Backstory

Rose and I met a few months ago on a Gaultier fashion show. I had heard of her name before, being interested in French designers, how could I not? I had written many pieces of her I the papers after her popularity in the 90s. We made small talk before the show started and discussed what we thought of the garments when they were presented.

She used her hands a lot while explaining the 'visual experience' the show was giving. She was utterly adorable. There was a moment when a gown so beautiful, that Rose took my hand out of shock and couldn't look away from the model. The passion this woman held for fashion was truly remarkable. It felt oddly right to have her hand on mine, almost perfect. She kept it there for the whole rest of the show, squeezing it every time a garment she really liked walked out.

Eventually, the show came to an end, and I had to say goodbye to the lovely woman standing in front of me. I took out my bag and reached for a box I always keep with me. Inside the box are a stack of rectangle cards, all decorated with a drawn on ribbon. I gave the card to her before I change my mind. She took it with a slightly confused face. When she flipped the card over, a red tint started to show on her cheeks, she was blushing.

This adorable woman in front of me started to add my number to her phone. She paused after putting in the number. "What may I call you?" This was her polite was of asking my name, my heart did a jump for her well mannered way to speak. "I'm y/n l/n"

"Lovely to meet you y/n, I'm Rose Weil."

As time progressed, so did our friendship. We never moved past that stage though, which saddened me. I've always felt more for her than just friendship, even when I wrote about her work. The article was sadly not as famous at the other works I've done, but it's one of a few one that has brought a smile to my lips.

End of backstory

I'm now on my way to some woman named 'Debbie's house. Rose called me and said she needed help with a design and maybe a favor. I'd do anything for Rose, but I couldn't help but to wonder what she was doing at another woman's house. They weren't sleeping? Right? No, I can't think like that. Lucky for me, this Debbie woman lived quite close to my apartment.

Pulling up to the driveway, I could see the massive house located beside it. Whoever this woman was, was competition. Even the front door looked expensive. I knocked on it and heard the echo make its way through the building. The woman who opened was at least a few inches taller than me, it intimidated me immensely. Her blonde hair looked rough, yet good, like something you'd see on a punk runway. She had this really smokey eye makeup making it hard to see her eyes, but I wasn't very focused on her eyes. The gum she was chewing kept making its appearance giving her a 'Do something about it' look. If this was my competition, I was fucked. (and not the good kind)

"Y/n?" The woman said, asking for confirmation. Decided it's better to keep your enemies closer as it's the saying, I put my hand forward and nodded. "Debbie?" I asked. The woman raised her eyebrows and smiled as if she was about to laugh. She took my hand. "Lou, pleased to meet yah." And with that she walked out of the way to let me enter.

The house was huge, tall roof and a bunch of rooms. In the middle of it were a bunch of chairs and sofas. A big 3D printer stood in a corner as well. But the one thing my eyes caught onto, was Rose Weil, sitting by a sewing machine with small pins in between her lips. She hadn't noticed me yet, her focus being on her work. "Like the place?" Lou suddenly asked. I take another look around and then nod. "Bet the view is amazing" I breathe out looking back at Rose. Lou side smiles a little, lowering her voice. "I bet yours already is though, isn't is?"
