A/N: Hey guys! Here's Chapter 16! I'm doing a disclaimer because you can probably figure out if I own something or not. LOLOL! Today's is extra long! Hope you enjoy!
A/N 2: In the last chapter, I wote Anna's whole name in: Anna Miley Stewart. Well, I must've remembered it from Luvs-Mitchel-Musso's stories, so I don't own that. LOL
Chapter 16
Alex walked over to Anna and kneeled down so that she was at Anna's height.
"Alright, I'll be gone for most of the day, so I'll be gone for nap time," she said.
"But how am I going to take a nap?" Anna asked.
"After lunch time, Jackson is going to take you upstairs and you will take your nap and then you can come back down," said Alex.
Anna nodded and gave Alex a hug. Alex hugged her back and then got up and thanked Maddie.
"Thank you so much Maddie!" she said.
"It's no problem! Does she have a lunch or no?" asked Maddie.
Alex's eyes got wide, "Oh man, I knew I forgot something!" she said.
Jackson came over, "You are very lucky you have me for a cousin," he said holding his wallet. "I'll take her to McDonald's for lunch," he said.
Alex smiled and gave him a hug, "Thank you so much!" she said.
"No problem," he said.
Alex waved and walked over to the girls.
"Stop right there Alexandra Lydia Stewart!" said a voice.
Alex cringed, "Oh no," she said under her breath.
Robbie walked over to Alex, "I have it from a reliable source, that you had an attack," he said.
"W-w-what are you talking about?" she asked. 'Oh no, if he knows, he might not let me go!' she thought
"Drop it Alexandra!" he said.
Alex sighed, "Fine, I did have one, but it was over in a minute, and Miley helped me!" she exclaimed.
"Don't you yell at me!" he said.
"Sorry," she said looking down.
Robbie took a deep breath, "It's okay, but I need to know these things," he said looking at her.
"Yes sir," she said, "Can I still go with my friends?" she asked.
Robbie sighed, "Yes, but we get back to Malib-oops," he said.
"What are you talking about? I live in Tennessee," she said.
"Right, my bad," he said quickly.
Alex shrugged, "Hey," she said as he was walking away. Robbie turned around, "Who told you?" she asked.
"I can't tell you," he said.
Alex sighed, "Okay," she said. She walked over to the girls.
"Sorry guys," she said.
"No problem," said Gabriella.
"Yeah, it's fine," said Taylor.
Miley and Lily were staring off into space. Alex pinched their arms.
"OW!" they both yelled.
"Are you okay?" asked Alex.
"Not anymore!" they both said.
Alex rolled her eyes, "Why were you guys starring off into space?" she asked.
"I got a date!" they both said
"Me too!" they both said again.
"No way!" they both said again.
"Okay, you guys REALLY need to stop!" said Alex, "So, who are you are going out with?"
"Zack!" said Lily.
"No way!" said Alex.
"I haven't been this happy since Jake Ryan learned my name!" said Lily.
Alex laughed, "So, who are you going out with?" she asked turning to Miley.
"Cody!" she said. "I have been this happy since I was almost about kiss Jake Ryan!" she said.
"O-kay," said Alex.
"Where should we go first?" asked Gabriella.
All the girls thought for a minute, "Mall!" they all said.
They all walked out and called a cab. They got in and headed toward the mall.
"Oh my gosh! I saw Monster House a couple weeks ago! It was awesome!" said Alex.
"Oh my gosh, I know! I saw it, and I couldn't stop laughing!" said Lilly.
Alex nodded. (I know I put Mitchel in the story, but I love the jokes about it, so, pretend I didn't LOL)
"Didn't that DJ kid remind you of someone?" asked Miley.
"He was played by some Mitchel person," said Alex.
"Maybe Oliver will know!" said Lilly.
"Why would Oliver know?" asked Gabriella.
"He loves scary movies," said Alex.
"But Monster House wasn't that scary," said Lilly.
"I know, but he might know…." said Miley.
