Arsen turned. He started to walk to the men's section, then paused, looking back at Alexa. "Do you want to try it on first? To see if it fits, before you buy it?"

"No, it's about my size so it should fit," Alexa responded following after him. She was worried if she tried changing in the changing room she might pass out all alone, "If it doesn't fit I can alter it to make it fit."

"Suit yourself." Arsen wandered into the men's section. "But do we want to get our new clothes on after we buy them, before leaving the store?" He asked, looking through a rack of pants, trying to find the right size, and a style that wasn't him at all.

"Probably," Alexa responded sticking behind him looking at the clothes. She bit her lip before putting a smile on, "Why don't you pick out overalls or something? That doesn't seem like something you would wear."

Arsen gagged. "That sounds terrible! How can people bear to wear those hideous things?" He sighed. "Yeah, I probably should. Although I'd prefer to wear a dress, honestly."

Alexa laughed as he gagged just slightly. She had a grin and began looking for a pair, "It would be very unlike you, but you might stand out in New York City. So why don't we try to find just a pair of ugly jeans."

"That would be nice," Arsen agreed. "I feel like overalls would be a bit much, even in New York. And with the blonde hair? I'd be a farmer boy. It would be terrible." He shook his head with a rueful grin.

Alexa let out another laugh as she pulled out a pair of jeans. She held them so Arsen could see them, "It wouldn't be awful, just different okay?"

"It would be awful." He shook his head at the pants, disgust evident in his face. "Who in their right minds would ever wear something like that?"

"Plenty of people," Alexa responded tossing the pants at him. She had a smile on though she felt ready to just drop dead and sleep, "Now including you."

"I'm not in my right mind," Arsen grumbled, but he slung it over his arm. "Come on. Let's find a shirt ugly enough to clash with this."

"No, you're in your right of mind. That's why we're finding ugly clothes," Alexa responded starting to move along, "And maybe not clash with the shirt, just not your normal style."

"What are you talking about? I'm insane, can't you tell?" Arsen shook his head. "Do you want to rest for a bit? You look a little tired."

"I'll rest when I know we're safe," Alexa responded with a slight glare but forced a smile to stay on her face, "Anyway. You need a shirt."

"We might not ever be safe," Arsen said flippantly. "You can't never sleep, you know."

"I know," Alexa responded brushing off his tone, "But we're not safe while we're shopping now are we?"

"You never know." He shrugged. "There're several ugly shirts over there," he said, pointing to a rack of shirts a few feet away. "Why don't you choose for me? I will never choose something that I don't like."

Alexa nodded and walked over to the shirts. She decided to mess with Arsen's just slightly, "Hawaiian shirts okay?"

"Perfect," Arsen said, rolling his eyes. "That sounds amazing. I'm sure I'd look amazing."

"Great," Alexa grabbed a Hawaiian shirt and one that was much more plain that worked better with the jeans. She kept her back turned to him as she yawned before turning around showing him only the Hawaiian shirt, "How about this one then?"

"Perfect." It was blue, with eye-wateringly bright pink flowers. "I will look amazing in that. The girls will all be falling over me in amazement and awe."

"So this is the one?" Alexa asked with a light laugh. She tossed him the other shirt from behind her back before hanging the Hawaiian one up, "Then there you go."

Arsen caught it with a snort. "I will look amazing in it. You should be prepared to fall in love with me."

Alexa walked over to him yawning. Both to brush him off and also because she was getting tired, "Suuuuure I will. Come on let's check out and get changed."

"See? Even you admit it." Arsen thought back to the time when all they could do was argue, and he laughed to himself. He glanced at the two articles of clothing on his arm, and made a face. "What if I did shorts instead of overalls?"

"That would work," Alexa nodded walking back up to him. She liked being able to just talk and tease him. It felt like a barrier had been lifted between the two so now they could maybe become friends.

"Good. Then I don't have to wear such a hideous combination, I can tone it down a bit. With overalls and a Hawaiian shirt like this, I'll stand out, even in New York." Arsen smiled ruefully. "Let's find some shorts for me, and then we can go and find a hotel."

(…She didn't give him a Hawaiian shirt. It's just a normal shirt. Sorry I didn't make that clear enough.)

(Oh, sorry XD. That's my bad. But still… what if he did wear one? That would be amazing XD)

(It would be quite amazing, he's stuck with one now isn't he?)
