Disclaimer: I do apologize for this chapter being so short and I will make longer ones soon. I hope you enjoy the Shopping experience of Moulin Rouge. Thank you so much for reading. R&R please. That means you Rachel!
"It wont fit." Monica said trying her hardest to breathe through the dress that was two sizes too small.
"But it looks so pretty." Rachel said with a slight whine.
This had been the thirteenth dress that Monica had tried on that was two small and Rachel wanted her to get.
"You do look lovely." The Duke said with a smile.
"Thank you." Monica said trying to speak. She still felt kind of awkward taking to the Duke as if he hadn't done those awful thinks…well…actually he hadn't. This was soooooo confusing.
"Might I make a suggestion?" A small pale woman said. She was almost adorable. She wore a deep purple dress and had her hair up with small curl coming down. She wasn't wearing any makeup but it didn't matter because she was naturally pretty. She was about 5'2 and had jet black hair and green eyes.
"We have this dress." She then held up a beautiful golden and white gown. It was had beaded with was gold jewels and it had an almost plunging neckline.
"Oh my freaking God!" Rachel squealed. "That dress is amazing. Get that one. Get that one!"
I thought you said that you liked this one." Monica teased.
"Screw that one. Get it! Get it!" Rachel hollered.
"Well I need to try it on first."
"Alright." Rachel said with a disappointed look on her face. She then crossed her arms like s two year old and sat back down next to the Duke who just rested his hand on her leg and chuckled a bit.
She looked over at the Clerk who was gawking at the two of them. She wasn't hiding it either.
"Can I help you with something?" Rachel asked.
The woman just sneered and looked away momentarily just to look again.
"Is she the new one?" The young clerk then asked with a chuckle.
"Excuse me?" Rachel asked.
The Duke just chuckled and the shot the woman a mean look.
Rachel, at this point, was so confused. She was about to say something when suddenly Monica stepped out. Rachel and the Duke looked with their mouths dropped to the floor. The dress was remarkable. Everything was in that needed to be in and everything was up where it needed to be up.
"It would suck if someone at the party had the same dress." Rachel said while chuckling.
"I doubt it." The clerk said. "That dress is a one of a kind…….(expensive)
"So, what shoes will you be wearing?" The Duke asked.
"Well," Monica began. "I have my black and white tennis shoes and the ones that I came in with.
"Tennis shoes?" the Duke asked confused.
"Uh….never mind." I can wear the ones I came in with.
"Oh my." The clerk said biting her lower lip.
"what?" Rachel asked. She knew that if SHE said something it was gonna be something tomake Rachel blow her top.
"I threw them away. They were so hideous I though that, that was what you wanted me to do."
"Rachel and Monica looked in shock. "Are you allowed to do that?" Rachel asked.
"No worries." The Duke said. "You can pick out a few here.
"No, she should have asked." Rachel said. "You dont just throw away people stuff like that! That is so rude!"
"But they were hideous." The woman argued.
Rachel couldnt beleive her hear. Was this woman seriously trying to explain herself.
"I don't care if they were constructed from dog shit. It's the principle of it. You don't just throw away peoples belongings.
How would you like it if I snatched that wig off of your head and threw it away?" Rachel said. Her tone was rising more and more . The small woman then decides to get bold and got directly in Rachel's face.
"This is not a wig."
Here it comes…
"Oh really. So you hair NATURALLY look like shit?"
"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH!" Monica said in a 'you got served 'manner.
The clerk was speechless and turned away and walked back behind her register.
"You told her ass." Monica said cracking up.
"Thank you so much for all of this." Monica said when she finally caught her breath.
"Yeah." Rachel said putting her arm around the Dukes.
"Tis no problem." The Duke said with a smile.
MONICA THNKING: This is so weird. He looks good.
DUKE THINKING: Rachel look magnificent.
RACHEL THNKING: HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT!
A FEW HOURS LATER
Rachel, Monica and the Duke left the store with arms full of boxes and bags. They then set their belongings in a coach and the coach was off to Rachel and Monica's room.
"Alright lets get the rest." Rachel said to Monica.
At this point the Duke was out of breathe.
DUKE THINKING: What on earth have I gotten myself into?
RACHEL AND MONCIA THINKING: You don't want to know.
With all of their belongings on their way to the room. Rachel Monica and the Duke had just enough time to get something to eat.
"Are you ladies hungry?" The Duke asked.
"Famished!" Rachel said blowing ehr hair out of her eyes.
"Starving!" Monica siad with her hands on her knees.
"Well then shall we?" The Duke then raised his arms to the women and bowed. Rachel and Monica looked at one another and bowed as well. All three of them shared a laugh and went on their way to get something to eat. Lord knows that they were going
to need it.
