Chapter 299 - Part 2/2
🕑 Added 2022-08-11 05:58:51 +0000 UTCThe girls were finally having their long-awaited shopping trip to get all sorts of clothing for the already ongoing fall and the upcoming winter seasons. They started out by getting new legwear, namely tights and leggings. Sophia wanted to get something colorful, and the others wanted to change their usual styles.
Ari and the blonde ended up looking at stuff on their own, and the duo eventually ended up in the underwear area of the boutique, and the tiger got pretty interested in the display there. She even went as far as talking the jaguar into trying on a very sensual set of lingerie that also featured a garter belt and straps. Ari was very against the idea in the beginning, but after Sophia mentioned the princess and how happy she would probably be about seeing her in it, she changed her mind.
That wasn’t all, though. As the jaguar is still quite shy and timid around people she hasn’t befriended yet, she refused to ask a clerk for a fitment, and it ended up being Sophia's job to make sure Ari looked good in the lingerie. Needless to say, it fitted her extraordinarily well, and the blonde got something out of it, as well.
Roughly 15 minutes later, the duo reunited with the other girls while holding a bag each. For some reason, Ari's was a good bit bigger than the one Sophia had. Also, both seemed quite embarrassed, as well.
“There you finally a-; Why are you two blushing?!” Anna spotted them first and directly started questioning the moment she saw their red faces
“…” The duo instantly turned their heads away from each other to look to the side.
“Sophia~?” Maya wasn’t a fan of this reaction, either.
“You are one lucky girl!” Sophia smiled at her, got closer to the princess, tapped her shoulder, and then looked at her cat-girl. “Maya, there’s something we need to buy for you right now! Come with me!" She then grabbed her hand and dragged her off in the direction she and the jaguar came from.
“Ari!” Anna immediately faced her girl. “What did you two do?!”
“Uhh…” She only got more embarrassed in return.
“HUH?!”
"Hmm…" Standing next to the princess, Chloe was also a little confused but then took a better look at the jaguar or the big bag she was holding. “You bought some sexy underwear and asked Sophia how it looks on you after you tried it on, right?” Just like the blonde, she can be quite sharp about the strangest things.
“H-How did you know?!”
“Just took a wild guess. Seems like I was right.”
"A-Ah…”
“S-Seriously?!” Anna got even louder. “You showed herself to Sophia in underwear?!”
“I’m not exactly sure if that even classifies as underwear in the first place…” Ari answered her without thinking.
“W-What?!”
"A-Ah…” She only repeated herself. “It’s all Sophia’s fault!”
“She made you show her?!”
“Ah, no… That was my idea… I wanted to get her opinion about it because she’s the only one I’m okay with showing…”
“?!" The princess didn't even get an actual word out in response this time.
“Wow…” Chloe was following their exchange with great interest. “Maya was right. You and Sophia are ambiguous as nothing else…”
“N-Not helping!” Ari just glared at her. “It was Sophia’s idea to get this super revealing and sensual lingerie for you, and I was too embarrassed to ask a clerk for help!"
“Super revealing and sensual?!” The princess just got louder.
“That wasn’t the important part here, Anna.” The fox-girl tried to calm her down.
"I'm pretty sure it is!" She disagreed with her.
“What about the part where Sophia made Ari buy it to wear and have fun with you? Probably during some sort of nightly activities?”
“Eh?” That part only now registered in Anna’s brain. “F-For me…?”
"Y-Yes…" The jaguar slightly nodded.
“Why…?” Thanks to all the fuss, she was a little slow right now.
“Because she’s your girlfriend and wants to show herself off to you?!” Chloe just shook her head.
"A-Ah.”
“Is that the hyper denseness the other two were talking about…? Just how bad was it before you started dating her…?”
“…” The princess decided not to answer her.
“Poor Maya…” Chloe rolled her eyes before facing Ari again. “Did she find something nice for you? There was some amazing lingerie near the entrance. A garter belt and lots of lace would look great on you!” As usual, she and Sophia were thinking quite similarly.
“…” Ari also decided not to answer her.

Afterward, once the topic was over, Maya and Sophia eventually reunited with the other three while the cat-girl was holding a bag the same size as Ari and the girls finally left the boutique. On the way out, Anna and Maya exchanged some glances to convey how they felt about all of this but decided not to make another fuss for the greater good. The greater good of them having a lot of fun with their girls during the next night, that is.
