Title: First Day
Characters: Fleur Royale(Mythdoll Yue), Alwyn(Souldoll Tiffee)
Author's Notes: Well, it took a long time,but I finally sat down to do some writing. I started my first real job in July, so that's what inspired this little story. Any comments or feedback, even if it's just to say that you read it are very much welcome.
Sunshine streamed onto the sleeping form of a girl deep in the realm of dreams. The butter-yellow sheets were pulled away, revealing long black hair and a light, bright blue nightgown. A hand carefully touched her shouldar and a soft voice said, "Fleur, it's time to wake up now." When the figure did not move, the voice spoke again, louder this time.
"Fleur, you need to get up, you've slept much too long." Still no response. The voice, annoyed now, repeated this yet again but still the girl slept.
"Fleur Royale, you are going to be late for work if you do not get up this instant!" Fleur's eyelids fluttered open and sat up very slowly.
"Were you saying something, roomie?"
Alwyn could hardly stop herself from yelling at her,"You could sleep through an earthquake! I shook you, tapped your collarbone, yelled, whispered, everything!"
"I was having a nice dream, I didn't want to get up before I got to the ending." Fleur smiled her easygoing smile and batted her long eyelashes. Alwyn left her alone to get changed and waited by the door to thier room until Fleur emerged. She was wearing a tailored pink dress that showed off her curves, an orange scarf was tied in a bow around her neck and she wore a pink beret to top it all off.
"You look very french today," Alwyn mummered as they walked to the dining room where thier breakfast awaited them.
"Well, I should, being from Quebec and all!" She replied and then laughed. Fleur Royale had lived in Quebec, French Canada all her life while Alwyn came from the Praire city of Winnipeg.
It was Fleur's first day of work at the Curiosity Shop, her new home. She and Alwyn shared a room behind the store and Fleur couldn't wait to start work there.
"What do we do at the Shop, Wynnie?"
"Mostly sit behind the register, sweep, mop and help with customers when it's needed. Most of the people who come in are regulars though, so they know what they're looking for. I can put on some music while we work, it can be awfuly boring just sitting here." With that, the small, pale, bonde girl left Fleur as she went to track down the radio.
Fleur wandered the Shop, pausing to examine the strange objects for sale. She was looking at a curious trunk with mysterious carvings when Alwyn came back with the old radio and a beautiul record player. They cleared off a corner of the desk and placed the antique radio down. With Celtic music and a church chorus playing in the background, they settled into thier places and waited for customers.
