2 Drabbles

Chriselle Date
Chris and Gregg were sitting on the front step of Gregg’s house talking about whatever. This is how they usually spent their time, this or, you know, making out.
That day had been just another boring day and to be honest Chris was tired of boring days. It was like her and Gregg lived in this little bubble, disconnected from the rest of the world.
Chris had to admit, it was her fault. Ever since Harriette cut them out of the Populars she slipped into a abyss of boring and yeah, she did it on purpose. She just wanted to ignore the point that she was boring and normal again.
“Well, my mom wants me home before dad gets home, so see you later.” Gregg said getting up.
“Bye.” Chris said. She watched Gregg get into his car and drive away, when he was gone she got up and went inside. And there goes the only excitement in her life.
Her mom and dad were gone for the weekend so she had to whole house to herself, which was a lot. She thought about eating but decided not too. So she went up to her room and decided to do her favorite thing, shop.
She quickly changed out of her at home clothes and into something more suitable for shopping then left the house. She got on a bus up to the big mall in the city. She lived in a smaller town outside of the city.
She listened to her iPod on the way to the mall, humming quietly till the person next to her told her to stop.
She got out of the bus at the mall, already feeling better, more alive. Inside the mall she got a lemonade and began to walk through the mall. Stopping by all the stores she liked.
After about three hours of non stop shopping she went to the food court to eat, she got a salad and an iced tea and sat down. As she ate she listened to her iPod again and looked around, she loved looking around and judging people’s fashion sense, it was shallow but tons of fun.
After finishing her food she got another lemonade and went outside to wait for the bus, she was surprised to see it already there, she smiled to herself, she was pretty lucky. She got onto the bus and sat next to a woman with a baby. The baby looked at her and smiled, Chris smiled back, the baby was so cute.
“He likes you.“ The woman said.
“He’s adorable, what is his name?” Chris asked.
“Caleb,” the woman said, “he’s four months old.”
“Aw, such a cute name.” Chris said, holding out her finger for the baby to grab. The baby giggled.
“Oh, this is our stop.” The woman said getting up.
“Bye.” Chris said, putting on her head phones for her iPod. Before she knew it the bus pulled up to her stop. She got out and walked home.
When she got home she dumbed all her bags on her bed and got on her laptop, she updated her Facebook status about shopping and then checked her email. At around 10:30 she decided to go to sleep, right before she drifted off to sleep she realised she hadn’t ate dinner, oh well.

Names

When DaeRi and AeGuk first came to A.L. High everyone knew them as Rachel and Adam. DaeRi and AeGuk were their given names but when they moved to America their mom thought it would be best if they had American names.
When Fedora befriended “Adam” she asked if Adam was his real name, curious because she thought Asian were supposed to have Asian names, she was only 10 at the time.When she heard AeGuk’s real name she told him she liked it better and continued to call him that, soon everyone got used to that name and eventually forgot about Adam.
With “Rachel” it was different, when figured out that Rachel was not her real name she changed it back, wanting to have a more unique name.
