Bee pov
I spin around like an inexperienced model as I look into the mirror. A light, baby blue dress, with white lace, and a black bow. I won't lie it looks nice but... I look at the chair that holds my original clothes and compare them. A wrinkled MCR tee, one size small sports bra, and baggy jeans. Out of all the clothes in the world, those are my favorite. I turn around and look into the mirror; the eye bags under my tired eyes, my hair messy from trying on other dresses and taking them off, and my legs weak from walking around stores all day.
"Bee! C'mon out so we can see how pretty you look!", A voice yells at me. Many giggles and chatter soon follow, and I take that as my cue to step out of the dressing room.
I walk out to where my mother, her friends, and our relatives are. I cross my arms and slouch feeling uncomfortable. All I want to do is call my burrito buddy. We could go to a park and make little kids cry, or to the movies and make fun of the actors, or we-
"Bee! Earth to Bee. Do you like the dress.", My mother asks taking while taking pictures of me.
"Oh, of course, she likes the dress, she is a girl after all.", My Aunt barks. God, I hate her. Then again I hate everyone in my family.
What time is it? I look around for a clock and find nothing. I look back to everyone around me. I see they have more clothes for me and a few for my younger cousins. Empty thoughts race through my head as my mom hands me more dresses and skirts to try on. To be honest I can't remember why we're here. I walk back into the dressing room and just sit there just thinking.
It's okay me just get through this and we can go to that one store with Alexander.' I look up and to my luck find a clock. I stand up to get a better look and see it reads 1:32 pm. 'Yes, just 30 more minutes of this! I put on a striped black and white shirt, a black skirt with a little white lace design on the bottom right side, and one size too big white leggings. I walk out of the room again to see my Aunt. Her red curly hair sways as she fast walks towards me. I flinch hearing her black heels hit the wooden floor. she looks to me and what I'm wearing.
"Oh, honey you almost look like a proper lady! We should buy you a whole new wardrobe and donate all the other stuff. Oh! We could even get you some makeup so we can fix this boy like face of yours. Mary...MARY!", she yells for my mother gripping my arm tightly.
"I'm coming, Helen. Oh my! You won't believe what I've found!", I hear quick footsteps as my mother comes into view. I look to what she's holding and see... Pink.
I remember why we've been shopping so much now. We're going to a wedding in a few weeks. I look to the pink object my mother is now holding up, and now see it's a longer simple dress, pink with white flower designs bunched up in the center to then be spread across the rest of the dress in various places. My mother hands it to me and almost demands me to try it on. I take the dress from my mother and walk back to the dressing room, and look at the clock again. 20 minutes left. I look to the dress and discard it on the doors coat rack. It looks at me shamefully, and I feel inferior. How is it that I'm so bossy with other people but my family. I grab my jeans and dig through them to find my cell phone.

I look down at the texts messages and smile. God Bee is a muffin. Yeah, she can be bossy at times but Bee is like the sun to me. When I hang around her for too long it gets tiring and I begin to get annoyed. But when I don't get to see her I get sad as if a piece of me is gone, and I feel empty. When I'm around Bee I feel as if I winning a big race, or feel at home. I feel as if I'm cool, calm, and nothing is going to hurt me. Bee is just my happiness, my warmth, my strength. It's not that I get butterflies in my stomach; when I see her I'm okay. It's not like I'm in love with her though.
I close my attention on the text again. It reads "Burrito buddy, my dear. Thy mother and thy aunt have locked me away in.... a dressing room. Why I have to wear this crap, I not know but! Soon we shall embark on a quest to Hot topic.....see you soon butthead <(^~^)/"
I laugh. I laugh so hard I fall from my computer desk. 'What the heck Bee?' I get up from the floor and send Bee a quick "see you soon" and hop back to my computer.
"Alexander, honey are you okay I heard something loud then a bang!", I hear my mom yell.
"Yeah don't worry I was talking to myself then tripped on some dirty clothes that I'm totally going to wash later. Oh and uh mom, I'm going to Hot topic with Bee in a minute I'll be home at around 4:00 okay?" I yell back already trying to find an outfit to wear.
"Okay honey just don't fill up of fast food while you're out, I'm making tacos tonight.", she nagged as she started up the vacuum to clean the mess my dog made.
"Yeah, yeah I know.", I bark back now looking around for Titan, "C'mere Titan, C'mon boy.", I call out hearing tiny footsteps tink across the floor, "Aww that's a boy... who's my good boy who.......It's you! That's who! Now, who do you love...me or food?", Titan looks at me then turns towards the kitchen. He does it again, but this time walks to the kitchen where his food bowl lies, "Le gasp, well I feel so loved.", I say sarcastically as I grab my car keys from the ashtray making my way outside.
As I walk to my car and set my gaze to the many bumper stickers, I can't help but think of Bee. She's been acting weird lately, and I'm a little worried... I hop in my car, as the sweat smell of rust and smoke fills the air around me.
