Page 55 of The Sins of Noelle

"Isn't this place expensive?" Noelle asked when Yuyu dragged her inside yet another store. This one's name, however, even Noelle could recognize and she was aware it was a luxurious brand.

"You need the best. Don't argue with me," Yuyu pouted, and Noelle found herself smiling.

"Ok, have it your way," she sighed, yet her expression was one of pure happiness.

She supposed other girls did this with their mothers, yet she'd never had that before. As soon as that thought crossed her mind, she was even more determined to enjoy herself.

They walked into the showroom, and Yuyu pinpointed a few dresses that would suit Noelle's shape.

"You're small," Yuyu apprised her carefully, "but not so small here," she winked playfully at Noelle as she pointed to her breasts.

Immediately, Noelle flushed and looked away.

She wasn't used to people pointing out that part of her body. She knew her body had changed a lot as she'd gone through puberty, and her breasts had seeminglyoverdeveloped. But she'd always tried to mask that by wearing loose shirts, or anything that would cover the cleavage area.

"Don't go shy on me, now," Yuyu chuckled. "You look gorgeous, dear. A lot of women would kill for that shape."

"Even pocket sized?" Noelle felt the need to ask in a dry tone.

Yuyu stilled, a smile playing at her lips.

"Pocket sized," she repeated before laughing. "I like that. And I bet boys like it too," she added suggestively.

Once more, Noelle found herself reddening from head to toe. She supposed it was due to the fact that she'd never had anyone talk to her about that before.

"Boys don't usually like me," she replied in a small voice, causing Yuyu's brows to lift in question.

Clearing her throat, Noelle continued.

"They think I'm intimidating," she mumbled. "Not that I want them to like me," she had to clarify. "I don't like them either."

Yuyu merely smiled at her gauche attempts at explaining herself.

"If you do, you know you can talk to me, right? I never had anyone to tell me about those things either, so I learned everything on my own," she told her in a soft tone, holding on to her hand and assuring Noelle of her support through touch.

It was something Noelle had noticed about Yuyu before. She was a very tactile person, and she always touched her to convey her feelings. Noelle found she didn't mind it. Especially as she could feel the warmth radiating from Yuyu and transferring into her.

"What did you have to learn?" Noelle blinked, surprised to see Yuyu herself blush at the question.

"Romantic stuff. Emotional and physical," she quickly added when she saw Noelle's confusion. Though her cheeks were becoming redder and redder, Yuyu continued. "I had no experience with men before Cisco. Not that your brother had any either," she added with a giggle. "But it made for a few…interesting situations. A lot of misunderstandings," she smiled fondly as she remembered. "So if you need any help don't hesitate to ask me. Maybe I can offer some of my tried and tested wisdom."

Noelle blinked. She didn't know whether Yuyu was offering to give her sex tips, or maybe something else. Whatever it was, she didn't think she wanted to know. It was already more than embarrassing to think of Cisco and Yuyu like…that.

"Thank you," she murmured, her eyes going right and left as she looked for an opportunity to change the subject. And she spotted it in the form of the most beautiful dress she'd ever seen.

Though it wasn't entirely black, as she would have liked, the interwoven white piece added to the shape of the gown and Noelle knew somehow she'd found her dress.

"That. I want that," she declared.

"Heavens, that's wonderful. Try it on! I can't wait to see how it looks on you," Yuyu exclaimed as she waved over a sales assistant and asked for Noelle's size.

Not a few minutes after and Noelle found herself in the changing room. The dress fit like a glove. The entire upper part of the gown was a creamy white shade that slowly turned into black from her waist down. The cut was absolutely stunning on Noelle's body shape as it emphasized her small waist and curved hips.

"It's perfect, Noelle," Yuyu declared in awe when she saw her. "You just need a pair of shoes to complete the look and you'll be absolutely stunning. So much so I'm afraid people might forget to listen to you play," Yuyu joked, and Noelle cracked a smile.

She'd never thought herself particularly beautiful. But in that dress shefeltbeautiful.

After paying for the dress, they checked a few more stores, finding a complementary pair of shoes before going for ice cream and calling it a day.
