Buying a new shirt (carter)

[Zhenson Raven]

Zhenson sighed stepping out of his very old looking car, he locked the door, he turned away from his car and walked towards the front of the mall, he had never been here before, and he was only here to buy a new shirt, he laughed at himself for being so stupid, people would definitlly take advatage that he was here, as well he was the emo type, and most of his other types liked to hang around the dormatories of their schools, as the front of the big mall came up to him, it took him a minute to get use to the place, there were already people starring him down.

he chuckled to himself, as he went to open one of the fancy front doors, but there was a handle, as he reached for it, it shot open, he jumped back 'what the hell' he noticed he was drawing attention to himself, blushing he walked into the doorway and was sorrounded by all the small stores, it was weird here, crowded, but it was actually kind of nice, he walked to a map of the mall, locating the store he wanted to go to he walked down the hallways to get there, he could have sworn he was lost, for he hadn't found the sign for it yet, he already had some ice cream in a cup, triple chocolate, he laughed.

as he turned a corner he almost turned around to go back, but the third store down was were he had wanted to go, he walked closer, as he did he noticed the store wasn't as crowded. he stepped into the store and smiled at one of the cashiers, plucking of a hooded shirt he went to the front of the small store, he handed the cashier a 20 dollar bill, shaking his head when the cashier wanted to hand back the change, he turned off and went back out of the store.

it hadn't been that bad thus far, maybe he could spend a little more time, have some more fun you know. he found a seat, a wooden bench, sitting back he took out his ipod, he flushed out all of the sounds of the mall with Owl City - Fireflies, he wished Ambrose could be here with him.

[Carter Mason]

carter hated going to the mall and she hardly ever went unless she really had to. she was a girl and all but shopping wasn't really her thing, nor was being stared at because you just so happened to shop at the mall. mainly because she was emp. what? were emo people not suppose to shop at the mall too? oh well.

either way she found herself here, going to the same store she always did. it was really the only place she ever shopped. the only place where she could find clothes that she actually liked.

after looking around for almost an hour, she found two shirts and a really cute skirt, that fit her perfectly. she smiled as she made her way to the cashier, paid for her stuff and then exited the store.

she glanced around a little and then made her way over to a set of benches just outside the store. walking over, she sat down next to a guy who was listening to his music. the funny thing was the had looked oddly familiar although carter couldn't figure out why.

listening in on his music, which wasn't hard to do, she realized he was listening to fireflies by owlcity. she smiled just slightly and started to sing a long with it, just not too loud.

[Zhenson Raven]

Zhenson sighed, relaxing. The bench was hard, but it was okay, he closed his eyes and listened to the lyrics of the song, wanting to sing it, but he didn't. He suprising loved the song, he had tried to listen to other music by Owl City, but they all stunk. he laughed, opening his eyes again, he noticed there was now someone else sitting at the bench with him, it was a girl, and she was listening in of the music he was listening to, he laughed taking out one of his ear pieces and offering it to her so she could listen to it with him.

"You could have just asked" he said laughing, he was trying to be a little decent around others, had he seen the girl around before? She looked oddly familiar but he hadn't left the school for so long... maybe she was a student, oh well he didn't really pay attention to other people, she llooked out of place here just like Zhenson was out of place here.

He felt odd sitting beside a girl, he didn't really have female friends, his friends were guys, and well he honestly only had three people in his life, his brother Tyson, his best friend, and of course his well yeah Boyfriend Ambrose. He really did have to be more social with other people, although he had all the friends he really needed (well to him) maybe his mother had been right, Zhenson needed a lot more then three people.

[Carter Mason]

Carter was in her own little world, still singing the song, which she didn't sound half bad either. When he took out one of his ear pieces and offered it to her, saying how she could have just asked, she smiled a little, "maybe so but I was trying to not be rude.." she laughed just slightly and then finally took the ear piece from him, "thanks.."

she wasn't sure that anyone had ever been this nice to her. it was kind of nice to be honest about it. slowly, she stuck the ear piece in her ear, listening to the song. she figured now was a good time to tell him who she was, "I'm Carter.." she glanced over at him and smiled a little.

it seemed weird to Carter at the time but she could have sworn she'd heard his laugh before. Gosh, she was losing her mind. She had probably never even seen him before but she knew that wasn't true, she had in fact seen him around before and it had to have been at school. That was the only place she ever went anymore.

"I've seen you before and since I only ever go to one place, it must be where I've seen you at.." she shook her head just slightly, Do you go to Hordcrocks High?"

