Tarlar soon found herself first in the line, and then being called over to a register. She waltzed over, and laid her many clothes and jewelry on the counter. She pulled out a fat wallet, and unloaded a few big bills to pay for it. Everything was soon squeezed into 3 bags, which struggled to carry as she walked over to where Summer and Kayla stood.

Summer rolled her eyes at Tarlar's three large bags. "I'm surprised you bought so much from here - did you leave all your clothes at home or something?" Summer said, only half joking. She was called up to the counter/register, gently placed the three shirts on the counter, and paid. She took the gray bag from the woman working there, and checked the time on her blackberry. "Okay, do you want to stay at the mall for another hour and then go with me to see that horse?" she asked, referring to the horse her father wanted her to buy that she had told the two about an hour earlier.

"Stay at the mall. ZUMIEZ!" Tarlar cried out. She hung the bag handles on her wrists, and grabbed Kayla and Summers hands, dragging them out of the store in the direction of Zumiez. "They have cute shirts here with monsters on them," she said happily. She had looked online, and already had in mind what she wanted.

"Well yeah but I mean for another hour," Summer said, speed-walking after Tarlar. She walked into Zumiez and examined the shirts. "I'm not sure how much I even want to buy....I already have a lot of new clothes that I bought before coming here. I just needed more workout shirts," she said. She looked through the circular rack of clothes, her high white-blonde ponytail swishing every time she looked at a different shirt.

Jasper walked into Zumiez, the only store that made going to mall worth going too. He started to look at the racks, and looked over to see a ginger dragging her two friends into the store. His lips curled up, amused. He saw his friend Hunter walk in after them.
Hunter walked in behind the three girls, checking them out from behind swiftly. He caught Jaspers eye and nodded making an 'oh yeah' expression. His wavy blond hair bounced as he walked over to Jasper. "Hey man," he said, high fiving the ginger. "Look," he said, glancing over at the three girls. "A ginger, one of your kind," he joked.
Jasper high fived his friend back. "I know, we gingers are few but we exist," he said. He ruffled his ginger, and surveyed the three chicks. "Talk to them?" he asked Hunter, who was greedily watching the three girls.
Hunter nodded. "Yeah," he said. He dumped his girlfriend back home before coming the academy, so he was all for finding someone new to have a fling with. Maybe get serious, but that wasn't his style. He strolled over to the three girls, addressing the pretty ginger first. "Hey, I'm Hunter," he said, looking into her eyes, hoping to dazzle her with his own clear blue orbs.
Tarlar looked over. "Hey, I'm Tarlar," she said casually, as if they had been friends for a long time. She held up a shirt that was striped like line paper, and had the doodle of three monsters on it. "Yes or no?" she asked.
"Mmmmm, yes," Hunter said, deciding the shirt was actually kinda cute. His eyes focused on the brand name, Ralik. He had a few of those type of shirts back at the academy, they were pretty sweet.
Tarlar nodded. She grabbed his wrist, made his hold it out, and then hung the shirt on his arm by the hanger. She might as well make use of him while he was here. She rested her khols bags on the floor, making sure to keep an eye on them. She started to look through the rack some more. "So what school do you go to?" she asked.
He gave her a weird look when she reached for his arm and made him hold it out, but his expression changed into an amused smile when he realized what she was doing. He held his arm a little closer to his body to be more comfortable. "Starry Skies. A horse riding academy," he said.
Tarlar stopped dead in her search for more shirts. She looked at him, her mouth slightly hanging open. "Me too!" she exclaimed. "I have only been going for three weeks, but still, I cant believe we haven't met," she said.
Hunter shrugged. "Well i'm pretty new. Thats why," he replied. "How long have you been riding?" he asked.

Summer decided to be a little social and introduce herself to the people Tarlar was talking to. She started with Hunter. "Hi, I'm Summer...Tarlar kidnapped me here to the mall," she joked, "do you go to Starry Skys? Or one of the nearby academies?"

"Yes, I go to Starry Skies," Hunter repeated. He looked over his shoulder, and nodded to Jasper. This was something they both knew fairly well. Hunter was the 'appetizer' and Jasper the 'Main Course'. Hunter had a way with first impressions, so he was always first. If the girl(s) was decent, he would call over Jasper.
Jasper strolled over. "I'm Jasper," he said, slipping his all this fingers but his thumbs into his front pockets, falling into a confident stance. His blue eyes surveyed the two girls.

