Caitlyn walked down the streets of Piltover in a daze as she went to pick up Vi. She was so deep in thought about what the mayor had told her. On one hand, she was very happy to hear she was getting an award, but on the other hand she was worried that he had to consider denying Vi access to the party.
Caitlyn wanted to make sure she never tarnished her image as the sheriff. She had to sacrifice a real social life in order to climb to her position as sheriff. It was always all work and no play for her. She didn't truly regret it, but the pressure of always having to be proper and dignified in her role did get to her every now and then.
Since Vi joined her on the police force, Caitlyn's had to make a lot of excuses for her. At first, it was to defend her choice of letting Vi join the police force, but after spending so much time with Vi, the excuses were to defend Vi herself. She's come to see Vi as a friend more than a co worker over the time they've been together. She tries to protect Vi from the trouble she finds outside of crime fighting. She's not always able to protect her from everything though.
Before Caitlyn realised it, she was already outside Vi's apartment building. As she walked up the stairs, she thought about telling Vi about what the mayor had told her. She knew letting Vi know about the mayor worrying about her causing trouble would end up causing trouble. She thought it might be fun to keep the award a surprise though. She did a quick run through of her thoughts and let out a breath to relax her mind.
Caitlyn knocked on the door and heard Vi from inside cry out in a girly voice "Oh who might be knocking at my door?" Caitlyn let out a small laugh at her antics.
"Come on Vi, we don't have much time to waste before the store's close." said Caitlyn to the closed door. It opened and Vi appeared in the doorway.
"You know Cupcake, it's not too late," said Vi with a smirk, "instead of lame shopping, we can just chill here or something."
"You're not getting out of it that easily." said Caitlyn as she grabbed Vi by the arm and pulled her out of her apartment.
Caitlyn and Vi made their way downtown to where the clothing stores were. Caitlyn had a store in mind where she figured they could find something suitable for Vi. Caitlyn stopped in front of the shop and looked in the windows at the dresses on display. There were many designs and colors on display in the front window. Vi looked at the dresses and said, "I hope you're not thinking of squeezing me into one of those?"
"No, these are probably too small for you, but I'm sure they have something that will fit you inside." said Caitlyn with a smile. She could tell by the look on Vi's face that she wasn't going to enjoy this. Caitlyn was kind of looking forward to big, strong Vi fumble around with a dress.
They made their way inside and began to look around the store. There were many styles and colors to choose from. Caitlyn began to sort through all the dresses and tried to find something that might suit Vi. Vi roamed through the store not really looking for anything, she was more just admiring all the different colors. Vi had never done this before so she had no idea what to look for.
"So, is there any color you would prefer?" asked Caitlyn.
"Well, I've always been a fan of pink and purple." Caitlyn should have known that. Caitlyn went to each dress that was pink or purple and eventually found a pink strapless one that might fit Vi. She held it up and studied it for a little while. She couldn't imagine Vi wearing this, but she didn't have to because Vi would be trying it on shortly. Caitlyn felt jittery with anticipation and couldn't wait to see it. Caitlyn walked over to the change room with the dress and called Vi over. Vi looked at the dress with a hint of surprise on her face and said, "You expect me to fit into that?"
"I'm pretty sure you'll be able to but we won't know until you try." said Caitlyn with a sly smile as she handed the dress to Vi and pushed her into the change room. The change room only had a curtain for a door, so Caitlyn stood outside.
Vi stood in the change room just staring at the dress in her hands. It never occurred to her that she didn't know how to put it on exactly. "Hey, Cupcake. How exactly do I put this thing on?"
Caitlyn never considered that Vi wouldn't know how to put the dress on. "Well first take your clothes off and step into it and just pull it up until it fits, it's not rocket science. Oh also make sure to take off your underwear to make sure it fits better."
"Wait what?" asked Vi, "you want me to get naked?" Vi was starting to have a bad feeling about all of this.
"Yes Vi, it will help fit the dress better."Caitlyn considered going in to help her but decided to let Vi make an attempt before going in. Inside the change room Vi started to undress herself and put her clothes on some hooks. She was standing in nothing but her underwear at this point. Vi felt really uncomfortable as she examined the dress, but she knew Caitlyn wouldn't just let her walk out of here without trying at least one thing on. Vi slowly took her underwear off and let them fall to the ground. She stood there for a few seconds looking at the dress. Vi wasn't totally uncomfortable with being naked, but she's never worn nothing but a dress before. She took a breath and stepped into the dress and began to pull it up. She had to wiggle it on a bit as it reached her hips. She continued until she reached the underside of her breasts and pulled the dress over them. She adjusted them a little until they were set. The dress was very tight to Vi's body.
