't get to cocky kid."

"Come on just try it on," Suki begged.

"What part of no do you not get?" Peyton snapped. Suki shook the pale pink corset in Peyton face. "Mia help!"

"I think it would look adorable on you. I really like how it laces up in the front." Peyton's eyes narrowed.

"Traitor." Mia laughed and Suki pushed Peyton towards the dressing room.

"Try these jeans on with it. They match the black lace." Peyton opened her mouth to argue, but Suki spoke first. "Look Brian gave me an eight hundred dollar limit. I'll be damned if we don't get you something incredibly sexy in pink." Peyton rolled her eyes and put on the outfit.

"See," Mia said when Peyton came out to look in the big mirror.

"Damn I'm good," Suki yelled a little to loud. Peyton twirled in the mirror to get a full view of her outfit. "I wished I had the boobs to get away with that outfit."

"I feel like I'm about to fall out of the top."

"That's how you're suppose feel," Mia told her.

"I don't know…"

"Come on, Pc, it's on sale for fifteen bucks." Peyton looked Suki with an idea.

"Only if you let me buy the cameo pants."

"Get the black halter to go with it and we have a deal."

"Done," Peyton agreed with a smile.

"But the pants have to be a size smaller."

"Nope that wasn't part of the deal."

"Mia?"

"Sorry Suki she's right." Suki put her hands on her hips annoyed.

"Love you Suki," Peyton said as she changed out of the clothes. She was surprised to see Suki at the check out buying her the pants (in the right size) along with the halter. Peyton gave the cashier the other two items. The three then walked out of the food court.

"Where next?" Suki asked carrying her bag. She had used Brian's money to buy herself a new shirt since Monica had tried to fit in on her tops. Peyton had collapsed on the floor from the laughing fit in the middle of the store.

"How about the food court," Peyton suggested. "I want chicken nuggets and a latte."

"That's a weird combination for a craving," Mia replied.

"We're going to have to call you Romia," Suki told Peyton. The three laughed as they got on line for food. When they got it they sat near the fountain.

"I think we should go back for that halter for you, Mia," Peyton admitted. "Red really looks good on you. And since we're going to be at a ton of races…"

"Fine we'll get it!"

"Told you I could do it," Peyton said to Suki.

"I bow at your feet."

"Wait the two of you were plotting against me?"

"Hey you turned on us to." They laughed. Suki stopped suddenly and looked at something behind Mia. Mia and Peyton looked and saw a tall women Suki's age with blond hair. Three girls stood behind her preparing to fight.

"Hello Suki," the blond said. She wore a fish net top with a blue bra and short shorts. "I thought I told you to stay away from me."

"You're the one that came up to me," Suki reminded her. "The mall is neutral territory."

"Let's do this now bitch!" The blond motioned to her friends as Suki got up. Peyton got up too along with Mia. "This doesn't concern you."

"You're messing with my friend," Peyton told her.

"So you're going get your ass kicked for nothing."

"I'm from New York. I'll kick your skank ass any time."

"That's the chick who got in a fight with Monica," one of her friends said.

"Yea, the funny thing is I didn't get to do half the damage I wanted to. Did I Mia."

"No you didn't." The blond looked at Peyton and Mia a little scared. She looked at Suki.

"I'll take care of you later."

"Have a nice day," Mia called as they left. "Bright ball of sunshine isn't she?"

"What was her problem?" Peyton asked.

"She wanted Tej and I got him. That and the fact that Brian wasn't interested in her."

"Better watch her Mimi."

"You too," Suki replied. "I heard she's looking at Dom." Peyton chocked on her latte.

"What do you mean?"

"She doesn't see it yet," Mia told Suki. Before Peyton could say something the conversation was switched to the party Tej was having tonight. Peyton still wondered while they talked what the two other girls meant.
