Chapter 14: Shopping
Alice headed to the mall with glee and excitement. She couldn't wait to see Drake outside of school. As she entered the mall, she looked around at the beautiful scenery. In her royal life, she never went to a mall because her clothes would be tailored by a personal tailor who designed her clothing. The chipmunk made sure she packed enough money for clothes and food.
Suddenly she saw her dream man. Drake was that sexy aloof guy with albino fur and the most dashing red eyes she's ever seen. Alice felt like shaking in her boots, but she played it cool. She headed over to Drake playing it cool before tapping him on the shoulder.
Drake turned around and smiled at her. "Hey, you made it." he said.
Alice nearly melted seeing his smile. "Y-Yeah, I'm here!" she said. "So how are you?"
Drake frowned at the question, nervously putting his hands on his head. "Well…"
"Is something wrong?" Alice asked, worried.
"Brother, I just bought this amazing dress!" a voice called out. The two turned around and saw Topaz, Drake's younger sister.
Alice's eyes widened, immediately recognizing her from school. The chipmunk was jealous of the bat due to Topaz's amazing body and ability to get any guy she wanted. Topaz was also arrogant and quite bitchy at times, which irritated Alice till no end. The bat wore a green bodycon dress that clinged to her hourglass figure with black heel boots that had all the boys staring. She even got a few guys trying to get her number, in which she denied.
"What's she doing here?!" Alice thought.
"That's great, sis.." Drake replied, uninterested. "Anyways Alice, this is my sister Topaz."
"Yeah..we met…" Alice whispered.
Topaz stared at the chipmunk with a smirk. She felt superior towards the chipmunk due to her good looks. However she knew Alice was almost as popular as Topaz...except she was quite scary and too intimidating to the boys to ask out.
"Indeed." Topaz said, crossing her arms. "I didn't know you were bringing her, brother."
"I told you I invited my friend!" drake protested. "You're the one who was invited last minute!"
"You invited her?" Alice asked.
"Well...actually our parents made me take her at last minute." Drake replied. Topaz did a hair flip which made Alice growl silently.
"Very well...so where do we go?" Alice asked, trying to keep her cool.
"Hmmm..well I do want some bikinis!" Topaz cheered.
"You have like fifty of those…" Drake muttured.
"Pssh, you can never have too many bikinis! Come on!" Topaz replied, grabbing the chipmunk's hand. Alice was taken by surprised as she was being dragged to the store. Drake shrugged and followed the girls.
Topaz was amazed at all the selection of sexy swimsuits and bikinis that the store offered. Alice decided to enjoy this moment and pick out a bikini to impress Drake. It was a cute white bikini with red polka dots. Drake sat outside the dressing room while Topaz followed, going into a separate room to try on a bikini.
Alice changed from her clothes to a bikini and smiled proudly at herself in the mirror. While she had a flat chest, she did indeed have a nice pair of shapely hips and cute legs. She headed outside her dressing stall to show Drake.
"So what do you think?" Alice asked, giving a cute but sexy pose. Drake blushed slightly, giving a small smile at the chipmunk.
"You look really nice, Alice." he replied.
"Hehe...Thanks!" Alice replied, secretly feeling bothered by the compliment.
"Just nice? That's all he could say? Does that mean I'm missing something? Am I not pretty enough for him?!" she thought to herself.
"What do you think, guys?" Topaz asked from behind.
The two turned around, making Alice's jaw drop and Drake's eyes widened. Topaz was in the same red polka dot bikini...except she definitely filled it it out more than Alice especially in the bust area.
"Her boobs...are so damn big…" Alice thought, mentally comparing their chests.
"T-Topaz, that's too small for you!" Drake said.
Topaz ignored her brother and posed in the bikini. "I don't care, it's absolutely cute!" she replied before looking at alice in the same bikini. "Especially cuter on me than on her." she whispered.
Alice heard her and rage started to build up, making a flame surround the chipmunk. "Say that louder, you hussy!" she yelled.
Topaz's eyes widened. "W-Who are you calling a hussy?!" she asked, becoming furious.
"You, you idiot! Wow, did you lose your hearing by messing around with so many guys?!" Alice asked.
Topaz glared at the girl, not afraid to fight her. Suddenly Drake got in between the two to prevent the fight
"Ladies, ladies! Stop this fighting!" he instructed. "We're here to hang out, right?"
The girls sighed. "Yeah, whatever.." they said in unison. Drake sighed and sat down on the chair.
"That little tramp...messing up my "date" with Drake..ooooh I'm close to snapping her neck." Alice thought.
'Who does that flat chest loser think she is...she may be the princess of this land, but at school she's nothing!" Topaz thought.
