Tokyo is defiantly my favorite character! Who's yours?

"Melody Bono Agnes Banks!" Mom yelled busting in my room like the FBI.

"Yes, mother." I look up from my laptop to see my mom glaring me down.

"Get your lazy ass off the bed, your coming shopping with me!" She barks.

"But why?!" I wail, stretching my legs.

"Did you not say that you need new underwear. Well, today is your lucky day." She claps her hands disappearing in the hallway. Probably to shout at Audray.

I slither off my bed and end up on the floor to sulk.

"Can you have your temper tantrum silently!" Kiara yells from her bed. "You woke me up, I was having a dream that I was with this super hot model and you ruined it!"

"Oh, whatever," I mutter. I get up from the floor and pull on some ripped jeans and a white tank top. I look around the room for my oversized jean jacket and my eyes fall onto Kiara.

"Where did you put my jean jacket, you thief!" I pull the covers off her and she trembles like a newborn puppy.

"In my dresser, give me back my cover asshole." She snarls. I throw the cover on her face and take the jacket. And Kiara says I'm always taking her stuff. I don't usually bother with makeup. It takes time so I look in the mirror happy with my appearance. My hair did in two neat plaits and get into the car with mom.

...

We drive to the mall and mom gives me fifty bucks to buy some things. I walk around the mall towards target.

Maybe it's time to get some lace underwear. My self conscious says cheekily. Maybe I should. I lost all my matching sets anyways. I turn around and walk into Victoria secret.

I was going to buy a cute outfit with the leftover money but the underwear was pretty expensive so I added perfume and two boy shorts.

"That'll be $55.99." The lady behind the till says giving me a quick half-smile. I fish into my purse to see if I have a couple of dollar notes but as expected all I had was gum and a button.

"Damn it," I mutter embarrassed. The lady was starting to tap her nails on the counter impatiently.

"Do you have enough or not?" She snarls, a small smile appearing on her face.

"I'm coming." I snap, she rolls her eyes taken aback.

"Here is the remaining $6. Keep the change." A familiar voice says behind me putting the notes on the counter. The lady snatches it off the counter giving me the bag. I look back and see Teeshay.

"Oh no it's ok, I'll just take out something." But Teeshay refuses.

"Its fine baby doll. It's only six dollars."

"But still." I protest. "Now I have to owe you." I really need to get a job. The lady clears her throat.

"Are you taking the bag or not?" Teeshay takes the bag from the counter and walks out. I groaned speed walking behind him. He suddenly stops making me bump into him.

"Teeshay!" I rub my nose. "Why is you back so hard." I hit it and it hurts my hand. I groan in pain. He chuckles at me.

"What do you want it to be soft like a pillow? Plus that's what you get." I look up at him and stick my tongue out. "So where do you want to eat. Are you done or?"

"I'm done. Let's go get a smoothie, I'll promise to pay back later." We walk to the smoothie booth and I sit down on one of the bright colored tables whilst Teeshay ordered.

"So how have you been?" He places the smoothies on the table. He sits down stretches out in his chair, studying my face.

"What since you decided to stop talking to me? Great, life has never been better." I sip on my smoothie.

"I wasn't ignoring you. I was just busy."

"Busy with what? Are you secretly a spy?" I play with the straw swirling it in my smoothie.

"No, football practice. For the next game." I look up and he stared back at me. We stayed like that for a few moments. Nothing to say to each other as if our eyes were talking.

"Ok cool." I break our eye contact and look at the view outside the big window.

"So when is that big date of yours." I hear a hint of disgust in his tone.

"Teeshay, let's not argue now."

"I'm not, just asking." He smiles at me innocently. Damn he has a nice smile.

"As if you care. It's this Saturday." Something flashed in his eyes. But it quickly disappears. Is he angry?

"Bet it will be boring." He crosses his arms, a smug smile on his face.

"No, it won't. Cameron is funny." Is he? "And he's not boring like your personality." I joked.

"Excuse you, my personality is amazing. I'm one of a kind."

"Yup totally." I get a text and I look at my phone to see who it is.

Mom- Hey I saw you with Teeshay a few minutes ago, I'm off to get a manicure so ask him for a ride.

"My mom asked if you can give me a ride." He opens his mouth but I stand up, already took my drink. "I'll take that as a yes."

"So rude." He mutters and I hit his arm playfully. I couldn't lie that I did miss Teeshay's annoying presence all week. We haven't speak once. We would pass the hallways and he would act like he didn't see me. Football practice my ass.

We get into his car and my nose familiarizes his lemon scent. I wonder what shower gel or cream he uses. He turns on the radio and we sing the song as loudly as possible, sounding like screeching cats and let me not get started with the rapping. When we stopped at the traffic light the cars next to us were looking into Teeshay car weirdly.

"Did I ever tell you that I have an amazing gift of singing?" Teeshay says at the end of the song.

"Nope. But such a natural star." I say sarcastically.

"Such a shame the whole world doesn't know. I should quit football and pursue my third dream as a singer." I look at him trying my hardest not to laugh in his face.

"Such a shame. Wait what is your second dream?"

"To become the next president." He announced proudly.

"Ok then. Name twenty-five states." I furrow my eyebrow. He glances over at me.

"I don't need to know all the states to be president." He scoffs.

"Teeshay, I hate to break it out to you but we actually have fifty states." I lean over tap his free hand and he grabs it intertwining our finger together.

"Don't pull away. Just don't." He says softly, his voice was low and deep. He glances over at me. I stay put. He strokes my hand with his thumb softly.

"And I swear there are only 25 states," Teeshay says in the short silence.

"You are so lucky you are pretty," I say. We pull into his driveway and stop. He turns around to face me.

"So where is you know who taking you?" His eyes lower.

"I don't know we haven't decided yet." There was tension in the air. "I should go now."

I take my hand away from his grasp slowly and he watches me intently as I do so. He opens his mouth but then closes it.

"Bye baby doll." I wave and open the door." Wait, your bag." He leans back to get it and stops.

"Don't look inside!" I try snatching it but it's too late. The boy opened it further and nods as if he approved. Weirdo. "Give it here." I take the bag from his hands. His smile only furthers, his brown eyes lit with amusement. He leans forward, grabbing my arm to bring me closer to him.

"I bet they would look so sexy on you." He whispers, his voice low and deep.

"Shame you won't be seeing it on me." I smile.

"Yet." My head whips round to look at him.

"How about never." I watch his face fall and he clutched his chest.

"Why are you so cruel!" He asks dramatically. I laugh and get out of the car, leaning a little on his door frame.

"You should replace that president dreams for acting."

"Maybe I should, being president is actually boring. The country will be underwater by my second day." I shut his door and walk to my house as he drives away. At least he knows.
