Chapter 10-Fashion Disaster
Author's Notes: I finally have a reviewer T_T I'm so happy! I am Eternally grateful for SweetAmethyst being my first. Makes it seem worthwhile. ANyway, I do not own MCL or Scarlet, but Shishi is mine...well as far as creation, otherwise she belongs to Lysander and vice versa~
Shishi: *blush* ahhh stop embarrassing me!
Author: So cute~ Now are you ready...you're doing the fashion model thingy…
Shishi: Do I have to...you're the author, you can override my aunt.
Author: Sorry no can do. If i have to suffer dealing with my friends dressing me up and doing my hair(which so long as they don't put me in jeans and know what they're doing I normally don't mind. ) Then you have to face this Christmasy fashionista thing
Shishi: It's the summer...Why are you making this chapter during Christmas time!?
Author: Cause I can and it's too late to change your plot story background and time setting. Now hush and please enjoy the story(Warning may be as long as the previous chapter or not...I haven't decided yet)
3rd P.O.V-time setting...Christmas Eve~
"I'm going to kill my aunt…" She stands in front of Leigh's clothing store. Now I'm sure many people are questioning why she doesn't try to blow the whole thing off...Turns out that Alexy, Rosa and Scarlet all took extreme procedures to make sure Sheena couldn't flee.
Because Alexy(though he may be awesomely gay, and sweet, he is surprisingly very strong and not afraid to drag his victims *Cough Armin and Sheena Cough* to a store. In addition, he also handcuffed her to him...wrist meets wrist and he sadly doesn't have the key. "I really hate how your dad lets you and Armin get away with taking his crap…" The blue head only grins...remember, Armin and Alexy's dads a cop.
Rosa at her disposal to keep Sheen from running(taking Alexy with her if need be)...has a taser...a legit electrifying taser, who had threatened to not only drag her into the store by force after nailing her with it, but also when school comes around will give Peggy( the annoying pest with a camera and the power of the school newspaper) information about Shishi's love life and the outfits she's forced to wear anyway...Quite the crafty little sneak ain't she…(Lysander wasn't too happy about the threat of Peggy learning of their relationship either...and he did try to stop her...didn't work out so well)
Lastly Scarlet...ohhhh she was scary. She threatened to torture her. How you may ask? Let's just say auntie is the best person to go to for stories...especially when it's about a certain girl who was dolled up since she was born and had horribly embarrassing events happen to her in the past. And if all else fails, she would attack her in her sleep, and possibly throw her off a cliff.(is there one in town?) Scarlet and her ever so amazing partners in crime are sparkling...the glowing in their eyes, it's really Really scary and frankly I'm glad I'm the narrator...because they just drag Sheena in, and there is no way out for her. Unless she goes through with this.
"Armin you know my position better then anyone, get a gun a knife I don't care, Kill me or give it to me so I can kill myself!" Did I mention all of the guys are there too? Yeah yeah, her school friends are there.(Riley would've come to harass her...if he didn't have to so his home school lessons haha, yeah the circus group wasn't there though they wish they could) Armin wanted to help...he really did, since his brother's done the same to him. However A taser and three demonic glares are preventing him from such, "Sorry...my hands are tied. Believe it or not I don't want to die…"
She sobs "Traitor! God dang you three, and thanks to you Rosa not even Lys can help me in this situation...I hate you all...AND SHUT UP CASTIEL THIS ISN'T FUNNY!" He still laughs...ignoring her. That is when Leigh shows up, you can see the resemblance in him and Lys, both are tall, wear victorian outfits. Both also have a calm like serene aura around them. Only difference is Leigh has black hair. Rosa hugs and pecks the black haired store owner on the lips.
Both smile at each other...all before Sheena is dragged into the changing room. Where Scarlet unlocks her with the key that Alexy sadly did not have. And they even made sure to lock the door so when Sheen was released from the handcuffs could not sprint her way out of the shop. "You people are horrible…" "Oh come on Shishi it's not so bad. We'll be dressing up too!" "Scarlet...you forget, you people like dressing up, I like my sweatpants and t shirts...especially when it's 20 degrees out!"
The white/blond haired girl is ignored and the dressing up begins...10 minutes of struggling, our three ladies and favorite Alexy come out in the victorian gear. Kentin is blushing...well he is going out with Alexy after all(haha Surprise! They are together in my story...in case anyone didn't realize that there was a reason Kentin was constantly keeping an eye on him. Romance is a funny, cute but strange thing)
All the boys eyes widen in shock at the group, as Leigh explains the designs, "Alexy is in a victorian black tie tux..." both he and our ladies are dazzling. "Rosa is wearing a purple and black corset ball gown with a v neckline and puffed up sleeves. Scarlet goes for a lacey pink and red ball gown with layers of alternating pink and red ruffles. Sheena, is in a long layered white dress with silver gray intricate patterns all over. She has a sweetheart neckline with short lace shoulder sleeves. All the dresses are made of materials of satin, lace, and cotton. In addition each are wearing a pair of 2 inch heeled shoes. Rosa chose knee high boots, Scarlet and Sheena are in regular heel shoes."
