Perfect Stranger 1
PERFECT STRANGER
Two best friends are walking through an LA shopping mall.
"Hey I bet you can't pick up one of those r.o.c.k.(rich o.c. kids)girls" Jodie smirked knowing Alex would take her up on that bet and they would be entertained for a while.
Alex scoffed in return,"You're on..and I'll do you one better, not only could I hit on one of them... I will pick up a girl from the OC."
Jodie just shook her head knowing her friend was probably right, she always managed to make a girl fall for her. Her charm had even worked on Jodie when they first met. She was looking around when she finally responded, " Fine!.. Oh look there goes a couple of O.C. snobs now."
Meanwhile, on the other side of the mall headed towards J and A, another set of bf's Marissa and Summer were doing some shopping of a different kind.
"Coop! Remind me again why we come to this mall its so far from home." summer whined
"Because Sum you know this mall has the best sales and its good to break away from the normal, besides its only 20 minutes and we have dance class right down the street."
"Yea well I still say there is a dance studio closer to home with 'better' surroundings."
"Coop are you even listening to me?.."
" Huh? Oh sorry Sum I guess I was just spaced out in my thoughts."
"Yea I guess...What the hell are you thinking about anyway?... Ryan?... I thought you were over that"
" Oh I am... I can't really explain it though...lets just shop ok?"
" Sure Coop but Im here if you need me..just don't go all lesbo on me" Summer said laughing.
Marissa just smiled softly as the two girls walked into a store to buy new bathing suits.
Alex looked and the two girls walking towards them and was immediately drawn to tall brunette.
Jodie noticed her friend staring at the girl and thought 'well this should be fun' she decided to take matters into her own hands "Since its my money at risk here, I get to decided who you hit on"
Not really realizing her friend had caught her staring she said "sure Jo whatever you say"
"Well since your so willing...I choose that lanky brunette over there"
Alex looked at Jodie in disbelief but know Jodie would never let her back out she decided to at least seem confident about it.
" You better get to it Cohen there finished in that swim wear store and walking away"
Alex paused a minute, trying to decided how to go about the deed before heading towards the other two girls. "Later"
Marissa gazed off only half listening to Summer rant about the bathing suits they had just bought. Little did she know her world was about to take a turn.
She turned towards Summer because she was about to try and shut the petite girl up when she suddenly felt a pair of arms around her waist. " Hey gorgeous... where you headed?"
Summer screamed but Marissa's move was to turn and stare at the blond who still had a hold of her.
This surprised all of them.
Marissa thought ' I should probably smack this girl and run but for some reason I feel really safe.'
Alex was thinking ' Well this isn't the reaction I was expecting but wow this girl has really beautiful eyes'
Summer now stood dumbfounded wondering what just happened.
After a minute Marissa decided to strike a conversation with the girl " What makes you think im gonna tell you?"
Alex smiled as she responded confidently " Well I just figured your cute and Im cute so we should hook up and be cute together."
"Touche but no that ain't gonna happen." Marissa managed to giggle out. She was trying to figure out why she felt like she knew this girl already. What was really confusing was why she couldn't stop staring at her.
" Well I'm Marissa Cooper and this is Summer, you got a name?"
" Alex" Alex was mentally thanking Jodie for forcing her into this because even if nothing happened this girl was breathtaking.
" Marissa chuckled before asking " What no last name?"
Alex just smirked then answered, " Yea I got one and if your nice to me for a while I just might tell you."
" Well maybe I'll never know then" Marissa thought to her self that she could talk to this girl for hours and she probably would have if Summer who had been standing there silently all this time hadn't finally spoken up. It was at the sound of her voice that the girls realized they were still in an embrace and they immediately broke free.
" Well this is very nice and all but what gives you the right to just grab someone by the waist and besides that didn't you hear her introduce me, Summer, geez these hooligans have no manners."
Alex and Marissa looked at each other before bursting out in laughter and the tiny girls angry rant. The both stopped when they looked at her again and realized she was serious.
Summer continued " and did I miss something.. Do you to know each other?"
Alex answered first " Well first off I apologize Summer, Its very nice to meet you and no we don't know each other." She turned to Marissa as she continued " Listen you seem like a nice girl so I'm gonna ask you do me a favor."
"Maybe" Marissa said with a raised eyebrow.
" Right so... The reason I came over here is because my friend bet me I couldn't pick up a Newport girl... I never back down from a challenge and you two were the first to walk by so she chose you as a target... I just need you to flirt with me in front of her so I can win the bet."
"Do I get any of the money?" Marissa questioned.
" How about this?.. If you do this for me I will take you to get Ice cream for the Hagen Daaz over there.""Deal?"
Marissa stopped for a sec which caused Alex to worry before she said "deal."
Alex turned to get Jodie before stopping and looking at Summer "Oh and there's ice cream in it for you to Summer if you don't rat us out"
" ugh fine whatever just hurry up about it" summer spat.
After calling Jodie over Alex looked to Marissa and began giving the girl her cell number " you get that?"
"Yea I got it" Marissa smiled which Summer noticed she been doing a lot of since Alex approached them.
" Hey Al what's up" Jodie asked not knowing what to expect.
" Oh I just wanted to introduce you to my date for fridays's party, Marissa and her best friend Summer." " Oh yea and to tell you to find a new ride because I am taking her to dinner first." She looked back at a semi shocked Marissa who was trying to play it off and winked.
Jodie looked shocked for more than one reason. One because Alex had seemingly managed to pick up another girl and two because she hadn't expected Summer to look so beautiful.
Alex was satisfied in her work so she non-chalantly changed the subject " Now then I promised these two young ladies ice cream so lets head that way."
Marissa just shook her had at her new friend before realizing the her and Summer weren't only in town to shop but the also had dance class. She looked at her watch to see that class started in 5 minutes and they still had to get there and change.
"Actually Summer and I have to go to dance but we'll take a rain check on that ice cream."
" Well then I guess I 'll see you on Friday.""Summer will you be joining us at that party?"
"Yea I guess." Summer responded while she and Marissa hurried to class.
" Hey Marissa... Cohen." Alex shouted after them
" What?" Marissa asked confused.
" My last named it's Cohen"
Both Marissa and Summer stopped completely shocked before realizing that they really needed to leave.