"Hi, I'm Summer," she repeated, in case Jasper didn't hear. "I'm assuming you're another Starry Skies student?" Her blue eyes flicked over towards Jasper, her high white-blonde ponytail swishing a bit as she moved her head slightly.

Jasper looked at the blonde named Summer. Very repetitive child... "No, I got o Willow Springs," he said. maybe he would switch; he hadn't even seen another student at Willow Springs yet. Tarlar started to sort through the clothes that hung from Hunters muscular arm. Monster Tee, Striped V-Neck, and a funny striped tee was only the start of Tarlars new Zumiez wardrobe.

"Oh...whats it like at Willow Springs? I never went there because my dad liked Starry Skies a lot just by visiting it once," Summer said, rolling her eyes at her father's sudden "love" of the campus.

Kayla rested one of legs pretty much ignoring the others. She decided to be polite "hi, I'm Kayla" she said smiling.
Z walked into the store looking around a bit. She noticed a group of younger people standing around talking so she decided to introduce herself. "Hey y'all I'm Zoey but you can all call me Z" she said in her mixed accent. She brushed her long silky black hair out of her face.
(sorry it took so long to get back to this post had a crazy day today)

Jasper shrugged. "Honestly, I can't say, but there arent a lot of people there, and they arent welcoming..." he admit. He looked over at Kayla. "Hey," he said, giving her a word before returning his attention to the other two girls. He turned around, and now saw and heard weird black haired... accented... girl. "Um, hello," he said, his voice awkward and somewhat hostile. It was starting to get way to crowded. Tarlar looked over. "Hey, I'm Tarlar," she said, not wanting to be rude. Yeah, she was a social butterfly, and would talk to anyone, but she didnt want to loose the attention of these hotties. She went back to looking for clothes on the rack. Out of the periphery of her vision, she saw Hunter looking at her. She granted him a smile, and then went back to work. She spotted a colorful TWLOHA hoodie, and decided to take it. She hung it on Hunters arms. "Getting tired yet?" she teased. Hunter laughed. "Hate to disappoint you, but I think I will stick around," he said. He looked onto the rack. "You should get this hoodie" he said with a smile. "Oooooo, good pick," Tarlar said, and hung it on his arm.

"I don't get it," Summer said, pointing towards the gray hoodie. "Like, whats the point of it saying "I've never felt so alive"? It's kind of random. I like the normal hoodie that just says TWLOHA." Summer looked towards Zoey. "Hi, Zoey," she greeted, disregarding the short nickname. She turned her head back towards Jasper. Her platinum blonde ponytail swished as she turned her head. "Oh, they're not friendly? I'm sorry. Hey, I was thinking I should like, throw a secret party at Starry Skys or something and invite people from Starry Skys and a few from other schools. What do you all think? I could invite you [Jasper] and Hunter," Summer said.

Kayla smiled at Z "hey" she said. For some reason she suddenly felt tired and a little annoyed for no reason and was in no mood to talk to anybody. She stopped resting her leg and stood up. She heard her cell start to play Animals by Nickelback and she answered the phone walking off by herself. After she hung up she walked back to the others "huh well see you guys later. I need to get home" she said in a slightly annoyed voice, and left the store. "My mom lives close and my trucks there so I guess see you back at Starry Skys" she said slightly waving and walking away. As usual a phone call with her mom had ended in a fight.
Z smiled and nodded to all of them. Oddly she didn't know any of them, she had lived around here for about two years so she pretty much knew most people by sight even if she didn't know them as friends. She knew the girl who had just left was Kayla, she had seen her around Willow Springs some times with Marak who she knew cause he went to her stable for the last five months. She smiled and slightly waved "well I'm gonna see if I can find anything good to buy here today" she said walking to a few different racks. She was out shopping today cause she just got some spending money from her parents and it was a lot of money. They had just sold her mares foal and had got a nice amount of money out of him witch she got most of.

