Adora's POV.

"Adora, what are we doing at the mall?" Bow said as we enter the mall.

"Duh, we gotta find a suit for prom! I can't believe you finally asked Glimmer, what took you so long?" I said half-annoyed at the boy. 

"I- It wasn't easy okay??" He crossed his arms at me and all I could do was roll my eyes. We start looking around for a clothing store that sells suits. Suddenly Bow grabbed my arm and pointed at the dress on display. It was beautiful. It was a long satin maroon dress that showed too much skin for my liking. The straps were thin, and it was backless. 

"Why a suit though? Don't you wanna wear a dress?" Bow said pushing me towards the entrance of the store.

"Bow! no, I won't be able to pull it off," I told him as he starts asking for the saleslady. He ignores me and takes the dress from the saleslady.

"Thank you!" He says to the lady before turning to me and giving me the dress.

this is embarrassing. 

"Bitch you're Adora! you can definitely pull this off. Now go try it out!" He then again pushes me to the changing rooms.

"Bow- ughh, I'll let you know I'm a Jock? I work out daily?" I say stopping my steps to look at the excited boy. It's not that dresses weren't my thing but... I don't know? I never imagined myself wearing a dress, a backless one for fuck's sake. I was a masculine woman, that I'm sure of. So wearing that was completely out of my comfort zone.

"I know right! Why do you even work out if you won't show off that body? Now go try it on, they're selling suites on the other side. bye!" He rushes out leaving me with the dress. I look at the dress in hand...

It was in fact really pretty.

And I and Catra's theme was maroon...

I shrug off my shoulders and entered the fitting stall.

There's no escaping this now.

(tw// self harm scars.) 

I close the curtain and started stripping off my clothes. I slowly put on the dress careful not to break the fabric. Luckily since it was backless there was no zipper to zip. I fix the dress and finally looked in the mirror.

oh, wow. 

The dress hugged my body perfectly, the red complimented my skin, and I looked... pretty. But then I notice my arms, my scars were on display. Sometimes I regret what I've done to my body... now is 'sometimes.' I can't help but frown at them. The dress was lovely but many will surely be focused on my scars. 

"Adora! Are you done? let me see!" I suddenly flinched at the voice.

"Eh- It doesn't look nice. And the fabrics really itchy..." I shout from the stall.

"Adora- that's satin. Now come out!" 

"I'm lesbian!"

"Adora!" 

I sigh in defeat as I open the curtain and hesitantly walked out of the fitting room. I see Bow wearing a pink-ish cropped polo and gray trousers. He topped it off with a white blazer with gold fabric as the inner color and of course a black bow. 

"Bow! you look amazing!" I compliment the boy with a wide smile.

"Thank you. BUT OH MY GOD ADORA." He went around me and snickered.
