Corsair simply smiled at her question. "It's a surprise. You'll se at the prom. Just a little custom the guy usually follows at one." He said,
He gave a light chuckle at her comment. He never found shopping torturous at all. "Well let's see. Would you like to get your dress first or shall we go and I'll get my suit?" he asked wondering what they should grab first.

She smiled. She hated surprises. One of her major downfalls in life. She was always one of those people that wanted to know now rather than later but for now she would wait and see what it was. After all prom was tomorrow and that meant she at least wouldn't have to wait long.
They stepped into the store and her eyes glanced around. She probably out of habit would have pulled her wings back in. But she had promised Cor that she would keep them out all day and so she would.
"Lets look for your suit first my dress may take a bit." she offered as she held his hand a bit tighter. She was way out of her element here and it was something she was definatly not used to at all.
"What are you looking for?" she asked as they made their way over to the area with the suits.

Corsair nodded and headed over to the suits with her and thought about he question for a moment. "Something sleek in a way. Need to look around." he said and started walking up and down the rows of suits. "Dark too. Dark clothes go well with most events. Easier on the eyes as well." he said as he stpped at one suit but didn't like the jacket's cut so he moved on. "Please let me know if you spot anything." He said

She walked through the suit section and listened to his requirements. She looked at the different jackets and the one he tried on just didn't fit him right. She saw that some hand two hanging things and others didnt.
"Do you want one with these.. tails? Or just a straight one?" she asked as she picked a nice looking one off the hanger. It had no tails but it was dark black and looked smoothe on the hanger.
"This one is nice." she said looking over at him and holding it up for him to see. She ran her hand over the soft and smoothe fabric with a smile on her face. "It seems soft."

Corsair walked over and looked the suit over. "Hmm I think it looks nice. let me try it on and we'll see." He said as he took the suit went into a changing room and after a few minutes came back out. The suit was slightly too big for him. But the style of it was exactly what he was looking for. "Well you certainly have a better eye for this than I do. I'll just have them talior it and I think we found what I need." he said then went back intot he changing room and came back out clad in his normal clothing. "Alright then. let's go get you a dress." He said

The suit did indeed look good on him. Midori couldn't help but feel like a fool just standing there smiling. But what else could she do. It really did look nice.
"I like it. I'm sure they can take it in a little. This is a magical world after all, I bet they can have it done while we look at dresses." she admitted with a shrug her wings making a swishing sound as the feather rubbed together slightly.
She turned and went over to the dress section. Huge dresses and very revealing dresses hung from hangers and were displayed on the manikins. She instantly went to the section of green dresses. She wanted something that would compliment her natural colors and something that represented her. Luckily for her the dresses were arranged by color.
Her eyes lit up on one dress inparticular. So many of them were so very formal. And well though she was royal she didn't like wearing dressed that swallowed her up. She took the dress down off the hanger. It had nude colored lace on the top some parts see through while the important parts were not. The skirt was long and full green silk that was irridenscent.
She smiled back over at Corsair and ran off into the changing room. The dress was exactly her size and some of her tatoos would show while others wouldn't. The back was low and would enable her, if she wanted, to show her wings during prom. It was perfect. She took the dress off without showing Corsair, that would be left for the next evening and jumped back into her clothing. She came out.
"This is the one. Did you have to see it on to do what you planned or can you just tell from the look?" she asked as she walked over to him the dress laying in her arms.

Corsair smiled. He had seen the dolor of the dress and that was really all he was concerned about for now. "I saw just what I needed. Which is good. i didn't need to see you with it on." He said and someone brought his suit back telling him the taloring was done. "Well thats it for clothing. SHall we head out again?" he asked

Midori could only smile as the sales man packed up her dress in a long bag that would keep it clean and protected until she needed it. Paying for it she thanked the man and returned to Cor. He had his suit and they both seemed ready.
"Sure. Has our outing ended until prom or is there more?" she asked curiously as she stepped back out into the sun.
She didn't take his hand this time. Trying not to seem like the over eager girl. Her prom dress would more than likely make the guy drool on site when he say it tomorrow. She was definatly looking forward to seeing that. But that was all the way tomorrow and right now she just wondered what, if anything, they were going to do next.

"Just an outing is it?" He said raising an eyebrow. "I thought this was a date or some such thing." He said grinning as they walked through the city. "As for if we have anything else to do. Thats up to you. I have things to do but nothing important enough to leave for a while." he said.

Her eyes did go wide at the word 'date'. So it WAS a date! Well crap! Now she felt like an idiotic fool for having thought it was just an outing not aware that an outing can turn into a date. Now she was confusing even herself.
"Then a date it is. I am afraid I haven't been able to nail down your customs on what is and is not a date." she said blushing as they walked down the street together.
"If you have nothing pressing, I must admit, I would hate for the day to end. Do you have anything in mind that you would like to do?" she asked curiously as she looked up at the boy next to her.

"Well at times the difference between the two is hard for humans to notice as well." He said shrugging. It was never like the matter came up until now.
"As for spending more time with you I'd be glad to. The problem is I don't know the city well or the Academy. So we would be wandering around looking for stuff. not that I think it's a bad idea." He said

She almost jumped for joy when he said that he didn't know where to go. Because she had just gotten an idea. One that she hoped he would enjoy. She still didn't take his hand as she was waiting to see if he would do it first.
"I have a place in mind then. Something I found this morning. But it's in the woods. Are you allright with that?" she asked looking up at him.
She pointed out across the city where the vast woods bordered it. Inside were many places but one place inparticular she wanted to share with him if he didn't mind the posibility of getting a scratch or two. But with her as a guide she would get him there in very good shape.

He put an arm around her shoulders. "I'm a big nature person. remember I grew up in the country and my favorite spot was a grove in the forest. I'll feel very much at home there." He said smiling and let her lead him to where she was wanting to show him.

Wow! An arm around her shoulders was a lot more intimate than just holding hands. Yet, he was game for her to lead him through the woods and she was glad. At least the person she had met and was getting close to seemed to enjoy the wooded areas maybe a bit less than she but still a bit.
She led him to the other side of the city passing by all the other shops and up to the beginning of the woods. A small path stretched out here but they weren't going to be on it for long. She led him along the path feeling much more at home now that ever before. She took a moment to inhale the scents of the forest. She stopped them in their path and gently took his suit from him before summoning Rosalie.
"Take these to my room, please. When you are finished you are dismissed." she said softly as Rosalie nodded and took the two bags and flew off on her fairy like wings. Midori looked over at Corsair and smiled. "That way we don't have to be so careful with them."
She led him down a small game trail and moved out of his arm because they could no longer walk side by side in the small trail. Instead she took his hand and began leading him that way so that they were still touching.

Corsair was glad that Midori had summoned Rosalie to take their things somewhere else. He let her out of his arm and held onto her had as she led them through the forest. He moved with the ease of a person who had spent much time running through the woods throughout their life. He noticed that Midori moved much better than he did. But that wasn't much of a surprise.
