"Hey Girls", Amy smiles mockingly. "Hot today, isn't it?"
Amy sits down at our table across from me by Caitlyn. I look at Caitlyn to see if she realizes what is going on. She's looking at me with a confused expression.
"Amy, this is Caitlyn. One of my friends from Camp Rock", I introduce them. A light comes into Caitlyn's eyes and I know she's figured it out. Amy stares at Caitlyn before sticking out her hand.
"Pleasure to meet you, Caitlyn! Now Mitchie, I'd love to have a word with you. In private, preferably", She says, taking her hand back from Caitlyn. She looked back at me again with a very fake smile.
I shake my head, "We can talk in front of Caitlyn. She knows everything that's happened in the last few days."
"Then she knows that you stole Shane from me?!" She glares, finally letting go of that fake smile. "She knows that we were friends and you went behind my back and stole my boyfriend even though you already have one?"
Her face is turning red and I swallow, "I never meant for him to break up with you. I did nothing to encourage that. I like Nate, not Shane. We are friends and I would never try and hurt you like that. I didn't do anything, I swear. It was all Shane. He's an idiot."
Amy glares at me for a little long before a tear slowly falls down her cheek. "I know. I think I just wanted someone else to blame. I'm so sorry, Mitchie!"
I grab Amy's hand to comfort her, "What are you doing today?"
Amy wipes eyes carefully before she answers, "I don't really know. I think I'll go to the mall. Shopping always cheers me up."
I smile as she laughs lightly. I look at Caitlyn and she nods.
"Do you want us to go with you? It could be more fun that way with a group."
Amy smiles, "You guys don't have to do this. You probably already had plans."
Caitlyn laughs, "Not really. We didn't have anything planned further than getting ice cream."
Amy beams at both of us. "I have my car outside if you guys want to leave now."
I nod, "We'll pay our bill and meet you out there, okay?"
Amy nods and leaves the store. I catch our waitress' attention and she struts over to our table. I bite my lip to keep from laughing. She collects our check and we get up to leave. Caitlyn watches the waitress go back to another table.
"I don't think she liked us", Caitlyn laughs.
"What made you think that?" I ask sarcastically. We walk out the door and get into Amy's car. She smiles at us and turns on the radio. "Shelf" comes on and I sink down in my seat, waiting for Amy's reaction. She turns off the radio.
"Looks like there nothing good on the radio today!" She says cheerfully. I guess she doesn't know what that song was about. I sigh with relief and look out the window. The trees are going by fast. It's only then, staring out at them, that I realize she's speeding.
I look over at Amy quizzically, "In a hurry?"
Amy gives me a confused look and then looks at the speedometer.
"Whoa! I didn't realize I was speeding. Guess my mind is just in other places today. Sorry and thanks! That was so lucky that there weren't any police officers out today. That would have been just horrible. I've never gotten a ticket before!"
I smile at her and Caitlyn looks out the car window, laughing.
"You have to admit it was kind of fun though", Caitlyn says, turning back and look at us. We laugh and Amy parks the car outside the entrance to J.C Penney's. We all get out of the car together and walk up to the mall. I'm getting a little excited. I have a bit of money to spend and it's been burning a hole in my pocket for quite a while now.
"Where to first?" Amy asks as we walk out of J.C Penney's and into the center on the mall.
I point to the nearest store that has a color display window with tons of over dressed mannequins. WE walk in and look around at the mountains of clothes.
I smile, "Where do we start?"
Caitlyn goes over to a corner and pick up a green suit, laughing. "Who would ever wear this?"
I laugh, "Try it on!"
Amy laughs also and picks up a magenta tank top and throws it at me. "This would look really good on you! You so have to try it on!"
I catch the shirt and look at it. It's a baby doll top. It does look cute so drape it across my arm and move around to look for more clothes. I snatch a silvery blue sequined cami and a pair of white skinny jeans. Caitlyn rolls her eyes.
"Don't you have enough skinny jeans?"
I feign surprise and disgust, "I can't believe you just said that! Don't you know that there isn't such a thing as too much skinny jeans?"
"I prefer straight leg jeans."
"That's just a step below skinny jeans!" I say with a big smile. Caitlyn rolls her eyes at me and I throw her a pair of faded skinny jeans. "These are really cute. Just try them on!"
Caitlyn sighs and hangs onto them. I smile triumphantly. Amy picks up a pair of skinny jeans too and a green ruffled shirt. We go to the dressing room and the attendant gives us rooms next to each other.
"Ok, the rules! We have to show each other what we have on, even if it's horrible!" Amy announces.
I look at my stack of clothes. Caitlyn had given me a heavily floral shirt with a huge bow and another shirt that was cheetah print. Amy had given me a pair of turquoise jeans and that magenta top.
I shrug, "Sounds ok to me!"
I dart into my dressing room and look at the floral shirt. Best to get the worst over with. I hear a knock at my door as I pull the shirt over my head. I open it and laugh. Caitlyn has on the green suit. Amy opens her door and laughs too. She comes out and pushes Caitlyn into my dressing room.
"Picture time!" Amy squeals
"Hey, I never agreed to anything like-"Caitlyn protests.
"Oh! Just shut up and smile! 1-2-3!" Amy says and snaps a picture. "Cute shirt, Mitchie!"
I roll my eyes, "Like yours is any better…"
Amy was wearing a black and brown shirt that hung just below her shoulders. Amy laughs and heads back into her dressing room.
