It was the next day, Today Desmond was suppose to go on a shopping mall trip, He was nervous about Trish suddenly showing up, Especially what happened yesterday, She must have a found him odd. Crowe Decided to try and stay natural about this.

Crowe was fixing his outfit as He combed his hair and looked at himself in the mirror, He took off the bandage on the nose as He looked at it. It was okay but not exactly.

There was a knock on the door as He said "Come in" The door was open as Mickie entered as Desmond had a smile on his face.

Desmond: Hi Mickie.

Mickie: Hey Desmond, Are you feeling okay? Is your nose okay?

Desmond: I'm fine, My nose is also a bit okay. . . Not exactly though.

Mickie: I hope you continue to get better, I was so worried about you.

Desmond: You don't need to worry, Mickie.

Mickie smiled and hugged him as Desmond looked at her and hugged her back as He smiled at her.

Mickie: Have a great time at the mall, Take care of yourself.

Desmond: You too Mickie.

He smiled a little nervously before Mickie smiled and walked away as Desmond went downstairs.

After a while.

Desmond was in the back seat with Randell and Trish while Tom was driving the car as Johnny was in the backseat, Desmond was sweating as He looked at Trish who was looking around while fixing her hair bow.

Randell: Are you gonna have fun, Trish?

Trish: Of course, I'll gladly be in this mall trip with you all, I'm sure I'm going to have lots of fun.

She smirked and fixed her hair as She glanced at Desmond as Crowe was sweating and looking around.

Randell: Thats great to hear, What about you Desmond? Excited to shop?

Desmond:

He was starring nervously as Randell was smiling and looking at him, Trish stared at Desmond for a few seconds as Desmond cleared his throat.

Desmond: Yes I am. This is going to be awesome.

Tom: Well. . . . We already arrived.

Tom stared at Desmond before stopping the car as Trish was looking at Desmond.

Trish: You go first.

Desmond: Uhhh of course.

They all got out of the car as Stratus was last to get out. She smiled and was looking around as The Five went inside the mall.

They were shopping for some men clothings as Desmond was looking around, He looked at some jeans as The Rest of them were finding outifts for Desmond.

Johnny: Is it me or Desmond looks really nervous?

Randell: I agree, Even Trish has been glancing at him.

Tom: I mean, Desmond is nervous and awkward sometimes, Thats why she looks at him?

Johnny: I guess that's the case.

Desmond was looking at some pair of shoes until Trish walked towards him as He was worried and was gonna walk away.

Trish: Hey, Continue searching. I'm not doing anything.

Desmond: Well, There's nothing interesting here actually. . . .

Trish: Mmmm, Or maybe your just nervous?

Desmond: No. . .

Trish raised an eyebrow, Desmond gave a nervous smile until he heard Randell calling him.

Randell: Desmond! Over here!!

Desmond: Coming!!!

He immediately ran as Trish was looking at him as She went the other way.

Randell: I have this suit's coat for you, Go and wear it in the dressing room.

Johnny: Its right around you, We will be waiting.

Desmond: Alright! Thanks.

Desmond took the Coat and immediately walked away as The Three turned their backs and were talking. They also stood next the dressing room.

Desmond was making his was to the dressing, sighing before getting inside. . . When he got inside Trish suddenly got inside with him without The other three knowing.

Desmond turned and saw Trish as His eyes were widen.

Desmond: Trish!?-

Trish shut the door as She quickly walked towards him, She pushed him against the wall as His eyes were widen in shock and confusion.

Desmond: Wait, What are you doing here?-

Trish: *Puts a finger on his lip* Shush, Before I put another finger on your lip.

Desmond was silent as He was feeling super awkward that Trish was in the men's dressing room with him.

Trish: Why are you acting so nervous and odd, Desmond?

Desmond: I wasn't at all.

Trish: Hmmm, Let me make you remember yesterday then.

Desmond: Look, Your getting the wrong idea. . . . Can you move back first?

Trish: Not yet, Till you give me an explanation.

Desmond gulped as Trish fixed her hair and looked at him as Crowe spoke.

Desmond: I think it's me and Mickie right? If so, I'm being really honest right now. Me and Mickie are just friends, Okay? . . . .

Trish: Hmph, I gotta admit, You both are actually really good at acting. Becaaaauusee It looks real.

Desmond: . . . . . . Ummmm, Are you assuming that . . Me and Her are. . . D-Dating?

Trish: Woah, Your already getting there?

Desmond stared at her as Trish giggled as Crowe was starring at her.

( Oh god, What did I put myself into?? )

Desmond: I thought thats what you were thinking. . . . . .

Trish: Mmmm, It would be strange if I was your girlfriend and you were dating my best friend at the same time.

Desmond: . . . I wouldn't do that, You know?

Trish foxed her hair and let out a giggle as she continued looking at him.

Desmond: Believe me, Trish. I have nothing to do with Mickie now. We're just good friends now. . . Believe me.

Trish: Really?

Desmond: Yes, I am as honest I can be.

Trish: Okay, Don't be too nervous telling it then.

Desmond quickly nodded his head as Trish heard noises as She smiled at him.

Trish: Okay, If you say so though. I'm surely not doubting you.

She winked and laughed as Desmond's eyes were widen before Trish stepped back.

Trish: See ya, Love.

Trish walked away as Desmond touched his heart and breathed in Relief.

Stratus walked out of the dressing room as The three were looking at her.

Tom: Wait, Why did Trish came out from there?

Johnny: I guess she was doing something? I mean, Why in the men's dressing room?

Randell: Strange but I guess let's leave her.

Tom was about to speak until Desmond came out of the same dressing room where Trish came out, Tom, Randell and Johnny's eyes were widen as They looked at Trish who was still walking away then Looked at Desmond.

Johnny: Wait what-

Desmond slowly turned as He saw their reaction.

Desmond's eyes were widen as He realised he came out in the wrong time.

Desmond: Uh oh! Just a mintue

He immediately ran back inside as All three of them were looking at eachother.

Randell: What the?. . . .

Johnny: I'm. . . Confused.

They all looked at eachother before waiting for Desmond.

The Rest of the day went awkward since it became a bit silent after that, It did go well though. Desmond made his way back to the mansion along with the others, Trish stayed in the mansion for sometime before leaving as Desmond was looking at Trish saying "Goodbye" to everyone.

Trish looked at him and smiled before walking away as Crowe cleared his throat.

( Good gosh. . . )

He was scratching his head, A Few mintues Later He got a message as He looked at the ID and saw it was Trish.

Trish: Hey Desmond, I'm sorry if I worried you or made you nervous in the mall hehehehe. Anyways, Wanna have lunch tomorrow at my house?

Desmond stared at the message as he clicked on it and looked.

( Weeeell She obviously loved making me nervous there. . . Haha. . Hope she isn't suspicious. )

Desmond: Hey Trish, Its definitely okay and sure. I will love to have lunch with you tomorrow.

Trish: Awesome! See you tomorrow. Love you! ❤

Desmond: Love you too ♡

He chuckled to himself as He closed his phone until he saw Mickie walking towards him.

Mickie: Hey Desmond, How was the mall trip?

Desmond: Ehhh, It was actually pretty good. .

Mickie: Thats great to hear. Ummm maybe we will have to start moving out a little later, Maybe after two weeks?

Desmond: Two weeks? That sounds okay, I understand we need to pack everything and make sure everything is okay with it apartment.

Mickie: Thats right, It will be a busy two weeks but it will be worth it.

Desmond: *Smiles* Can't wait to move in with you.

Mickie: Same to you.

She giggled as Desmond smiled and pulled her for a hug, The rest of the day went peacefully afterwards.
