>I let out a huge groan. I hate having to be not only forced to leave my room but forced to hang out with Melissa. Don't get me wrong we're friends but raptor christ mom can't you at least let me pick?
>I glance over to her as we sit in the mall food court. She looks at me genuinely happy. God.
>"You having fun?" I bite back the sarcasm threatening to escape me.
>"It's alright I guess." I try to not be a horrid sport about this.
>"Anywhere else you'd like to go?"
>I sigh and think. We've already been by Hot Ptopic and Gamspot. Guess we can go do something she wants. I don't want to be here but at least she's getting something out of this. I hope.
>"You pick." I shrug at her.
>"Well I do need a new bag. My old one's strap snapped." Purse shopping it is.
>We stand and drag our trash to the cans, dumping trays and setting the empty ones back on top. A quick escalator ride up stars and we find a few shops to try. I tag along as Melissa eyes a few, checking their price and make.
>"You really don't carry a purse?" Melissa calls back to me as she peruses.
>"I have pockets." I shrug.
>Melissa merely sighs and keeps looking as I wander about as well. Wow these things are gaudy and expensive. Over a thousand for this thing.
>Melissa comes back.
>"Alright, how's this?" It's simple a small light tan almost matching her own tone and decently sized. Functional and not hideous. Two thumbs WAY up.
>"Great!" Melissa looks over it one last time.
>We quickly head to the front as she pays. Not horrendously expensive either.
>We step out and Melissa turns to me to speak.
>"Look I know you hate this but thanks. This was great." I blink at her a few times. I mean I'm not a big fan but hate's a big word."
>"Woah now, hey. Let's not go that far. I don't really enjoy shopping sure but I can hang with you. This isn't some sort of torture for me."
>Melissa smiles gently.
>"Really?"

>"What you think I don't like hanging out with you? We're still friends." I fold my arms at her. Almost insulted.
>"I... thought maybe we weren't. You don't ever start the process to hang out and always turn down trips I suggest." I clam up a bit. She's not wrong.
>"Ah shit, sorry. You know how I am. Uh how about we plan something now. For next time?" Melissa visibly perks up.
>"You pick." She insists.
>My first pick would be a LAN party but like hell that's happening. I think. Oh wait maybe that's a thing we could do.
>"You wanna go like, watch some live music or something? Local bands play at that little theater nearby." A middle ground.
>"That's an amazing idea! Any idea when?" I internally check my schedule. Free until the end of time.
>"Anytime is fine for me. This weekend good for you?" A nod and I guess we're doing this. I pull my phone out to see who's playing. Lots of very fast, angry and experimental music. I look forward to it.
