It was currently Thursday and we were at the mall closest to us. We needed to buy some suits and a dress, right now we were at the food court since Kai and Leo wanted pizza.

Leo had sauce smudges all over his mouth, I chuckled. He raised his head to look at me. "What's funny?" He asked taking another bite of his pizza. I smiled looking at him and shook my head.

"Nothing."

He looked at me confused but took my explanation.

"Can you guys hurry up?" Valentino said rubbing the tiredness of his eyes.

"You know, you should try this pizza it's really good." Leo said trying to help Valentino. Kai was silently eating his pizza beside Leo, I yawned and rested my head on the table.

The food court was loud and I could hear voices everywhere. I groaned hitting my head against the table a few times.

"Stop being weird, we're getting stares." I heard Valentino mutter silently to himself.

I raised my hand and looked at him, I narrowed my eyes annoyed by his presence. "Says the guy who broke a whole fucking mouse with his bare hands.." I whispered but enough for him to hear me.

He groaned standing up in his seat. "You know what, Leo and Kai, you guys are taking way too fucking long to eat, so I'm going to buy the shit with Athena. Don't move and if you need help with something call Athena."

I stared at him and raised my hands in the air. "Does it look like I have a fucking phone!?" Valentino raised his hands in the air and walked away mumbling incoherent words. I rolled my eyes and followed him.

I ran until I caught up to him. "Ok so first were buying your dress and then the suits, understood?" he said taking out his phone and scrolling through it.

I hummed in agreement as we got to the store, people passed beside us knocking our shoulders, Valentino groaned and mumbled, "Can't we just kill them?"

I rolled my eyes and we entered the store. It was filled with dresses of every model and color. A beautiful black woman came up to us and greeted us.

"Hello, what may I help you with?" she asked in a sweet tone, I smiled at her and was about to respond but Valentino cut me off.

"We're trying to find an elegant dress for her." He said pointing to me. The woman smiled and looked at both of us, I tilted my head as to why she was starting so much.

"You two will have beautiful babies." She said smiling at us. "Such a lovely couple."

My eyes widened and I and Valentino started choking. I gasped for air but each time I tried to catch air, I choked more. The lady stared at us weirdly. Valentino pushed me further away from him, he started rubbing his throat and took intakes of air slowly.

"Were..not..a..couple" I wheezed out in between each choke.

"Hell no, I would never date an ogre-like her." He confessed. I gasped and pushed him to which he didn't even stumble which made me more irritated. The lady watched our encounter and tried to smile but it came more out like a grimace.

I laughed nervously as Valentino was zoned out staring at the ceiling. I bumped my shoulder with his shoulder and mumbled, "Help me, weirdo."

He shook his head and looked at me and raised an eyebrow, he cleared his throat and showed a charming smile to the lady.

"Sorry for that, we're just a weird couple." He apologized grimacing at the word 'couple'. Not going to lie I did cringe too. He swung his arm over my shoulder and pulled me closer to him so we were side to side. I tensed and pinched his side without the lady seeing. His smile fell for a moment by my pinch but he quickly fixed it.

The lady seemed convinced and clapped her hands eagerly. This is weird. "If you guys ever get married invite me." She said winking at us.

Valentine chuckled nervously and hummed in agreement and I did too, which was never going to happen. "I wish I was young again, just falling in love and then getting married and then the one erotic night." She sighed dreamily turning around. Valentino immediately let me go and gagged by her last line, my face scrunched into disgust by what she said.

I tried my best to smile and said "Hmm yeah.. So can we check out dresses?"

Her daydreaming stopped as she turned around to look at us and said, "Sure darling, follow me." She walked deeper into the rackets of dresses with us behind her.

A few minutes have passed as the nice lady showed me dresses, I only liked three of all the ones she showed me. She shooed us into a dressing room.

"Come on darling get in and check out those gowns." she pushed me into a room. I started taking off my shirt but I heard her say, "Come on you get inside too darling."

Wait what. Suddenly my door opened and she pushed Valentino inside and she quickly closed the door and locked it on the outside.

My eyes widened and yelped as I covered my chest, he looked towards the door and towards me by the sound I made. His eyes trailed towards my legs and toward my covered chest until they finally reached my shocked face. He groaned throwing his head back. He turned around and banged his head against the wall.

"Hurry up and put on the dresses and buy the one you like most." He said blankly.

I nervously stared at his back as I took off my clothes, making sure he didn't peek. I walked towards the chair in the corner and picked out a dress. I stepped into the gown and pulled it up, I put the straps on my shoulder but I realized there was a zipper in the back. Just my luck. I tried to pull the zipper up by myself as I grunted.

"Are you ok back there?" he questions ruffling his hair. I stared at his defined back and said, "Yeah but I need help."

I could already see him rolling his eyes. "Help with what Athena?"

"I need help with this fucking zipper." I groaned as I leaned against the opposite wall to him.

He turned around and stared at me with a raised eyebrow. "Turn around then." I turned around slowly and moved my hair to the side so it wouldn't get trapped in the zipper. I felt his fingers brush against my lower back as he gripped the zipper, I shivered to feel his cold fingers slowly trail up my spine. I let out a breath I didn't know I had. I slowly turned around to meet his eyes.

The dress was dark blue and it reached my thighs and had little diamonds scatted on the upper half. I did a turn slowly. "So what do you think?" I said asking for his opinion. I didn't like this one.

His upper lip curled in disgust, "that dress is fucking hideous" he looked at the other two dresses and walked towards the chair. He grabbed the red one and held it out to me.

I raised an eyebrow and grabbed it from his hand, my fingers brushing against his. "This one?" I said. He nodded and told me to turn around, his fingers brushed against my back again making me tap my foot against the floor anxiously. He let go and turned around to the other side of the wall and covered his eyes. I smiled looking at him and sighed.

I took off the dress and put on the one he chose. This one didn't have a zipper, It was red and its straps didn't reach my shoulder but instead, it reached the upper part of my arm. It was long until it touched my feet and it fitted like a glove showing all my curves, it had a slit that reached my thigh on my right leg.

"What do you think?" I asked him. He turned around and stared at my wide eyes. His eyes lingered on my legs then they slowly made their way up. I met his grey orbs as they started to my green ones. He opened his mouth to speak but he quickly closed it. I furrowed my eyebrows and looked down at my dress. I thought it looked good.

As if Valentino could read my thoughts he quickly shook his head and said "No! You don't look bad. You look fine". He shrugged and I smiled at him in a friendly way. "Thanks" I retorted.

We decided we were going to buy this one and in no time we bought the guy's suits. We bought Leo a light blue suit, Valentino bought the traditional black one and we bought Kai a golden one.

I was currently seated in the car as we drove back home. My eyes started to close and I felt myself drift into a deep slumber which I didn't resist.
