"DRESS REHEARSAL??!!" you exclaimed loudly with a huge smile on your face. Dress rehearsals were always your favourite. They really only gave a tiny taste of what the competition was to be like, but they made the process of practicing more motivating and fun.
"YES DRESS REHEARSAL!" rico shouted back with joy. "give yourself some time to prepare whilst i see the dress maker out."
You thanked the dress maker once again with your most deepest appreciation and gratitude and left towards the dressing room again. Rico and the dress maker left, talking and walking towards the exit.This left Levi in the middle wondering where to go.
'do i wait for (y/n) on the bleachers or go see what she's doing. Surely she's not changing right? she's already in her costume.' Levi thought to himself. He looked over to Rico and the dress maker who were deep in conversation, slowly promenading towards the exit and then looked at the other side towards the familiar dressing room door. An easy decision was made.He knocked on the dress room door and opened the door ajar. "Come in!" you yelled. Levi steadily opened the door and closed it. The last person you expected to be knocking on the door was Levi so you blushed a little. Quickly grabbing your blush palette, you pretended like your natural blush was faux and doused your cheeks in blush. "L-Levi! what're you doing back here?" you said whilst looking at him through the reflection of the mirror. "well you left me abandoned and all alone out there, so i decided to seek shelter." he said sarcastically whilst walking over to you. That sounded so cute to you. Like a lost little sheep trying to find its comfort. 'you're overthinking (y/n), chill out he's walking over.' you thought in your head and carried on doing your make up. Levi stood next to you in admiration as you were blending your eyeshadow. 'amen for the blush i put on earlier' you praised in your head. You turned your head towards him. He looked so curious and cute so you turned your head back to the mirror. "Can i help you?" you said to Levi with a small smile without giving him eye contact. "No.....actually get me a chair." he said with a slight blush from being busted for staring. "Just sit on the sofa in the back. " you motioned your hand towards it.
'thank god hes gone i can breathe again' you thought in your head as Levi sat proper on the sofa, intently staring at your reflection through the mirror. 'please stop summoning my soul' you cried in your head as you felt his eyes burn the back of your head. Mascara, then lips, and you were done. A bold red lip would be a smart move ;) .
when you finished, you looked absolutely stunning (you do anyway no matter what). This was who you were on stage. A performer. It just felt right and you felt like you did an outstanding job of the make up. You looked at Levi who was absolutely astonished and quickly looked away and smiled to yourself. You put your hair in a sleek low bun and hair sprayed and pinned your hair in the areas that needed it.
"i wonder what Rico is doing." you said in order to break the silence. "oh she's talking intently still to the dress maker about god knows what." levi responded. you chuckled a little. 'well at least i know he's not dead back there' you thought to yourself and widened your eyes a little to express yourself. You walked over to a small cupboard and felt Levi's stare still linger. You took it like the strong gal you are all the while blushing and took out a pair of small diamond studs and placed them in your ears. you walked back to the mirror they looked cute. your neck was already covered with diamonds from the dress so there was no need to wear a choker. Instead you decided to wear a headband.
You pulled out a box from the cupboard and in it was filled with different types of diamond headbands. Each one had a special place in your heart and dazzled in the light like pirates gold. This was going to be tough. "Leviiiii, could you help me pick a headband please?" you placed the box onto the dressing table and he slowly approached you. You felt shy. This felt different than any other time you were with Levi. He took a quick glance at the contents of the box and back at you whilst you looked up at his face. He delicately moved each piece of fine jewellery to the side whilst he searched for the perfect one.
Then there it was. It sparkled in his eye and he knew it was flawless. He took it out and looked at you. You were happy with his choice. in fact you were infatuated by his adequate taste. "it's perfect." you said and looked up at him with a smile and took it from his hands.
You cautiously placed it on your head with prudence and adjusted it to fit exactly how you needed it. It went from the top of your head to below your bun. You pinned and hair sprayed it in to get it on as tight as possible. "There's a bit sticking out at the back, here let me tuck it in for you." Levi said whilst sticking it down with his fingers and put it in with some other hair under a pin. You slowly looked back at his face. "...thanks." you looked at him sheepishly biting your lip softly, trying not to grin like an idiot.
Slowly your heads inched closer to each other and Levi's hands found your waist and pulled you a little closer whilst you held his arm. An innocent, soft kiss was exchanged between the two of you.
You looked into Levi's eyes and immediately looked away, blushing and smiling. "Where's the confidence now, huh?' Levi asked you with his face still close to yours in a deep, quiet tone. "You look amazing right now. Beautiful. It's going to be hard to take my eyes off you." levi said whilst putting his hand towards the side of your head.
You, still in shock from the kiss, could only smile like an idiot and look at your feet. "thank you. " you almost whispered and took a brisk peep at his face and looked away again.
"Come on, let's show Rico how pretty you are." You followed Levi as he held your hand and guided you towards the door.Rico was just saying goodbye to the dress maker and turned back to look at the elegant, refined and glamorous you. "(y/n) you look phenomenal!!!" Rico squealed whilst walking towards you, her arms also extended out towards you. "look at this little model, but sheesh you could've gone less heavy on the blush and your lipstick is smudged a little. Be careful... BUT YOU LOOK FANTASTIC." she said as she fixed you lipstick with her finger and jumped in excitement after. Levi quickly took his sleeve to his mouth and wiped hard just in case.👀
"Come on, Lets get you up and going." Rico said as she handed your skates to you with a big smile and Levi took his space at his favourite spot on the bleachers.
