Once we get there a guy catches us trying to leave the boat
"Okay go go go go!" I yell
"Come on." John b says helping me down to the dock
"Excuse me!" We yell as we run down the dock
"Comin' in hot!" John B yells
"Sorry!" I yell to the people we passWe finally make it far enough to stop running
"Man I need to work out more" I say catching my breath. I look down at our clothes
"Oh my God. We're disgusting." I groan
"What?" He asks confused
"We can not and will mor get into the archives looking like this" I tell him
"Why not?" John B asks.
"I promise you they will not let us in looking like we crawled out of a swamp" I tell him
"Okay fine" John B agrees with me and we start walking through town looking for a shop
"What about this store? Let's go shopping here." I tell him
"Absolutely not" John B says trying to walk away
"No no no JB. I think we've arrived." I smile walking in
"Stella you of all people should understand.
This is like an organ with the wrong blood type.
It doesn't work" John B tells me
"You are so dramatic" I tell him
"No I'm not." He try's to defend himself
"What about cashmere?" I ask
"Oh my God. Have you seen this shirt? It's $190!" John b says
"Don't worry JB. I'll sugar mama you." I wink
"Sugar mama?" John B asks
"What about some glasses? Little Clark Kent action." I say as I put some on him
"Star you don't understand. I don't want anything from here" John B tells me
"Can I help?" The guy asks me
"Yes. Yes you may Mr..." I say trailing off waiting for him to finish
"Mr. Ike" the man tells me
"Ike? Stella." I shake his hand then put it on John b
"Jonathan." I smile
"John" he tells the man
"My friend Jonathan here needs all the help he can get" I tell him
"I can see that." He says looking John b up and down
"Star no I'm not doing it" John b says
"JB listen these are my people so come on" I smirk
"Ha. Ha. Very funny" he says"Aww! You look like you're ready for the middle school dance." I say as John b comes out of the dressing room
"I look like I got kicked out of the barbershop quartet." He says
"Mr. Ike what about seersucker?" I ask him
"I'm not wearing seersucker." John b says
"Excellent choice miss Stella" Ike says
"Ooo and maybe a pink button-down some bucks?" I add
"Bucks? What's a buck?" John B asks me
"I'll get a pair" Ike tells me
"Shh. Just accept your fate." I tell John b"Nope not comin' out" John B says after I knocked on his door
"Why not?" I ask him
"Because you're probably gonna buy it or something?" John B tells me
"Well you're not wrong." I say as I open the door to see John b checking himself out
"Are you checking yourself out?" I ask laughing
"No I'm not! Stop." John B says pulling his pants up
"Relax John B. Not like I've never seen a boy in underwear before" I tell him and he stares wide eye
"I have a brother. Get your head out of the gutter." I tell him
"Yeah." He says putting the jacket on
"I like that" I smile
"Oh man." John b says looking at himself in the mirror
"Pull your fly up." I tell him
"Got it." He says zipping it up
"Honestly if somebody saw me in this..." he starts to say
"They'd roast the shit out of you" I finish
"Yeah" he says
"It's a good thing we're on a secret mission so we have to assume another identity. In fact we probably shouldn't even be using our real names" I tell him
"Yeah so we need aliases. What are you thinkin'?" John B asks me
"Mmm...Vlad... from Vienna. What's mine?" I ask him
"Okay. Uh Valerie from Quebec" John B says
"Mm! Valerie du Québec?" I say
(Valerie from Quebec)
"Parlez-vous français?" John B asks.
(You speak French)
"Oui, monsieur. Et toi?" I ask him
(Yes sir, do you)
"No no that's all I got" John b laughs
"C'est dommage" I say
(Such a shame)
"Yeah don't know what you said" he tells me
"Anyway since you got to dress ne I get to dress you." He tells me
"Bring it on" I challenge him
"Wow. It looks great." John b says as I walk out in a red dress
"It's like a soccer mom's first outing." He adds
The next dress was a lilac color but I have no clue how to put it on so I walk out all tangled.
"How do I put this on?" I ask
"Is that a lavender or plum?" John B asks me
I try on a peach dress that had a tie around the waist.
"This dress comes with built-in nunchucks." I laugh as I swing them around.
"Aah. No." Kohn b says
I give him a thumbs down as well as sticking my tongue at him
I try on a white and green striped dress that I actually loved and walk out
"Wow. You look..." he says as I spin around
"I mean you... you clean up nice Val." John b says as I walk up to him
"You have a way with words Vlad" I tease him
"Um.." John B says then grabs his jacket
"So,do we have a winner?" I ask
"I think we have a winner." John B says putting his jacket on and I go and fix his collar for him
"Can I ask you something? Why did you come? Didn't you have plans with the kooks today?" He asks me
"To finish the mission" I answer
"No for real" John B says
"Because I am 16 and I already know what I'm going to do for the rest of my life. I feel like if I don't fully get out of the bubble wrap now, I won't ever get out" I tell him
"Now come on we have a job to finish plus it's not open all night" I tell him
