The students were buzzing once the final school bell rang. They were excited about the fall dance the following evening. Banners hung from the hallways, flyers filled the halls.
Asami and Bataar Jr. exited their class. They were in a deep discussion about how temperature is related to kinetic energy.
"Well Asami, I'm just hoping Mr. Varrick doesn't blow up the classroom when he heats up the chemicals… " Bataar Jr. indicates in his most serious tone.
Asami places her bag down in front of her locker and pulls out a few books. "Well, how do we know that isn't his plan all along?"
She opens her locker and finds a red rose with a little folded note attached.
Asami smiled,smelled the rose and opened the note.
I can hear music and I can only imagine you in my arms dancing with me. Please, make my dream come true and go with me to the dance.
Yours, Korra
Asami heard a cough behind her. She turned to see her blue eyed Alpha smiling smugly at her.
The Omega moved into the Alpha's arms. She gave her a gentle kiss, "I'd do anything for you."
Korra raised a brow. "So, that's a yes?"
"Of course." Asami then gave a quizzical look. "Then again I never thought I'd ever go to any of these things with a jock."
Korra laughed. "Ok, nerd." The Alpha pecked her on the neck. "My smart, beautiful, sweet nerd."
"Can you two be anymore obvious? I swear you two might just absorb each other." Kuvira walked up sounding slightly annoyed.
Opal gave Kuvira a slight push. "Aww it's cute."
Kuvira pointed into her mouth, making a gagging noise.
Bataar rolled his eyes. "Asami, we can finish our discussion later. I'm going to head on home to start my project. You two be safe and enjoy yourselves."
"Thanks and see you on Monday." She said as she waved her friend good-bye.
"Sooo, you're going to make an appearance at the dance tomorrow night!" Opal squealed grabbing Asami's hands in excitement.
Asami smiled and nodded.
"Do you even have a dress?!" Opal's eyes got big.
Asami looked at Korra. "Ummm, I wasn't expecting it. I might have something.."
"Oh my spirits!" Opal looked Korra directly into her eyes. "I am sorry but I am stealing your girlfriend for the rest of the day!"
Opal took Asami's hands and began walking with her.
Asami walked away looking at Korra bewildered. "But…. I don't.."
"Don't worry I got you girl." Opal simply stated.
Korra simply shrugged her shoulders. "Omegas."
The two Omega's got into Asami's ride. The driver looked back.
"Miss Korra will not be joining us today?"
"Sorry, but we have our own things to do." Opal addressed the driver. "So take us to Azula's Fashions."
The driver looked at Asami, who simply nodded.
"Girl, we're going to have so much fun!" Opal hopped in her seat.
Asami shifted, "Ummm, Opal I know nothing about.."
"Asami, just trust me." Opal reassured the pale teen.
The girls arrived at Azula's Fashions. The attendant looked at the pair from her phone for a second, then resumed tapping away on her phone.
The girls shared a look, but began browsing through the racks. Frankly, Asami had no clue what to look for. But Opal pulled out a few and talked to her about fashion and what colors and styles would suit her.
"Ok. So, I think you should try on a few of these here." Opal said in deep thought. She looked up at the attendant. "Excuse me, She'd like to try on these dresses."
The attendant looked at Asami. "Are you sure? These may be a bit out of her price range."
Opal became irritated. "Look, just grab a key, unlock this dressing room and grab your manager."
The attendant rolled her eyes, grabbed the key and unlocked the dressing room. "Ok, But I assure you that you will be the one dealing with her temper. I'll go get her." With that she went to the back room.
Asami shifted, "Look we can always go somewhere else."
"Pffttt nonsense, You deserve the best and we're going to get you the best. I'll deal with her." Opal handed her the dresses. "Now try these on. I mean I know you probably have a dress, you're filthy rich. But do you have a dress with that Wow factor something that would make your alpha want to rut you right then and there!"
The attendant came out. "She will be with you in a minute."
Several minute and 2 dresses later.
"Ok, Who out here needs me sooo much that I had to end a very important phone call!" A raven-haired owner came marching out.
Opal stood there stunned for a second. "You're… You're thee Azula."
"Yeah, So what of it?" Azula snapped back. "Look I have more important things to do right now. So are you going to buy something or not?"
Opal stood a bit flustered. "Well.. I.. we wanted to make a complaint…. about.. about…"
"Well spill it out?" Azula looked around. "Do you not like my dresses?!"
"Oh! No… I. I mean yes we do love your dresses." Opal studdard.
"So what is the problem?" Azula moved forward. Her Alpha scent filling the room.
"Well… your employee." Opal looked at the attendant, who was filing her nails watching the show. "She.. she umm. She didn't want us to try on dresses.
Azula looked at the attendant. "Well, I pay her to keep the losers out."
Asami came out of the dressing room. "Opal, let's just leave."
Azula crossed her arms. "Look, I have plenty of teens coming in here, just to try on dresses and not buy anything. I need to weed them out."
Opal took her friend's hand and began leading her out. "Ok, Asami let's get out of here.
"Asami?" Azula questioned, "As in Asami Sato?"
