Louisa had agreed to go shopping, something she hated to do, especially with someone else but cousins should spend time with each other right? Louisa liked Bree, of course she did, they were cousins but shopping with other people was annoying, not only that Bree knew her so it wasn't like Louisa could pretend to be someone else like she usually would. It irritated her somewhat but she would live with it. She enjoyed spending time with Bree, they were quite a like though of course that could sometimes cause problems.
She sat herself down on a bench outside the mall and played with the bracelets she had on. However much she tried to look cool she really just made herself look odd. Today she was wearing black and white checkered trousers with a black top with a deep red and black checkered waist coat. She had numerous amounts of bracelets and a couple of silver chains around her neck. Her hair hung loose as it always did, looking a complete mess and she wore way too much make-up. This was her attempt at looking cool though really it probably did the opposite.
Louisa looked up at the clock and sighed, when was Bree going to get here? She turned to look at the mall and wondered how this shopping trip was going to go. They nearly always ended up disagreeing about something.

Bree rounded the corner towards the mall at a lesuirely pace. She wouldnt have been going at normal speed if she had known that she was late, she hated having people wait on her! Her hands where tucked inside the pocket of her too large hoodie style sweatshirt, a simple gray in color. Music blasted through the ear buds and she walked to the beat, humming softly as she was caught up in the moment.
Bree looked like your average teenager, blue jeans, sneakers and a hoodie. That was what was instyle with comfort these days, at least so she thought. It wasnt to loud, it was neautral allowing her to blend in which is what she wanted to do. Be accsepted as part of the crowd.
When she saw Louisa she smiled and waived, taking one of the ear buds out but leaving the other in. "Hey!" she said too loudly. "You ready to do some shopping?" she asked grinning.

Louisa smiled as she saw Bree heading her way and got up. She heard her cousin all too clearly and quickly rushed over to her.
"You don't need to shout you know." Even though Louisa probably drew attention to herself with what she wore she didn't realise that and so her cousin talking unusually loud was not a good thing.
"Come on lets go." Oh yes Louisa was ready to go shopping, she was already gritting her teeth. She hated shopping so much but here she was and she was going to do it and she was going to force herself to bite her tongue and they were going to have a shopping trip without any arguing.

Bree winced a little bit and turned her music down so she wouldnt be possessed to talk loudly anymore. She still kept the one ear bud in, the music was like her own personal background music for the day. She liked to shop, or rather look. She rarely bought the things she would like to and settled on something that was always a little bit more ordinary.
Shopping with Louisa was fun, even though they didnt seem to agree alot of the time. Bree seemed to always make the wrong sort of judgments when it came to style and her suggestions. "Okay! Which store do you want to go to first?" she asked as she walked along side her cousin.
Hands in her pockets and gazed through the windows of the shops inside the mall. Pushing her glasses up her nose she turned her look at Louisa.

Oh the cousins were a strange pair - Louisa tended to like what her cousin wore but ended up buying what her cousin would rather wear because she thought it would make her look cool. Oh they took things in a very different way it seemed.
"Erm... I'm not bothered, where you want to go?" Louisa shrugged as she spoke, she wasn't one for decision making and knew that eventually she would end up in a shop where she could buy some clothes because she knew her cousin liked to look at them.
"How you finding school at the moment?" Might as well get a conversation going while they were shopping. If they were talking about school they were more likely to agree then disagree, which is always a good thing!

Hands in her pockets she righed a little as she looked down the long isleway and the stream of people. The endless din of their chatter, hundreds of voices talking at once. Her music faded out for a moment as she looked into that sea of people. "Uh-huh." she said though she hadnt been listening. She took a step or two towards her cousin, her anchor in the sea.
"School?" blinked and turned her head, the smallest of smiles as she ran her fingers through her bangs, the music began to blare out the voices and she relaxed a bit. "well school is ok, just the same old stuff. " she said with a shrug. "I have been considering joining a club of some sort this year." she said as she aimlessly wandered into the closest store. "I just dont know what."

