A new life (a blackveilbrides fanfic)

changing clothes

he looked at me, “no silly, now we’re shopping for you” oh I sighed, I didn’t much like shopping, when it was just my mum and me I never used to get anything,  I always said that I didn’t like whatever I had tried on, I just didn’t want her to spend any money, we didn’t have a lot, “CC I…I don’t want any new clothes,” which was a lie “liar!” said CC and he dragged me into the store, “right we will split up okay? You go and find something you like, and I’ll find something that will look good on you and we will meet back here in 10 minutes okay? Right the one with the most clothes at the end wins!” he ran of, I laughed and then walked around the shop, I found a few pieces that I liked, a top with stars on it, another top with paint running down it, and in the corner of the shop I found a dress, it was made of black silk and it trailed down to the floor, it was one shoulder and it had ruffles on the sleeve, it was completely plain after that, just flowing effortlessly to the floor, I stood in awe for ages, just looking at the mannequin, I quickly remembered the game and I ran to the sale rack pulling out a 5 dollar plain white t-shirt, I looked back at the dress, It was far to expensive, I looked away and then walked back to our meeting place, I watched as Christian came bounding over to me, a shopping basket over flowing with clothes in his arms, he looked at me, and my empty arms with nothing but a shirt in them, he sighed, “you win” I said quietly, hmm he said, “I don’t think you understood the game?” he walked me to the changing rooms and gave me the clothes, “now try it all on, I want to see it all, okay?” I sighed dramatically and went into the changing room, locking the door behind me, I tried on t-shirt after t-shirt, pretending not to like any of them, but I loved them all, they were exactly my style, I knew that I was hurting CC by saying no to them, but I wouldn’t let him waste money on me, the last thing in the basket was a pair of jeans, dyed red, I loved them, I looked really cool, but I sunk my face and showed CC, he was beginning to catch on to my lies, “hmm, you know what you may not like it but I love it all, I may just buy it all for myself”, I looked at him, he was being serious, he was going to buy it all whether I liked it or not, I walked back into the room, but he called for me to stop “there just one more thing I want you to try on” I had tried on pretty much the entire store, I had no idea what else there could be. I waited, CC came back carrying in the dress, the beautiful, expensive silk dress, my heart stopped, “no” I said coldly his face fell, “Don’t you like it?” I struggled to keep my composer, no I tried to say just say no I told myself, “yes” came the answer, I swore at myself, such an idiot, he looked confused, “why not then?” “its to much” I said simply, he sighed, “at least try it on” he said handing me the dress and blocking my exit, I turned around slamming the door in his face,