Leigh and Lysander all take pictures of the four standing together, separate and in pairs. Rosa and Scarlet grin suspiciously at one another. Rosa beams at her boyfriend, "Leigh let's get Sheena and Lysander in a photo together, then we can do some fun shots!" He nods signaling Lysander to go to where Sheena is, you know...he took his brothers relationship pretty well, in fact he was thrilled. Already practically treating Sheena like family. Lysander blushes before walking over to his embarrassed girlfriend. A picture of them, Lysander is behind her holding her waist, both blushing and smiling. A perfect heart warming photo. The same is done to Leigh and Rosa.
"Ugh this is boring why am I here again? Cut the couple crap." Scarlet pouts at the red head teen. "You didn't have to come Castiel, no need to be mean. And anyway...come here! Do a photo with me!" He sighs, annoyed but complies Kentin and Alexy get a photo together too, and so does Armin, but he got his gameboy taken away again for said photo. Alexy claps his hands...excitedly "Ok next set of outfits~!" Sheena groans...knowing it's going to be a long and unmerciful day.
The fashionista's next put on the chinese styled designs. Slim, tight, beautiful and silky! "Alexy, is wearing a yellow and orange emperor styled design with black and gold colored crown. Rosa has on an outer sky blue robe, on the inside..." She takes off the outer layer robe for everyone to see. "Is a light purple kimono with a long trail, with the cuffs collar, and sash the same blue color as the outer robe, with floral patterns." Pictures are taken of both while posing, some funny, some dramatic.
Scarlet comes out of the room. "Scarlet is in an elegant mermaid style dress of red and gold as the inner layer. For the outer layer," She adds her addition. "Is a see through pale red and purple color shawl with bird patterns. Lastly Sheena," Lysander stares...doesn't mean to but he does. He is still a guy after all. "Is wearing a slim sleeveless forest green dress with slits up the sides. The edgings, cuffs, and dragon outline patterns are all white. She also can attach sleeves that go on just below the shoulders." She puts on the sleeves to demonstrate. I think We broke Lysander...So we will do a time skip before Lysander, passes out from shock and a bloody nose.
Everyone from out photography mission goes back to the back to change, after dozens of dresses and stylish designs/photos later. And here you find Lysander resting his head in his hands, trying his best to calm his blushing crimson cheeks and rushing heart. Kentin Ironically is doing the same, as Castiel laughs and pats their back. Armin...is passed out from a bloody nose, as well as at least a dozen guys and girls who had happened to be walking by the store and happened to see the girls and Alexy try on the costumes.
In the changing rooms...Alexy is all set and waits for the girls. "SO Sheeny-pie, what are you going to wear for tomorrow? You're doing the performing thing at the circus right?" You hear a seriously long bang...which happened to be Sheena smashing her head against the wall. " I have no idea...frankly I don't think I'll be able to perform in any of those." Scarlet pops back out in her black skinny jeans, ankle boots and her lacy black and pink tank top. "Why? You looked great in everything." Rosa giggles as she steps out in her usual garb. "That's the problem. She's too embarrassed." A sigh comes out of Sheena's mouth as she appears before her friends.
"No that's not it guys, the problem is, for my performances, I'll be running jumping singing and even sparring on stage. All the outfits I wore were dresses or things that will be difficult to move in. I think I have made a decision though…" All 3 pairs of eyes go to her sparkling with anticipation...just practically screaming TELL US! She looks at them with a smirk. "Not telling~" In a sing song voice she walks back into the store trying to calm and awaken our ever so group of spazzed out male and female victims.
Next Day cause I'm cool like that~ Sheena's P.O.V
A yawn escapes my lips as I stretch out of bed. I decided(more like was forced) to spend the night at Rosas, which happened to be at Lysanders house since Leigh, Lys and Rosa all live together. I can just hear the my aunt giggling like a schoolgirl, wondering why I didn't date sooner. 'You actually have a life! I'm so proud of you baby~' Hopefully she won't find out...so long as I keep three peoples mouths shut.
So the four of us opened gifts. Me ready to kill Rosa for giving me and forcing to open her gift in front of Lysander which was lacy underwear...'It will look great on you! And besides, the perfect outfit always starts with what's underneath. You can thank me later.' I swear I think she's torturing me and Lysander on purpose, I'm amazed he's not dead from all the shenanigans. Anyway we give out our gifts, ate breakfast and left. It's still only 9 am, but I need to go to the circus early anyway...it's going to take forever to get ready.
