Later on that day Haley was out shopping and spotted Brooke, she spoke, "Hi Brooke."

Brooke looked surprised to see Haley she said, "Hey Haley what brings you to the mall?"

Haley answered, "I just felt like shopping."

Brooke questioned, "Really?"

Haley explained, "Well I have this good friend who once told me sometimes a girl jus has to go out on a shopping spree for herself."

Brooke remarked, "I'm surprised you took her advice."

Haley replied, "Well she showed me sometimes you need to just have fun and I think since then I haven't been so uptight."

Brooke responded, "Nah you're not so much uptight anymore" Haley laughed.

Haley said, "How about you join me I could use your advice."

Brooke asked, "Advice for what?"

Haley answered, "Well I am spending winter break in New York City and I know you have been there so you ca help me dress to fit in."

Brooke smiled and stated, "Yeah sure thing would hate for you to pick something fugly and then tell someone in New York you know me. My reputation would be ruined "Haley laughed "Let's go friend."

Haley looked at her watch and remarked, "I can't believe the mall is already closing."

Brooke stated, "Well at least you have a new winter wardrobe that will make an impression."

Haley smirked, "So now it will be okay to mention I know you."

Brooke replied, "As long as you don't bring that poncho with you." Haley laughed "I am serious."

Haley responded, "It's not that bad looking."

Brooke said, "You just keeping telling yourself that and others might one day believe you."

Haley gasped, "Gee thanks a lot Brooke."

Brooke spoke, "Thanks for tonight Haley you may not have known it, but I was really dragging earlier and now I am feeling a lot better."

Haley spoke, "Anything for a friend."

Brooke puzzled, "You really consider me a friend?"

Haley nodded and answered, "Of course Brooke, you were my first friend who was a girl you will always have a special place in my heart."

Brooke smiled and said, "Thanks Haley see you at school."
