Shop till you drop!


“Wow...” Cassidy exclaimed excitedly at the huge shopping mall ahead of them.
“Ok guys lets go..” Kevin said laughing as the guys put on their baseball hats and sunglasses.
Becca looked at Brian and burst out laughing.
“What?!” Brian asked.
“You look like an Austrian Bankrobber!” (We’re in Europe writing this and we’ve just seen these guys who look like robbers or conmen or something suspicious!) Becca teased.
“No I don’t!! We just don’t wanna get mobbed…” Brian said in a hushed voice as everyone piled out of the car.

“Oh what was that?!?!? BRIAN LITTRELL doesn’t wanna get mobbed!! Cassidy said loudly attempting to draw attention to the 5 of them. AJ grabbed Cassidy and held his hand over her mouth. Becca was killing herself laughing as Kev, Brian and AJ looked around making sure that no one had recognized them.

“You’re are lucky Cassidy…” AJ laughed as he released Cassidy.
“Yeah, yeah, come on we’ve got some serious shopping to do ya big hearthrobs…” Cassidy said and they began to walk towards he massive shopping complex.
Rebecca and Brian walked ahead, holding hands and whispering sweet nothings to each other. Cassidy, Kev and AJ proceeded to make kissy noises to annoy them.
Brian turned around to the three following them.
“Just cause You three can’t get a DATE!” He laughed. Kev, AJ and Cassidy’s mouth’s dropped open.

“That was harsh Bri..” AJ said dramatically clutching his chest. Kev and Cassidy defended themselves.
“Nuhuh! Not even Bri! We’re playin’ the field…we’re cool!!”

Becca and Bri looked at each other and burst out laughing.

“Yeah whatever guys..” They laughed and walked into Gucci menswear leaving the three behind.

“I can’t believe they ditched us…” Cassidy laughed.
“I say we ditch THEM and go and get us some funky outfits!” AJ suggested.
“I’m up for that...” Cassidy smiled and the three continued to walk into Armani.

“Ok, go try it on!” Becca urged Brian. Brian took the navy blue pants and jacket and a white dress shirt into one of the dressing rooms.
“Do you have it on yet?” Becca asked from outside the dressing room.
“I don’t wanna come out..” A tiny whine came from inside the dressing room.
“Well I’m coming in then…”
“Becca..” Brian started but was cut off as Rebecca walked in and shut the door firmly behind her.

Those suits are hot guys….you two scrub up pretty good!” Cassidy grinned as Kevin and AJ paid for the two suits.
“Thanks….maybe now I can get a girlfriend..” AJ exclaimed.

Cassidy laughed at this. “Well how about we go look for something or you to wear …..” Kevin grinned.
“Well…..I did see something in that shop over there..” Cassidy said matter of factly.
“Well lets go Cinderella, we got to get you ready for the ball!” AJ laughed as the three friends linked arms and headed out of the shop like school girls.

“Brian that looks so good!” Becca’s mouth dropped open when she entered the dressing room and saw Brian standing in front of the mirror wearing the navy suit pants and jacket with a crisp white linen shirt underneath, completing the simple but drop dead gorgeous outfit. (BN: think Brad Pit in “Meet Joe Black”!!! Mmmm yummy!)

“Are you sure my shoulders don’t look weird?? And my butt looks kinda padded…” Brian babbled insecurely. (CN: Thanks for the line Leeny!!)
Becca smiled at his cute selfconciousness.
“Brian you look gorgeous…” She said running her finger over his top button.

Brian smiled, “Not as gorgeous as you!” Rebecca blushed and pulled him closer to herself, kissing him sweetly. When they broke apart Becca once again circled her index finger over his top button, this time undoing it so that it sat nicely showing off a little bit of skin.

“That’s better…” Rebecca said in a half whisper.
“You just wanna check out my manly chest..” Brian laughed tensing his muscles dramatically. Becca burst out laughing.

“Is this dress gorgeous or is it gorgeous??” Cassidy exclaimed lifting the baby blue, strapless, satin gown that went to the floor. The top of the dress was lined with crystal diamontes.
“That’s really nice..” Kevin eyed the dress, he could definitely see Cassidy in it.
“Nice! It’s hot girl! Go try it on…FASHION PARADE!!” AJ bundled Cassidy and the dress into the nearest change room.
“You hungry?” Brian asked Becca as he paid for the outfit and they headed out of the store.
“Yeah a little, you? Oh hang on…your always hungry!”
“Oh not even! Fine we won’t get anything to eat….ok let’s go in here..” Brian said heading for a shoe store. Becca grabbed his hand and pulled him back.

“Aww but I’m kinda hungry..” Becca whined.
“I know I’m starving let’s go!” Brian laughed.

“Damn girl!” AJ exclaimed as Cassidy stepped out of the dressing room. Cassidy smiled and did a little turn, letting the dress flow nicely around her.
“You look stunning…” Kevin smiled.
“Thanks…” Cassidy blushed.

