Time: The Chase


Rachel stood up, holding a pair of lovely blue slippers in her hand as Holly smoothed out the ruffles on her sleeve. Her companion's dress was a magnificent, deep blue. They had found it in the closet and, being a bit too small for Rachel, it outlined her curves perfectly.

"Well? What do you think?" she asked nervously, trying to figure out what to do with her hands since she had no pockets. Holly gave her the thumbs up and smiled.

"It looks great!"

"You aren't just saying that. I'm not going out there to look like a fool, am I? Because, at the moment, you are my mirror…"

"I promise! You look fantastic."

Rachel nodded, believing her friend. Then an evil smirk spread across her face. Holly looked at her friend, backing toward the door.

"Wh-what are you doing?"

Rachel held up a dress most similar to hers except that it was a dark crimson. She also threw the slippers at Holly's face, who immediately batted them away.

"No! I refuse! You'll have to catch me first!" Holly said, bounding out the door. Rachel dropped the clothes and ran out after her friend. She could hear her panting and she ran down the stone corridor to the left. Laughing, Rachel sprinted away after her.

Holly looked back and saw the elf a few hundred yards behind her. She pushed herself forward and stole a glance backwards, to find that Rachel was no longer there. Stopping, she put her hands on her hips.

"Now where did she g—" Holly was pushed to the floor and Rachel sat on her stomach.

"You are wearing…the dress," she said triumphantly and not without tease. Holly pounded her fist on the cold granite beneath her and pushed the elf off to the side.

"Fine fine…I'm wearing the dress…under one condition…"

"Anything. I just don't want to be alone in this one."

Holly leaned it and whispered something to Rachel. She immediately burst into fits of laughter.

"Okay! Let's shake on it!" Holly said holding out her hand. Rachel, still silent with laughter, shook her hand and got up, shaking her head and walking back toward her rooms.

A/N: Yey, short, but still there…I'll have another one out soon…
