Kid Ritz POV:


Ven: "No... this is too light."

He hands a shirt back to a sales assistant as I stand for him in a boutique.

Assistant: "How about this one, sir."

Ven holds the shirt up to my wrist and frowns.

Ven: "Hmm... I don't know... I think it's too dark. What do you think, Velv?"

Velvet walks over and inspects the shirt. I look at O, and she gives me a look that perfectly emulates my feelings.

I love Ven dearly, but shopping with the twins is a killer. They pick out shirts in shades that look nearly identical to me and can't decide what looks better. It's killing me just to stand here and do nothing for forever... but if Ven thinks it's necessary, I won't complain.

Kid Ritz: *O... O... Orchid.*

Orchid: *W H A T?*

Kid Ritz: *... h i.*

She rolls her eyes at me as Velv holds up a shirt to her back.

Velv: "Now, Ven, see this stitching? It's almost EXACTLY the stitching I want for her top for M's wedding. But, if you look closely, I HATE this stitch along the shoulder."

Ven: "Oh, definitely. It's an eyesore. Don't you agree?"

He shows the assistant, who just nods. I don't think she gives a crap about stitches, as do I or Orchid. I try not to fall asleep standing up as the twins continue doing whatever they do.

Finally, they pick out the clothes we'll wear for the weddings, and we're allowed to leave.

Ven: "Text me once the boots come in, and we can arrange a day to bedazzle."

Velv: "I've already got my fashion house on it. They'll have it done a week before M's wedding."

Ven: "Okay, perf. What about the crystal shoes?"

Velv: "I've also put them to work on it. We've got those orders in..."

They keep talking about important fashion wedding stuff as Orchid and I take a seat on the curb.

Orchid: "I'm hungry."

Kid Ritz: "Oh, me too. I'm ravenous."

Orchid: "That felt like forty years of my life was cut off."

Kid Ritz: "I know. I was shook we had to do it today."

Orchid: 'I know I didn't drink anything but juice last night, but I woke up feeling like I blacked out."

Kid Ritz: "I felt the same way. I think it's because we had to wake up before noon after such a big day yesterday."

We sit sadly on the curb until the twins are done. I hug Orchid before I climb into the car with Ven.

Ven: "Thank you for waiting and being patient. I am sure it wasn't the easiest thing to do."

Kid Ritz: "It's okay. Orchid and I know you'll have us look good. It's good that it was just us; imagine how bored Fred would have been."

Ven: "I won't have to imagine. Rollie's asked me to accompany them tomorrow so he and Fred can know what Velv wants for the wedding. He's getting everything tailored since he's so tall."

Kid Ritz: "Oh, boy. I'm glad you and Velv are so detailed. I don't know the first thing about stitches and colors."

Ven: "It was difficult. I couldn't tell which of the colors for your shirt would pair better with your black boots: Dark Purple Potion 002 or Dark Purple Potion 002.5."