“Nick’s gonna flip..” AJ mumbled as he watched Cassidy walk back into the dressing room. She was beautiful naturally, but she looked amazing in that dress.
“What was that AJ?” Kevin asked.
“Uhhh…nothing,” AJ for some reason decided not to tell Kevin about a) Nick’s crush on Cassidy or b) the fact that Nick thought that Kevin and Cassidy were dating.

“You guys hungry? Cause I can hear McDonalds calling my name!” AJ said grinning.
“Yeah! I’ll just pay for this dress ok?” Cassidy called from inside the dressing room.

“You sure you don’t want us to help you pay for it Cass?” Kevin asked.
“No way! This is my dress and I’m blowing my credit card on it!”
“Cassidy…” AJ started.
“What! Either you let me do this myself or I’m not going and I’ll never talk to you again….” Cassidy said indignantly walking out of the dressing room and over to the register.

“Fine…let us pay for lunch then,” AJ relented.
“Deal!!” Cassidy smiled and handed her credit card over the counter.

“So McDonalds sound good?” Brian asked as they walked hand in hand towards the food court of the mall.
“Fine by me..” Becca answered, looking around the windows as they strolled by.
“Anyway I still need to find a …..” Becca’s eyes widened and her jaw dropped open as she looked in the window of the dress store on her left.

“What?” Brian looked around confused.
“Dress…….” Becca breathed.
“Huh?” Brian asked confused but Rebecca was already in the store and holding a dress. Once Brian realised what was happening he started laughing his ass off. He walked into the store and looked at Becca who was holding a dress against herself and posing in the mirror.

“You like that dress I take it?” Brian laughed.
“Are you serious!? It’s perfect!!” Becca admired the pretty knee length, pink, chiffon dress. Brian had to admit it was very pretty.
“Try it on..” He offered.
“Ok!” Becca grinned like a kid in a lollie shop and raced to the dressing room and began changing.

“That necklace is gorgeous!” Cassidy exclaimed, looking in the jeweller’s window.
“Oo! I like those hoop earings!” AJ pointed at a pair of gold earrings.
Cassidy laughed. “Well that baby will have to wait for another day….come on, Macca’s is just up there!”
“It’s Micky-D’s! What’s this “maccas” Cass?!” AJ teased.
“Shutup! Its what we call it in Australia! And you can’t tease me, I’m wasn’t the one who was just looking at 5 inch hoop earrings!” Cassidy laughed.

“You guys go on ahead…..I’m just going to duck in there and get some more Dolce and Gabana.” Kevin said pointing to a large department store.
“Ooooo….D&G huh?” Cassidy was impressed.
“Yeah…a fan sent me some, and I really like it!” Kevin smiled.
“Ok cool…we’ll meet you there then..” AJ said, and he and Cassidy headed off in the direction of McDonalds.
Kevin watched the two walk off and secretly slipped back into the Jewellery store to buy Cassidy the necklace she had been looking at. He felt incredibly guilty about last night and for letting her blow her credit card on her dress for the party.

“Here hand out the dress and I’ll take it up to the counter while you get dressed…there’s a queue…” Brian offered from outside the dressing room.
“Ok..I’ll be out in a second, here’s my credit card..” Becca passed her dress and her card over the top of the dressing room door.
“Ok…” Brian accepted and went over to the empty counter, he had lied about the queue, and pulled out his own credit card and quickly paid it to his account.
Rebecca came out and saw him putting a gold card back in his wallet and the dress being wrapped in tissue paper and placed in a box. Becca gasped.
“BRIAN!!” She hissed.
“What did you do that for…” She said quite annoyed as they walked out of the store.
“Because I wanted to…” Brian said almost hurt. They were now standing in a quiet corner away from the store.
“And why would you want to do that?” Becca spat back.
“…because I love you…” Brian said quietly, his crystal blue eyes piercing into Becca’s.
“Oh my god Brian….” Becca breathed.
“Its ok if you don’t feel the same…I just wanted to let you know how I love having you near me, and how you make me smile when I think of you or when I hear your voice..I know it’s only been a little while but…” Brian shifted uncomfortably.
“Brian….” Becca brought his body close to her and kissed his lips softly. He pulled away first and looked at her his eyes pleading for an answer. She continued.
“I love you too..” Becca smiled as Brian kissed her. After a little while she pulled away.
“Bri this isn’t the place…come on lets go get some lunch.” Brian walked into McDonalds holding Rebecca around the waist.
“Hey there’s Bec and Brian….” Cassidy said motioning for Becca and Brian to join them.

“Hi you three! Cassidy I got the sweetest dress!” Becca exclaimed.
“Me too!! It’s so gorgeous…” Cassidy beamed.
AJ, Kevin and Brian all laughed at Rebecca and Cassidy.
“What?!” Becca asked innocently.
“Nothing…” Brian said and kissed her sweetly on the lips.
“Here we go..” AJ teased.
Becca shoved AJ playfully . “So what did you buy AJ?” Becca asked.
“This hot suit!” AJ said in a funny voice.
“Ooo…” Brian mocked.
Cassidy giggled. She’d had the best day, but her thoughts still kept turning to Nick.
