Chapter 11

Kaine wasn’t sure how to process what happened earlier. His heart hurt when Zavier had flinched away from his touch, but he didn’t know what to do with that. 

Right as Kaine was considering these thoughts and feelings, Zavier skipped over to him with happy, glittering eyes.

“What do you like to wear? Aside from formal clothes.” Zavier asked him and Kaine frowned, he hadn’t ever had the option of choosing what he was going to wear. He shrugged to Zavier who in turn smiled mischievously. “Can I help you try some styles then?” Kaine nodded slowly before suddenly being yanked away into some section of the store by Zavier.

Kaine glanced around, everything in the section that they were in looked like something Zavier would wear; the clothing mainly consisted of tightly fitted shirts of differing lengths, pants that ranged from very baggy to very slim, and some jackets of various types. Zavier looked around for a bit and made him try on some of the combinations he came up with.

“See, you just look too hot in these. I feel outshined.” Zavier muttered to himself after the first few outfits and Kaine suddenly felt his face heat up. “Let’s go to the next section.”

This area of the store was filled with bright colors that tended to be neon for some reason. Kaine grimaced, the blinding colors hurting his eyes. Zavier excitedly threw him into outfits filled with sparkles, mesh, and concerningly ripped up outfits.

After much discussion Zavier decided that he looked too weirdly happy in this style and his expression didn’t match well enough.

A few minutes passed and Zavier dragged him to a new place, he smirked.

“I don’t think you’ll stick with this one, but I think you’ll look good in it regardless.” Zavier grinned at him and Kaine looked back with a concerned look on his face.
