So the live chat was on sunday and Me and my friend were extremely lucky to actually get in it. It took them like 30 minutes for them to get in from the flooding. But they answered one of my questions! I asked if they like RockBand and Kevin said yes :). We screamed really loud. It was the best day of my life. Joe was very quiet for Joe. haha lol maybe he was tired or missed an old friend. hint hint Miley. Just kidding! Nick smiled a lot! and Kevin was very talkative but isn't he always. Just to let you Know Kev does come in this story, but later. Don't worry.

I felt him lean over me, waiting for me to do something. I finally turned my body slowly and looked at me. I starred at, a hint of a smile on his face. His hair covered one of his eyes and he was wearing a white tee with a plaid green and black button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up a little above his elbow. With some skinny jeans and black converse.

"I'd say you were following me but a lot of people go to the mall." I mocked in a jokingly way. Wait why am I being funny with him, I shouldn't be. Joe rolled his eyes and did a fake laugh but still sounded gorgeous.

"Good one."

I grinned a little. "Why are you talking to me, I thought you said I should leave you alone." I reminded and I turned around to move up a little in the line. Joe walked to my side. "I don't know, why are talking to me?"

I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms and started looking at the flavors of smoothies, finally deciding to go with strawberry, I think Alex would like that. After I'd thought about Alex I turned around to make sure Alex wasn't looking our way or something. Than She'd see Joe and walk over here. I noticed Joe still by me and thought of something to say.

"Come here often?" I blurted. SHIT! Oh boy I'm doomed. 'Come here often?' really. That's the best I could think of. That's like a pick up line guys use when they are flirting. Okay one. I'm not a guy and Two. I'm not flirting.

Joe just chuckled softly. "I guess."

I bit my lip and moved up when the person in front of me got to the counter. I waited patiently. "Can I have the... Blueberry Erupt." She said. She seemed to nice hair. It was long and blonde. It had white streaks in it. She was tall and lean. Probably Joe's height, which was tall for a girl.

She finally got her smoothie and paid for it then moved out of the way for me to go. She turned around and I saw her eyes catch on Joe. She grinned a little too friendly and lifted her head up high . I looked at Joe who just gave a weak smile and looked away.

I felt myself glare a little, which was weird because she was making her self look like a complete fool to think Joe is actually going to look at her. She finally gave up and walked away.

I moved up to the counter and ordered my smoothie. The girl that was working nodded her head. "Okay."

"This is taking forever" Joe groaned once the girl had turned her back and started working. I nodded. "Tell me about it."

The girl came back to the counter and gave me my smoothie and I got out my money and paid for it. She took the money. "Thank you." She said and looked at Joe. I caught a glimpse of her name tag. It read 'Carson'.

I took the two cups and moved out of the way but ended up knocking into Joe. I felt his hands grip my arms to hold me up. "Oh sorry." I said and blushed. He starred down at me, he didn't have a smile in his face anymore. He was just kind of frowning. I gulped and pulled out of his release after I felt him grip me a little harder.

I started walking away. "Bye." I muttered. I didn't hear him respond so I kept on walking. I came up to Alex and she turned to me. "Hey Finally." She said and grabbed one of the drinks. "Yeah long line."

I noticed the girls she was talking to had left. "So do you wanna leave?" I said taking a quick peak to make sure Joe wasn't anywhere around. He wasn't, but some reason that kind of made me sad. Oh shake it off Miley, just a boy.

"I guess, do you want to see any stores?" She asked. I shrugged. "I don't know, do I?"

She shook her head. "No."

I giggled and we walked towards the doors and I saw it started raining. Wow shocking. I pulled on my hood and opened the door right when a gust of wind blew towards us. Alex shielded her face and put her coat on.

"I can't wait to get away from here, on Saturday!" Alex exclaimed.

"Me too."

We walked to my car and got in as quickly as we could. "Phew!" I said.

I turned on the heater immediately to warm us up. Then started the car and swerved out of the parking lot. "So want me to take you home?"

Alex nodded. "Sure."

She told me directions to the house and I drove to an unfamiliar place of the town. It seemed to have nicer houses. "Where are we?" I asked driving up a hill.

"People call these the 'rich people's houses'."

I did a side grin and turned and went down a street. Alex pointed to a large house with brick walls and big windows. "Here."

I parked the car and Alex thanked me again. "Bye, I'll call you later." I waved and said goodbye and Alex shut the door. She ran towards the door and opened it and walked in. I smiled to myself and got out of the driveway. Alex was such a good friend, She was almost as good as Lily. Maybe even, possibly better. I never thought I'd say that but it's true.

I drove home pushing away any thought of Joe Gray that would pop into his head. I eventually found myself talking to myself about him! My plan of trying to get Joe out of my life, and away from the thoughts was getting harder and harder.

But it was his fault he was the one making me think of him. If he hadn't been everywhere I was this wouldn't be a problem. Also if he weren't so good looking and mysterious it would help. Curse his gorgeous-ness!

I got home around dinner time and found myself craving food badly. I guess my smoothie hadn't helped my hunger.

"Hey Daddy" I said as I took off my coat and walked into the kitchen. He was at the island watching the TV on the counter. "Hey Dude."

