~ Shopping (Part 2) ~
Katan had done his preparations before going on this trip. The boutique they entered was big, beautiful and luxurious. The very definition of rich. Even chibi Rosiel-sama admitted that they had some taste in clothes. Katan also made sure that the boutique was far away from Setsuna. He didn't want anyone interrupting his precious time with chibi Rosiel-sama.
Chibi Rosiel-sama folded his arms and looked around the boutique. Sure, the clothes are okay and everything, but they don't have anything that I like. Some skin-tight leather clothing would be nice……Then, suddenly-
"Rosiel-sama, why don't you try these clothes out first?"
The chibi turned around to find Katan holding a pile of clothing. He eyed the clothes suspiciously. I trust Katan's dress sense, but, his mind added, with our size difference now, who knows what he will try to make me wear……
Before chibi Rosiel-sama could say anything, Katan pushed him towards the fitting rooms.
"Now, Rosiel-sama, see if you like these outfits," Katan smiled.
Chibi Rosiel-sama gave Katan a glare, took the clothes, strode into the fitting room and slammed the door shut, locking it. He didn't want to try on the clothing but remembering Katan's happy expression, he gave a shrug and started taking off his clothes. Besides, he was a teeny bit curious to see what kind of clothing Katan chose for him. The chibi then took up a piece of clothing and tried to put it on. He tried, but he couldn't. Chibi Rosiel-sama stared at the offending piece of cloth. Why isn't there any hole here? And what is that ribbon doing there? And all those extra bits of cloth everywhere……
~ 10 minutes later ~
"Kaaataaaaan!!!"
"Yes, Rosiel-sama?"
"I don't know how to put these stuff on," the chibi said softly. Don't worry, Rosiel-sama. Let me help you," Katan prayed that Raphael's 'cure' would work as he entered the fitting room.
At the sight of an angry chibi Rosiel-sama naked, surrounded by piles of clothing, Katan's blood rushed up to his face but thankfully not spurting out through his nose. Silently thanking Raphael, he happily started dressing up the chibi. After a while, he was done.
"You look beautiful, Rosiel-sama," Katan said, taking a step back after dressing chibi Rosiel-sama up in one of the numerous outfits.
Chibi Rosiel-sama looked at his reflection in the mirror. These clothes are nice, he admitted grudgingly. Katan hand managed to get him something similar to his usual style. It may not be leather, but it was still comfortable and striking. The chibi subconsciously struck a pose, enjoying the smooth feeling of silk against skin. Then, he realized something.
"Katan, What's this?" The chibi held up a piece of clothing.
"It's a skirt, Rosiel-sama."
"I know it's a skirt. I'm asking you why did you dress me up in a skirt?" chibi Rosiel-sama was getting angry again.
"Because it looks good on you, Rosiel-sama," Katan answered, smiling.
Chibi Rosiel-sama gave up the fight. After all, Katan was right.
"May I help you, sir?" A sales assistant suddenly poked her head round the door which Katan had forgot to lock.
"No, thank you. We can handle it ourselves," Katan gave the woman a polite smile. Damn! Why this woman show up suddenly? I was having so much fun alone with Rosiel-sama!
Unfortunately for Katan, the sales assistant did not get the hint. "Are you shopping with your daughter? She is very beautiful and cute." The sales assistant then made a big mistake. She reached down and gave chibi Rosiel-sama's cheek a pinch. O___O
"Iteeee!!!!" Chibi Rosiel-sama slapped the woman's hand away angrily. "How dare you touch me, you filthy human!! And, I am NOT Katan's–" The rest of his sentence was cut off as Katan clamped his hand over the chibi's mouth.
"I'm very sorry," he said, bowing to the surprised sales assistant. "She's very touchy and she doesn't like strangers. We'll just take these clothes." Katan handed the woman a few of the nicest outfits. The woman took the clothes and went out of the fitting room hurriedly.
Katan let go of chibi Rosiel-sama. "I'm sorry, Rosiel-sama. Please forgive me."
"How dare that evil woman touch my face!!! I am going to burn this place up!!!" Chibi Rosiel-sama held up his small hand and summoned fire. But instead of the firestorm he expected, all that appeared on his palm was a small flame barely enough to light a candle. He stared at his hand in horror. Chibi Rosiel-sama had forgotten that his powers had been reduced to the same stage as his body.
Katan took advantage of the chibi's momentary horror to pick him up bodily, pay for the clothes, rushed out of the boutique and back to Heaven before chibi Rosiel-sama could do any real harm.
"Let me go, Katan! Let me go!!! I want to burn up that horrible woman!" the chibi wailed.
"No, Rosiel-sama, you should not to that. Instead, why don't you take a bath and then you can wear your new clothes." Katan said, holding up chibi Rosiel-sama's new outfits.
The chibi took one look at his new clothes and his anger dimmed. He wanted to get out of his current clothing, and the woman's touch made him want to clean himself, so –
"All right, Katan." And chibi Rosiel-sama obediently went to the bathroom.
~ A few minutes later ~
"Kaaaaataaaaaan!! Help me scrub my back!"
"Yes, Rosiel-sama." Katan happily joined chibi Rosiel-sama in the bathroom. His dream had come true. He can now dress the his Rosiel-sama up, bath Rosiel-sama and maybe make sure that his Rosiel-sama slept and ate properly. This was heaven for him.
~ An hour later ~
"Katan, can I get out now? I want to wear my new clothes." Chibi Rosiel-sama looked at Katan who was still happily scrubbing the chibi's back.
"No, Rosiel-sama. You must clean yourself properly, first."
~ Two hours later ~
"Katan, can I get out of the tub now? I'm turning into a prune." The chibi whined.
"No, Rosiel-sama. You are not turning into a prune. Let me bath you some more." Katan said.
~ Six hours later ~
"Katan, can I get out now?"