[Zhenson Raven]

He smiled at her again "I deal with rude people all the time, but it was nice of you to not ask I guess" he said sarcasticly trying to sound half funny if any at all, "And I really don't mind sharing music with other people, no need to thank me" he said grinning again, he really didn't mind sharing his music with others, he loved music, if you wanted to listen to it with him, all you had to do was just say so, just ask.

Zhenson was suprised at how friendly he had been to her already he was often shy to talk to people, he almost laughed again but he didn't, he closed his eyes again and continued to listen to the music, it was soon over and Sum 41 started to play, he laughed looking back over at her, the song was over for now at least.

"I'm sorry I'm Zhenson, it's nice to meet you Carter" he said, grinning again, he took his hand out of his pocket and offered it to her, he sighed, relaxing again into the bench, he didn't like that the bench was hard, couldn't they make it with cusions, then that would be a couch but still, he almost fell over laughing now, but he managed not to laughat all.

He chuckled when she asked if he went to Hordcrocks High, actually yes he did, he'd attended and is still attending the school four years later. he smiled "Yes, I go to Hordcrocks High" so he was right, he probably saw her around in the hallways, he wasn't sure about classes, because he was a senior.

[Carter Mason]

Carter nodded a little, most people these days were rude but that wasn't carter, at least not all of the time. she was way too nice for her own good sometimes. when the song changed, carter sang along with it as well.

when he extended his hand to her, she shook in momentarily before letting it go and dropping her hand back into the pocket of her hoodie. she was normally a little bit more talkative then this but she was so out of place at the mall that she didn't feel like herself.

so that was where she had seen him before. she smiled and nodded a little, "I knew I had seen you before.. I'm a Junior so we don't have any classes together but I've seen you around.. mostly with I'm guessing your boyfriend?" She wasn't really sure but she had seen the two of them together enough to know that something was going on between the two.

"Not that I was stalking you guys or anything.. but every time I saw you, he was with you.. so I just assumed.." she'd seen him around a lot so she knew that he didn't really hang out with many people. she had, in fact, only seen him with one other person besides that one guy... ambrose, she thought was his name.

[Zhenson Raven]

He listened as she asked if the guy he was always with was his boyfried, well actually he was, Ambrose probably didn't know where Zhenson was, he'd probably get mad if he'd found out, he laughed. Although he loved his boyfriend he needed a break once and awhile right?

"Actually Ambrose is my boyfriend" Zhenson said, grinning. he noticed a couple of people looking at them now, he would've laughed again but he didn't, Zhenson wasn't honestly afraid to say he was gay, he was very openly gay, his grin turned into a smile.

Zhenson looked at Carter again "Don't worry everyone kind of knows that me and Ambrose are going out, not much of a secret" Zhenson said when she said that she wasn't stalking him, she just figured they were going out Zhenson and Ambrose were indeed going out.

[Carter Mason]

carter laughed just slightly, "I honestly didn't think it was a secret... I just didn't wanna be wrong." she shrugged her shoulders and glanced around them, she had noticed that most everyone that walked by the two of them, stared them down until they got past them, and most didn't stop staring then either.

Carter was getting slightly annoyed about it, and though it wasn't normally like her to say or do anything to sort of stick up for herself, she looked over at Zhenson, speaking rather loudly so other people around them would hear her, "I guess people forgot how rude staring was. What do you think?" At that, she gave a swift glare to a couple walking on the opposite side of Zhenson who were staring at the two.

They stopped shortly after and continued walking. She shook her head and sighed, rather annoyed, "I dislike stupid people very much.." She looked over at Zhenson again, "Sorry, didn't mean to draw even more attention to us.. but that really bugs me.."

[Zhenson Raven]

"Yeah well I'm proud to be gay" he said smiling, he noticed a group of girls stopped and laughed at what he had said then they walked on, he groaned. He hated people who made a big deal of people who didn't fit in somewhere, Carter and Zhenson had just as much right to be here as did they, was there some sign saying emos were not allowed in the malll? no, actaully there wasn't.

He smiled when she raised her voice and said what she felt the need to say "Yeah it is rather rude" he said raising his voice although it didn't meet as load as Carter had raised hers, he didn't have a loud voice unless he was furious.

Zhenson shook his head when she said sorry "No need for a sorry people need to hear that sometimes" he said, he watched a girl pass by them staring at them, he glared back at her until she felt un-comfortable and continued to walk on.
