"Thank you for shopping at PacSun, have a nice day," the cashier smiles at me.

I return a small smile and take the bags. "Liza, Sara says she's coming here right now."

"Ok, can you call Emilian so they can come for these bags? I can't really get my phone, my hands are full." Liza has a bit more bags than me because she left most of her clothes in Canada and needed new ones.

I click on Seb's name and he answers immediately, "What's up baby, are you ok?"

"Yeah we're fine. We just wanted to know if you guys can take these bags to the car please?"

"Of course, love. We'll be there. I love y-." I hang up. Oops.

"Liza I think I'm going to do that prank where you don't say I love you back to see your partners reaction."

"I see that video all over social media but, are you sure you want to do that on Emilian?"

"Not today, I'm just thinking about it."

"Oh there's Sarah," she points behind me.

I turn around, "Heyyyyy girl, you look cute."

"Thanks, I see you ladies are having fun already," she examines the amount of bags we have. "A bit too much fun. Damn who's money are you guys spending."

I see Seb and Lucian approaching. "There's," I point to them.

"Oh hi Emilian," she turns to Luci, "And you must be Lucian."

"Yes that's me, nice to meet you." Then he turns to my sister, taking her bags.

"Well, my boyfriend is with his friends but I'll call him over for a second."

She walks over to a group of guys and whisper into one of the shorter one's ear. He looks up with an irritated face but when his eyes lands on Liza, he smiles.

"Sis you saw that too right?" I ask Eliza.

"Yup."

"Saw what?" Lucian and Emilian asks.

"All I have to say is, watch him."

Sara introduces us, "This is my best friend Elara and her sister. And this is their boyfriends Emilian and Lucian." Me and Liza say a quick hi but Lucian and Emilian just nod their heads. "And guys this is Gabriel."

"Pleasure to meet you guys," he says but he is only looking at Liza.

Sara breaks the awkward silence by saying, "Ok babe, you can go back with your friends now."

"Nah, I'll stay. They'll understand."

"Ok let's go. I want to go to footlocker," I tell the group.

"Same, I need shoes,"Eliza adds.

Emilian takes my hand and I ask, "Baby can we get matching shoes."

"Whatever you want love."

"Yay, come on." We all enter foot locker but Emilian and I go a different direction than them.

"Are you fine with holding the bags for a while longer?"

"Yes baby. I need to keep my best friend away from your best friend's so called boyfriend," he smiles then kisses my forehead. These men and their possessiveness.

I roll my eyes, "You like these?" I say pointing at a pair of gray nikes.

"Babe, you think those would look cute on me?" I point at the bottom shelf.

"Anything looks cute on you."

I smile,"Babe seriously I want your honest opinion."

"Which pair?"

"Let me get them." I begin to bend over to pick them up but Lucian stops me.

"Tell me which one babygirl."

"The pink ones with the black laces."

I look out of the corner of my eye to see Gabriel staring at me whiles Sara is talking to him. Lucian looks in his direction and sighs.

"Babygirl I am so close to punching that little boy in the face, you have no idea."

"Calm down Luci."

"He hasn't stopped staring at you since he arrived and I don't like it."

"I'm fine right now, as long as he doesn't come up to me." I look down at the bags in Lucian's hand and they look very heavy but I know my man isn't going to admit that.

"Luci, why don't you guys carry the bags to the car."

"I'm good."

"Please?" I pout. "Babe I know they're are heavy so either you give me some to hold or you carry them."

"Fine but call me if you need anything. I'll be quick."He calls Emilian to go to the car and I walk over to Elara. She has two matching pairs of shoes for her and Emilian.

"You and Emilian are too cute. I think I'm done but I wanted to buy something for Luci before he goes."

"When is he leaving?"

"In two days."

"Well, I wanted to get something for Emilian too."

"Ooo you can make him a little gift basket with sweats, cologne, jewelry, snacks and other stuff you think he'd like."

"I love that idea, I'm definitely doing that but I don't know if I can buy all of the things today."

"I think I'm going to buy everything for Lucian tomorrow or I'll just wait for when he comes back," I tell her.

"Mhm. Where's Sara?"

"She said she wasn't feeling good," a voice from behind me says. I turn around to see Gabriel grinning at me.

"Then why are you not with her?"

"She'll be fine. Um, can I get your number?" he replies. Hell no.

I furrow my eyebrows, "For what?"

"Just in case I have to call on Sara's behalf."

"I'm not her best friend, she is."

I see Lucian walk back into the shop. His eyes are on Gabriel . Emilian whispers something into his ears which visibly calms him. He stands behind me wrapping his arms around my waist.

"Can I ask why you're speaking to my woman?" Lucian asks calmly.

"Oh, she was just about to give me her number."

Me and Elara look at each other and laugh. "No the hell I wasn't. Please leave us alone."

I turn around to go to the check out, leaving the conversation. "Baby I'm ready to pay then I think Elara wants to go to Victoria's Secret. I need to get some underwear from there too."

"Ok babygirl but can I watch you try them on?"

"No you can't Lucian. Nice try though."

"You guys can head to the store and we'll pay for the shoes," Emilian says.

"Do you need the cards?" I ask both of them.

"No, that's yours," Lucian kisses my forehead.

"Ok, come on Lara."

"I'm so hungry," she says rubbing her stomach.

"Same, and I ate before we got here," I giggle.

We walk into Victoria's Secret and we go to our different sections.
