Chapter title: Bow Tie (B)

Pairing: Gill/Angela

"Why are you wearing that?"

Gill's ears perked up at the noise and he turned to face the girl in front of him. "Why, is it a crime?" he asked coolly.

Angela frowned and glared at him. "Yes, Gilly dearest, it's a crime. A fashion crime, that is. A bow tie? Puh-lease. Everyone knows bow ties are so out of season."

Gill turned red and slowly looked at the bright red polka-dotted bow tie on his neck. "S-so?" he stuttered. "It's a free country!"

"So?!" Angela looked like she was about to burst. "SO?! Gill, you are the boyfriend of Waffle Town's fashionista – me – and I am not going to let you humiliate me by wearing that ludicrous clothing article…if it's even worth being called a clothing article!"

"Angela!" Gill whined.

She turned around. "Gilly, I know your word is the law, that you're practically the big boss around here, but when you're with me, I make the rules. And my rule is that you should NEVER wear bow ties around me! It's going to make me look bad!" she wailed.

"I don't think so, Angie," Gill said firmly. "I love this bow tie, and I am wearing it to the wedding."

"Not with me you aren't," the brunette shot back. "Candace is going to kill me if my boyfriend shows up wearing bow ties at her wedding! Seriously!" she cried. "Ask Candace! Ask Luna! Ask Julius! They'll all tell you that bow ties are out of fashion!"

"Angela!" he cried. "Will you stop it? You're really getting annoying."

She stepped back like she'd been slapped, but then immediately her composure came back. "Fine," she snapped, then whirled around. Suddenly, her pretty face contorted into a grin.

Gill gulped as she made her way over to Luke. "Hi, Angie!" the carpenter greeted energetically. "This wedding's going to be great, isn't it? I hear Candace's gonna have a huge blue cocktail table…yeah…"

"Yeah, whatever," Angela sniffed. She patted Luke's tie. "My, my, Luke, that's a really cute tie you're wearing," she said silkily.

"Y-yeah," he said. "I dunno how Dad managed to force this onto me, but hey, it looks great, doesn't it?"

"Of course!" Angela was grinning now. "And ties are seriously in season, you know, unlike bow ties! At least you have fashion sense, Lukey, unlike someone in this room." She cast a sidewards glance at Gill, who was sweating and scratching his suit.

Luke turned pink with the compliment. "Uh, t-thanks, Angela," he stuttered. "Well, looks like the wedding's about to start," he said hurriedly, checking his non-existent watch. "See ya."

"Wait, Luke, I'm coming with you!" Angela called after him. "I at least want to show up with someone with fashion sense." She smiled and winked at Gill. "See you, Gill."

Gill stared after her. Oh, yes. From now on, he was so letting his girlfriend pick his clothes.

Not that he cared, of course.
