Here is Day 3. It's pretty short as I didn't have much inspiration for it at the time.

Thank You DeniMarie31 for favoring CoLu Week 2016!


Day 3: Online

Erik couldn't stop laughing as Lucy switched form glaring at him to the box in front of her.

He'd told her not to do it. He'd told her ordering clothes online would only lead to disaster, but she hadn't listened to him.

He had no problem telling her I told you so.

The web page had showed Lucy a beautiful royal blue knit sweater. She'd fallen in love with it instantly. There was no physical store, so Lucy decided to order it without looking at the reviews.

The box in front of her did not house a royal blue knit sweater. Instead, there was a canary yellow monster of what could be called a sweater. She could already tell it was too big. The yellow was so ugly, calling it canary yellow was an insult to the color. It looked scratchy, and so flimsy, she was sure it would break apart after one use.

This was unacceptable.

Erik was still laughing, holding his sides as if they pained him. Once he managed to calm down a little he said, "Maybe you should try it on."

The horrified look at the thought of having it anywhere near her set him off again. She glared at him. "This isn't funny Erik."

"Really? I think it's hilarious," Erik grinned at her. "It made my day."

Lucy sighed, "Of course it would. Any opportunity to tell me I told you so."

"Well…"

"Don't say it," She warned.

"I told you so."

And that was the story of how Erik ended up spending hours on the phone with the clothing company, making sure they understood that Lucy was not an extra-large and that shit yellow was definitely not royal blue.

They were issued a refund, and Lucy never went online shopping again.