I rolled my eyes. "Did you already eat?" I asked but answered my question myself when I saw the leftover macaroni.

"Yeah, just grab yourself a plate."

Grabbing a plate my dad asked about what me and Alex did at the mall. "Uh, we walked around and got some smoothies."

"See anybody you knew?" My dad asked as if he had been secretly spying on me or something. Or he knew what I was thinking.

"Few girls." I shrugged.

He nodded and got up from his chair. "Well, I really like that girl. She's nice."

I grinned. "Me too."

My dad got up and kissed my head and walked into the living room. Me too, me too.

A few days later Saturday had finally come. Alex and Mitchie were picking me up at 11:00 and we would be back around 7:00 p.m. Joe Gray hadn't showed up to any classes Friday or Thursday. I didn't even see him at lunch or at the lockers.

I tried to stop worrying about him not being at school. I always had to jump to conclusions like maybe it was my fault he didn't come or the smoothie had made him sick. But then it would have gotten me sick. So that's not an option.

I even thought that he had died! But I think Nate wouldn't have come to school either, or at least showed some sorrow. But he was just been the same old Nate, flirting with every girl he ran into.

I took and shower and did my hair after. I straightened it again and slipped on a black hat. I decided to go with wearing a red and white t-shirt and a yellow pea coat over it with black skinny jeans. (Full picture, take out spaces ; http: //media .photobucket. com/image /mile 20cyrus/ MileyRayCyrus-Official /MILE. png?o =4)

I did my makeup a bit heavier. I finally finished around 10:00 and decided to eat breakfast. I walked into the kitchen and saw my dad.

"Hey, you look nice." He complimented.

I thanked him and grabbed a bowl of cereal and sat at the island. "Oh right, you're going to Tacoma today." My dad said. I nodded.

"Yep."

"Need any money?"

"No, I'm good." I said remembering the 1,000 dollars my great grandma had given me on my last birthday. I think she's dead now... damn I was looking forward to next year. I shook the thoughts away and kept eating my cereal.

After I finished Alex and Mitchie arrived a couple minutes later. I opened them and grinned when I saw them.

"Hey" they both said at the same time. I greeted them and gave them both short hugs. "Ready to go?" Mitchie asked. I grabbed my bag that was on the table and walked out the door.

"Yeah."

We walked into the driveway and I spotted Alex's car almost at once. My eyes widened at the cute baby blue slug bug that was stopped in front of the house. I ran over to it and looked at Alex with my eyebrows raised.

"What the hell? How did you get this car!" I exclaimed. Alex giggled as Mitchie opened the door to the back seats and got in. "I got it as a gift." She said and got in. I shook my head and got into the car.I

"Who gets a slug bug for a gift?" I said as I buckled my seatbelt. "I guess Alex." Mitchie said and I laughed. "Guess so."

Alex began the car and drove out of the driveway and onto the main rode. I found the button for the radio and pressed it. The music started and I instantly knew the song, Love Song. I started singing and soon Mitchie joined in then Alex. A few moments we were bursting the song at the top of lungs. People walking on the side of the road heard us singing, and the window were closed.

"MARRY ME JULIET YOU'LL NEVER HAVE TO BE ALONE, I LOVE YOU AND THAT'S ALL I REALLY. TALKED TO YOUR DAD YOU'LL PICK OUT A WHITE DRESS. IT'S A LOVE STORY BABY JUST SAY YES! OH OH, OH OH. CAUSE WE WERE BOTH YOUNG WHEN I FIRST SAY YOU!"

The song ended and we laughed. Mitchie almost started crying and my side started hurting. "Oh god..." Alex said after her laughing fit was finished. I shook my head still smiling. Lily and I never used to do that. I'm starting to think Mitchie and Alex are better. As crazy as it is, they were already like sisters to me.

A while later we arrived in Tacoma. It was big! The mall there, was huge. It had so many stores and I hadn't even gone in yet. But just looking at it made me know. We grabbed our bags and walked into the large mall.

The first thing I saw or smelled was the pretzle stand. "Yum Pretzles!" I said and walked over to it. Once again Alex pulled on my arm.

"Shop first, then eat, then shop again." She let go of me and I sighed and fixed my shirt. We walked on and I spotted Wet Seal. I walked over to the store and they followed. Teens of every age walked to and fro in the store.

"This Wet Seal is way better than the one I used to have." I announced as I looked at the many colors of belts and shirts. Shoes and hats. Pants and accessories. I quickly saw a cute tight red shirt with straps. I grabbed it and kept on looking around. Alex was now looking at the jeans and Mitchie was close behind me eying the shirts.

I also found some jeans and a necklace. All of us were ready to pay around the same time so we got in line and paid for it. It costed a little more than 30 dollars, must be a sale.

After that we went into the Hollister, Abercrombie and Fitch, American Eagle, Anchor Blue, Aeropostale, then finally stopped and ate.

We sat down at a chinese restaurant, wore out and tired from the shopping.

"Jeez, we can shop!" Mitchie said and pushed her bangs out of her face. I nodded and raised my eyebrows. Alex took a long drink of her water than let out a big breath.

"Well, I've spent all my money." Alex said. I nodded "Me too."

"Me three."
