"Well, 'shoes' would be the obvious answer," Autumn said with a smirk. "But specifically black loafers that you like and fit."
mOth GIRL COME MORROW I WANT ANOTHER RP WITH YOU
“Hmmm…” He looked up, right past the loafers. “Where are they?”
"Right in front of your face, smart one," Autumn chuckled.
Alex looked around and down. “Oh! There.” He laughed at himself.
Autumn rolled her eyes with a grin. "Yup. Now all you have to do is pick a pair."
Alex looked for a while, gazing at brown, white and black pairs of the fancy shoe. Finally he picked a black pair. “How ‘bout these?”
"Sure, if you like them," Autumn said with a shrug. "They're fancy enough."
Alex gave her a look. “Do you not like them?”
"Well… I mean, they're fine, but the tassel…" Autumn bit the inside of her cheek as she glanced back at the shoes.
Alex looked down at them. “A lot of the pairs had tassels on them. Maybe that’s just a thing of the shoe company?”
Autumn shrugged. "I don't know. Honestly, you can get whatever you want."
Alex gave her a puppy-dog eyed look. “I want your opinion on what looks nice!”
"Ugh…" Autumn groaned before picking up a pair of sleek, black, tassel-less loafers. "What about these, then?"
Alex put back the first pair. “Yeah, those look good.” He grinned at her and took the box.
"Good. I hate shoe shopping…" Autumn sighed as they walked to the counter to pay.
Alex pulled out his card, greeted the cashier and set the shoes down. He handed the cashier his card and looked at Autumn.
“I understand that. It’s why I hardly ever go.” He pointed down to his ragged, worn shoes.
Autumn glanced down and chuckled at the state of his shoes. "I can see that you hardly ever go."
Alex laughed and modeled his shoes so they could be seen at a ‘better’ more revealing light.
“Ah, yes, you can just see how in stunning shape they are.”
(Dude, my sister got an 800-page book yesterday…)
"They're stunning. I can't believe they're not the hottest trend right now," Autumn joked.
(Niiiiiiiiiice what is it?)
Alex flicked his hair back. “Oh, they will be!” He laughed.
(Nightfall, Keeper of the Lost Cities book 6…
She accidentally told my stepdad she got an 800 dollar book. Lol.)
Autumn chuckled. "Definitely. Just wait until the paparazzi find out you're wearing them."
(Oooo I haven’t read that.
Also meeee I’ve done that with a 400 pager before xD)
Alex mocked surprise. “They’ll be all over them!”
(Lol. I swear, the books in the series keep getting longer. Like, the next will probably be 1000. ;P)
"Oh, most definitely! Come to think of it, I can't believe they haven't mobbed you already!" Autumn declared, holding back a laugh.
(xD Imagine people in the future lugging them around)
Alex twisted around to model the back of the shoes. “Why they haven’t mobbed me isn’t the mystery! It’s how people on the streets haven’t!”
(Lol. Book 23 is 5500 pages…)
"Oh, yes. You should definitely wear different shoes so that you don't get mobbed," Autumn said seriously, nodding.
(god 23 books?)
Alex nodded, turning back to her. “You’re absolutely right!”
(No, lol. I just made that up.
The only series that's that long – cough longer cough – is the Warriors series.)
"But not today. We're on a schedule, and I'm done shopping," Autumn said with a chuckle.
(Oh jeez the Warriors series I’m not even keeping up with anymore.)
Alex chuckled too. “Good point.” He took his shoes with a ‘thank you’.
“Let’s go.”
(Lol. I own every single book in the main arcs… Except for, like, the newest two, I think… And I think I have Moth Flight's Vision, too.)
Autumn stepped out the door with a sigh. "Finally, free from that place!"
(I have all of the first, third and fourth, and a good majority of the super editions. The others (including the second) I don’t care about.)
Alex laughed gently. “You have to admit that it smelled good in there.”
