As Ruthie and Martin walked out of the house, there was a light sprinkle outside. "Are you sure you still want to go?" she asked him looking at the rain. Martin kindly opened the door for Ruthie to get in. "It's only a light sprinkle. It'll fade." He said. 'He's such a gentleman' she smiled. "Okay then. Thanks" she said. "No problem" he answered.

He went to the other side and got in himself. "So where do you want to go?" He asked as he started his engine. "Anywhere is fine.." she said smiling at him.

"Umm.. how about the mall?" he asked. "Sure why not?" she said. He pulls the car out and starts to go to the mall.

There was an awkward silence in the car. 'What am I suppose to say to her?' he kept asking himself, not knowing what to say. 'I don't know what to say to him' she kept telling herself.

Soon they reached the mall. As they were walking in, Martin couldn't take the silence. "So what did you want to buy?" he asked.

"I don't know..maybe look around" she said. "Okay. Just make sure you don't pull me into any stores … that I'm not suppose to be in." He said. They both laughed.

They walked in and around the stores. They walked around and joked. Just then they ran into Vincent and Sara. The four looked up and saw each other.

Sara saw Ruthie and Martin. At first her expression was angry but all of a sudden, she turned surprised. Vincent had a smirk on his face as he held Sara. Ruthie looked up and just looked at Martin. Martin held his fist as if he wanted to punch Vincent all over again. Just then, Ruthie took Martin's hand and eased the fist out. Just as Sara's expression turned sour again, Ruthie pulled on Martin and they walked past them.

"Why did you pull on me?" Martin asked in curiousity. Ruthie looked at him with the as-if-you-don't-know face.

"Well first of all, you looked like you were about to beat the crap out of Vincent again, and second of all, I really didn't want any more drama." She said. He looked at her. She didn't look as hurt.

"Does that mean you're over him?" he asked. "yeah.. I think I am" she answered honestly. He let out a light sigh of relief. "Anyways, let's continue." They walked around some more and walked by Victoria's Secret. That's when she stopped and started walking in. He looked up at the sign then down at her.

"You really don't expect me to go in there do you?" he asked her, thinking she was joking. "Oh come on and man up! It's just a lingerie store!" Ruthie laughed grabbing his shirt. "This is exactly what I mean when I say a store I'm NOT supposed to be in!" he said as he was pulling her back out lightly but secretly not using as much force as he would have since he wanted her to flirt with him. She did it for a while seeing that he keeps smiling as he pulled back out. She kept flirting with him till he gave in and went in with her.

"Alright I'll go in! Jeez the things I do for you." He said to her. "Haha I win again" she said smiling. 'he always lets me win' she thought to herself. They walked in and she looked around to see if she could find anything new. He followed her closely.

"Why are you so close to me?" she asked looking at him suspiciously. "This isn't a store that a guy like me would just wonder in without a girl you know!" he said back to her. 'And also because I want to stay close to you forever' he thought to himself. She laughed. "Fine, but stop stepping on me!" she said as she bent down to rub her ankle.

He laughed. "Sorry" They continued walking and she walked to the box of thongs. The sign said "10 for $20"

"Hey pretty good price." She said but Martin didn't hear. He was entertaining himself with his thoughts. She looked through the box but couldn't decide. She then looked at him and saw he wasn't paying attention either. "HELLO ! Earth to Martin!" she said loudly. "Wha?" he looked up.

He then saw her with the thongs. His eyes widened. "When did we get here?" he asked frantically. She laughed. "They're just thongs Martin. Which reminds me, pick please"

He didn't get the words in his head. 2 seconds later, it finally got to him. He turned and looked at her with the are-you-crazy look. "What!" he said to her. "Pick." She said.

"Why me! They're for you! You pick!" he said as if she had just told him to jump off a bridge. "I can't. it's too hard just choose." She said to him holding them for him. "Fine…" he said.

He picked a few random ones and then they finally got 10. "Thank you" she said with a funny smile on her face. 'I love those smiles' Martin thought as he followed her to the cash register.

As she gave the cashier the thongs, the cashier looked up at Martin. She smiled as he blushed and looked at the ground. When they were done, they walked out. "I'm never going in there with you again." He said as they continued walking. "Don't worry I'll drag you in again." They both laughed.

They continued to scout and soon went to the food court. "What do you want to eat Ruth?" Martin asked looking around. "Surprise me. I'm gonna go use the restroom." She said as she walked away.

After Ruthie was done, she walked out of the restroom and she felt someone grab her arm. She looked up at someone who had her against the wall. "Hey honey, how I've missed you." She looked at the person. It was Vincent. She pulled her arm back and slapped him. "What the hell do you want?" she said.

"Aww. Is that what I get?" he asked smirking. "I just wanted to let you know that I still love you. You want to fool around? No one gotta know. I know you still love me but I don't see why you always around Martin."

"Are you kidding me? You are crazy if you think that I would even think about getting back with you! You are the one guy I wish would go to hell! Martin's always been there for me and you've been nothing but trouble! I am over you and I will always be over you! Go to hell!" she screamed as she walked away from him. He tried pulling her back but she pulled her arm away. He ran after her. Just then she saw …
