“I’d really like to go to Barnes and Noble to see if they have some of those new fantasy novels I’ve been looking forwards to.” Rachael replied. Emily gave her a look. “And if they do, you are going to ask me to buy them for you because you forgot to bring your money, didn’t you?” She said with a sigh.
A sheepish smile crept across Rachael’s face. “Pleeease?” She asked. Emily sighed again but smiled despite herself. “Alright, let’s do it.” She said, much to Rachael’s excitement.
The mall’s Barnes and Noble store was two floors up, so Rachael and Emily climbed aboard the escalator and headed on up, Rachael tightly clutching her camera. After all, if something were to make her drop it, it would surely shatter from this height. Nevertheless, the girls reached the top floor and Barnes and Noble without incident.
As they walked in the doors, Rachael decided to take a few more photos. After all, the store had a different kind of lighting than the other one she’d been in, and she only needed a couple to practice in these particular conditions, so it wouldn’t be a big deal....right?
Liam was browsing through the magazines at the front of the store, looking for a fantasy football magazine. After all, the online season was starting back up pretty soon, and he had to be ready.

Leah smiled as she found the fashion magazine she was looking for. “Ten skimpy outfits that will land you the guy of your dreams in no time? Yes please!” She purred as she read the first article inside the front cover. After smoothing down her white skirt and adjusting the shoulder of her hot pink top, Leah strutted off towards the front desk to make her purchase. Brandon was coming over to her house later tonight and she had to be ready.
Zach groaned as he poured through the textbooks. Whoever invented the concept of finals was just a sadist who wanted students to suffer, he thought unhappily. After four hours of studying last night and three more today, he was still no closer to understanding this stuff than he was last night. He groaned again and put his head in his hands.
FLASH
Zoe happily tapped away on her phone, texting her roommate about this really hot guy she’d met at the bar last night. The busty brunette’s tight blue dress was giving every guy in the store a bit of a show as it strained to contain her....assets. Zoe didn’t mind though— she’d always had a bit of an exhibitionist streak, which came in handy working at a strip club like she did. Sipping on the drink she’d gotten at the store’s Starbucks, Zoe waited for her guy to call.
Rachael saw some other people she wanted to take pictures of, but Emily tapped her on the shoulder. “Do you want to look for your books, or take pictures of more strangers? They are expecting us back home at some point.” She asked. Rachael, chastened, asked Emily to hold onto the camera while she hurried off to the fantasy section.
Emily....
