Weeks passed, i was now completely grounded, on lockdown, with only community service at Troy to keep me out. My brother had started his own buisness selling art at Venice Beach, and i needed money. So i tried my own art, and sent out a bulliten on myspace asking if anyone wanted to sell their art along with mine. The girl who had bought my weed responded, she had amazing art and was down with selling it. For whatever the reason, im gonna name this girl Bubbles. So Bubbles was the only one to respond, and we talked about it for a while, i asked her one day if she wanted to go to Venice Beach to check it out. But she couldnt reply in time, so we exchanged phone numbers and began texting each other everyday all day. We learned that we both had a crush on each other and decided to hang out together at the mall, well really cause i had an interview and i wanted to hang out with someone that day. My dad was under the impression that i was working at Troy that day, and would be dropped off later for the interview, but i didnt work that day, instead i hanged at a friends until Bubbles texted me telling me she was ready to go to the mall. I left my friends house and waited at a bus stop, i was sorta scared, i thought my dad could drive by and see me. But he didnt and after 2 minutes waiting in the blistering sun, the bus arrived, and i got on board. Me and this old white lady were the only ones on, but after two blocks she got off nad i was the only one. I sat back and slipped on my headphones, i listened to Bruises by Chairlift, and stared out the window. Buses are relaxing to me, and i was sure to be on this one, there just relaxing there, i felt like this was gonna be a good good day. I arrived at the mall within a few minutes and quickly texted Bubbles that i had arrived. My bladder didnt feel well and so my first stop was the restroom, i rushed through the large cafeteria section(i guess thats what ill call it) and entered the mens restroom, it was nice. Probably the cleanest restroom ever, even the sink where i washed my hands was sparkling. After which i got a message from Bubbles saying that she was on her way, and where we should meet up at. I looked around and saw Sears as the closest place, and she agreed. She told me she would be there in ten minutes, and so i looked around, i didnt see anything special, so i went upstair and decided to wait there, i leaned myself against a pillar and waited. I happened to look to my right to see Bubbles entering the store, looking nervously around, she pulled out her phone and began to text me. I got off the pillar and walked up to her, my phone vibrated in my hand as i reached her, i said 'hey', and she smiled and said 'hey' back. Our day went by and we walked around a few stores, though we took a long time in each. One store was the pet store, where i learned that Bubbles loves animals, something that really made me happy, cause i have longed for a pet, only to be dissapointed, one day i will have a dog or a cat or both. She seemed at peace with the animals, but at the same timed she wanted to rescue them, i could see it in her eyes. Hunger over came Bubbles and i found myself once again in the "cafateria," though this time i was sitting across from a beautiful girl who was eating a delicious pizza and scrumptious tomato and cucumber salad. I had all but forgot about time, until my phone vibrated, it was my alarm, and i was late for my interview at Hollisters, i asked Bubbles if she would be alright, i would have stayed, in fact, i wanted to stay i didnt care for the interview anymore, but she told me to hurry up and go, and that once she was done she would meet me over there. So i hurridly ran and miraculously was still on time. The manager guy lined everyone applying against a wall and asked us questions. I couldnt help myself but every few seconds i would look towards the direction of the cafeteria, hoping Bubbles would be right there waiting, i kept losing my thoughts and wasnt even paying attention anymore, i stopped hearing the questions and found myself staring in the same direction over and over again. The interview dragged onwards, i was so happy when it was over and almost ran away, i turned the corner and there was Bubbles walking towards me, i rushed over to her and just wanted to get away. She reminded me then that we were gonna get candy, so we went downstairs and entered the candy shop, Bubbles saw some yummy candy(i cant remember what it was, i think it was something stretchy) and decided to self sample some. She tried to be all sneaky, and Frankly i thought no one saw her, but one of the employees did see her and rudely repeated the 'No Self Sampling' rule. We laughed about it and she found her deliciousness, sugar bananas. She filled three quaters of the bag up and bought it, i only grabbed a 'De La Rosa' and we left. Our next stop was Metro park, but nothing significant happened there. After which we went to a Women's clothing store, it was really fun, we looked at all the dresses and stuff, and Bubbles grabbed a one sleeve dress and wanted to try it on, but she didnt realize it was one sleeve, so she didnt like it. I still thought she looked gorgeous in it. We noticed also that more than half the dresses and clothes in the store had ruffles, guess its the style, though i say it means your confused about life if your wearing it, but thats my opinion. Hmmm, Victoria Secret was actually funny, and no Bubbles didnt try any bras on, and no we didnt do anything in the changing rooms. You know though, we had talked about how it is easy to do certain stuff in the dressing rooms, yet when the day came im glad it never crossed my mind. Well anywho, my mom called me and she was on her way to pick me up, so we walked to the Nordstrom/JCPenny parking lot, we crossed from Nordstrom to JCPenny, was it hot outside. As soon as we got inside JCPenny we sat down on the floor next to each other. I looked at her and i have never been so happy. She stared out the door looking for any passing cars, to see if it was my mom, but i was looking at her, wondering how did i not see such a beauty before. I slowly reached my hand towards hers, i wanted to hold her hand, and just as my hand was about to embrace hers, my phone went off. My mom was in the store, in fact she was around the corner and couldnt see us, so we got up and walked towards her, i tried to introduce Bubbles to her, but Bubbles was quicker and introduced herself. The day was at its end, and i had to leave the one i now adored, my mom quickly got in her car, and me and Bubbles said our goodbyes, and then we hugged. It seemed so comforting and i could just stay there forever, it was beyond my expectations and i was happy. The hug lasted a while it seemed, but finally it ended and Bubbles told me to hurry up cause my mom was waiting. I turned around and started walking back, but instinct told me to turn around, and so i did, and at the same moment she turned and we gave each other a last minute smile. My head began racing, should i run after her, should i leave, should i get my mom to stay. I chose to get my mom to stay, and so as soon as i got in the car i begged and pleaded for my mom to stay for at least a half an hour, but my mom didnt want to, she was too tired, and had to cook. Immediatly she drove home, and as we passed the JCPenny windows i stared out hoping for a glimpse of Bubbles, yet i saw nothing. That night we texted each other, and that night she told me she was going back with her ex.
