Trying Out
(Icing On the Cake!)

"Alright, now. Why don't you turn around slowly so I can make sure you have it on properly?" Wu Sanxing asked calmly, but Wu Xie could hear his uncle's voice teasing him.

Wu Xie let out a long sighed closely followed by a low string of curses, just low enough for his uncle not to hear, but PangZi heard it perfectly. PangZi stood inside the entryway leaning against the wall with his arms crossed over his chest and a mixed look of disgust and confusion fluttering across his face.

Wu Xie spun quickly, the skirt flying out and up causing him to place his hands down.

"No, Wu Xie... slowly," Wu Sanxing teased more openly causing Wu Xie to huff.

"Sansu!" Wu Xie exclaimed and realized that the white button up shirt was more constricted than he noticed.

Why did he have to try the uniform for a school he wasn't even sure he was going to attend, for a plan he wasn't sure he was going to follow through with, it was beginning to feel like a bad idea.

"Tian Zhen... did you shave your legs?" PangZi finally questioned, the obvious confusion blooming openly across his face.

Wu Xie's head snapped towards his friend, his dark brown hair tickling his forehead in his sudden movement. Wu Sanxing simply snickered as he rose from his seat already knowing the answer making Wu Xie go red with embarrassment.

"No... well—I didn't shave them." Wu Xie's cheeks flushed a deeper shade of red as he tried to tug his short black skirt, his eyes dropping on his knee.

PangZi cocked his head back at his best friends answer, "Then what did you do? Where did the hair on your legs go?"

Wu Sanxing was chuckling merrily against the wall between the two teens already knowing the answer seeing as he supplied the product of destruction.

"It's some hair removal stuff..." Wu Xie said softly, "It's called sheet or something?"

"It's called Veet Xiao Xie," Wu Sanxing helpfully corrected him.

"Yeah, well, anyways, it gets rid of the hair. I mean, it might smell like a bad perm, but it gets the job done." Wu Xie dropped his shoulders suddenly thinking this was the worst idea he had ever come up with.

"Tian Zhen," PangZi took a deep breath and asked, "Where on earth did you use that thing?"

Wu Xie's eyes turned to slits with his glare, his arms shooting down rigidly by his side while Wu Sanxing stifled the laughter that was itching at the back of his throat.

"My legs and under arms! That's all! Why you!" Wu Xie bowed his head hoping that it would hide the blush on his face.

PangZi shrugged lightly eyeing Wu Xie suspiciously, "I just want to make sure you didn't get carried away or anything."

Wu Sanxing appeared in the doorway with a box in his hand, the both of them didn't even noticed he had disappeared, "I think it's time to put the icing on the cake."

Wu Xie turned around quickly, his skirt fluttering up in the air causing his hands to shoot down and yank it back down over his boxers.

PangZi stayed where he was—leaning tensely in the doorway as he eyed the box more wearily as the seconds ticked by, expecting the unexpected with Wu Sanxing unpredictable idea. Wu Sanxing flipped the top off the box letting it clatter to the floor, a long dark brown wig being withdrawn carefully.

"What's wrong with my hair!?" Wu Xie reached up and tugged at his short unruly dark brown locks in desperation.

"Ah... so, that was the icing on the cake..." PangZi muttered, almost laughing out loud.

Wu Xie turned to fix his glare on his best friend only to have Wu Sanxing placed the wig on his head. The wig stretched down to Wu Xie's small back, the hair light and flowing, making Wu Sanxing simply double over in delighted laugh.

PangZi couldn't even stifle his sputtered laugh—that made its way out of his lips as he looked at the confused dark brown hair teens, with his wig askew, and his bright brown eyes looking around as if he were a lost puppy.

Wu Xie growled under his breath, ripping the wig from his head and tossing it to the ground, "Okay, that's it, I've had enough!" he instantly declared.

Wu Sanxing was still laughing his lungs out, while PangZi just raised his left eyebrows in questions.

"I quit! Easy as that," Wu Xie stated angrily.

"Oh, I don't think so..."

Wu Xie and PangZi finally gave Wu Sanxing their attention, the man had straightened his posture and attitude—no longer laughing—giving Wu Xie a serious look.

"Why the hell not?" Wu Xie glared, looking less menacing than he realized—he was still in his schoolgirl uniform. Looking more adorable.

"Well, I took you seriously, I already transferred you and that outfit was isn't just for trying it out. It's for real, Xiao Xie."

Wu Xie couldn't help but scream inappropriate words at his Sansu while his best friend couldn't help but find the entire situation hilarious.
