Chapter Three

After Allura and Pidge got to the mall they found a small dingy vintage looking shop run by an old somewhat human-looking woman.
"Hello there how may I help you two?" The woman asked with a kind smile.

"Oh hello there ma'am, my friend here" Allura nudged pidge closer to the front desk "needs a dress for a party, formal of course. Do you think you might have any in her size?" Allura inquired. As the woman pointed to a section of dresses for them to try on Pidge chose the most modest ones and headed into the dressing room. "So how do you feel about the Galra empire?" Allura asked trying to be nonchalant.

"Oh well, I remember when my grandmother ran this shop and she told me stories of before the Galra took over and how wonderful it was..." she trailed off. After being lost in thought for a moment she returned her gaze to Allura. "I-I'd just like to see it, grandma spoke so highly of it," she spoke, dazed a bit by memory. After a few looks around to make sure no Galra were around Allura spoke in a hushed whisper.

"It's very nice to meet you, ma'am, I am princess Allura of Altea and I've created a resistance against Zarcon, and though you will be a small addition everything counts, so would you be interested in joining the Voltron alliance?" as the woman plastered a huge hopeful smile on her face she nodded repeatedly, and they exchanged a handshake. "Pidge!?" Allura called to the paladin. "are you alright in there its been quite a while!?" she hollered once again.

"Ehm, I can't figure out how these sleeves work!" Pidge she yelped followed with a thud "Its okay I just tripped, could you help me please!" Allura sighed quite amused and the old woman let out a small delicate chuckle. After Allura helping her with a few dresses, creating somewhat of a fashion show they finally found one that both looked good and pidge could put it on herself.

"We'll take this one, but unfortunately we don't have any gac..." Allura elucidated.
"Oh don't worry you two are already working quite hard." she winked "This is on me!" the old woman ensured. as the two girls said their thank yous and goodbyes they headed back to the pod from which they came.

--------------

As the two ladies made it back to the castle of lions Allura hurried Pidge to her room so she could try out some makeup on her.

"Allura I haven't even eaten!" Pidge shouted as Allura came to a sudden stop.

"I guess it is late, but I really want to get this done, so eat quickly!" Pidge handed Allura the bag with her dress in it and hurried to the kitchen where hopefully Hunk was to make her a meal out of the flavorless goo. As expected Hunk was in the kitchen, but not alone Lance was helping Hunk with something in there looking bored out of his mind.

"Lance pass me the whisk please," Hunk ordered with a strict tone yet keeping his friendly vibe. Lance reluctantly handed Hunk the whisk.

"What are you two doing?" Pidge asked cocking her head to the side.

"Oh hey, pidge you're finally back! Uh, we're making some lunch." Hunk replied.

"Jeez I've been gone THAT long, better hurry I haven't eaten all day and Allura is already on my quiznack." Pidge sighed. Hearing that lance perked up.

"You know... If you help it'll be done faster!" he said trying to get out of work.

"Oh ok she can help if she wants but you are too Lance, you ain't slick." hunk replied.

"Ugh, you sound like my mom." Lance groaned. as the three messed around some more, starting somewhat of a food fight halfway through they finally finished making lunch perfect as hunk instructed and sitting down to eat. As pidge was finishing her food Allura stormed in.

"Pidge! You said you'd eat an hour ago and here you are still food on your plate!" she scolded

"Sorry, Allura..." Pidge groaned getting up from her chair to submit to the princess' wishes.
"Seeya guys" she waved to the two she was eating with.

--------------

After a while spent silently between the two girls as Allura tested looks on Pidge to see what matched. "I'm sorry for blowing up on you I've just never really been able to do things like this." Allura broke the silence breaking Pidge from thought.
"Oh no it's alright I understand your frustration with this, I mean we are the only two girls on this ship for prolonged periods of time and you obviously never really lived a normal life because of the war and I did break a promise I made so it was reasonable for you to get upset I should be apologizing." Allura chuckled.
"I don't think either of us were in the wrong, just tired and had our own needs." She said finishing up the makeup look. Pidge nodded looking in the mirror surprised, she looked so pretty. "You look amazing Pidge!" Allura clapped, just then there was a knock on the door. "Come in" Allura yelled toward the door as she started brushing Pidge's hair. Lance strutted in.
"Why hello there Allura." He sang sporting an idiotic grin. "Shiro is lookin' for you." The girls rolled their eyes.
"Alright, Lance but first I want your opinion on Pidge's look." She turned Pidge's chair away from the vanity and toward Lance. After a minute of him staring he immediately turned in the opposite direction covering his face to hide the fact that it was flushed red.
"Uh, she looks nice." He uttered trying not to show much of his face as he turned back toward them. "Uh, Hunk wanted me after I delivered Shiro's message." He hurried toward the door, but just before leaving he turned back to get one last glance at her beautiful hopeful face, he saw a disappointed Pidge rubbing the makeup off her face. As Allura rushed out of the room she bumped into Lance giving him a bit of a glare. And with that Lance left the room, and Pidge, alone.