Alex nodded and picked up her phone and called Oliver and put it on speaker.
"Hello?" said Oliver.
"Hey Oliver, Its Alex," she said.
"Hey there," he said.
"Have you ever heard of a Mitchel person, you know, he was in Monster House?" asked Alex.
"Uh…I have no idea who you are talking about, but that DJ kid did remind me of someone," he said.
"We know that, we are trying to figure out who!" said Alex.
"Well, I have no idea," he said.
"Okay, thanks anyway," she said.
"No problem. Hey, do you want to go out on a date tonight?" asked Oliver.
"Yeah! Sounds like fun!" she said.
"Awesome, I'll meet you in the lobby at eight!" he said.
"Okay, see you later, love you," she said.
"Love you too," he said.
Alex closed the phone, "Well, he wasn't any help!" she said.
"Yeah, but you have a date tonight!" said Miley.
Alex's eyes got wide, "Oh my gosh! What am I supposed to wear?" she asked.
"Alex! We are at the mall! There has to be something in here you can wear," said Taylor.
Alex nodded.
The girls paid the cab driver and got out. They walked into the mall.
"Wow!" said Alex.
"You act like you've never been to the mall!" said Miley.
"Miley, you know what it's like in Tennessee!" said Alex in a southern accent.
Miley nodded, "True," she said.
"Well," said Gabriella, "Let's not stand here, let's go!"
Alex, Miley, Lilly, Taylor and Gabriella started walking around.
First, they headed into Papaya to look for an outfit for Miley.
"So, Miley," said Gabriella, "Are you a skirt or dress person?"
"Skirt," she said.
Alex held up a pink mini skirt with ruffles at the hem, "This?"
"Hmmm….I don't think so…." she said.
Alex put it back and continued looking at the rack.
"What about this?" asked Taylor holding up a red mini skirt with black dots all over it.
"I don't think so," said Miley.
"What about this?" asked Gabriella. She was holding up a teal knee-length skirt with sparkles all over it.
"Now that's cute!" said Miley. She walked over to it and took it into the dressing room. She came out about a minute later wearing the skirt.
"That looks great on you!" said Lilly.
Everyone agreed.
"Alright," said Miley. She walked back into the dressing room and came out wearing her pants.
"Now we need a shirt," said Lilly.
They all headed over to the shirt section.
"What about this?" asked Alex holding up a plain white t-shirt.
Miley thought about it, "Maybe," she said.
Alex held on to it.
"What about this?" asked Taylor holding up a black crop top.
"I'm not sure," said Miley.
"I found a shirt!" said Lilly. She held up a white tee shirt with light blue stars on it.
"That might be a little to flashy Lils," she said.
Lilly shrugged and put it back.
"What about this?" asked Gabriella holding up a black spaghetti strap top.
Miley shook her head.
"This?" asked Lilly holding up a pink tank top with ruffles on the edges.
Miley shook her head.
"What are you and Cody doing?" asked Alex.
"Dancing," Miley answered looking through a rack of dresses.
"Wow," said Alex.
"This?" asked Lilly holding up a brown halter top with teal lines at the bottom.
Miley took it in to the dressing room along with the skirt. She came out about a minute later. The shirt left about an inch of her stomach showing, and looked great along with the teal skirt.
"Wow," said Taylor.
"Wow," said Lily, Gabriella and Alex.
"You like it?" she asked.
"We love!" they all said.
Miley laughed. She went back into the dressing room and came out in her old outfit. She took it up the register and gave the cashier a credit card and walked out.
"Where next?" she said.
"Let's do Alex next!" said Taylor.
"What! No! I mean," Alex stuttered.
"Oh come on!" said Gabriella. They dragged her Girls World (Made it up!) and they went over to the pink section.
"What are you and Oliver doing?" asked Taylor.
"Uh..." said Alex.
Lilly and Miley laughed, "Sounds fun," said Miley.
Alex rolled her eyes.
"Should I call Oliver and ask?" asked Alex.
"Yeah, we need to know," said Miley looking through a rack of shirts.
