Chapter 4:

It was only two days until my date with Ken. I could not wait! But, I didn't have anything to wear! And so I went shopping. I walked to the mall near our apartment. There I met a girl with pink wavy hair and a shirt that said: "property of Tai".

"Hi!" I said, trying to make more friends.

"Oh, hi!" she replied in a high-pitched voice. "What's your name?"

"Bethany Wilkins, and you?"

'Oh, Mimi Tachikawa."

"Do you know Tai Kamiya?"

"Duh!" she said pointing to her shirt, "he's my boyfriend!"

"You sure picked a hottie!"

"Yea," she said dreamily

"Can you help me find an outfit?' I asked

She snapped out of her daze and asked me, "date?" I nodded and she said, "I've got the perfect thing!"

She walked over to a rack of beautiful strapless, red, mini-dresses.

"How cute!" I exclaimed and looked at the price tag. "Or not..." and I started to back away form the rack when Mimi said, " I could get you a discount!!"

"Really? Thank you so much, that would be great!"

I bought the dress for only fifteen dollars. Mimi insisted I get makeup too. She sure knows her shopping! She talked me into buying some light colored eye-shadow and light pink lipstick that Mimi said was "to die for!" so I was all ready for the big date with a whole day to spare.

The next day I played soccer with Tai and his friends. That meant Ken too! I soon found out why they call him, 'the Rocket'. Whenever we were benched together, he'd lean over to me and whisper, "tomorrow's the day", and smile real cute. I couldn't have thanked my lucky stars enough!

Ken: did u forget about me mary? Mary: yes, I am soooo sorry!!! How can I ever make you forgive me? Ken: *points to his cheek* Mary: oh, teehee. *kisses Ken* I think I'm going to faint!
