Chapter 13

The next Saturday, Sasha and Ashley were back in Kansas City. Ashley had left Brooke in charge of the flower shop, while Aunt Mae and Tammy—Sasha’s part-time employee—were manning the bakery so Ashley and Sasha could go outfit shopping. Unfortunately, their expedition wasn’t very successful so far.

Sasha looked down at the borderline too-short slacks, then in the mirror at the blazer she was trying on, and finally at Ashley.

“No,” they said in unison.

Sasha squished the shoulder pads. “I look like a linebacker in this.”

Ashley snorted. “Nonsense. You don’t. It’s just that you have such nice, strong…I mean, really strong shoulders, so you don’t need any shoulder pads.”

A smile tugged on Sasha’s lips. So Ashley thought her shoulders were nice? That almost made up for the stress of shopping. She slipped out of the blazer and gave it to Ashley to hold while she ducked back into the dressing room, where she had already tried on and discarded several outfits.

Everything had either been too businesslike, making her look like a CEO going to a business meeting, or not available in her size, and she hadn’t felt comfortable in the one dress she had tried on.

“Why don’t we head to dinner now?” Sasha said through the curtain separating them. “I have a nice pair of slacks and a blouse at home that I can wear to the wedding.”

“Oh, no. That wasn’t our deal. We’ll go have dinner only once you have found something to wear.”

Sasha sighed. “That could take us until Leo and Holly’s first wedding anniversary.”

“One more stop, okay? I want you to look good. Um, I mean, not that you usually don’t, even in your frosting-smeared apron, but…” Ashley cleared her throat.

Even without seeing her, Sasha knew she was blushing. Was she thinking about the last time she had seen her in a frosting-smeared apron?

“If you don’t find anything you like in the next store, you can wear whatever you have at home,” Ashley said.

Back in her comfy jeans, Sasha stepped out of the dressing room. Truth be told, spending time with Ashley made the shopping experience bearable, so she nodded and steered them toward the escalator.

Ashley wanted to continue on to the ground level, but Sasha pulled her to a stop on the next level. “I think this should be our last stop.”

“Um, this is the men’s section.”

Sasha shrugged. “So? Half of my wardrobe is from the men’s section.”

“Really?”

“Yeah, why not? Clothes don’t have a gender. Shopping in both sections doubles my chances of finding something that actually fits. Plus the stuff in the men’s department is cheaper.”

“Which is so unfair. If clothes don’t have a gender, neither should price tags.”

“Preaching to the choir.” Sasha waved toward the men’s section. “So? Want to look around?”

Ashley’s gaze went to the single salesclerk and several shoppers milling around, most of them men. She dragged in a long breath, then nodded and strode forward as if she owned the place.

Sasha stared after her. Shit. Confidence looked damn sexy on her. She hastened after her.