Louisa was more then aware that her cousin hadn't been listening and just rolled her eyes. One of these days she was going to pull her earphones out and make her listen but she wasn't about to do that in a place that was so public.
Louisa was a year younger then her cousin and so she always had to ask about school. She wanted to know what it was like, whether it would get worse next year or not.
"A club?" Louisa hadn't ever thought about joining a club. "Surely you have some sort of idea what club you want to join?" The idea of her cousin joining a club seemed slightly amusing to Louisa. Neither of them were exactly good in social situations but both dealt with it differently and Louisa just couldn't see Bree in a club but then maybe Bree was becoming less socially awkward?

Bree had managed to walk into a store that catered to girls that liked bright jewlery, shiny objects and makeup. Not all of the jewlery on the walls was unappealing and she lightly clicked bracelets out of her way as she studied their designs. "Well, It would be better to have a club on my record for collage applications." she said. "but no.. I dont really have any idea. There are so many."
It was true, while she wanted too she was just about frozen stiff with the idea of joining a club. It would be easier if she found one that shared one of her intrests but she didnt know just which one.
She picked up a bracelet that had little charms of silver stars on them but the bracelt itself was a rubber in brightly colored assorted neon. "what do you think?" she asked as she held it out.

Louisa had followed without really noticing where they were heading.
"Fair enough, hopefully you will choose soonish." She smiled and looked round the shop half wondering why they were in there. It was a really bright shop though there were a few things that caught her eye.
"It's a bit bright Bree, maybe that one!" She pointed to a similar kind of bracelet but it was a silver chain with lots of charms that could be removable and so some could be added. Near by there were lots of charms as well of various things.
"Look there is one of a witch hat, it's perfect for you Bree!"

Bree studied the bracelet on in her hands a bit and eventually nodded putting it back on the shelf. "yeah I suppose so. " she said as she lightly tapped her finger against her chin as if she was studing a piece of fine artwork.
"I just dont know what I want to be involved with. The Astronomy club would be kinda neat I suppose but that would take away from time sleeping, and the book club wouldnt read the sort I like.." she pondered out loud. Bree valued a good nights sleep, as much as she liked the stars she would not sacrifice her eight hours a night for them.
Bree moved to peer over louisa's shoulder at the silver bracelet with charms. "oooh." she nodded her approval. "Its nice, a bit plain though dont you think?" she asked and lightly poked at one of the charms watching it dance. "But you can personalize it with charms I suppose."
At the mention of the witches hat Bree stepped back and crossed her arms over her chest with the most serious expression and tone. "just what are you trying to say Louisa?" it took alot of effort not to smile and burst out laughing.

Louisa listened to her cousin talking about clubs though not really paying attention and just nodding her head and hmming at the right moments. She was paying much more attention to the bracelet and the charms though once her cousin turned her attention to the bracelet she paid a little more attention.
"Of course, that's the whole point of charm bracelets!" She laughed, oh the things her cousin said sometimes.
"What am I trying to say? Well that you might as well walk around in big black robes with a black cat and pointed hat with your broomstick... I mean we all know you are really a big bad witch in disguise!" Louisa laughed and stuck her tongue out teasingly at her cousin. At least they could sometimes mess about with each other.

Bree frowned and stomped her foot in mock anger. "dang it all! My secret is out! You know I'll have to hex you for your silence now." she said and wagged a finger towards Louisa before she broke into a smile.
She leaned forward and admired the bracelet again for a moment. "well then why dont you get it? You could get alot of different charms and just change them out to suit your mood or outfit for the day." she suggested, trying to be helpful. She rather thought that would be a cute idea.

Louisa laughed, how could she not? It was highly amusing, her cousin joking about hexing her? The idea just amused her maybe a little too much.
"Well I would like to see you try!" She laughed again and then looked back at the bracelet. It was so pretty.
"Yeah maybe you are right. Okay I shall get it but what charms?" She wasn't sure now, there were so many. She would get the little camera, as she adored photography and at least one of the animal ones because well, that much was obvious but then what else?
"You could always get one too?"