"Have fun walking," Tarlar teased with a smile. She looked over at Summer. "They are just words. It means I'm a happy person and I feel alive," she said. "Ralik is a good brand to look out for," she said after the girl named 'Z' when she walked away. She looked back at Summer. "A party? YES! In my dorm room. I have a big room, no dormmate, a big 'mini fridge', bean bag chairs, a couch... um yeah, and a lot of space to dance!" she said. She looked at Hunter and Jasper. "If boys arent allowed in my dorm... well, I will sneak you in. Ground floor rooms for the win!" she exclaimed.
She linked her arm with Hunters free arm and steered him to the register. She unlinked their arms, and unhooked all the hangers and placed the clothes on the register. She turned and looked to Summer, "Bring my Khols bags over here?" she pleaded. She turned back to the register and went through her wallet to get her cash and money gift cards out. She was a $3 TWLOHA rubber bracelet, snatched it, and added it to the pile.

"Wait, Kayla, I need your cell phone number in case I need to call you or something!" Summer called after her, hoping she'd turn around. [not your literal number lol] "Sounds perfect to me!" Summer said, getting excited for party plans. "First of all, who are we going to invite?" she asked, pulling out her phone to make a note in it. She typed "Hunter, Jasper, Kayla" in the virtual note. "We're going to have to be pretty hush hush about this so we don't get in trouble," she said with a mischievous smile, her big blue eyes glittering. "And if we're going to throw a party, I'm going to want to get some kind of cute outfit for it."

Kayla glanced at Tarlar and turned before totally leaving. "The walking gonna be the fun part. Being home with mom not so much" she said with a smirk, before stopping one more time to call her number to Summer, before turning and leaving.
Z glanced at Talar "thanks for the tip" she said with a smile. She looked around before settling a couple of things. She didn't have much time today, she had a jumping practice with Shadow before long. She was sure she would be making a stop at the Tack Shop as well, she also knew the girl who worked there rode at her stable along with the girl who worked at the pet shop witch she would most likley be stopping there too, Domino needed a few things, she began making a list of the resent things he had eaten 'water dish, food dish, gutted stuffed toy, ruined a tug-of-war rope' and the list went on."I swear that dog eats everything in site" she mumbled under her breath to herself.

"Okay, bye Kayla!" Summer said in a cheery voice. "So Z...which academy do you go to?" she asked, trying to make some small talk while waiting for Tarlar to answer.

Z smiled and looked up from her thoughts. "I ride over at Willow Springs. Been riding there since I was fifteen" she said with a smile.

Z shrugged. "seventeen" she said with a half smile. "So I guess I have lived here about two years" she said with smile, thinking of the age that Domino was.

"Oh cool. I've never really been away from home before aside from riding clinics over the summer and traveling with my old riding team. The prestige of Starry Skys is what grabbed my father's attention," Summer said, rolling her blue eyes.

Z laughed and nodded. "Yeah my parents thought Willow Springs would mellow me out" she said rolling her eyes. "I got into a lot of trouble and fights with my mom, and me and my mom got into it bad one after I had a riding accident..." she said trailing off. She used to be to proud of the scar on her cheek now she saw it as being stupid. "Same one that one that landed me this" she said pulling her hair back to show a three inch scar on her cheek. She shook her head thinking about that crazy colt that put her in the hospital for a long time along with being in a cast for a long time as well.

"Oh....I'm sorry. At least being at school is like, a break from your mom. How'd you get that scar?" Summer asked. She had been in riding accidents, but never had severe scarring like the one that was being shown to her right now. At least she has a mom... Summer thought sadly.

Jasper looked over at Z. "You are the first student from their I have met," his said, his voice a bit cold.
Tarlar took her two Zumiez bags and piled them with the 3 Khols bags. "Well, Hunter and Jasper of course. Kayla and Marak can come too," she said, and glanced at Z. "If she isn't a weirdo, she can come," she said, her voice too low for anyone but Summer to hear.

Summer smiled from Tarlar's comment as she typed the names into her phone's notepad. "Okay. We should probably stop somewhere to get those typical red cups and snacks and stuff for the party," she said. "Z, you're coming to our party tonight," she added. Why is Jasper being so cold towards Zoey? she wondered, keeping her phone in her hand. The Blackberry's screen went black from not being used after a couple of seconds.

Z smiled. "Yeah she can be a lot to handle, but since I came here I haven't got into any trouble, and me and my mom have been getting a long pretty well." She smiled "it kinda happens when your face gets smashed into a arena rail." she said shacking her head.
She glanced over to Jasper "yeah well doesn't seem to be to many people ride there" she said, before looking back to what she was doing.
She looked back to Summer with a smile "yeah sure sounds fun" she said with a smile.
