"Juniper!" A female voice called. Juniper continued walking down the hallway to the person that called it. Amirah Belle.
Amirah's heels clicked against the floor as she quickened her pace to her friend, immediately capturing her inside of a hug. Amirah held on for dear life, while Juniper was suffocating slightly.
Amirah let go, holding the girl by her shoulders. Juniper realized Amirah was tearing up at this point.
"Hey, I'm still here." Juniper said, putting her hand atop one of hers. Amirah nodded repeatedly. "Not going down without a fight."
Amirah and Juniper interlocked arms and said goodbye to Mags, promising to meet up with her again soon. Amirah seemed pretty stiff, which Juniper pointed out to her. Amirah looked around, wanting to wait until they got to her dressing room.
After a few minutes, they finally arrived. When Juniper entered, she noticed the place had changed a lot from when she last was there- all those years ago. However, it kept the same aesthetic.
"Don't get mad. Snow had some regulations we had to follow this year for outfits. I know you won't like it. I tried my best, though." Amirah frowned. Juniper sighed.
"Show me." Juniper crossed her arms. "It can't be too bad, right?" Juniper whispered, hoping to herself. Amirah made a confusing noise, giving her mixed signals.
Amirah pulled the outfit off the rack. Juniper would have to wear a dark blue bra and a dark blue mini skirt. A golden fish net covered the entire outfit, but it was extremely thin and also completely see through. She stared at it with a blank expression.
She was wearing a bathing suit.
She blinked a few times, her arms still crossed- her body seemed frozen. She really hadn't been that exposed before.
"I'm sorry." Amirah apologized profusely. "Some of the boys have it bad, too. At least the net you have glows and sparkles...!" Amirah smiled, trying to show off the outfit. Juniper still didn't say a word.
"It's... worth a try." Juniper spoke hesitantly, stepping up onto small podium. Amirah cheered slightly in her head.
Once Juniper had the outfit on, she looked in the mirror. it fit very nice, but definitely needed a few changes- which Amirah Belle was already on top of. She knew exactly what to do.
First, she added golden flake accents to the top line of the bra. Though, she didn't touch the mini skirt. She didn't want it to attract any attention.
For the golden net cover up, she cut a slit into the bottom going all the way up to Juniper's hip. Allowing her to move more freely. She also cut the sleeves out completely, since Juniper complained about the net itching around her shoulders.
