Chapter 4: Here It Goes

I walked the streets to taxi I had called. Stepping in, I simply said, "Mall on 21st street." I needed something new to wear for an interview with a designer tomorrow, and some pop artists birthday party I had been invited to. I was pretty sure Angela was the only other going in our group – the girl hated Jessica and Lauren for various reasons involving ecstasy and a swimming pool – so she would be meeting me by the fountain.

I threw a twenty at the driver and stepped out, walking to the front door of the large Shopping Mall.

I walked through the door to the built-in Starbucks. I sipped my coffee and walked off to the fountain. Sitting on the small bench, I stared at the plastic ferns in the very center.

"Hey," Angela said, making me jump and almost fall into the water fountain. She laughed and I blushed again. Forks must have brought out the old me. I thought to myself.

"Hey, okay, so which store are we going to?"

"Let's see if Dillard's has anything," she said and we walked off.

I searched through racks and racks until I finally found something for the party.

It was a firecracker red tight-fitting knee high strapless dress. Not soon after Angela ran up to me with a brown cloth skirt with a sewn-on belt that had a metal heart hooked into the belt and a cable knit shirt-sweater with a flapped neck that stopped an inch below the waste.

She wasn't going to see the designer, so I was the only one who still had to find something else. We walked out of the store and into American Eagle were I got jeans and a yellow tank top. We had already had shoes to match, so we went to the last stop on our list.

Tiffanies. (A/N:LMAO)

We laughed and talked casually as we walked there, I only stumbled slightly in the tall heels I had to wear to not be short-looking around Angela. I pushed the glass door open and light elevator music played with the ding of a customer bell.

The soft blue carpets were easy to walk through with my shoes, surprisingly. The lady at the counter smiled kindly with one of the stores' necklaces around her neck, and a black silk dress that went to the knees. Her curly blond hair framed her face perfectly and went to just bellow her bust.

I smiled at her and saw the bit of envy in her eyes. But who wouldn't envy us? We had the perfect lives.

Angela wandered over to the earings while I starred at the necklaces through the plate glass counters. I was about to say something when the door opened, making me turn.

My mouth dropped open at the girl who stood, struck in awe. I immediately knew who it was.

She had gone to Forks High.

Her tiny mouth stretched into a grin and her black spiky hair swayed slightly as she walked over to me.

"Hey, Alice," I said, gulping.
