When Magnets Touch

Some Simple Fun

Dr.Iplier's View

We stepped outside and looked around. The most interesting thing I saw was a pigeon eating a moldy piece of bread. Ok, maybe that wasn't interesting. Henrick took my hand into his and started walking down the sidewalk and I followed with a smile as I looked down at him.

"How about we head into a clothing store? There might be something interesting?" Henrick suggested to me.

"That would be nice. I was going to look for a new tie, there's going to be another meeting that I signed up for." I was honestly excited to go shopping.

I sipped from my coffee as Henrick pointed at an H&M store. "How about we go there?" He looked up at me with a small smile.

"Yeah, sounds good." I smiled back and we walked across the street to the H&M store.

Once we entered, I was overwhelmed by all of the items being sold in the store. How could one store have so many different things? It was so cool to see all of the different varieties of clothing.

"How about we go pick out a tie for you?" Henrick looked up at me with a wide smile.

I smiled back kindly. "Of course." We started walking side by side to the men's section to find a tie for me.

Once we finally reached the tie section, I couldn't choose what tie to look at first. I do have to admit, I do admire a well crafted tie. Henrick started at a round table full of navy blue colored ties and started examining them. I joined him, resting a hand on to his back. He looked up at me with a small blush on his face. I couldn't tell if that was from the cold air or because of my hand, so I just kept my hand on his back. I spotted a dark purple tie with small white designs on it. My mind decided to pick it up. The tie was soft like silk and the seems and stitches were well placed and definitely made by a skilled craftsman.

"Do like that one? I can definitely imagine you in it, purple really would suit you." Henrick asked, looking towards me. I saw a sleek looking tie in his hands, a deep red. Just imagining it on him seemed pleasurable. Shit! Stop thinking of that kind of stuff, Iplier!

"Yeah, yeah. Thanks. You know," I gestured to the tie he was holding. "that would look fascinating on you."

He gave a sweet small smile and sighed, looking down at the red tie. "I'm not sure, I'm more for fun designs on myself. Better than looking tired and serious and stuff, I feel something that pops would make me come off as happier.

I was shocked at his statement. Why should he even give the smallest damn about how he comes off as a person. Really? Well, I guess I can't really say anything about it, so u nodded politely. "Well, whatever you like on yourself. I'm not really sure if I'm going to get this one, maybe another day." I said, neatly folding back up the tie and setting in back down in its pile.

"Alrighty. Where do you want to go next? I was thinking maybe Macy's? That seems like a cool store."

"Yeah, that does sound cool." I made sure to give a smile as Henrick folded the dark red tie up and started walking out as I followed.

Yet another opportunity missed to possibly tickle his heart with passion. Wait wait, that sounds weird. Oh well, maybe I could at least help him find an outfit he likes.

When can I get the courage?

Author's Notes
I am so sorry for the long hiatus. I guess I came back to Wattpad with a stronger passion for literature. Any-hoot, sorry. And I will be continuing this since I kind of like how it's going.
Toodles!
