Fancy Stores Intimidate Me

*Corey*

"Hey Corey, can I maybe possibly dye my hair?" I read a text I got from Rory out loud.

"What?" Elton laughs.

"Rory wants to know if she can dye her hair." I answer him, starting to text her back.

Not without me there - Me

Okay - Rory

I wonder where she got that question from.

I would have probably needed a parent's permission to do it anyways. Vic and I walked around a few other stores when we saw one called, Camille La Vie. It looked like a super fancy dress shop. I look over to Vic and smirk, "You thinking what I'm thinking?"

"We go in there, try on a lot of fancy clothes, and not buy anything?" He smiles. He can read a mind. I nod and we walk in. Right when we walk in we heard the loud 'Beep', but it was a lot louder than other stores so it scared me so bad, I backed up really fast and ended up landing into his chest. "You good there?" Vic laughed. I blushed and hid my face with my hands.

"Yea. This place is just intimidating." I laugh. You can feel the intimidation in this room and you can feel it weighing on your shoulders. The guy behind the desk was just the same. He looked up at us and raised and eyebrow.

"Can I help you two?" He asked with no emotion.

"We would like to try on your most exquisite wears." Vic says in a posh accent. It's hard for me not to laugh. I got my phone out and pretended to text, but instead I started to record. This is going to be too good to miss.

"I'm sorry, what was that?" The clerk asked Vic.

"I said I would enjoy to try on some of your most exquisite wears. You see, I am to be married to the women next to me, and we need your most exquisite wears." He said in the same accent. Where did he come up with the marriage thing? I should stick with it.

"Yes. We will need a total of three outfits. One for the ceremony, one for the reception, and another one for the reception just to piss everyone off that we have more money than them." I said in a matching posh accent. I can slowly feel all of the anxiety I get from being in this room slowly fade.

"Alright. Try on what you like, come and get me if you need any help." The clerk sighs. He's so not into it. Wait this worked? We're not getting kicked out? How did we get lucky? Vic must've thought the same thing because he looked over to me and shrugged.

"What should the first 'look' be?" He whispered to me. I thought about it for a sec.

"Whatever is the 80's-est." I laugh. He takes a while to process what I said and smiles. He nods and we both split into the different male and women sections. I immediately found a red dress that looked 80's enough. I nod to Vic and head to the changing rooms. As I was finishing putting it on I heard him ask,

"Ready to see how they look?"

"Yea!" We both walk out and I see him in an all white suit with a black button up under it. We let out laughs as we took pictures in the giant mirrors in front of us. We split up and decided to look for the most 'gothic' thing. I found a lacy black dress that covered up to my neck and changed. We both left the changing rooms and I saw him wearing a black suit with a blue flower-y shirt under it. I got out my phone while laughing and started to take more pics

"You look emo." He laughed at me.

"You look like a formal Pete Wentz. Dance dance your rude comments about my dress away." I retorted.
