I am back once again! Woo-hoo for me! Haha!

Ken: Ford-chan? Calm down.

Fordina: :: Sighs :: Fine. Well, I guess I should just get on with it. As you know I don't own Digimon, OR any of the people in this fic. Seriously, I don't. Some of them are even authors on ff.net… Really…

A Story about Me

By: Fordina

Chapter 15- It's A Goddamn Dress!

The doorbell rings and I rush up to let Jennifer in. Yet when I get to the door I'm surprised to see Taichi there instead.

"Taichi! What—what are you doing here?" I asked ushering him inside thinking something had happened to Jennifer. "Did something happen to Jen?" But all he did was shush me by pressing his fingers to my lips.

"Shh… I'm trying to surprise her," He pulled me further inside and closed the door. "It's kinda our anniversary," He said moving his fingers away from my lips. I licked my lips. Mmm… He's had chocolate.

"What kind of chocolate did you have?" I asked, regretting it as soon as the words came out of my mouth.

"What?!" He asked backing up a bit.

"Gomen nasai… It's just that your fingers tasted like chocolate and I haven't eaten in a little while," I apologized.

"Hey it's alright… You just kinda freaked me out there for a second," He said putting his hand behind his head. Typical nervous reaction, for an anime character anyway.

Changing the subject quickly I asked, "So what anniversary is this?"

"Our first meeting."

"You actually remember the date?!" I asked incredulously. Yeah I know… Stereotypical of me to think that all guys can't remember important dates.

"Of course… I have all our first's written down, the dates I mean. I had actually planned our first meeting two weeks in advance."

Wow… I guess anime characters are better at this relationship thing then most human guys… Mental note: Ask Ken about this later.

"Now shh… She's coming…" Taichi said as he ran over to my mum's room.

I sighed, and walked over to the front door, before Jennifer could knock I had already opened it.

"You psychic or something Traci?" She asked walking inside.

"Nope… I could see you out my window. So, where are we going?" I asked grabbing my trench.

"Figured we just go down to GC, it's close and they still have some good stores."

"Alrighty," I said grabbing my keys and walking back towards the door.

"Do you have your money?" She asked as I went to close it.

"No… I don't plan on buying anything. I don't need anything anyway," I said as I locked it.

"Suit yourself…" We made our way down to her car.

"So you drove?" I asked.

"Yup! Feels nice to be able to drive without a parent. You really should go and get your license Traci. You'll love driving."

"I'm good with having you drive me around," I said buckling my seatbelt.

"Hey! I'm not going to drive you around just bec--" I had to stop her.

"C'mon Jen. Just drive."

We just pulled into the Mall parking lot when I remembered something. "Shit…" I cursed silently to myself.

"What is it?" Jen asked as we both got out of the car.

"Nothing… It's nothing…" I told her, then added, 'Hopefully Taichi won't be too pissed at me for stealing his girlfriend…'

"If you're sure…" She grabbed my hand. "C'mon! The Mall awaits!" I can't wait…

I'm not much of a shopper. Not typical for a teenage, or any age girl I know. I used to be. I used to beg my mum all the time to take me to the Mall. Now… now I feel like I've shopped all I can shop. Seen

all the stores, all they can sell… All I can buy.

Which is one reason why I didn't bring my wallet. I see so many things that I want… But know I shouldn't buy… And usually I'm good and I don't spend my money… Because really, I hate to spend it. But I can't help myself… So whenever I get dragged to the Mall by one of my friends… Which would be Jen and/or Zaira, I never bring my wallet.

"Hey Traci! What do you think of this one?" Jen asked holding up a powder blue tank.

"It's nice. The colour suits you," I told her walking over to where she was standing.

"Thanks," She said slinging that one over her arm then went back to scavenging through what seemed like the endless closet of clothes.

"You should get something."

I blinked. We hadn't said anything in a while. "I didn't being any money, remember?"

"Yeah… But I can always lend you some. I know you'll pay me back. And you don't even have to do that," After saying that she pulled something out. "There. This will look perfect on you!"

Tbc…

-_-** This is why I never go shopping with Jen. Ha! JJ ^^ Well I guess it's easy to figure out what she picked out for me by the title for this chap… I thought it suited well.

Ken: Yup, yup.
