Dragons and Slayers (Sting x Reader)

Chapter 9: Sly Dragon Slayer

Your Pov:

I stood next to Sting at the cash register and waited for the toll to pop up. The older looking lady added the last article of clothing in to the bag and punched in some buttons on the register. "Your total is 98,700 jewels," She smiled. My mouth dropped, "Sting! Are you kidding!"

He shrugged, "You looked beautiful in them all so... Why not?" He pulled out his wallet.

I started to wave my hands in front of my, "Woah woah woah! I can't allow you to pay that much!"

He gave me a scary glace that put me in my place. I backed down, "Fine but I'm repaying you. One day or another."

The corner of his mouth twitched up into a smirk, "That's right." He handed the sweet lady the 200,000 jewels and grabbed all the bags, "Come on. We haven't gotten all day."

I nodded, "Okay..."

~*Flashback just earlier that day*~

Sting had to speak to some of the guild members before we could leave. I sat at the bar and talked to Yukino. She is the bar tender and the missions conductor. She was drying some glasses as we talked. We had a decent conversation, just small talk. Then I made the mistake and looked around the room for Sting. When I saw him I smiled lightly. "O~. You like Sting!" Yukino said lowly making sure no one else could hear. I blushed in embarrassment, "No. He's taking me out shopping and I wanted to make sure... Uh... that he was still occupied."

"Mhm..." She gave a dark smile, "I ship it."

"Wha- I thought that you two-"

"A couple?" She cut in, "yeah no. We tried it for a little while but we couldn't make it work. It's hard dating your good friends" -she paused for a moment then sighed- "I'm just glad we're still close."

I giggled, "Oh, I see."

"(Y/N)! You ready?" Lector's voice pulled my attention from Yukino. I looked over at the small red exceed next to Sting's feet. I smiled, "Yeah. Bye, Yukino. See you later." I got up and walked next to Sting towards the front door to the city.

"So where are we going?" I asked kicking a small rock down the street.

"To the store to get you clothes. I thought I already told you this..." Sting said.

I laughed, "What store, dummy?"

"Aye! Woman! Don't call the al-mighty Sting a dummy!" Lector shook his fist up at me.

I rolled my eyes playfully, "I was just joking."

"But I don't know... All of them if you want," Sting said normally still looking forward.

"I don't need a lot of clothing..." I trailed off.

Lector chuckled, "Well you need more than just one pair!"

"I agree." Sting added.

We walked into a larger store. It had dresses, skirts, shirts, and jeans. It was a women's apparel shop called Pretty Gals. An older lady sat behind the counter at the check out area. She smiled at us and said, "Welcome to Pretty Gals! What can we do for you?"

"Well we'r-" I was cut off by Sting. Can I ever finish what I want to say?

"She needs some new clothes," He pointed to me. The older lady clapped her hands together, "Oh goody!" She jumped out from the counter. She was extremely short and had her grey hair in a large bun. She ran over to me and grabbed my hand leading me to the other corner of the store where curtains lined up. She sat me down and closed the curtains as Sting was about to walk in, "No no no. You stay out there, young man."
