I DO NOT OWN ANYONE OR ANYTHING IN THIS STORY BESIDES THE OC'S.
I headed out of my room when I had finished changing and felt more comfortable, "Let's go." I said as Jeff smirked as he led me back out to his car and headed back into the small city that we currently lived in. Jeff took us to Wal-Mart since that was mainly the only main chain store that was still open in this town. Entering Wal-Mart, I just followed Jeff's lead as he led us to the women's section of clothing where we began to each tackle different clothing racks of clothing. Only difference was I didn't know exactly what I was looking for so I was mostly just browsing trying to find something that I liked or I thought was 'nice' but not too 'interviewish' as to what Jeff called it. I didn't know what 'interviewish' was nor how something couldn't be too much of it. I also didn't know how to dress to attend these shows because from what I saw, a lot of the talent how attended the show the other day in the same type of attire as me so what was wrong with wearing that to this show I was officially booked on? I understood I needed to make a great first expression and it being my first official booking, I wanted to look my best and do my best so they would like me and further book me so I needed to trust Jeff now more than ever.
"How do you feel about dresses?"
"Dresses? Um…considering I haven't worn one since like middle or elementary school…I don't know." I said truthfully as I gently shrugged my shoulders as I wasn't sure what dresses he was talking about as he stepped past me and led me towards a rack that was somewhat behind me but further to my left.
"I would see these every time I had looked up…they are nice looking…"
"But they aren't professional."
"Well, we want professional true but it is the indies April and not WWE. It's casual and you can accessorize it, can't you?" Jeff asked as I looked at the dress grabbing the material between my fingers to see how thick or thin the material itself was. "Well try it on at least, what else can we see you in?" Jeff asked as we continued browsing the different racks making outfits that were professional but now 'WWE' professional, whatever that was. I continued following Jeff while he continued stacking up a pile of clothes onto my arm. When there was a big enough pile on my arm he allowed me to go try the clothes on. I honestly didn't understand what was wrong with my interview clothes, a new pair of shoes would have been one thing but I didn't understand why I needed a whole new outfit for the day. And to even more honest, I would only wear it for only a few hours if that. I'll only wear it from the hotel to the arena where I would be changing into my ring attire then I'll change back into it to wear back to the hotel, so it's not like it was a big deal. I began to change into one outfit the other in the fitting room I was assigned. Outfit after outfit I went out to model to Jeff to get his honest opinion. I even was told to change up outfits, like try these pants with that shirt and changing everything up because one item was liked more than the other. Jeff finally decided on an outfit that he felt was suitable for this event, it was a pencil skirt which I did not like one bit because I rarely ever wore skirts but at least it was only for a couple hours and in New York where I didn't know anyone and it came with a white blouse. I still thought this was 'professional' or 'interviewish' because I would wear this to an interview personally but whatever. If this was what Jeff thought would do or be perfect for the trip to New York, then be it. Jeff never really said when this trip to New York was going to take place but I would only assume next month or as soon as a couple of weeks. I highly doubted in a couple of weeks considering that most cards are announced prior to now that's what made me think next month at some point. I changed back into my regular clothes grabbing everything out of the dressing room heading out of the room putting the items I wasn't getting where the employee told me to put them and then followed Jeff towards the shoes where we were to get some flat dress shoes. I began to roam the aisles trying to find a pair of shoes that I was attracted to and would match the outfit that I was holding in my hand. I found this pair of black shoes that I liked and I found my size before I found one of those seat things so I could sit and slide the shoes onto my feet. I looked down them as I was trying to model them to see how good they looked from every angle before I looked to Jeff who was standing beside me leaning against the rack staring at me and the shoes I was trying on. "How do they feel?" Jeff asked curiously as I looked at them a little while longer as I wasn't sure how I liked them. They felt okay and think that they would work for that day.
"They feel good…" I said truthfully nodding as I looked at them a little longer before I looked at the rack of shoes in front of me to see if I saw anything that was better than what I was currently wearing and didn't see any so I slid those shoes off and put the shoes I wore in back on. I put the shoes in the box and put the lid back on the shoe box before I carried it in my other hand following Jeff to check-out before we headed back home where I spent rest of the afternoon before training with Jeff being taught the first of many lessons on what to expect at my first booked show and giving me more tips on giving a good promo in case I was asked to give one.