Asami turned back toward the Alpha and nodded her head.
Azula's demeaner changed completely. "Miss Sato… I had no idea that it was you that graced my store with your presence."
Azula looked back at her attendant. "You're fired. Get your things and go. Now."
The attendant's jaw dropped. But, with one look from Azula, she quickly began gathering her things.
Azula took Asami's hand and began leading her back into the store. "I am so sorry for my attendant's behavior."
Asami looked around confused, but then stopped. The Alpha stopped and looked at her.
"Miss Azula.." Asami began but was quickly interrupted.
"Please call me Azula. I mean we're practically best friends." The Alpha smiled.
Asami slowly pulled her hand away. "Azula… Just …. Perhaps .." Asami started. She looked at the Alpha and felt a bit more fortitude. The Omega regained her composure and stood firm. "There is no need to fire the girl. I suggest that you treat all potential customers with the utmost respect. After all, you are supposed to be first-class. As such you should treat anyone who comes in here with a high degree."
Azula smiled. "I agree." She looked at the attendant, "You're not fired. We will get Miss Sato whatever she wants." The attendant put her things back at her station and stood next to Azula.
"Now, how can we help you?" Azula smiled.
Asami looked at Opal, who gave her a thumbs up. "Well, there is a formal dance tomorrow evening."
Azula clapped her hand. "I have the perfect piece! I am in the finishing phase of this one-of-a-kind dress. A one-of-a-kind, just like you Miss Sato. Please follow me to the back." Azula looked at the attendant. "Close the store. We will be giving Miss Sato our full attention!"
Asami and Opal followed Azula down a small corridor. Azula punched a few numbers on a keypad and a door unlocked. "No one dares enter my design studio. But for you Miss Sato, I have something special." She opened the door and they entered.
Opal was in awe looking around the famous Azula's private design studio. She had sketches of hundreds of dresses. Fabrics of assorted colors and textures displayed around the room in the most organized manner. Dozens of unfinished projects and necklaces on mannequins that bedazzled her mind.
"Are these real?" Opal asked looking closely at one of the necklaces.
Azula turned quickly, but smiled. "Yes, of course. When I design, I think with surgical precision. Rather than the dresses complimenting the jewelry. The jewelry are supposed to compliment my dresses. Hence, my dresses are more valuable than the jewels."
Azula went behind a panel curtain. "Ahhh, here is the piece I think Miss Sato would look perfect in." She held a crimson red dress with the utmost care and presented it to Asami. Both Omega's mouths opened in awe. Asami wasn't knowledgeable about fashion, but what she did know… was this dress was breathtaking."
"May I?" The pale teen asked reaching for the dress.
"Anything for you." Azula held the dress out for the Omega's to feel.
"It is sooo soft. I've never felt anything so soft. How did you make it shimmer?" Asami asked.
"The crystals are woven into the silk with a special technique that I developed. The silk comes from special Mori caterpillars that I bred on my own. No others like them exist in the world." Azula looked at her creation.
Opal looked at Asami. "I think we found your dress. Try it on."
Asami looked at Azula, who handed her the dress. "You may change in my private room."
After a few minutes the door opened and the Omega emerged.
"Asami, You look … stunning." Opal said in awe. "If I wasn't with Bo and you weren't with Korra, I'd totally jump the fence for you."
Azula had to sit down so the Omega's wouldn't see her going stiff.
"I…I think I'll take it but…" Asami said looking in the mirror.
"But what?" Azula asked startled. "Is there something wrong…"
"Umm no; this is beautiful." Asami said turning. "It just.. I don't think it fits me perfectly."
"Miss Sato, You're with Azula. I will personally fit this dress to you. Right now. I am at your service. "
Asami looked at Opal. Deep down Asami was beginning to feel more self-assured. After all she had the most ill-tempered, most talented designer at her beck and call. The fact that she had another Alpha obliging her every wish made her more certain about herself.
A couple hours later, Azula was done with her finishing touches. "Miss Sato, If I may be so bold. You. Are. A. Godess."
Asami looked at herself in the mirror. She never really thought of herself as attractive until this very moment. "It's absolutely amazing. Miss Azula, I see why you are so sought after. What do you want for this?"
Azula stood there in thought. "Well, this is what I consider one of my best dresses."
Asami looked at her.
"Tell you what. This dress is on me. BUT from now on; every dress you get for any event, comes from me. Exclusively, no exceptions. AND whatever jewelry comes with the dress, must be worn with said dress. After all it is what makes my designs so exceptional. I will give you fair pricing and you must let everyone know they are Azula Fashions."
Asami smiled and took Azula's hand. "I wouldn't have it any other way."
Azula smirked. "Miss Sato. If you don't know of any hair-dressers. I can recommend one for your special occasion tomorrow."
"Would you?" Asami excitedly replied.
"I will make the call tonight." The Alpha noted on her desk.
"Azula?" Asami paused.
"Yes." The Alpha responded.
"Got anything here for Opal?" Asami smiled at her friend.
Opals eyes widened and she nearly fainted.
"Anything for you Miss Sato." Azula bowed.