"Alright Cupcake, I think I have it on right." said Vi.
"Okay I'm coming in then." Vi was startled by Caitlyn quickly entering the small change room with her. It was a change room not really meant for two people to be in comfortably. Without hesitation, Caitlyn began to check Vi's chest area for fitting. The contact made Vi turn red as Caitlyn made her way around Vi's body with her hands. Even though it was only for a short time, Vi felt really hot from her embarrassment and the close contact with Caitlyn. "I think it fits fine. Now let's get out of here so I can get a good look at you." said Caitlyn as she stepped out of the cramped change room.
She turned and watched as Vi took a few steps out. All Caitlyn could do was let a smile grow on her face as she witnessed this scene that she thought only existed in her mind. Although the dress did fit well, she couldn't help but feel this just didn't suit Vi at all. She had the feeling that this would be the case, but she wasn't going to let the chance to tease Vi a little slip away. "Well now, you look like you're ready to enter the Miss Piltover competition." said Caitlyn jokingly.
Vi smiled and struck a feminine pose "Nah I think I'm ready to compete for Miss Valoran in this dress", then Vi put a smirk on her face as she walked closer to Caitlyn and leaned forward a bit to show off her cleavage, "or maybe I could go find a corner to work and make a few extra bucks." said Vi as she bit her bottom lip seductively.
Caitlyn could feel her cheeks turning red as she turned away in hopes of Vi not noticing. Caitlyn took a few steps away and said, "Alright, jokes aside, I like the color but I think we should try something else." Vi let out a sigh of relief as she entered the change room again. Caitlyn left Vi to change as she looked through the store again. She came across the men's section and eyed the tuxedoes. She tried to imagine Vi in one and in her mind she could see it suiting her better than a dress, but the black and white just didn't seem to fit. Caitlyn let out a sigh as she continued her search for something even slightly suitable for Vi.
Meanwhile, Vi had finished changing and was wandering the store again. She found her way to the men's section and began looking at the stuff they had on display. She figured the men's clothes would feel a lot comfier than a dress would but the suits and tuxedoes seemed like a little too much. She also didn't really like the colors on them. Suddenly, the color pink caught her eye as she seen something behind a bunch of other clothing. She moved all the other stuff out of the way and revealed something she knew was perfect.
Caitlyn wandered around the store aimlessly now, she had looked everywhere but there just wasn't anything that would suit Vi. All of a sudden Vi walked up to Caitlyn with a bag in her hand and said, "Alright Cupcake I'm already to go now." Caitlyn was confused and surprised.
"Wait, you found something you like?" Caitlyn knew that if Vi liked it, something had to be up. "Well it seems you've already bought it but let me see you in it anyways."
Vi moved the bag behind her back to prevent Caitlyn from seeing its contents. "Not this time Cupcake," said Vi with a smile, "I know you're worried, but just trust me on this one alright?" Caitlyn was worried with what Vi had up her sleeve, but it's not like Caitlyn had much luck finding anything herself.
"Alright, but this better not be some kind of prank." warned Caitlyn.
"I wouldn't dream of wrecking a night like this." said Vi with a reassuring smile. As much as Caitlyn knew Vi had a knack for causing trouble, her words gave Caitlyn some peace of mind because she felt Vi had things under control this time. "Come on," said Vi as she put an arm around Caitlyn's shoulder, "let's get out of here and go grab something to eat, I'm starving."
"That sounds great." said Caitlyn with a smile as they both made their way out of the store.
Hello again!
So this is the chapter that was supposed to be one full chapter with the previous one
The main reason I split them up was because I was having a lot of trouble writing this shopping scene
As someone with 0% experience with dresses I had a lot of trouble trying to make things accurate and I still believe it's not 100%
I was getting pretty frustrated with it and as a result I feel that this chapter's quality may have suffered because of it but I'm not sure
I really want to get past the problems I was having with this chapter and the delay it was causing
I still hope you enjoy it :)
Thanks for reading!
