Chapter 11: Girl's Party Preparations
"I refuse to wear a dress!" Lal crossed her arm and glared at Aria. "Especially a frilly one!"
"But it looks so good on you," Aria sighed. It's been half an hour and they still couldn't agree on a dress. "Fine, then what kind of dress are you willing to wear?"
"Something simple, nothing fancy." Replied Lal.
"Hmmm," Aria looked through the racks of dresses.
"I think I found my dress!" Kyoko steps out of her changing room and twirled around. She was wearing a light pink cocktail dress with flower patterns.
"You look cute!" cried Haru. "Hahi, I think I found a dress for Aria!" Haru turns to Aria, holding up a navy blue dress. The dress was strapless and went down to the knees. It also came with a purple shrug. "Why don't you try it on?"
"Sure," Aria takes the dress and walks toward the changing room.
'Damn, this is why I hate fancy parties.' Thought Lal as she flipped through racks of dresses.
"Haru-chan, try on this dress!" Kyoko holds up a magenta colored dress.
"Ok," Haru takes the dress and also goes to the changing room.
Soon, Aria's stall opened and she walked out. "What do you think?"
"I think it looks great on you!" cried Kyoko. Lal nodded in agreement. 'That dress really shows Aria's figure. It also complements her hair color.'
"H-Hello," said a soft voice.
"Chrome-chan! Is your training over?" asked Kyoko. Chrome nods slightly.
Haru peeks out of her changing room. "Chrome-chan! Ready to choose your dress?"
"Y-Yeah…" replies Chrome.
"Let's go look," Kyoko says as she gently guides Chrome to the racks of dresses.
"Hahi! I need help, desu!" Lal sighs and enters Haru's stall.
"What's the matter?" she asks. Haru turns to her with tears in her eyes.
"The zipper of the dress is caught in my hair. It hurts, desu!"
Lal sighed, "Be still. I'll get it out quickly." And just as she promised, she got Haru's hair free in less than a minute.
"Thanks Lal,"
"No problem," Lal exits the changing room and continues searching for a dress.
"Ta-Da!" Haru makes a grand exit from her changing room.
"Looking good, Haru," complimented Aria.
"Thanks! I like the color but, I wish it had more frills… Can you help me look for one?"
"I'd be happy to help," Soon, Aria had found a dress that Haru loved.
"Umm," Chrome timidly steps out of her changing room.
"Chrome-chan! You look gorgeous!" cried Haru and Kyoko.
Chrome blushes as she hears the compliments. She was wearing a spaghetti- strapped, lavender dress with a purple sash in the middle. The dress went all the way to her ankles and on the top right of her dress, there was a pin that looked like an orchard.
'Wow, she's cute' thought Lal. 'So now I'm the only person without a dress…'
As if right on cue, Kyoko walks up to Lal with a dress in her hand. "Lal, what do you think about this dress?"
Lal examined the dress for a second. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. "It looks good! May I try it on?"
Kyoko nods and Lal goes in to the changing room. Few minutes later, she steps out smiling. "This dress is perfect! Thank you." Lal's voice is full of gratitude.
Kyoko giggled. "Glad to help!"
"We're here!" Bianchi and I-pin step in to the Girl's Dressing Room. "We had to help with set-up. The room looks gorgeous!" gushed Bianchi.
"That's great news!" smiled Haru. "Since you're here, let's get dresses for both of you!" She giggles as she flips through dresses.
Lal looks at the clock near the entrance. 'There's two hours before the Midnight After-Party begins…'
"Hahi! We're running out of time! Let's quickly do our hair!" Haru quickly drags everyone to the mirrors.
'What did I do to deserve this torture?' sighed Lal as Kyoko combed through her blue hair.
1 hour and a half later:
"We're finished!" cried Kyoko and Haru.
"Let's go," Bianchi elegantly steps out of the Girls Changing Room. The other girls quickly follow after her.
'Here goes nothing,' Lal thought as she steps out of the room.
Yeah, there are a lot of repeated words in the chapter... Sorry!
Also, the next chapter might be this story's last. Please support my next work (if I do think of one).
Please review :)
