When Terezi woke up the first thing she did was check her calender. With her nose. The various encounters with, who she learned was her guardian, had taught her how to see the world differently. Terezi had enjoyed it immensely. It gave it a different look on everything. And she loved it.

"Oh," she noticed that tomorrow she'd have her first few classes in the new school. So she'd have a whole day to kill. Terezi looked at her pitiful closet since it sat right in front of her bed. Only a few shirts and jeans hung from steel hangers. Their mingled scents giving away how old and how worn down they were.

Terezi didn't bother changing from her dingy mint shirt and boxers. But she did pull on her Scalemates bra. Terezi hasn't worn typical women panties in a while now. She complained they were expensive and barely covered her. She turned to face her mirror and decide she wasn't going anywhere. She grabbed her toothbrush and squeezed a little bit onto her brush. She pulled apart her lips to reveal unnaturally sharp teeth.

Terezi settled for a bowl of Fruity Pebbled for breakfast. Oh dear god how she loved the scent that they expelled and how they tasted now. She giggled with every bite. Terezi decided to turn on her TV to whatever she was watching before. Another rerun of Law and Order.

Ding Ding

Terezi had only gotten halfway through her cereal when she heard the doorbell. She got up and walked groggily to her chocolaty door. Terezi opened up the door completely forgetting about her lack of pants.

"Yeah?" she rubbed her eyes.

"Well I have your pizza, but not your pants."

"Dave?" Terezi asked, surprised about his visit and remembering about her pants. His cherry scent easily remembered.

"One and only. I work delivering pizza," he explained, "So you gonna pay for he pizza or what?"

She shook her head,"I didn't even order pizza."

Dave looked down at the writing scribbled down on a mini legal pad.

"Looks like you didn't." He scratched the back of his head.

"You should take off those shades so you can read," Terezi couldn't help but laugh.

"Here," he handed her the pizza, "we share it for breakfast."

"Won't you get fired?"

"Don't care. I'll just say a dog attacked me." She stepped out of the way so Dave had a path to get in.

"Let's eat it on my couch," she suggested.

"K," Dave said already slouched down on the couch.

"Who's pizza was this anyways?" she asked, her mouth full of pizza.

"Some dude whose been ordering it for weeks. Poor guy'll go hungry this morning."

"Ha ha! Have you been delivering to to him all those weeks?"

"Most of the time. But he's such an asshole. No tip and he always slams the door in my face." He picked up another piece of pizza. "But, why aren't you wearing any pants?"

Terezi looked down at her boxers and blushed a bit. "I wasn't gonna do anything today. Just hang out in my Pj's."

"Then come with me and a couple of friends to the mall," he suggested.

Terezi picked another piece with extra peperoni dotting it. "Maybe. I don't have anything to wear though."

"Then come with me and we can buy you some clothes," Dave grinned.

She smiled back too, a piece of basil caught in between her teeth.

"God you're a messy eater. No wonder you don't have anything to wear," he observed as he looked at her soiled shirt.

"Well let me go and get changed to we can get going to the mall," Terezi said walking to her bedroom. Dave nodded.

When Terezi got another look at her closet she let out a sigh. When was the last time she's gone shopping for clothes. She looked down at the ground and found found one of her favorite shirts. And unmistakeable teal tank. Stripping off her tomato-y smelling shirt she pulled the tank on. If you looked at the sides you could see her Scalemate bra. Terezi of course, could smell it from her sides. She grabbed a cherry smelling jacket that laid on her bed to cover it. Along with a pair of jeans and red sneakers, Terezi walked out of her room and into a sweet smelling scene.

Dave had been changing in her living room out of his old uniform and into some spare clothes he kept with him.

"What's that I smell?" Dave turned around, caught off guard.

"Don't girls take forever to change? Where's all your makeup and your bag?" he asked as he pulled down his shirt.

Terezi moved closer and closer towards him, wrapping her arms around his waist.

"How much red are you wearing?" she asked, her voice bouncing.

"Damn. You really love red," Dave stated, trying not to blush.

She looked up at him, "Duh." She let go of his waist. "So are we going or what cool guy?"

By the time they made it to the mall in Dave's car his friends had already beaten him there.

"Dave!" John shouted.

"You kept us waiting," Rose teased.

"And whose this?" Jade inquired.

Terezi rose her hand to introduce herself but a few more familiar voices called out.

"Terezi?" Vriska yelled. "It is you!" Behind her were 2 others but all they did was squint at whoever Vriska was shouting at.

"Friends of yours?" Dave asked Terezi.

"Yeah!" she answered with excitement thick in her voice. Vriska made her way over to Terezi with the two figures still tailing her.