'Ahhh. I love this feeling.' I take out a box of lung killers out of my back pocket, grab the lighter from my glove compartment, and light up. I gam the keys in the ignition and pull out of the driveway. The trees pass as I inhale the last of my smoke, and throw it out the window -really hope no one saw that I do not have the money to pay fines right now- into a ditch. Today's going to get interesting, and the best part about that is I can enjoy it with Bumble Bee, Burrito Bee, or just Bee. Any Bee is a good bee, just as long as she's happy.
As I pull up at a red light I take my phone out revealing a text from Bee, think of the devil', I say to myself.

I look around as the smell of fast food fills the air. I get up, stretch, and pull out five bucks from my back pocket.
"Hey umm, may I get cinnamon pretzel bites with icing please?", I ask the guy behind the pretzel booth.
"Yeah dude, that'll be four fifty.", he says dumping some pretzels in a cup as he grabs an icing packet.
I place the five bucks on the counter and wait patiently, and look around the mall. My eyes keep roaming until I set my eyes on a service dog. 'Omgomgomg tis a dodge, no wait it's a service dog. It's okay to look at the dog but don't do anything else.' I tell myself.
"Here's your food, and your change sir.", The guy says, sitting down the food and change.
I look at him and smile, "Thank you, have a wonderful day.", I say rushing to a nearby sitting area.
'Wow Bee, you win for having the best social skills.' I tease. Hmm, I wonder when Alexander will be here... Might as well eat these.
I start eating my food and look around. I look towards the seafood restaurant and there fish tank that's in front of the restaurant. 'I wonder if they use the fish that are in the tank or not.....wait holy heck! I ate more than half of the pretzels, man I should save the rest for Alexander... Hmm now that I'm alone, I can think of...FANDOM.
Okay so Sirocewy is Sirosa and Chewy, and there's evidence saying that they could be together-married even-and the creators made that stuff happen then... Well there have been 3.5 moments between them, and they need to be at an 8.5 then we need 5 more moments...but there are only 4 seasons left, and the 3.5 happened in the 4 seasons sooo. I'm going to die... No wait in that other fandom 4 moments happened in 2 seasons so maybe there's hope. And maybe the-
"Holy duck nugget in a woodchipper!" I scream at the top of my lungs. My heart races with fear as I look behind me to see...Alexander. I sigh and roll my eyes, and calm down, "Alexander you...You, I can't deal with you anymore man." I say with a sigh
"I'm sorry I didn't know how deep in thought you were, please forgive- is that cinnamon pretzels," he says losing his train of thought. He tries to reach for them, but I slap his hand.
"Dude."
"Dudeit."
"Fine, here take them," I say getting a little annoyed.
"Thank you fair maiden," he says in a sing-song voice.
We sit in silence for about 5 minutes until Alexander stands up suddenly and throws the cup away. I get up stretch and we head to Hot Topic.
'HOLY COW THERE IS NEW FANDOM MERCH' I yell mentally. I start looking around at all the new merch while Alexander looks at pins and piercings. 'Okay so I have enough money to get 4 shirts, and 3 pairs of pants, but the pants here are unisex and that won't do soo.'
"Yo burrito buddy", I yell across the store looking at half off shirts.
"Ye bumble bee", I hear him yell back as a few customers smile, and start taking out their phones. 'Crap they're probably putting this on their blogs. Alexander walks over two small bags in hand.
"After this do you want to go with me to Kohl's so I can get some pants, then get something to eat?" I ask as I take two Sirocewy shirts.
"Yeah sure, but no food ma's making tacos tonight." He replies getting out his new piercings so he can switch out his old ones. I watch in amazement as he removes the two above his eyebrow, and his snake bites that distract from his cold lifeless lips-wait what, nevermind.
"Wow dude you look really different without your piercings... you almost look like a normal person...hehe hahaha.", I say as I snicker a little.
"Wow really funny. Now...hold up...okay what do you think?", he asks moving his hands in a "jazzy" motion referring to the piercings.
"You look like any other idiot who likes piercings.", I say rolling my eyes walking to the cashier as Alexander follows close behind.
"Hello, you look amazing today and I'd like these please.", I say to the cashier pulling out my cash.
"Oh..Thank you. You know you look pretty handsome yourself.", They say bagging my stuff. I look to the ground as I put my money on the counter; I want to say thanks for the compliment, but Alexander's here, and he'll question it.
As I think of how on earth to respond I feel Alexander push me aside and start putting them down. I want to stop but if I do he'll be suspicious and start asking questions. Alexander finally calms down and telling them off, we leave and decide to stop by a candle place before we leave.
We walk into this place called "smell good wax" and start looking. I start looking at really odd stuff called "water sweat" and "black and coco". I decide to find Alexander so we can leave. I call out about 2 times until I spot him.
"Hey man, what'cha got there?", I ask looking at a galaxy colored candle.
"Oh, I was thinking of buying this what do you think of the smell?", he replies with a question.
I smell the mysterious candle and to my surprise, it's pretty good, "Hey burrito buddy, what is this, and why does it smell like awesomeness?", I ask in awe of how amazing the candle is.
"Oh it's called existential crises, and it's the last one, and ima buy it!" he says with a little fire in his eyes. He buys the candle, we head back to his car, then we head to Kohls.