"Ok guys, this is the outfit set you are wearing for tonight." I give out the list of partners and songs. We set up the stage, prepare all the equipment and go over our dances one last time before dressing up. Aoi looks at me with a snort, seeing the outfit I sadly get into. " I can't believe you chose this. This is sooo not what you go for." "Believe me I know, sigh. But it was at least to me the safest thing to pick." She looks at me with false pity. Then chuckles, "Was it really that bad?" I move passed her with a depression/demonic aura…"You have no idea." I over hear her swearing saying she should've been there but for the most part I tune her out. Well it's for a good cause, it's now or never. But oh how I wish it was never…
Lysander's P.O.V
"Ohhhh I can't wait this is sooo exciting. And Armin stop playing your game for at least five minute the shows about to start!" Alexy glares at his twin brother, who pouts putting his game away. Castiel and Scarlet had left to get refreshments, while Rosa and Kentin used this time to go to the restroom. I sigh and look around, seeing some familiar faces. And they spot me as well, waving they appear. "Yo Vi look, its Lys, where's everyone else?"
"Hello Kim, hello Violet and they are either getting snacks, or they are in the bathroom." She nods sitting down next to me, Violet blushes while sitting next to Armin. He looks away, blushing as well. I know at one point when we were talking he mentioned liking the shy girl. It's not my place to say but they seem right for eachother. "Yo we're back~" Our 4 missing people return all taking their seats and handing out the snacks. With quick hellos to Violet and Kim.
I look down and I also see Nathaniel and Melody from school. I hope Castiel doesn't notice, it's strange because at one point Nathaniel and Castiel at least from what I knew were somewhat friends, despite their differences. But after she left they went to war so to speak. I then also notice yet another pair familiar faces, Iris and a boy with green hair. I see him often at the gardening club after school, I believe his name is Jade.
A slight shake of my shoulders brings me out of my exploring. "Lys-Baby why are you spacing out? Are you excited to see what your girl is gonna wear?" She grins mischievously at my blush and I look at the center stage, hoping it begins soon. Kim stares wide eyed at me, and I can only tell this because I see it from the corner of my eye. "No way he finally got a girlfriend who is it!? I'll bet it's Sheena right?" Everyone silently nods, I tune out the words said because the curtains rise. Sheena once more is wearing her white mask...as well as...
3rd P.O.V
Sheena went for the modern chic American fashion line. It included sneakers, ripped up black leggings that showed parts of her long naturally tan legs. For a top she has on a long sleeved black and white striped shirt with microscopic sparkles all over. In her hair in a red rose hair piece, said hair is flowing down her back instead of a regular ponytail or bun. On her arms are intricate criss crosses of black and white ribbons, with fingerless gloves. Like she said...it was the safest and easiest of the whole fashion fiasco from the previous day. "Welcome everyone thank you for your patience. Let us begin"
(Do not own the song, link on the bottom and it's very fitting yes?)
"Welcome To The Show"
Now's the time, get in line, don't be afraid tonight
We're gonna take you high, before you realize
'Round and 'round you'll go, up and down, never slow
Feel the excitement grow, oh
This is where you let go
All the children who came are cheering and clapping watching, their full attention on the dancers and their carfully planned performance
Hands high like a roller coaster
This love is taking over
Take us higher here we go
Oh, oh, oh
Welcome to the show
Gravity we're defying
'Cause we were madefor flying
We're about to lose control
Welcome to the show
People automatically start giving money to the circus clowns walking around asking for donations for the performance
Oh, oh, we're on a mission nothing, nothing, can stand in our way
Oh, oh, we don't need permission
We're gonna rise up and we'll be the change
Oh, oh, hear us on your stereo
Oh, oh, we're about to lose control
Oh, oh, everybody knows
Oh, oh, this is where you let go
Hands high like a roller coaster
This love is taking over
Take us higher here we go
Oh, oh, oh
Welcome to the show
Gravity we're defying
'Cause we were made for flying
We're about to lose control
Welcome to the show
The guys lifting their female partners in the air, making them fly while flipping over, the audience dazzled by how flexible and well times moves are
And put your hands u-u-up
We're gonna have some f-u-u-n
We've only just beg-u-u-n
And it's too late to r-u-un, you can't run
So put 'em u-u-up
We're gonna have some f-u-u-n
Turn u the bass let it b-u-u-mp
We've only just begun, and you can't run
Confetti and necklaces fly out during the show landing in the audience for people to grab. Kim and Alexy grin, each grabbing said necklaces. Neither willing to share with their. friends
Hands high like a roller coaster
This love is taking over
Take us higher here we go
Oh, oh, oh
Welcome to the show
Gravity we're defying
'Cause we were made for flying
We're about to lose control
Welcome to the show(2x)
More money gets donated, as the song begins to meet its end.
We're gonna have some f-u-u-n
Turn u the bass let it b-u-u-mp
We've only just begun, and you can't run(2x)
It ends with each dancer posing, our favorite with the white mask(Ok my favorite, don't judge) is standing with her arms crossed with both hands in the position of a gun. And though it's probably hard to see with her mask on, she's winking. The show continues, till it's over. But her jobs not done yet. She has a few places to visit before this christmas day ends...starting with a toy store.
To be continued~
