|
|
Samuel walked with a worried pace towards his shop, A Tux of Class. Turning the corner, his heart sank as he realized that once again, his latest shipment of materials had not arrived. 3 days behind schedule now, and Samuel's supplies wouldn't hold out much longer.
What the devil could be detaining my supplies? The first Wednesday of every month, like clockwork, a fresh shipment. Now it's Saturday with no sign of so much as a thread and there won't be soul alive trying to bring anything to town on a Sunday. Something has to be going on and I'm not sure I'm going to like what it is. Samuel thought to himself as he finished the trip to the shop. He turned the key, opened the door, and flipped his sign from Closed to Open. As he stepped inside, however, he found a letter on the floor.
"No time for this now." The tiger softly said aloud to himself. He made for the front register counter and stuffed the letter away inside a drawer. Now it was time for business, but how much longer would it last without fresh cloth? |

Julia had been waiting for the shop to open, she had accidently torn her garter betl and needed a new one. She also wanted to see if her could make her a new skirt seeing as how she was bored with her old on. The timid squirrel walked in and stood in front of the register. "H...Hello sir, i was wondering if you had any shades of green to make a new skirt." She wanted to pick out the colors of course so ath they matched her top. |

Aedan walk into the store in a hurry. He had a message for someone by the name of Samuel, but he saw the female squirrel, so he kept he mouth shut and backed up, waiting politely _________________ I dance with the devil and dream with the demons, fell asleep with death and fell short of breath

Samuel looked up at the timid squirrel with a slight frown. "Unfortunately, miss, I am currently unable to make anything new from scratch. However, I should still have a few skirts in stock that I could simply alter." The tiger proceeded to head from behind the counter through racks with thinning numbers of clothing items. He came to the skirts and found that there were not a lot of green ones left. One that he immediately thought would work well was essentially a 2 piece skirt. There was a front and back part that were laced together with a brown leather cord at the sides.
"I like this design as it is rather easy to adjust to several sizes by either tightening or loosening the laces at the sides. If you would prefer something else, though, it may have to wait until I get some fresh cloth in." Samuel said. |

"It looks a bit....i don't know...unrevealing..." She leaned against the counter with her arms under her chest. "When you get...supplies, think you can alter it to something fitting for an 'actress'" |

"I'm sure I could come up with something, as soon as the shipment arrives, that is. Was there anything else I could do for you?" |

"A new garter belt would be nice..." She held up her torn one. "Or perhaps yo could fix this one." She smiled watching him. "I haven't been in here before so i don't know what to expect. Though i could say i didn't expect the tailor to be so cute." |

Samuel blushed a little at the having been called cute. Not the comment most of his first-time customers made and while normally he would be thrilled, his current dwindling supplies pushed the idea of flirting far from mind. "Repairing is more difficult because of the lace, but since garter belts are mercifully small, it shouldn't take too much of my supplies to make a new one."
Samuel's ears perked at the news. What is the old man up to now? It may be a good thing to read that letter soon, though.

Samuel decided that he would check the letter as he got out the plans for a new garter belt. He had only seen the sealed side when he picked it up, so he decided to flip it over. The name on the front said enough, but he opened it anyways to get the details.
Dearest Samuel,
I am left in an awkward position with you. My father has passed and so it is I who now holds the power over your shipments. With father gone, would it be too much to ask that we try a second chance? I hate to force a meeting like this, but my father was a business man and he has taught me well in the trade. So, what will it be, Samuel? Will you try your hand at a new supplier, or would you be willing to at least try to find that love for me inside you once more? I know what you must be thinking of me now, but come to New York and I will explain it all. I know I'll see you before long. After all, what choice do you have in the matter?
All my love,
Vivienna DuLacc
Samuel's anger flooded him and he lost himself in it for a moment, pounding the counter loudly before crumpling the paper and tossing it away. A few deep breaths and Samuel looked over the pattern for the garter. He needed to stay calm and focus, and leave for London by Monday. In the meantime, he would have to finish out the business day today and take the time tomorrow to prepare.
Vivienna, do you truly know what it is that you do to me now? |
