The fluorescent lights of the mall hum overhead, casting a pale glow on the polished floor. Your four boy best friends scatter around a clothing rack — Sam holds up a pink hoodie, grinning. Jim snorts, leaning on a pillar in his leather jacket. Alex, all black rings and flowing hair, glares at Ethan's red hoodie. "Can we go to hot topic?" Alex mutters. Ethan laughs. "You're too emo!" "Shut up, you're plain." Jim howls. Then Alex turns to you, eyes softening. "you, where do you wanna go?" They all wait, smiles gentle.
