Chapter 6: Awkward Attributes

           " Ok, now here's where the embarrassing part comes in, we'll need to get you some undergarments, that includes bras and u-underwear..." Steven blushes, Steven and Spinel walk over to the underwear and bra section, Steven blushes while trying to avoid the section.

" Oh shoot, Spinel might not know her size... WAIT! WOULD THAT MEAN I MIGHT HAVE TO HELP HER WITH THAT!? EVEN AROUND HER!... AND HER!?... oh shoot... this might get a little awkward..." Steven thinks to himself,

" What are these strange cup-like shapes with strings attached to them?" Spinel asks,

" O-oh they are bras, they basically go around your-..." Steven stops, he shows movement around his chest for an example, Spinel looks at Steven, then at the bras, then at her chest, and then back at Steven.

"There are so many different sizes, how will I know which is mine?" Spinel asks,

" O-oh d-don't worry about that, I'll help you with that," Steven stutters, he blushes while trying to look for sizings that might fit Spinel. Steven grabs a few options,

" Ok Spinel, I'll check the fitting, this might get a bit awkward and you can tell me to stop if it's too much but I just want to see if these options will work," Steven says,

" Ok..?" Spinel says, Steven slowly moves the bra closer to Spinel's chest, his breathing starts to stutter and his hands start to shake, sweat starts dripping from his forehead and he closes his eyes as he gets closer, the bra hits Spinels chest. Both Spinel and Steven are blushing,

" O-ok Spinel, h-how does it feel? Does it seem to fit ok?" Steven stutters with his eyes closed,

" O-oh ummm... hm, this one might be a little too big for my size...?" Spinel replies, Steven steps the bra back and he opens his eyes.

" Ok, not a problem, I have a couple more options here then," Steven says, Steven grabs another pair of bras and repeats the cycle again with his eyes closed,

" Ok, how do these feel?" Steven asks,

" Hm, these ones might have a tight fit, they might be a little too small," Spinel replies again, Steven steps the bra back,

" Ok, I have one more pair, and if this one doesn't work then I'll grab different sizes from these ones," Steven says, Steven hangs the first two bras on a rack and grabs the last bra, he slowly does the cycle again,

" Oh come on just stick it on!" Spinel shouts, she grabs Steven's wrists and pulls him and the bra closer to her chest, a few customers look near Steven and Spinel's direction. Steven, which was holding the bra from its strings, is now touching Spinel's gem while the strings lay over his thumbs that were applied onto Spinel's chest from her pulling on his wrists, Spinel and Steven blush hard,

" H-hey, this fits alright, these might work," Spinel says, Steven looks down at his hands and starts blushing, he lets go of the bra and steps back.

" S-sorry Spinel, I didn't mean to-.." Steven apologizes,

" Ah don't worry about it, it's my fault for pulling you like that," Spinel says,

" O-ok... But that size fits? That's good, may I see the bra?" Steven asks, Spinel hands him the bra, Steven checks the tag and the hanger for a size letter and number.

" Ok look for this letter and this number on any bra you like, this will be the size you wear," Steven explains,

" Ok simple enough," Spinel starts looking around the aisle for bras, Steven takes a breath and sits down.

" Whew, good thing that's out of the way, WAIT I FORGOT ABOUT THE UNDERWEAR!" Steven thinks to himself,

" H-hey Spinel, have you found any bras you like?" Steven asks,

" Oh yeah, I have a few options in the size you showed me," Spinel says,

" Ok, let me show you the underwear section," Steven says, Steven grabs Spinel's hand and takes her down to an underwear aisle.

" Ok here is the underwear, they are the things to put on before you put on some pants, I'll uh, let you handle this one on your own, I believe you've got the gist of where I'm going, so I'll let you pick your own size and underwear, I'll just be around while I let you handle that," Steven explains,

" Ok, thank you Steven," Spinel says,

" Mhm," Steven says, Spinel sets her bras down and looks at the various types of underwear, she picks out some average comfy and athletic underwear to try them out for her sizes too. Spinel walks over to Steven,

" Ok, I've got what I needed, but what else should we look for?" Spinel asks,

" Heh, that's for you to decide, I just wanted to get you some undergarments before you start looking around for something you would want," Steven says,

" Wait so I can go and pick out what I want!?" Spinel lights up,

" Well yeah! you did want to go shopping for new clothes," Steven says,


" Yay!" Spinel says, Spinel wanders around the store, Steven smiles and follows Spinel,

" So whatcha wanna look for?" Steven asks,

" Hm, I don't know, I want to try to look for more stuff similar like the pajamas you gave me, but also probably extend my color palette instead of just pink," Spinel explains,

" Ok, let's see what they got, then if find some things then you can try them on in the dressing room over there," Steven says, Steven points over to the dressing room, Spinel walks around the aisle,

" Hey Spinel, I'll be right back, I'll go grab a cart so you can stick your clothes in it," Steven says,

" Oh ok-" Spinel says,

" Be right back!" Steven says, Steven walks off, Spinel sticks her arm out but retracts it back, Spinel looks around and finds various shirts, sweaters, and hoodies. She grabs a few and holds onto them while she puts a couple back that she doesn't like, she pulls out a black hoodie with an upside-down heart on it, and her face lights up when she sees it.

" Ok Spinel I'm back with a cart, oh it looks like you have a few things picked out already, you can stick them in the cart here so it's not such a hassle carrying them while trying to find new clothes," Steven explains,

" Steven look what I found!" Spinel says, she holds up the hoodie with the upside-down heart.

" Woah! What are the chances of that, does it fit?" Steven asks,

" I don't know, I'll have to try it on!" Spinel says, Spinel puts the clothes she found in the cart,

" Hm let's see what you have," Steven looks through the clothes Spinel chose while Spinel still looks around for more.

" Hm, I'd never thought you were into edgy clothing, you have a bit of black clothing here," Steven says,

" Yeahh, I figured that with the new look and all, I might as well pick out some stuff that looks similar to it I guess," Spinel explains,

" Yeah and you have some white and pink options here too," Steven says, Spinel heads over to the shorts and pants, She picks out some torn jean shorts and some torn jeans, some being black. She sticks them in the cart and Steven follows with a smile,

" Hey Spinel, I have a couple of options here for ya when we were coming to the pants section," Steven says, he holds up a thin long sleeve shirt that was light pink with darker pink stripes on it and a pink sweater with pink hearts scattered around the sleeves and base of the sweater.

" Woahhh," Spinel says, Steven hands Spinel the clothes,

" Ok, I figured another need you'll want are some socks and shoes, for more comfort of course," Steven says,

" Oh yeah sure," Spinel says, Spinel follows Steven to the socks section,

" Here are some options, if regular socks don't really work out then there are always stockings," Steven says,

" S-stockings?" Spinel stutters,

" They are like socks but they are much larger and can go to your knees or thighs," Steven explains, Steven lets Spinel pick out some socks and stockings and they head over to the shoes.

" I'll let you pick out some shoes if they are your size of course," Steven says, Spinel looks around and picks up a pair of shoes she likes,

" Ok, I feel like that's everything we need if you want to look around for more you can Spinel," Steven says,

" Hm, I feel like that should be good enough for now, well I'm going to go try them on, care to let me know how they look when I come out," Spinel says,

" Sure thing," Steven says,
