The Dress

Jyk came home later in the day. Caitlyn had managed to pry the dress off of herself but thinking she'd feel under dressed in her old clothes now, she put on a simple red dress of her own. This one was decently long too!

He'd complemented her dress which made her feel a little flustered, realising he'd see her in all kinds of outfits.

His ears flopped about as he busied himself in the kitchen, cooking some kind of Asian dish with white fluffy things and a lot of smells that apparently required a messy kitchen and a lot of swearing and burning oneself. He paused and check the clock. "Hey Caitlyn, she'll be here soon, if you want to go get dressed" he said in the most casual tone in the world. Caitlyn nodded and disappeared to her room, only to come out in her maid outfit. She walked to the end of the hall but remained out of sight of the kitchen and took a deep breath. Then she stepped out to show herself. Jyk looked up from the frypan to see her and he cracked a huge smile. "Glad to see it fits, now all I expect from you is to top up our wine and and bring our food and take our plates. You're free to join too if you'd like, or take your serving to your room"

Caitlyn simply nodded, a little too embarrassed being in front of him in the maid outfit for the first time to speak. Jyk plated up and took his apron off and was cleaning up when the they heard the knock. He gestured to Caitlyn who awkwardly walked to the door and opened it to see a short but incredibly curvaceous woman with bee antennae poking through her long, dark hair. She wore a black dress that would have shown a little less skin on anyone else. "Hello, ah- welcome to Jyk's house" she stammered out, doing a half bow before remembering how short her skirt was and straightening. "Hi I'm Saria, nice to meet you" she said, stepping in. Caitlyn struggled to not look down her enormous cleavage as she stepped past her and followed her, directing her to the dining room, which Jyk had lit with candles in the meantime. He greeted her with a kiss on each cheek and they sat together at the table and started to chat. Caitlyn watched her speaking to him, her face a little closer than usual and the way her eyes seemed to flit from his lips to his eyes every so often. She was a little engrossed with them together and woody forgot her job, but she went and grabbed some wine glasses and brought the open bottle over to the table. She put one beside Jyk and Saria each (her new vantage point allowing her to see he had slipped a hand onto her thigh) and then held the last one in her hand with some uncertainty. Jyk gestured for her to set it down on the other side of Daria and she poured them all a glass and sat down.

"This is Caitlyn, if she didn't introduce herself before. Caitlyn has a shiny Gallade" said Jyk with a big smile. "Oh my god no way!" Said Saria, turning so fast her hair whipped around. "How do you choose though! I still have a girl snorunt that I just can't decide how to evolve!". "Yeah but Caitlyn earned her shiny, she doesn't find them for free like somebody" said Jyk, giving Saria the side eye. She whipped back just as fast "Get luckier" she said before turning back to Caitlyn. Caitlyn stifled a giggle as Jyk went into a tirade about how he was owed a shiny because he'd been playing for longer while Saria winked at her and they leaned in and started discussing things conspiratorially. As they talked Caitlyn thought she saw Saria's eyes flick to her lips just like they did a Jyk's, but wasn't sure. Eventually Jyk grew tired of hurling blasphemes on RNJesus and asked Caitlyn if she could set the table. She stood up and as she did she caught Saria's eyes flit to the space between her skirt and socks. She turned to hide her blushing and grabbed three plates and brought them down, then grabbed a larger covered dish. She opened it to reveal a large pile of Bao buns. "Oh my goodness!" said Caitlyn, "these look amazing, can in get a photo?" A groan came from Saria but Jyk just looked smug. "You say I'm a bad chef but ~my~ food is Instagrammable" "Holy shit never say 'instagrammable' again you fucking dinosaur" Saria shot back. "It's photography practise" said Caitlyn but they'd already descended into bickering and she managed to get a couple nice pictures.

Jyk and Saria and each grabbed a few and Caitlyn cautiously followed. They already started eating before she took a bite, it was nice, some kind of pulled meat in a sticky sauce with coleslaw. "Barbeque Pulled Jackfruit" said Jyk. "These are way worse than mine, don't you think Caitlyn" said Saria, giving her a little elbow and a wink. "Uh yeah totally" said Caitlyn. "You can't bait me with me being a bad chef Saria, I know I am." said Jyk, rolling his eyes. Saria giggled and they all sat talking and drinking, each grabbing more bao buns until the centre plate was empty. When they had all sat back after eating Jyk gave Caitlyn the nod and she obediently gathered up the plates. "What, no second course?" said Saria when Caitlyn returned empty handed. "No no," said Jyk, with an indignant finger waggle "you are allowed a 'bad chef' joke or a 'two course pls' joke but not both. Like you can't make a 'my boss is like my mum' and a 'I want to fuck my boss' joke in the same day". Saria rolled her eyes. "Besides, I'm a little tired and was thinking I'd turn in for the night" said Jyk with a **** innocent face. He downed the last of his wine before gesturing to the table. "Caitlyn, do you mind?" he said before taking Saria by the hand and walking her down the hall.
