Vic's POV
Kellin dragged me into the mall and finally into a large store. The lights were soft and there was clothing everywhere. I turned to Kellin who's face was filled of awe. "What is this place?" I whispered. "It's called a department store." Kellin whispered in reply to my question. I scanned the aisles of clothes up and down. "It's...it's beautiful." I whispered before Kellin shushed me. "Shhhh, first a deep breath. Take it all in. Feel all those halogens warming your skin. Smell how they pump in pure oxygen. See, they care." Kellin said leading Vic to the suits.
A girl walked up to me with a perfume bottle and said, "Love?" I became flustered immediately and said, "Excuse me?" The girl laughed and said, "Love. The new fragrance from Chanel." I began to laugh and replied. "Oh....No thank you..." Kellin walked back over to me and put a tie on me. I began to protest but Kellin ignored it and kept tying the tie in a precise manner. "I know you're scared. Nevertheless, think of the people you want to impress. Swallow your pride for me. Just nod yes, and prepare...something's in the air."
I cut Kellin off by mumbling. "I think it's "Love"." Kellin jumped up and down. "Exactly!" He said grabbing some shirts off the shelf. "Here you'll become what you're supposed to be. You think you can't, but you can. Think of the guy you want most to be: Here's your chance to make it, so take it like a man." Kellin said grabbing some jackets for suits.
"What does he want? I'm not really sure. Why can't we leave things the way that they were? Why can I never say no to him? What's that smell?" I asked. A girl came up behind me with a cologne bottle. "Subtext by Calvin Klein." She tells me before walking off. A salesperson comes up to me with Kellin standing behind him and shirts in his hand. He holds up the first one. "That I don't like." I say in response.
He passes it off to another employee and holds up the next shirt. "That's kind of neat." He hands the shirt to Kells to hold. He then holds up the final shirt. "Guys who wear that get beat up on my street. Still I've come this far, I can't retreat in my shell. I'm in the hands of Kells! What the hell!" I said as the employee handed the shirt to Kellin. "Here you'll become what you're supposed to be. You think you can't, but you can. Think of the guy you want most to be: Here's your chance to make it so take it like a man." Kellin said pulling me into the dressing rooms and handing the clothes to an employee.
"God, I love shopping for guys!" Kellin said standing outside my door. "Okay, this is strange." I said as I changed. "Watching them change right before my eyes." Kellin said laughing. "Ew! Kells, don't watch me change." I said. He laughed at my childish antics. "Look at you striking a pose, your confidence grows! You bloom like a rose!" Kellin said clearly deep into his dream shopping world. "It's just clothes." I said trying to dismiss him.
"God, I love shopping for me." Kellin said. "Okay, this is nice." I said pulling on the suit jacket. "They walk in a two, they walk out a ten!" Kellin said in awe. "Is this the price?!" I said catching a glimpse of the tag on the jacket. Kellin laughed. "Don't worry. This is my treat; there's someone I'd like you to meet..." He said opening the door and turning me towards the full length mirror.
"Whoa." We both said in unison looking at myself in the mirror. "I look like Justin." I said amused. "Yeah...." Kellin said, clearly thinking of Justin. I looked over at him and said, "But it's just me." Kellin nodded. "That's the best part. The outside is new, but now it reflects what's already in you-couldn't change that if I wanted to. And I do not." He said smiling at me. "Thank you." I said smiling at him.
He held my hand and said, "No, thank you." I smiled at the slightly taller boy next to me. "This is no gift; it's payment in kind, 'cause you saw beyond all the blonde to my mind. Oh, we've got to buy this! What are you blind? You look hot!" Kellin said twirling me around. He turned to the employees and said, "Is he not hot?" They all agreed with Kellin on the fact that I looked hot.
"Here you'll become what you're supposed to be! You think you can't, but you can! Think of the guy you want most to be!" Kellin said as he pulled out his card to pay for my clothes. I remained standing in front of the mirror. "Not quite the guy I'da chose to be....but when he's standing so close to me...I kind of like his plan." I said before walking off to catch up with Kellin.