The three spent time with each other while both Alice and Topaz tried to one up each other, for example finding the best outfits. Drake however watched the girls interacted and didn't even bother to stop them. If there was one thing he learned: is to never get in between two girls' rivalry.
After heading to their tenth store today, the two girls rushed to the same sexy red dress that was perfect for a date night. Both Alice and Topaz argued over who gets the dress.
"Oh big brother, do you think this dress will look sexier on her or on her?" Topaz asked, giving him a wink.
"You slut! That's his brother, you can't be asking such things!" Alice protested.
Topaz growled at that insult. "Why you…"
Suddenly a tall woman got in between the girls before they could do any damage. "Excuse ladies, I'm afraid you're disturbing our customers !"
"Who they hell are you?" Topaz asked.
"I'm the manager of this store, and you two are suspended from this store for three months!" she replied.
"WHAT?!" Alice and Topaz said in unison.
The two ladies soon walked out with drake following them, relieved that the fight was over.
"W-Why don't we get some lunch?" Drake asked nervously.
The three sat down with their food at the food court. Drake started eating his pizza, relaxed and content while his sister and friend ordered a jumbo hotdog. Topaz winked and slowly inserted the hotdog in her mouth, getting the surrounding boys' stares and attention.
"Damn...wish I was that hotdog…" a guy muttured.
Alice growled silently and attempted to do the same thing Topaz was doing: being sexy. The princess slowly started to insert the hotdog in her mouth, but immediately started to shove it in her mouth, she started to wave her hands signaling that she was choking. While Topaz smirked, Drake rushed behind Alice, doing the Heimlich maneuver until the hot was spit out of Alice's mouth, landing on Topaz's face.
"Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww!" Topaz screeched.
Alice breathed in and out, finally feeling air again. "Wow….thank you for saving me, Drake.." she said.
Drake sat back down in his chair. "No problem, but what were you thinking?" he asked.
Alice blushed, trying to figure out an explanation. 'Oh...I was just...really hungry…"
Drake nodded. "Well make sure to be careful." he warned.
"This sucks, I wanna go home!" Topaz whined.
Drake at the window, seeing the sunset outside the mall. "Well, it is getting late. Alice, I'll walk you home, but do you mind if we drop off Topaz first? Our house is on the way."
"Sure, no problem." Alice said.
"I need to take a shower, I smell like hotdog thanks to you!" Topaz yelled.
"Calm down, that's just the smell of all the "hotdog" you get in the janitor's closet." Alice replied, which made the bat growl.
The three walked to Topaz and Drake's house as the sun slowly went down. While this wasn't Alice's ideal of a good time, she had fun. Besides, she spat hotdog on Topaz which highlighted her day. Drake knocked on the door because he didn't have a key to the house yet.
The door opened, which revealed a curvaceous, white bat with a tanned muzzle, stunning teal colored eyes and a flirty smile which caught Alice's attention. She wore a black leotard and pink tights and a black headband. She also had shorter hair than Topaz.
"She has bigger boobs than Topaz…" Alice thought.
"Why kids, you're home!" the bat cheered.
"Hello, mother…" Drake greeted. Topaz stormed into the house with a pout on her face, ignoring her mother.
"Topaz, what's wrong with you?" the bat mother asked.
"Thanks to her I got hotdog all over myself! I'm gonna take a shower!" Topaz yelled.
"Well then, don't let the door slap you on the way in." the mother muttured. "You know, people ask if me and Topaz are sisters. It's like I'm forever twenty years old…" she gushed/
Alice smirked at her comment. "I like her, she's sassy." the chipmunk thought.
"So who's your friend, Drake?" she asked. "I'm Rouge, Rouge the bat." Rouge added.
"Well mom, this is Alice." Drake replied.
"Princess Alice Acorn." Alice corrected, shaking the mother's hand.
Rouge gave a warm smile. "Why you're the Princess of Acorn!" she cheered.
Alice chuckled softly. "Yeeah..that's me, miss."
"You know, dear..I actually knew your father King Sonic." Rouge said, recalling the memories of her friends.
"You..did?" Alice asked.
"Of course...oh I remember like it was yesterday." Rouge replied. "If you want, we could discuss it over dinner." she suggested.
"If you value your life...you'll decline…" Drake whispered. Alice remember Drake's comment about his mother's terrible cooking.
"That's okay, Ms. Rouge. I had a big lunch but thanks anyway." Alice replied.
Rouge giggled slightly. "Aw, alright. So Drake, you're going to walk this nice girl home, right?"
"You better, because I taught you better than that..." a figure behind Rouge said.
