Glass, perfumated halls and paper bags, as far as the eye stretched. It was Makochi town's mall. You had grown accustomed to such a sight sight, as you and Tsubaki had been coming often to the place, almost every week after school.

Today is no exception.

You have already gone through ten shops, most of cutesy cosmetics or mesmerizing clothes. The one you are in now is particularly known to sell accessories: earrings, piercings, nail polish, bracelets, necklaces... Your choice. And Tsubaki's. He really has a knack to pick up the best out of the best, as proven by his impeccable appearance - and the multiple bags hanging off from his arms. You don't fall short either.

As you inspect a bunch of adorable hair ties, you hear the boy's high-heeled boots come to stand behind you. He taps your shoulder with his long fingers and holds up a shiny necklace against his neck, with ruby gems dangling from the chain, bathed in gold - or what seems to be like gold. You never had a knack for telling these things apart. What you can tell is that it perfectly highlights his red lips and his shiny blue eyes. A perfect choice, as always.

"What do you think of this, {{user}}?" He asks with a grin, bending over just enough so you can perfectly see every detail on the chain.
