Readers: It's UP! Yes!

Chapter 4- Drive

As I drove further and further, I started feeling…

Stupid.

"Great, I had a great… Well semi-great life." I told myself. "I had Granny, Jake, Elvis. Daphne may be a pill but really, it's her bubbly nature. But at the table… Total Sabrina."

I pulled into the mall. No one was really here. I looked down at myself.

Crap.

I look like crap.

I opened the glove department and shuffled around.

Forgetful Dust, back-up fairy wand…

Aha!

Hairbrush. I yanked the brush through my hair till it was smooth.

I pulled off the 2 red hair ties I always keep around my wrist and pulled my hair into 2 loose pigtails.

I looked down at my clothes, they aren't that bad, I mean I could be in worse. I pulled the keys out of the car and stuck them in my pocket, right where my wallet was

. Yep, I'm going to do me some shopping!

I walked into JCPennies, and walked straight to the clothes. I grabbed a black top with a red ribbon around the middle, I also pulled of some dark blue skinny jeans. I walked to the changing area and tried them on. Than I paid for them.

The lady at the check-out kept giving my the weirdest looks like, Where the heck was this girl and where did she get the cash. And are thoses... Pj pants? WTF!

I took the bag and walked out. I pretty much had to contain myself from running to the nearest restroom. I got into a stall and changed into the clothes, I stuffed the others in the bag and walked out.

I felt and looked better, I had cash to burn and I was in the mall.

Hmmmm... What am I going to do? DUH Shop!

I walked to the nearest Claries and I bought a red headband, I put it on and contiued.

LATER

As the day continued, I went to American Eagle, Payless, Macey's, Areopostal, and a few other stores. I took a break at the food court, the mall was getting full and I wasn't planning going to that tense home anytime soon.

As I sat down at a empty table, a water bottle in hand and bags. I sat down and scanned the room.

Idiot, annoying kid, fairy, more idiots, cute boy, old lady... Cute boy!

I looked at my bottle, but through the corner of my eye I saw him staring, he was with a big group, a couple of girls, (I'm guessing cheerleaders, or the Populars) and a couple of boys.

One thing for sure- He's NORMAL!

No fairy, Everafter and probably Forgetful Dust has barely touched him.

No dragons, talking animals, and doesn't know a thing.

Perfect!

As I contiued to look he made a move, he started walking towards me.

Do you believe in 'Love At First Sight'? I DO!

He had earthy brown hair, deep hazel eyes and I smile that dazled.

"Hey,"He said as he approached.

Should I act shy. Should I let my normal show?

The timid me?

HECK NO!

"Hey," I said, suprising myself. I sounded calm and cool.

"So, what brings you to the plain, boring town of Ferry Port?" He asked.

"Nothing really. But you do got the "Boring and Plain' part down."

"Yeah, hate this place. Oh by the way, my name is Nick. Yours?"

"Red."

"Like the color?" Nick asked.

"Yeah, and like that little kid story. YOu know, 'Little Red Riding Hood." What the heck and I doing! I just pretty much told this random stranger who I am!

"Cool, I always liked that one, except for the end." Now that intested me.

"Why? I mean the girl lives, the wolf dies. What's not to like?" I asked.

"Well, like the girl gets screwed. I mean like the others, 'And she marriged a prince. Happily Ever After' Blah blah blah. It just seems she got a stupid ending. Yeah sure the grandma lives and the wolf dies, but really?"

That is exactly how I feel!

"Red!"

"Nick!"

2 female voices yelled. We both let out a groan under our breath. One of the girls he was with was waving him over. And mine was...

Sabrina.

Nick pulleout a peice of paper and a pen. He scribbled down a number and handed it to me.

"Sorry about that. Got to go. But I hope to see you sometime." He winked at my a walked off.

"Who's the cutie?" Sabrina asked, getting to my table. And she was talking to me as if nothing wver happened.

"None of your buisness Grimm." I growled the word 'Grimm' pissed. Something was happening to me. This was not my usual behavior. Sabrina looked totally shocked.

"When have you become a Grimm hater? We took you in." Sabrina said, giving me a death glare that would have scared me before. I would have looked at the ground, silent.

Not today.

I looked stright into her eyes, glaring myself. "Since this morning. I gave time and money to you people this moring. Tried to do someting nice, and well..." Words wouldn't come to me.

"And what? Has Red finally acting like a big girl?" Sabrina sneered.

"No, she is pissed. And..." I stood up and grabbed my bags and water. "And you really don't want to see me when I pissed, Grimm." I said. It sounded haunting.

And with that I walked past. I walked out of the mall and to the rust bucket. I unlocked the door and threw the bags into the back seat. Never again.

Never again will I trust those Grimms as long as I live.

Yep and that's how the story goes. COMMENT!