Alex nodded and just then, her phone rang.
She looked at her caller ID, it said Oliver Cell.
"Hello?" she asked.
"Hey," said Oliver.
"What's up?" she asked.
"Well, I was wondering what you wanted to do tonight," he said.
"I don't know…" she said, "I was just about to ask you the same question!"
Oliver laughed, "What about dancing? Cody and Miley are going," he said.
"You mean like a double date?" she asked.
"Yeah, Cody said it was fine, you just need to ask Miley," said Oliver.
"Okay…" she put the phone face down on her shoulder. "Miles?" she asked.
"Yeah, Alex?" she asked.
"Cody and Oliver want to know if we can double date?" she asked.
Miley nodded and smiled, "Sounds like fun!" she said.
Alex put the phone to her ear, "She said yes!" she said.
"Awesome, so we will meet you at the lobby at seven!" he said.
"Okay, see you then," she said.
"Love you," he said.
"Love you too," she said.
Alex hung up the phone and went to a rack of dresses and mini skirts.
"What about this?" she asked holding up a pink mini strapless dress.
"Try. It. On. Now!" commanded Miley.
Alex laughed, "Okay," she said. She walked into the dressing room and came out. The pink dress was light pink and had ribbons that wrapped around her wrist.
"You like?" she asked.
All the girls were awe.
"It's FAB-U-LOUS!" said Lilly.
"Totally!" said Taylor.
"Fantastic!" said Gabriella.
"Gorgeous!" said Miley.
Alex beamed, "Thanks guys," she said. She went back into the dressing room and came out wearing her old outfit.
"I think I'm gonna get it," she said walking over to the cashier.
"That will be one hundred dollars," said the lady coldly. She had blonde hair and wore a gray button up shirt with a light blue under shirt. She had on a gray skirt. (Remember the snobby sales lady from No So Suite 16 and What the Hey? That's her)
Alex gave her the credit card.
"Size two, aren't we being a bit daring?" she asked as she rang up the dress.
"Oh no you didn't," said Alex taking the card back.
Alex took the bag and walked out of the storm fuming.
"Alex, what's the matter?" asked Miley.
"That lady called me fat!" she said.
"Oh no she didn't!" said Lilly.
Alex nodded and sighed.
"Oh come on girl!" said Taylor, "You so aren't fat! Now, let's go find an outfit for Lilly!"
Alex nodded and followed Lilly into Sk8er Grl World.
"Why are we in here?" asked Alex.
"Well, since Zack and I are going skating, I thought we should go in here," said Lilly.
Alex nodded.
Lilly walked over to a shirt and pant outfit. She went into the dressing room and came out a minute later wearing a pink camouflage shirt and black jeans.
"Wow! That is awesome! I'm so getting one in blue!" said Alex. She got the exact same shirt and pants combo, except the shirt was blue camo shirt.
"Okay, so everyone has their outfit?" asked Gabriella.
Alex, Lilly and Miley nodded.
"Alright, now let's shop till we drop!" said Miley.
Miley, Lilly, Alex, Gabriella, and Taylor shopped till they dropped. Literally. By four, they were ready to collapse. When they got back to the Tipton, Lilly, Miley, Gabriella, and Taylor went upstairs, while Alex went up to the candy counter where Anna was listening to Alex's iPod.
"Hey Maddie," said Alex sleepily.
"Hey," said Maddie looking at Alex, "Have fun?"
Alex nodded, "Now I know what they mean by shop til' you drop!" she said laughing.
"Well, I'm sure you'll get used to it when you get back to Mal-oops," said Maddie.
"Why is everyone saying I'm going back to Malibu?" asked Alex. "I like in Tennessee!"
"Sorry, I just got confused," said Maddie.
Alex shrugged and walked over to Anna.
"Did you have fun?" Alex asked.
Anna nodded, "It was awesomeful!" she said.
Alex laughed, "I think you mean awesome."
"Nope, awesomeful," she said.
Alex shrugged and took Anna's backpack.
