We don't own this show! Enjoy people!
"What about this?" Tsubaki said holding up a light green dress. Liz, Patty, Crona, and Tsubaki forced me to go shopping with them after school. I don't know why they would want me to come. I have no money to spend on clothes. I sigh in boredom when Liz goes in for a closer look at the dress. Why did they even need a new dress? It's not like there was a dance or anything coming up. I shrugged until I was jerked down by patty.
"Do you like my picture," she said holding up something that looked like spots of yellow and black.
"Um…yeah…what is it?" I asked as I plastered a smile on my face.
"A giraffe silly,"she smiled as she started giggling and mumbling something about a giraffe. I just smiled at her and turned my attention to Crona who was looking at some clothes. I knew I wasn't going to get anywhere else with patty since she seemed like she was in her own little world. Once I approached Crona, I called her name which made her jump.
"Maka, oh you scared me," she said giving me an uncomfortable smile. That's when I noticed in her hands some clothes. She had a black skirt in her hands that went down to about knee length and a white blouse.
"What's that?" I asked pointing to the clothes in her hands. She looked a little nervous to my question and a blush came upon her face.
"Nothing…I just…was looking at some clothes," she stuttered.
"For?" I asked.
"Well Kid asked me on a date this weekend so…" she whispered.
"Oh…" was what I said so I could think of something better."Well you should try them on," I told her to encourage her even though Kid wasn't my favorite person. It worked though and she went to the dressing room. I followed her a little way until I saw a chair. I mean a chair where I could sit and relax while they shopped. I almost ran to it but just as I got there I was grabbed by the collar of my shirt.
"Hey, what?" I asked turning around to see Liz standing there looking annoyed. "What are you doing Liz?" I asked as she gave me an evil smile which made me scared.
"Come on Maka, let's take a walk," she said calmly as she pulled me closer to what it looked like the dressing rooms. Before I realized what she was doing, she shoved me into one of the dressing rooms.
"Let me out," I banged on the door when I heard my friends mumbling something.
"We have to make a deal first," I heard Liz voice call on the other side of the door.
"What deal?" I asked.
"Ok do you see the clothes in there?" she asked. I turned around to see the green dress that they looked at earlier. The white blouse and black skirt that Crona was looking at earlier, and a jean mini-skirt and a black v-neck shirt that I hadn't seen before.
"Yeah," I said slowly suddenly feeling a shiver go up my spine.
"Maybe we shouldn't," I then heard Tsubaki's voice say. Yes she was on my side.
"No Tsubaki, it's for her own good," I heard Liz argue. "Ok anyways you have to try on the clothes and choose one to buy."
"But I don't have any money to buy clothes," I groaned not wanted to spend my college money on any clothes.
"Let me finish," Liz screeched.
"Ok fine," I sighed.
"I will pay for it, but you have to wear it on your date with Soul," she finished.
"What, no way, and it's not a date," I crossed my arms over my chest being stubborn.
"Do you want out of the dressing room?" she then asked.
That was what shut me up but there was nothing I could do so I stomped my foot on the ground, "Fine."
"Good girl," I heard her say at last but I turned my attention to the clothes so I could get it over with. I first picked up the green dress. It seemed fine but it had a huge V-neck which was a problem. I slid it on and looked at myself. It was all green so it matched my eyes but it showed so much cleavage. I threw it off and went to the next pieces of clothes. I grabbed the skirt and blouse next but this one made me feel sad. Now I know the reason why Crona seemed so jumpy when I asked her about the clothes. I almost felt betrayed when she did that but I could just blame Liz for forcing Crona into helping her. I knew she was a devil the moment I met her. It took me a couple minutes until I got in the clothes. It was actually ok I guess. The only thing was the skirt, it was too puffy and it made me look huge. I usually avoided skirts like this but Crona wouldn't know that so I couldn't blame her. The blouse was ok though, it didn't make me uncomfortable at all. After I took a good look at myself I put on the jean skirt and shirt. The jean skirt was fine even though it was a little bit too short but I could deal with it, but the shirt was terrible. It squeezed me like there was no tomorrow and it was super itchy. I had to take it off right away before I died. I sighed because I didn't want to wear any of them until I thought of something. I still had on the jean skirt so I threw on the blouse on top of it and it looked nice. Well nice enough so I could get out of the dressing room. I finally changed into my normal clothes and hanged the unwanted. I took the clothes that I wanted and went to the door and knocked.
"Did you pick one?" Liz asked.
"Yes now let me out," I demanded as the door swung open. I glared at Liz as I stomped out of the room.
"Give me the outfit," Liz said as she reached out for the clothes in my hands. I threw them at her and started walking away. "This isn't one of our outfits," she stated as she looked at me.
"Take or leave it, I'm already out of the dressing room," I said as I kept walking. I was so mad that I needed to just get away so I went out of the store and sat on a bench. A few minutes later Crona came out and sat next to me.
"I'm sorry," she finally said.
"What for?" I asked completely dumfounded for the moment.
"For lying to you, and tricking you," she said as she looked down starting to get depressed.
"It's fine, it was all Liz idea any way's," I shrugged as she looked up. "I just don't see why I need an outfit," I sighed as she giggled.
"What?" I asked.
"Come on Maka, you are going on a date…" she said when I stopped her.
"It's not a date!" I yelled.
"Ok a deal with a boy," she finished.
"So what, what's the problem?"
"Ok well Liz said something like she needs to look nice so she can get a guy or something like that," Crona smiled which she had been doing a lot lately ever since I was told that Kid and her were dating.
"Well I don't need a guy, so there is no reason," I argued.
We didn't say anything else since Tsubaki, Crona, and Patty came up.
"I'm sorry, but here," Liz said defeated as she threw me a bag with "Rue 21" printed all over it. I just didn't know if I could forgive her just yet.
"Maka I'm sorry," Patty cried then coming up to me crying her eyes out. She then jumped on me and cried in my shoulder.
"Patty, it wasn't your fault," I whispered soothingly.
"Really?" she asked as she sniffed.
"Yes," I said unsure, but right when I said that she got super happy and started dancing around. I shook my head when she came back up to me.
"It's for you," she said holding out the picture of a giraffe to me, the one that she was drawing earlier.
"Thanks," I said taking it and looking at it. It still didn't look like a giraffe but it was the thought that counted.
"Well, I think we should go get something to eat, I'm starved," Tsubaki finally cut in. "Oh and by the way sorry for tricking you Maka."
"It's alright, I'm ok now," I smiled.
Once we left the store we all went to Subway and got some foot-longs. We all sat down and started eating when they started pestering me again.
"So Maka you never told us how was the date last weekend?"Liz asked.
"It wasn't a date," I yelled once again.
"Ok whatever so how did it go," Liz rolled her eyes.
"Yes I've wanted to know also," Tsubaki commented.
"Yep," Patty and Crona also agreed.
"Well it was ok, I guess," I sighed thinking about the weekend.
"And…" Liz pestered.
"Um well you know nothing exciting, but my dad tried to kill him multiple times," I shrugged.
"What?" they all yelled at the same time and I'm pretty sure we were getting stared at by the other people and workers in the restaurant.
"Shh…" I quieted them and shook my head.
"Well?" Crona asked.
"Well what?" I asked.
"What happened?" she asked.
"Ok fine but this is the only time I will tell you, it would take to long if I told this multiple times," I sighed and told them the whole story.
"Wow, you are so boring Maka," Liz sighed almost falling out of her seat.
"Am not," I crossed my arms annoyed.
"Are too," she argued.
"Am not," I argued back.
"Are Too!"
"Am Not!"
"Are Too!"
"Am Not." And it went on.
