Flower boy

14. Shopping

Georges POV.

The first thing I did when I woke up was get dressed, eat a quick breakfast and head on over to sapnaps place as quickly as possible.

Getting up on my bike I checked the time. It was about 11:30 am so I'd probably be there at 12 if nothing occasionally happened on the bike ride. So quickly I hopped on my bike and started biking towards town.

Eating my breakfast while I was on my bike with one hand and steering with the other one I looked around. The town was pretty dead at this time, some shops had started to open but it usually was the most busy around noon.

I used my bike because it was the easiest to use. We had horses but we only used them for special equations. Besides, I was not too good at horse riding.

Finally I arrived at sapnaps house and locked my bike. I walked up to the door and knocked. The door opened and inside was Sapnap standing. "George? What are you doing here?", he yawned. He was very much not fully awake yet.

"I wanted to talk about the ball with you", I explained as I stepped inside. He stretched out his arms and we started walking towards his room. "Okay so what about the ball?", he asked me.

I started explaining my situation about my parents that have been trying to set me up with some form of princess over the last few months. "And now they're hosting this ball to let me try and find someone. Just if i dont they will pick", i told him.

He raised an eyebrow at me. "Do you have a particular reason that you don't want to marry any of these girls?", he asked.

I took a deep breath. "Okay so, me and Clay kissed yesterday", I ended up saying. His face immediately lit up in a cocky smile. "How could I have guessed? Well guess what, you're not the only one who has a boyfriend", he said.

"Let me guess Karl?", I knew it. His cheeks turned a bit pink and he nodded. He told me about how they ended up together and I thought it was funny they first kissed the same day he left my place.

"But also i wanted to tell you, i really dont wanna wear a suit to the ball. Its just really fuckin boring", i added. Sapnap looked like he was thinking of something. Then he immediately lit up like he had gotten the idea of a lifetime.

"what if..we all wore dresses to the ball?", he said and looked at me. I just looked back at him. "That is actually one of the smartest things that has came out of your mouth in a while"

We started discussing what type of dresses to wear. "I know this really nice tailor in town, maybe we could get Karl and Clay and we could all look together?", he suggested.

We agreed on that and I got my bike and started biking towards Clay's house. After a bit of biking I finally could see his little cottage far in the distance. I got off my bike and knocked on the door.

"Oh hi George, what are you doing here?", Drista opened the door and looked at me. "I was just looking for Clay, is he home?", i asked her.

"Oh yeah he is. Come in", she walked inside and I could hear her yell 'Clay! George is here to see you!'. I heard Clay quickly climbing down his little ladder up to the loft. It didn't take long before he was in the living room in front of me.

"Heya George! How are you?", he smiled at me. "I'm doing fine, but I wanted to ask you something", I told him. I started explaining about my parents hosting the ball and I could bring someone if I wanted too.

"So me and my cousin Sapnap are gonna go look for something to wear, Sapnaps friend Karl is coming too", i didnt want to risk outing Sapnap incase Clays mom or sister were homophobic. "Sure! id love to come, so shall we go then?", we walked to the door and went outside.

"I biked here so i think you're gonna have to sit behind me so we can go two on the bike", i swung my leg over the bicycle seat. Clay sat behind me still having his feet on the ground. He wrapped his arms around my waist making my heart flutter.

I pushed the bicycle forward with my feet and now we were biking pretty smoothly. Clay tried to shift his position one time which concluded to us almost falling off. We biked peacefully with us chit chatting a little bit while we rode the bike.

Finally we came to town and we both hopped off. I parked my bike and we went looking for Karl and Sapnap. Finally we found them standing outside the tailor's shop. "Hey guys", we went up to them. I introduced Clay to Sapnap and Karl, while Sapnap introduced me and Clay to Karl.

After introducing everyone to everyone we all went inside to the tailors shop. Being met by tons of different types of clothing on display, ribbons and buttons available to buy and lots of fabric.

"Hi! Is there anything you would like some help with?", a girl with pink hair approached us. She looked very nice. "Yeah, so we're going to a ball but instead of suits we were gonna wear dresses, any advice?", I asked her.

Her face lit up in a smile immediately. "Ohh this is the moment i've been waiting for! I'll be right back!", she rushed to the back and came out with three sketchbooks. "These are all my different dress sketches, i think we can find something you all like", she smiled a warm smile.

First she started with showing us her most popular dresses. "Of course we could do some color changes and change the fabric to your liking just so you're aware", she explained and continued to flip through the book.

Nothing in particular caught my eye so i guess we were gonna stay here a while