"Here you go," said Alex giving Maddie a fifty dollar bill.
Maddie looked at it like it was gold, "No, I can't take this. I mean,"
"Yes you can!" said Alex interrupting, "You babysat her for eight hours!"
Maddie looked up shyly, "Are you sure?"
"Positive," she said.
Maddie gave Alex a hug, "Thank you so much!"
"It's no problem," said Alex. "Say good-bye Anna!"
"Good-bye Anna!" Anna said not paying any attention.
Alex laughed and headed toward the elevator. When the elevator dinged, Alex and Anna got in and waved to Maddie.
When they got up to their floor, Alex went over to her Robbie and Jackson's room. Alex knocked on the door.
Robbie came to the door, "What's up Alexandra?" he asked.
"Well, Miley, Lilly, and I have to get ready for our dates, so I was wondering if you could watch her?" she asked.
Robbie looked at her uncertainly, "Aw, alright, I'll watch her," he said.
Alex squealed, "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" she said.
Robbie gave Alex a hug and took Anna into the room and shot the door.
Alex went to her door and put in the keycard and the door unlocked. Alex opened the door and collapsed on the couch in exhaustion.
A minute later, Alex shot up. "Oh my gosh! We only have two hours for Lilly to get ready!"
Miley shot up and ran over to the stack of bags and started to try to find the bag with the skateboard on it.
"Here it is!" she said holding up the bag. She threw it to Lilly and Lilly ran into the bathroom to change. She came out wearing the outfit and Miley pushed her into a chair.
"OW!" said Lilly.
Miley rolled her eyes and started to put make-up on Lilly. She applied pink eye shadow, black eyeliner, black mascara, pink blush and pink lip gloss.
Lilly got up and was pushed back into the chair by Alex.
"OW!" said Lilly.
Alex rolled her eyes and got out the hair curler and started to curl the bottom of her hair.
"Wa la!" said Alex.
"It is Perfecto!" said Miley.
Gabi and Taylor nodded.
"Oh snap! Lilly, it's 6:45!" said Gabriella.
Lilly jumped up, waited a minute to make sure that no one would push her back down and ran to her suitcase to grab her skateboard gear.
"Have fun Lilly!" said Alex.
"Have a great time!" said Taylor.
"Be back by ten!" said Miley.
Lilly rolled her eyes, "Yes ma'am," she said. She walked out the door, skateboard in hand.
"Well Alex, we better get ready," said Miley. Alex nodded and dug through the mountain of shopping bags and found the papaya bag, and threw it to Miley, and it hit Miley, square in the face.
"Ow! That hit me in the eye!" said Miley.
Alex laughed and found the Girl's World bag.
"Well, we better get going," said Taylor.
"We do?" asked Gabriella.
"YES! We are all having dinner at Outback!" said Taylor.
Gabriella sighed, "Alright, see you guys later," she said.
"Bye!" they both said as Gabriella and Taylor walked out the door.
Alex went into the bathroom while Miley went into the bedroom to change. Alex put on her dress tied the ribbons around her waist, and put on the pink heeled sandals she had bought at Payless. She put her hair up into a bun and left a few strands hanging down. She put on a little bit of make-up, barely enough to be noticeable. Meanwhile, Miley put on her teal skirt and the brown halter top. She straightened her hair and then put it up into a bun and left a few strands, and curled them. Miley put on a little more make-up then Alex, and then stepped out of the bedroom as soon as Alex stepped out of the bathroom.
"You look great!" they both said.
"No you do!" they both said again.
"Okay, okay, we both look good," they both said. The started laughing hysterically.
Miley walked over to the mountain of bags and pulled out a bag from Claire's. She pulled out two purses, a pink hand purse (is that what's it's called? It's a tiny purse you hold in your hand) for Alex, and a teal purse for herself. She handed the purses to Alex and they both put their cell phones, lip gloss, and their wallet into the purses.
Alex sighed, "Here we go!" she said.
Miley nodded and walked out the door, followed by Alex.