“No!” Not even two minutes after the girls had entered the first clothing store, Sophia started loudly complaining while the other five had encircled her. "That's a belt! Not a skirt!" She was pointing at a piece of fabric Ari was holding. "Actually, when we entered the store, I saw wider belts!"
“We don’t care~.”
“Urgh…” The blonde glanced at the determined expression of everyone, and her bad feeling got worse. "I might as well not wear it, and it would make little difference… Is there really any point to this…?”
“Yes!”
“I hate all of you…” She hung her head in response. “There’s no way I’m going to wear that in public, though! I don’t even want to wear it at home, but that’s all you’re going to get!”
“Deal!” The girls seemed to be okay with that.
“…” Because Sophia felt like she got tricked right now, she decided to not engage in this topic any further and started looking for actual clothes instead.
“Make sure to hold onto this.” Chloe pointed at the piece of clothing Ari was holding before she followed after the blonde.
“Obviously!”
Once this very important detail was secured and taken care of, it was finally time for some leisure shopping.
----------------
“Okay, ignoring the earlier thing, what is everyone’s plan for their fall wardrobe?” Sophia’s mood had improved a lot again, and she was looking forward to hearing everyone’s normal ideas.
“I should be good," Chloe answered first. "I got some lighter overknees earlier, and my current clothes are more than warm enough for a possible snowstorm, even."
"…" Everyone just stared at her with their eyes wide open.
"Anyway," Maya decided it was best to ignore the crazy fox-girl and continued to conversation. “I’m interested in taking a break from white clothes for a while and go for something more contrast-y. I already got some warm black tights earlier, and now I'm planning to get a longer red skirt and a dark pullover. Maybe black, as well, to contrast my hair.”
“Oho, I like the sound of that!” Sophia seemed to be looking forward to it already.
“Interesting,” Ari tilted her head. “I was actually planning to introduce more white to my wardrobe. I’m keeping the black tights and probably a black skirt, but I saw a few nice-looking knit sweaters that might suit me earlier. There was an adorable turtle neck I saw by the entrance!”
“I bet that will look great with your hair. Basically the other way around as Maya, huh?” The blonde also was a fan of that idea. “The fall season will be pleasant to look at~.”
"I think so, too!" Chloe sounded just as cheery. Neither of them was talking about nature scenery. "What about our princess?"
“Hmm…” Anna tilted her head. “I need something a little fancy for times where something semi-official is happening, but I would default to jeans again for casual clothing. I'm a big fan of those and wore them the last winters, too. Probably combined with a top and jacket in earthen colors.”
“Ohh!” Sophia’s eyes started sparkling.
“No.” Maya just shook her head in return. “We already agreed that you aren’t getting any pants.”
“WE never agreed to anything!” She got a little loud.
“I don’t know what this is about, but I do agree with Maya.” Chloe sided with her.
“Me, too.” So did Ari and the princess.
“There’s way too much bullying in my direction going on today…”
“Didn’t you want to get a skirt in the first place?” The cat-girl just looked at her. "Because they're comfy and easy to move in?"
“T-That’s a different topic…” She turned her head away. “Anyway, I like the jeans idea, princess.” The blonde dropped the issue sooner than it even came up. “Long legs in jeans are the best~.”
“By the way, what is your plan?” The fox-girl got curious about Sophia’s idea for her fall wardrobe.
"Well," She scratched her cheek. "I got some super cute red and argyle patterned tights earlier. I absolutely love them already! It could be a little hard to combine them, though. I am rather fond of the design of the academy uniform’s skirt, so… Maybe a similar tartan-styled pattern, but probably in black and a little longer… With those colors, a lightly colored top would probably be the best. A smooth but warm white pullover with a few highlights might be nice.”
“Sounds cute!” Everyone seemed to like her idea.
“Alrighty, let’s hunt!” Sophia energetically raised her fist, and everyone started searching for their preferred outfits.
A couple of hours later, and lots of discussions, trying on, and asking the other girls for opinions on their findings, everyone found a few outfits they liked. Even Chloe decided to buy a few things she could wear at home, like some shorts and cute camisoles. Luckily, all of them weren’t short on cash because the cashier had a lot of work to do once the five finally had everything they wanted.
