Thank you to the reviews. Here's another chapter. This is just Kurt and Rachel shopping. I thought him and Rachel needed some one on one time. So sorry for the people who are used to Mercedes always being there. Maybe next time.
"Maybe this wasn't the best idea." Rachel chewed her lip and looked apprehensive at entering the mall.
Suddenly a magazine was thrust in front of Rachel Berry's face, and once again her eyes met up with the magazine ad that started this whole decision. "Teenage Fashion Disaster".
"Really Rachel what were you thinking?" Kurt brought back down the magazine now that it did what it was supposed to. "I mean really a unicorn sweater?"
"My gremmie made it for me." Rachel started to pout.
"And I am sure you and your ummm…gremmie love one another but seriously, a unicorn sweater. You need to tell your gremmie that you are now 16 going on 17." Kurt smiled when he realized what the end of his sentence sounded like. So with a devious smile he started singing a parody of the Sound of Music "16 going on 17" song.
You are 16 going on 17…baby…it's time for a change…. Kurt danced in front of Rachel and spun her around.
you're unaware…how we all stare…your clothing drives me insane… He then pulled at her current animal sweater that she was wearing.
but lucky for you…I know what to do…about what things to wear… Rachel soon found herself inside and in front of one of the many clothing stores.
don't you be scared…Ms. Fashion impaired…I will come to your aid…Rachel started feeling a little better about walking into the store. She found it endearing that he would reference one of her favorite musicals but still did he have to call her "Ms. Fashion impaired".
Kurt was about to go into another verse but he saw that Rachel relaxed a bit more and was ready to go on their shopping expedition. "Alright Ms. Berry, you ready to have a Hummel Revolution!"
"Revolution?"
"Yes because your clothing is revolting." Kurt started to laugh a little at his pun and Rachel joined him.
"Okay now let's see what we can do to make you a new woman."
After about thirty minutes of just walking around the store and talking about colors, textures, patterns, and seasons which had Rachel's head spinning Kurt finally started to make his selections. And soon Rachel found herself with a mountain of clothes to try on.
"Okay now go in there try on the first outfit and come out and model for me."
"Why is it necessary that I come out and parade around for you? I thought all these clothes were acceptable why can't if I just see if they fit?"
"Because my dear Rachel, they might have had hanger appeal but we need to see if they lay correctly on you." Kurt said while looking at his nails. "And after this maybe we should go and get a mani-pedi."
"A what?"
"Seriously Rachel? You never heard of a mani-pedi. You know a manicure pedicure."
"Well of course I know what a manicure and pedicure are I do like to keep myself well groomed." Rachel gave a indignant snort.
"Of course you do now stop stalling and go in there and try on something that you can model for me." Kurt pushed Rachel into the nearest stall and waited for her to come back out.
After what seemed like forever for Rachel, Kurt finally wheedled down the clothes to different groups; day wear, night wear, party clothes, school acceptable, and so on and so forth. She never knew that there would be so many different occasions that required different clothes.
"You know what Kurt when I become a big Broadway star. I am going to insist on having you design clothes for me. You have a keen eye on this type of thing like I have a well trained ear and voice for singing."
Kurt just laughed at this and pulled Rachel towards Victoria's Secret.
"Really Kurt do I need new under garments too? They can't see that too can they?"
"Rachel you need to look sexy even underneath it all. And anyways as your fashion consultant I say you need some sexier bras and panties."
Rachel took in a deep breath and nodded.
-two more hours later-
"Wow I never spent so much time at a mall before. Or found it to be so tiring. If they ever made shopping into an Olympic event I know you would be coming home with a gold medal."
"I never knew you were rich." Kurt said while they went to the food court to refuel. "I mean you dress the way you do but you could have afforded even better name brands then what we got today."
"Well my daddy is surgeon and my dad is a lawyer so we don't go without. And I never found it necessary to flaunt my money around." Rachel stated as she ordered a salad and a vegetarian sandwich from Lee's.
"You know what Rachel."
Rachel looked over at Kurt and saw a sad look grace is face.
"I am sorry about what I did to you last year when I pretty much made you dress like a cheap prostitute. I am glad though you were able to put that aside and ask for my help. You are a great person Rachel and I know you will make it, and that's a little bit of why I was so mean to you." Kurt looked down at his food. She could tell that he felt really bad about his past actions and knew that he was trying to help her now.
"I know Kurt and I forgive you, I had a long time ago. I also know that you are a really nice guy underneath your really wonderful clothing." This got Kurt to look up and smile at her.
"Friends" Rachel said sticking out her hand.
"Friends." Kurt smiled back at her and they shook hands and started to laugh.
"Now that drama is all done with let's finish our shopping and wow the whole populace of Mc Kinely."
Rachel smiled at her now new true friend "yes let's do this."
"So what will you wear tomorrow Rachel?"
"Hmmm…I think you will have to see along with everyone else."
"Hey! That's no fair I should at least help you get ready. After all the time and energy I did invest."
Rachel thought about this fact and nodded "true I could still use your help. I want to make a grand entrance after all."
"And honey that is what we will do." Kurt linked arms with Rachel and shouted "Watch out Fashion World Rachel Barbara Berry is coming out."
Rachel rose your eyebrow at the last part.
Kurt laughed, "you know what I meant" and with that they finished the last of their expedition and soon were back at Rachel's home planning out their battle strategy for tomorrow.
