Integrity & Melancholy

Floyd and Mozard

"How about this one?" Chris holds up a black shirt with a striped pocket by the chest and looks at Malli with a raised eyebrow.

"No, that's way too... boring." Malli sighs, sitting onto her bed and scanning over all the clothing beside her.

"Since when don't you like boring?" Chris asks with a small smile, tugging her brown hair behind her ear, going back to rummaging around her friends closet.

"Since... I don't know. Since I want to impress that guy." Malli lets herself fall onto her back.

Her arm falls onto a piece of fabric and she picks it over her head, looking at the bright teal coloured tank top.

"What about this one?" Malli asks, looking over at Chris who has her arms crossed.

Chris snatches the fabric out of Mallis hands and holds it in front of her.

Malli leans up her elbows and looks at her friend, waiting for a reaction. Chris looks dumbfounded at her friend and turns the shirt around to show Malli the back of it.

"Sure, If you want be seem like a five year old." Chris counters, throwing the shirt at her friend.

Malli catches it and almost starts breaking into laughter when she sees Spongebob and Patrick holding hands at the bottom of the back of the shirt.

"Nevermind then."

"Hey try this on." Chris throws another shirt at Malli's face. Malli pulls it over her head and stands up, looking at the mirror.

She was wearing a black top that was distressed around her arms and cut pretty short so it revealed a bit of her skin around her stomach.

"You can see my stomach though." She complains. "And I have nothing to pair this with anyway." Malli looks down at herself, feeling way too anxious about meeting Sebastian again today.

"You just lack imagination and so what your stomach is showing? You're getting a coffee with a hot guy, not going to church." Chris counters, Going to the bed and grabbing a pair of light washed out and distressed, mid waisted jeans and gives them to Malli who holds them in front of her legs.

Chris unwrapped her grey scarf from herself and slings it over Malli's shoulders. She studies herself in the mirror before deciding that this wasn't that bad of a look.

"Alright. I might like this." Malli smiles at her friend through the floor length mirror and Chris looks proudly at her friend.

-

"He's not going to show up. Really we should just leave now and call it a day." Malli plays anxiously with the ends of her hair.

"We are literally 10 minutes early." Chris laughs at her. She looks behind Malli and spots Sebastian walking over the street, heading straight towards them.

"But-"

"No but's. He's here, have fun and call me after, okey. Don't die!" Chris calls over her shoulder walking towards Sebastian and with a grin, pats his shoulder, continuing walking away while Sebastian stops, with a small smile, right in front of Malli.

She smiles and nods at him, suddenly wanting to change her outfit.

No, wait.

She wants to change her entire being.

That's more accurate.

"You look nice." Sebastian smiles down at Malli, Tucking his hands into his pockets. He was dressed in a white T with a black coat and simple blue jeans. His dark hair almost looks messy, but in a good way, like he didn't want to seem too put together.