"Round two!" I hear her call. Caitlyn sighs and goes back to her dressing room. I put on the turquoise jeans next with a white cami. I look at them in the mirror. They're actually kind of cute. I open my door and wait as Amy, wearing a beaded cami, and Caitlyn, wearing her faded skinny jeans, come in again.
"Wow! We look cute!" Amy exclaims. "I love the pants, Mitchie! You totally pull them off. Those jeans look really good on you, Caitlyn."
Caitlyn smiles and thanks her for the compliment. Amy snaps another picture and we try on new clothes. I put on the cheetah print shirt next. I wouldn't be bad if it weren't for the huge hideous bow at the side that hung in a droopy knot. The girls came back into the room. Their outfits were actually cute.
"Bad shirt!" Caitlyn laughs.
I roll my eyes, "Just take the picture!"
Amy obliges and we try on our last outfits. I pull the magenta tank top on and open my door once again. Caitlyn comes in wearing a black mini skirt and a zebra print t-shirt.
"Cute!" I exclaim. "You should definitely buy that!"
"Oh my gosh! Mitchie, if you don't buy that shirt, I'll buy it for you!"
I smile and turn towards Amy. She has on the green ruffled top.
"Wow! Same goes for you!" I laugh.
Amy grins, "Don't worry. I'm definitely buying this!"
We take our picture and put on our original clothes. I put the floral and the cheetah print shirt back on the rack and went to the counter to buy the magenta tank top and turquoise pants. Amy buys her green top and a denim mini. Caitlyn buys the black mini skirt, the zebra t-shirt, and the faded skinny jeans.
We take our bags and head off to the next store. I end up buying a lime green dress with beading around the waist.
After we're done shopping, Amy looks for the food court.
"Do you guys want to eat here", she asks, pointing to the food court, "or do you want to go out and get Chinese?"
I look at Caitlyn and we both turn to Amy at the same time, identical smiles on our faces.
"Chinese!"
Amy laughs and we walk out into the parking lot and put our bag into her car.
"Is China Garden ok?"
"Perfect!" Caitlyn and I exclaim in unison. We hop into the car and Amy drives down the street to China Garden Buffet. I breathe in the air as we get out.
"Smell like home?" Caitlyn jokes.
I glare at her and Amy looks at us quizzically.
"Mitchie pretended that her mom worked in China at Camp Rock so she could be friends with Tess Tyler."
"Is that TJ Tyler's daughter?" Amy asks excitedly.
I nod reluctantly, "That would be her!"
Amy squeals, "Wow! That's so cool. Don't worry, Mitchie. I probably would have done the same thing!"
I smile and walk into the restaurant. An old Chinese man greets us.
"Three?"
"Yes, please!"
"Right this way!" he says and we follow him to our table. We sit down and wait for someone to take our drink order. A girl comes over quickly. That's the brilliant thing about this place. You never have to wait for service. They always seem to appear out of thin air right when you need something.
"Drinks?" she asks with a heavy accent.
"I'll have a Pepsi", I say.
"A Sierra Mist, please."
"Umm… Raspberry Lemonade!" Amy orders.
The waitress nods and hurries away. We talk as we wait for the drinks to arrive. She's back quickly with a tray of drinks.
"Sierra Mist", she says and places the drink in front of Caitlyn.
"Pepsi", she says and gives me my drink. "Lemonade."
"Thank you!" we say and get up to go to the buffet. I take a plate and try a little of everything at the first row. My favorite is the orange chicken. I always get it when I come here. Once our plates are full, we go back and eat.
"What do you guys want to do after this?" Caitlyn asks.
"Want to rent a movie?" I ask. "We can watch it at my house. My mom will like me bringing home friends. She loves to entertain people."
"Sure!" Amy grins. "Let's get a comedy and a scary movie. They'll balance each other out."
Caitlyn laughs, "If you say so…"
We finish our food and go back up for dessert. I go over to the soft serve ice cream dispenser and get a bowl of vanilla ice cream. I put some bananas on top with strawberry sauce.
We sit back down and Amy looks at my ice cream.
"That looks really good! Mind if I have a bite?" she asks.
"Sure! As long as I get some of yours!" I add.
"Help yourself!"
I take a spoonful of her double chocolate cake. We decide to share our desserts and line them up in the middle of the table for everyone to reach. I try some of Caitlyn's, too. She has an apple turn over with a little bit of vanilla ice cream on the side. As we finish each other's desserts, the waitress comes by with our check. I thank her and we pay our bill, leaving a 15% tip.
"Ok. Where is the nearest movie store?" Amy asks.
"Down the street is a Hollywood Video."
Amy starts the car and drives to the movie store. We enter and scan the aisles, hoping for something to jump out at us.
"How about Disturbia?" Caitlyn asks.
"Sure! And White Chicks for our comedy? "Amy asks.
I nod and we check out the movies. We take them back from the employee and leave for my house. We pull up into the drive way and my mom opens the door.
"Hello ladies!" She says with a huge smile. I grin at my mom and we walk into the house. My mom looks at our bags. "Get anything cute?"
"Yeah. I'll show you later. We're going to go watch a few movies!" I say, holding up the movies for my mom to see. She nods and we go into the entertainment room and I set up the DVDs. My phone vibrates and I read the text message
To: Mitchie
From: Nate
"Can we hang out tonight?"
I sigh as I read the message. Tonight was a girl's night out so the answer had to be a no.
To: Nate
From: Mitchie
"Sorry. I'm having a girl's night out. I'll see you tomorrow though!"
