Jera collided with another customer as she made her way through the store. “Excuse me.” she said, as a tall man brushed passed her, speaking unnecessarily loudly into a cell phone trying to decide between bath beads or bath salts.
“Kayla?” she called out to her friend over the bustling shoppers. She glanced around the Bath and Body Works for her friend’s signature red hair. She then felt a hand close around her wrist, turning her in the opposite direction.
“You gotta smell this!” It was Kayla, she always insisted on Jera smelling every new scent she discovered, including the bad ones. Fortunately for Jera, it was just a honey scented candle with rose petals layered into it. “Wouldn’t this be great for when you’re taking a bath?”
At those words, Jera sighed, recalling the sweet intoxication of hot, foamed water surrounding her body with pleasing scents filling the air. “Mmm, baths.” Her eyes drifted shut for a short moment as she dwelled on the sensations. The truth was that Jera hadn’t taken a bath for a long time now, and it was all thanks to horror movies. She used to love taking a nice steaming hot bubble bath with candles surrounding her while she smelled the scented water she made for herself in a dim lighted bathroom, with soft, heavy metal rock bands and R&B playing in the background.
But she was just too scared of baths now. Afraid that an arm might come out of the faucet and strangle her to death or a deep underground world would pull her under the surface and drown her. That was it, she was never to take a bath ever again no matter how much she missed it.
As her eyes reopened, they drifted to the side and landed on Kayla’s friend who had tagged along. His eyes were locked on hers for a moment, she suddenly felt very self-conscious and looked away. Though she slowly looked back as he broke his gaze, becoming very interested in a certain product, grabbing it off the shelf quickly and examining it to avert his eyes.
Kayla had been dating Gerard’s best friend Frank for a while now and, being the holiday season, Gerard had come along to help pick things out that Frank would like. However, they had chosen to go to the mall on the busiest shopping day of the year, Christmas Eve. And on top of that, Kayla had been jumping into just about every store that had ‘called to her’.
Just then, Jera was dragged further into the store by Kayla who had just spotted something she just had to have. While Kayla looked over her new find, Jera’s eyes drifted back to Gerard. She began thinking about all the times they had shared together, then remembered that there were no such times. She just didn’t like him, she wondered if it was because of his all black attire, or his dark black hair that would fall into his eyes, ‘I mean come on kid get a haircut’ she also thought to herself. Or maybe it was that god damn eyeliner he would insist on putting on everyday.
Jera herself was just a plain girl, she didn’t fit into and didn’t want to picture herself in any certain group.
All of a sudden she found herself give out a small laugh while looking at Gerard. He was testing out body sprays, most likely for women, and sprayed one accidentally in the direction of his face. From the look he was giving, some of the spray must have entered his mouth. He put the spray back, walked away from it and bumped into an old lady with a cane. He grabbed her cane to help steady her but all that caused was for the old lady to hit him with it.
‘God he’s cute’ Jera could not believe she had just thought that.
It had been two days since the whole shopping craze at the mall and Jera was unpacking from her stay at Kayla’s house. She had spent a couple of nights at her friend’s because her parents had gone to Florida to see relatives for the holidays.
Jera was in her room putting away her clothes when she heard someone banging on the front door and ringing the door bell.
She looked out her bedroom window and saw that it was Gerard, ‘what the…’ she couldn’t understand why he of all people was standing right outside her house. She quickly ran to the front door and opened it.
“What?”
“Hey, I need to use your… bathroom” Gerard said as he rushed right past Jera.
Jera’s house wasn’t big so Gerard had no problem seeing the bathroom right in front of him.
“What’s with the backpack?” she asked.
Gerard’s muffled voice from behind the bathroom door answered back, “uh, my…for my comic books.”
Jera didn’t have the energy to ask any more questions, she had hardly slept over at Kayla’s house so she plopped down on her family’s sofa and watched TV.