"Terezi! What the hell are you doing here?" Vriska asked.

"I came here with Dave to hang out?" she explained while looking at the two girls behind Vriska. "Looks like you came here with other people too."

"Oh yeah," Vriska answered lazily, "I came here with Kanaya and Feferi to go shopping and eat crappy fast food."

"Hello," Kanaya greeted.

"Hey!" Feferi said feverishly. They both carried shopping bags along with their own personal bags. It was clear they'd done their share of shopping.

They'd done a little catching up before Dave interrupted them. "So TZ are you gonna stay with them or come with us?" He pointed to Rose, John, and Dave behind them.

"Hey Terezi can we tag along?" Vriska asked, pointing to Feferi and Kanaya.

"The more the merrier!" Terezi put her arms around Dave and Vriska, while dragging them over to the table where everyone else sat.

As they sat down everyone laughed and talked about the most random things. After around 13 minutes Terezi sneaked off with Dave to get done what they were planning to do in the first place.

"So sneaky," Terezi snickered.

"Whatever," Dave scoffed, "Lets find you some clothes." They stood sill looking at each other. "Well?"

"Where do we start?" she cocked her head slightly. Dave scratched his head in response. He had no idea where girls would like to shop. Or any girl like Terezi.

"Over there," Dave said as he grabbed her arm and pointed it to a store he visited. He walked leisurely over there with Terezi on his side.

"Smells weird in here," she scrunched up her nose.

"Here lets look at some of these clothes." He picked up a red shirt off the rack next to him. The only design laying on it was a record.

"Dave, isn't this exactly like your shirt?"

He grabbed the back of his neck. "Yeah."

Terezi flashed a toothy smile directed at him. "Now I can be a cool kid just like you." She grabbed the shirt and pulled it to her nose.

After looking around for a while they picked up 4 shirts and 3 pairs of pants. Along with a Libra necklace she chose, saying it was her sign and represent justice.

"Look at him," a few girls behind them whispered, "He's cute. But he's hanging out with that weird chick."

She pretended not to hear but they kept on talking. "She looks so weird and has the ugliest glasses."

Dave turned around to face the girls, "Hey, shut the fuck up. You can't talk about her like that when you guys look like a pair of orange watermelons." He grabbed Terezi's side and pulled her next to him. "She's the coolest chick I've ever met. Lets go TZ."

As they turned to leave Terezi turned around to look at them one more time. She stuck out her tongue and snickered at them. Their surprised faces only filled Terezi up with the pride she carried with Dave by her side.

"Sorry you had to deal with them." Dave shook his head as he grabbed his arm and looked away. Terezi smiled at his thoughtfulness.

"I didn't care about what they were saying," Terezi said, feeling like Dave didn't have anything to apologize for. "They both smelled terrible anyways. Like burnt pumpkins."

They both sat down on a near-by bench.

"At least we got you some clothes to last you the week," he laughed weakly.

Terezi brought the bag up to her chest and clenched it tightly.

"So you've gone to that school before, the one I first met you at?" Terezi turned to him, waiting for an answer.

"Nah. I'm a first year. Aren't you?"

Terezi let out an 'omph' sound, completely forgetting about that.

"But listen if you need any help, feel free to blow up my messages. Like getting a ride. Or pizza."

"Alright cool kid."

Dave held up a fist. Terezi responded with holding up her own fist.

With a fist bump they both rose up to get home.

Dave dropped her off at her apartment, with a quick goodbye and left to his own house.

"Well," someone behind Terezi said, "I see you're spending quite a lot of time him."

Terezi turned her head to get a whiff of the stranger.

"Geez Vriska, don't sneak up on me like that. It's creepy."

"But you like him don't you," Vriska pushed.

Terezi crossed her arms. "He's a friend."

"Yeah sure. I just came over here for the mail. Fucking ridiculous that I have to walk all the way over here for mail," she paused, as if thinking over something. Then decided to stay quiet. With that done, Vriska made her way out to her own apartment.

Terezi brushed off the encounter and walked to where her door was. She'd gotten a piece of red duct tape earlier and taped it onto her own door, making it easier to distinguish from all the other doors.

When inside, Terezi fell onto her couch and threw the bag on the floor.

"Jegus that was tiring." She turned to the TV that was softly blasting a marathon a Cops all day. She'd forgotten to turn on her lights. Terezi laid in the dark thinking over everything that'd happened today. Then she thought about what Vriska was saying.

"Stupid Spiderbitch," she muttered.

In less then 3 minutes, Terezi was out cold on her couch.

Finally done. A little longer. School started over again. I'm tired. Goodnight asshats 3~
