New Direction, chapter 4: The Mall


Title: A New Direction
Chapter: 4/?
Pairings: A surprise pairing!
Summary: Elisabeth had planned on spending Saturday studying chemistry and rehearsing a song for glee club, but her plans get changed.
Song/s: none
A/N: FINALLY DONE...!

Elisabeth was lying on her bed and studying chemistry. Nothing in the world was as boring as that. But she didn’t want to fail the test. Kurt, Carole and Burt were visiting Finn’s and Quinn’s place and after that they’d go to theatre. So Elisabeth would be alone for a while. Her thoughts trailed away from chemistry and then suddenly her cellphone rang. She reached for the phone and then answered. “Elisabeth”, she said and waited for an answer. “Hi! It’s me, Casimiro.” Elisabeth’s eyes widened.  “Can you come to the mall?” Elisabeth smiled. Her plans had just been changed. “Of course! See you in a little while!”

The mall wasn’t big, unlike the ones in New York. So it was a little bit easier to find someone. Elisabeth looked around and saw Casimiro sitting on a bench. She walked quickly to him and said: “Hi! Did you have to wait for long?” The boy shook his head. “No. Actually I just came. So where do you want to go first?” he asked and Elisabeth though for a minute. “H&M, if it’s okay for you”, she said. “Yeah, it’s fine”, Casimiro said and stood up. “So let’s go.”

There was so many clothes that Elisabeth wanted to try on. How could someone ever decide between a beautiful floral dress and a classy light brown shirt? She decided to go and ask Casimiro’s opinion. The boy seemed to know at least something about fashion. In the boy’s section, Casimiro was having similar problems as Elisabeth. He had red skin tight jeans in one hand and black, baggier jeans in the other hand. Elisabeth walked closer. “Casimiro, which one should I pick? This dress or this shirt?” she asked. Casimiro turned around and eyed the clothes for a while. He pointed at the shirt. “That one is simple but classy, and it might fit you better.” Elisabeth smiled. Casimiro had sense in fashion! Then the Latino showed Elisabeth the clothes he had. “I can’t decide. I think skin tight jeans are more my style, but these are cool too”, Casimiro said. Before Elisabeth could answer, someone spoke behind her: “I agree with you, Casimiro. Skin tight jeans fit you very well.” Casimiro blushed and Elisabeth turned around and saw a tall boy- well, he was tall when compared to Casimiro and Elisabeth. “Nick, why are you here?” Casimiro asked and looked at the boy- Nick. Elisabeth was sure she had heard the name somewhere before. “Why shouldn’t I? Even if H&M don’t have that kind of clothes I have… But yeah, I knew you were here and I wanted to see you”, Nick said and the shorter boy was silent for a moment. “Why did you want to see me?” he asked and Nick chuckled. “I just missed my boyfriend, that’s all.” Elisabeth was a little surprised. Nick was Casimiro’s… Boyfriend? Not that it was a bad thing, not at all. It was just… Elisabeth hadn’t expected it. “You could’ve called me. And by the way, you were over yesterday”, Casimiro spoke, and he sounded a little bit annoyed. “Are you still mad?” the taller boy asked. “Don’t be. Didn’t I already say I’m sorry?” Elisabeth felt a little bit confused. Why was Casimiro mad? Not like it was her business, but she wanted to know. Casimiro sighed. “Yeah, yeah. But I don’t like it when we have planned something nice and then you just call it off.” Nick smiled. “But I will make it up to you.” Then he turned to Elisabeth. “Nice to meet you! Are you Elisabeth, Casimiro’s new friend? I’m Nick Perry”, he said and. “Nice to meet you, too, Nick.” Nick laughed a little and said: “Now Casimiro, you will go buy those red jeans and Elisabeth buys that shirt. Then we can go get smoothies.”

“Casimiro likes the one with mango”, Nick told Elisabeth when the three were waiting in the line in the café. “We sometimes drink one together, but usually he wants it all to himself.” Casimiro shoved him gently, but couldn’t help but smile. Elisabeth chuckled. The boys seemed to be happy. “So how long have you two been together?” she asked. Well, she was curious. “Almost two years”, Nick replied. “Our anniversary is on Valentine’s day.” Elisabeth smiled. “That’s super romantic!” She noticed that Casimiro blushed, so she ruffled his hair. “But now I think that we should order”, Elisabeth said as she realized that it was their turn.

“So, you’re from New York. What is it like to live in there?” Nick asked as they were sitting on a table. Elisabeth smiled and answered: “Nice, but it’s very busy there. You have to be very careful when you are walking around in the city.” Nick nodded and spoke: “I and Casimiro are dreaming of living in Los Angeles. I’d be a fashion designer and he’d be an actor.” Casimiro had a dreaming expression on his face and Elisabeth was sure he’d do anything for his dream. “I want to be a pop singer”, she said. “Everyone is expecting for me to go to Broadway, like Kurt. But that’s not really my scene.” Casimiro looked at her and said: “You have a voice of a pop star.” Elisabeth chuckled and smiled shyly. That was what everyone told her. Then she looked at the clock and said: “I have to go now. I should be rehearsing my song for the glee’s week assignment.”

Elisabeth was tired. She had rehearsed the song over and over again. And she had to study some chemistry too. The girl yawned and picked up her chemistry book from the floor and opened it. But before she knew, she had fallen asleep on the bed.
