MISFIT ❁ ALEX ALVAREZ

Double Date

Aria's POV

"If you're gonna drag me to mall, can we at least stop by Auntie Anne's?" I begged Eric as we maneuvered through the busy mall

"Fine, but then we go straight to buy the sneakers. I've been waiting for them to come out for months." Eric decided, pushing me gently towards the pretzel stand

I clapped, excitedly, and quickly order Cinnamon Sugar Pretzel Nuggets and a lemonade for Eric, before moving to the side to wait for our order

My phone buzzed in my pocket, making me pull it out, and quickly begin laughing when I read the message on my phone to Eric.

"Nora said she spotted us on Snapchat map and wanted to know if she and Alex could meet up with us at the mall. Said she really wants to take me to one of her favorite stores." I smiled as I read

"If she wasn't dating Alex, I would've guessed Nora had a crush on you. Tell them to come, at least I'll have someone who can appreciate my sneakers." Eric agreed, as he grabbed the order from the worker, and paid after a bit of bickering between us

"So does this mean we're waiting to go get the sneakers until Alex gets here?" I asked, as I popped a nugget into my mouth

"Yeah, I guess we have to." He smiled, stealing one of the pretzel nuggets from the cup

"That's means more time to shop for me. First stop; Victoria's Secret." I smirked, pausing in front of the store we had just happened across

"I know you wanted me to act all embarrassed, but since I consider myself a man of non-toxic masculinity, I gladly accept your request." He smirked, sipping his lemonade in response

"Okay, Prince Charming. It'll only be ten minutes, anyways. I just have to get stuff for dance." I shrugged

He nodded as we walked into the store. I began to scan through the different bras, looking for something that wouldn't show through the uniform

I felt a tap in my shoulder, turning to find Eric with a bra held up to his face like a pair of bug eyes.

I quietly laughed, moving it from his face, "And I thought you were supposed to be mature."

"Oh, I'm plenty mature. I just saw an opportunity and took it." He shrugged, making his way over to the perfumes to snoop around

I quietly laughed, watching his face scrunch up at certain smells.

I saw Nora walk into the store with Alex trailing behind her, and I offered her a friendly wave, as I watched Alex walk up behind Eric and pat him on the shoulder.
