"Oh my god I did not know that I would be shopping with a mafia man" Molly teased as she met AJ down in the hotel lobby. He was dressed in a black leather jacket, black knit turtleneck and black pants. His hair was covered by a black hat and he had taken all his jewelry off.
"I have to go undercover" AJ winked and hailed a cab.

"Baby that was the most amazing surprise anyone has ever given me" Skylar was on the phone with Kevin talking about the lamaze class surprise.
"Well I knew how much it killed me to be away and missing all of the milestones in the pregnancy so I knew that you had to be upset as well. From now on when you go to doctors appointments I will be on the phone while you are examined, I will be live at every lamaze class and when my mom throws you a baby shower I promise I will figure someway to be there as well. I love you Skylar and I don't want to miss another second of this pregnancy"

" AJ that hat is so weird, so outrageous.....SO YOU" Molly laughed as AJ modeled his find.
"Wrap it up, it's sold" AJ paid the cashier and the two of them walked out of the store.
"I think we should go to Urban Planet, there is bound to be something there for you" Molly took AJ's hand and walked across the packed mall.
They walked into a store with urban hip hop blaring from the speakers and the walls painted in loud colours. Molly picked up a very short, see through top and looked at AJ "um Bone I don't think this place is for me...everything is a little too short and skimpy for my body" Molly frowned. She hated shopping sometimes, it reminded her that even though she was not as overweight as she was in high school, she still carried extra pounds and her hips were too big to wear the hip things that were in style.
"Nonsense, with those curves, you will fill these things out nicely, now move your ass woman we have a store to ravage" AJ winked and started to search.
~~**~~
"Umm, Alex...ummm I can't come out of the dressing room, this is illegal" Molly looked at herself in the mirror and grimaced.
"Come on it cannot be that bad" AJ was looking through a rack of vintage clothes and was trying to coax Molly to come out and model his clothing creation.
"Alright but if you laugh I will make you do the Roseanne show" Molly laughed. She took a deep breath and walked out of the dressing room.
"HOLY FUCK!!! I mean holy shit...ummm Molly I never knew that your girls were so perky...I mean...aw shit those are some hooters" AJ was shocked at the woman who stood in front of him. Usually she was dressed in jeans and sweaters when they were travelling and then when they were at the venue for a show she wore skirts or pants and blazers. She hid her shape well and AJ could not believe how much of a shape she really had. "Girl why would you hide that body...that is a WOMAN's body"
Molly blushed as she adjusted the criss cross sweater that tied around her waist. The low cut front accentuated her large chest and the close fit of the sweater showed off her curves. The peg leg pants that AJ had chosen for her were tailored and gave her legs the illusion of looking long and lean, when in reality they were short and chunky. "I will knock everyone out with these, they are like torpedos" Molly pointed to her chest.
"The only one you are going to knock out is Howie and he will enjoy that.....Nick will probably pop a chubby but the poor kid can't help that." AJ grinned "Molly you look fabulous..really I say that is the outfit.....now all we have to get you are shoes and accesories and our shopping is done"
Molly walked back into the dressing room and started to undress. She passed the clothes over the door to AJ and proceeded to slip on her worn jeans.
She saw AJ standing at the cash and she walked over and handed him her credit card. "Uh uh, put that away, this is my welcome gift"
"Welcome gift?"
"Welcome to the world of hootchies and playahs baby" AJ winked as he took the bags from the cashier.
Molly leaned over and kissed AJ's cheek "Thank you for making me feel good about myself.....it has been a long time"
AJ smiled and took her hand.

"AJ I am going to fall over if I try to walk in these things" Molly was holding onto the wall as she stood up on thick platform boots that AJ had insisted she try on.
"Girl trust me...you need the height and they will go perfect with the outfit, besides if you fall Howie will be glad to break your fall" AJ winked and tied up the shoes that he had picked out. "Ya like?"
"Me like" Molly sat down and yanked off the shoes and slipped her aching feet into her comfortable docs. "I don't know how girls do it, my feet are aching and I only wore these for like 5 minutes"
"Fashion is a bitch and then it goes out of style, next year it will probably be stylish to wear ballet slippers..."
"I can't picture you in pink slippers, maybe black but not pink" Molly grinned and walked to the counter.
~~**~~
"Well I have managed to let you talk me into a shirt that turns my girls into lethal weapons, shoes that are going to probably cause me to break my ankles and lipstick that makes me look like a porno star" Molly and AJ were making the final rounds of the mall, both laden down with bags and packages.
"Shit you found out my plan! Howie, Nick and I were going to get you drunk and then make a porno film, One Babe and 3 Studs"
"More like Goldilocks and the 3 PIGS" Molly muttered.
Molly spotted a Baby Gap and thought of Skylar. "Alex I have to go in there, I want to send Skylar some stuff, think you can occupy yourself?"
"That was the wrong question to ask me...meet you back here in 30 minutes" AJ kissed her cheek and took off.
~~**~~
"Where is he?" Molly was sitting on the bench admiring the clothes she had bought Skylar and the baby and waiting for AJ.
"That is adorable, a little too preppy for my taste but perfect for the yuppies themselves" AJ sat down beside Molly.
"Hey you...so what mischief did you get into?"
"I was good...now come one, we should get back" AJ and Molly walked back to the mall entrance and hailed a cab.
~~**~~
Molly and AJ were sitting in AJ's room looking at their purchases when Howie and Brian walked in. "Holy shit, you guys are going to have to keep touring just to support your shopping habits." Howie looked at the bags that covered AJ's bed.
"I never thought I would say this but I think I have found someone who loves to shop as much as I do...Molly smelled every sale in that mall" AJ replied.
"Uh oh, AJ went to the IT store...okay so what nasty things did you buy?" Howie groaned.
"Well I bought some stuff to get back at Nick for all the shit he has pulled on me. I bought myself a keychain" AJ held up a keychain that said I AM SO GOOD I AM JEALOUS OF MYSELF
"I bought Kim Ann a tshirt, she is going to shit when she gets it" AJ held up the shirt and everyone cracked up, it said I AM SO GOOD I SCREAM OUT MY OWN NAME DURING SEX...
"Oh my god it is perfect for her" Howie wiped the tears of laughter from his eyes.
"I got you this" AJ handed Howie a package and laughed when he blushed.
"BONE" Howie quickly hid the package once he read it. AJ had bought him a Spanish Tickler in honor of his spanish heritage.
AJ and Molly were rolling on the floor when it came time to give Brian his gift. "I would not laugh if I were you..." AJ handed him a baseball cap and tried to hold his laughter as Brian read what was embroidered on it.
"Leighanne is going to die..oh my god this is hilarious Bone" Brian put on the cap and bent his head so that the rest could read it.."Wanna frick my frack?"
"I have stuff for everyone else but I will wait and give it to them...oh I forgot Molly.." AJ handed her a wrapped box.."You cannot open this until you are ready to go out tonight..and I expect you to wear it" AJ instructed Molly.
"Why do I have a feeling I am going to die when I see this?"
"Cause it is from AJ that's why.." Howie and Brian left to go get ready, leaving AJ and Molly in the room.
"Well I should go and get ready...see you at 10?" Molly asked.
"You bet..I will see you and your girls at 10" AJ winked and hugged Molly.."have I told you that you are the best tour manager?"
"Not in so many words..but I am still not giving you your own bus..now
go
get ready." Molly picked up her packages and walked out of AJ's room.
