~time jump to february~

"dad!! scar wants to take me shopping today while you finish up your scenes! can i go?" i shout from my room after receiving a text from scarlett saying she wanted to take me to go to a few stores

suddenly chris walks into my room with a smile on his face, he sits down beside me on my bed. "of course you can darling." he says before flopping backwards onto his back and putting his hands on his head

"what's wrong?" i laugh at his childish actions

"oh nothing, it's just going to be a long few days with finishing up the few scenes left then that means we have to start press tour soon and it will just be a long few months in the up coming" he mumbles and i just laugh

"oh it will be fun! think of all the tv shows youll be on!" i flop down beside him so we both lay on our backs

"yeah but it's all the same questions we can't answer and then they get way to personal sometimes and it gets boring" he turns his head to face me and i do the same

"wait does that mean i'm going to have to stay with uncle scott just like i did around christmas when you had to go to new york for the tonight now?" i ask

"yeah, i would take you with me so we could travel but it's mostly just interviews and it's not much fun" he sighs before getting up off the bed and walking out of my room.

i get up as well and get changed for the day so scarlett can some pick me up. i brush my hair, my teeth, and put on my converse shoes that dad got me for my birthday.

scarlett texts me that she's here so i say goodbye to chris before walking out to door to her car. i open the door and hop in. "good afternoon" i smile

"hello, angel" she smiles back

"where are we going today?" i ask as she pulls out of the driveway and starts driving.

"well i was thinking we could go to the mall. you can help me pick out a red carpet dress for the premier then we can do whatever you want. maybe get you a red carpet dress as well?" she asks curiously

"wait really! i can help you pick out a dress" i get all excited and she just laughs

"of course you can! i would love your help" she gives a big smile before making our way to the mall to start looking.

we go into store after store finding nothing but weird or bad dresses that just don't fit with the red carpet look.

we decide to stop at the food court to take a break and get some food. i order a burger with fries and scarlett gets a piece of pizza. we find a table in the back that isn't to busy and sit down to relax for a few minutes before we go back to shopping

suddenly scar gets a call so she answers her phone and starts talking. "hello?"
"oh yeah! oh yeah of course!"
"it's really no problem at all, have fun tonight and i'll see you tomorrow"
she hangs up the phone and looks at me with a certain look

"he's going out on another date with her isnt he?" i ask letting out a sigh

"yeah he is, but it's okay! you are going to have a sleepover with me and maybe we can have a movie night or something fun" she gives a warm smile and i force a smile back.

i understand that i not going to be the only girl in chris life and i'm completely okay with that! i want him to be happy and she seems to make him happy but she doesn't seem to like me a lot. she always thinks i'm around chris to much and that 'i'm stealing him away from her'.

which i don't see to be true. he's my dad so obviously i'm going to spend time with him. but she just seems very controlling and whiny- for an adult who is capable for doing things on her own. she's always calling chris for help doing the smallest things, like she is a child and can't function by her self.

"come on, let's go back to shopping. there are still a few dress stores to look at" scarletts voice brings me out of my head and i just nod my head and stand up to throw out my garbage and she follows me.

we go to the last dress store when we find the perfect dress for scarlett. it's short, red and beautiful. she tries it on and it's like it was made for her.

"wow" i say in amazement as she looks in the mirror checking out the dress herself. "you look like a princess"

"thank you angel" she smiles before going back to get changed and the coming out in her regular clothes.

we grab the dress before going to pay for it and leaving the store. we didn't see any dresses for me today but she said she will take me out another time before the premiere.

we head to the exit before a store catches my eye and i grab scarletts arm. "can we go in?" i point to which store i mean and she smiles before walking in and grabbing my hand- holding it in hers

we wait in line at build-a-bear until it's our turn and i pick out a bear and go through the process of stuffing it and making it. then we walk to go pick out an outfit. i look at all the different options before settling on the perfect option.

i grab the captain america costume and walk to the cash to pay. after that we exit the store, my hand still in scarletts, and make our way to the car talking about where to find my dress.

just as we exit the mall someone bumps into me. "oh i'm so sorry!" i apologize but the woman who bumped into me just stares at me like she saw a ghost.

scarlett pulls me away from the woman and pulls me towards the car to drive back to her house.

"that was weird" she says as we get into the car

"it really was" i mumble back as she pulls out of the huge mall parking lot
