150 chapter 2

I could see the excitement on her face as she led me to a room upstairs. The room had once been her parents. Where there had once been a large king sized bed, now stood two pods of some sort. The rest of the room had been changed as well. Their had once only been a single large dresser, but it had been replaced by two smaller ones.

She led me to the giant walk in closet, and explained that the side on the right would be mine, while the side on the left was hers. Her side was already complelty filled with clothes, and a variety of different shoes lined the bottom.

I shook my head at the sight. To be honest, I only had the clothes on my back. While enlisted I had not really taken any days off, I had preferred the constant work the army had provided. Because of this my bank account was quite full.

I had saved all of it, only using what was needed to buy my cigarettes. It was a nasty habit I had picked up while on my first deployment, and with the thought that I could die any day I had not been concerned about getting cancer.

To this day I still smoked. It was the one vice I truly had, and I had no desire to give it up.

She then turned to the pods, and excitedly explained them to me.

"These are full immersion pods. A lot fancier than what we had as kids right? With these we can play while we sleep. Thats why I got rid of the bed."

I nodded. This was the standard with games now days. They would be available to play from 10 pm to 6 a.m. This meant that people would be less addicted to the games, and still be able to function. The virtual world also had a time dilation feature. So a single night of playing was like 7 whole days in the game.

Every night was like a little vacation, and surprisingly it did wonders for the work force. Ot reduced the stress of workers, and allowed for companies to be more productive. Most companies actually required their employees to play some sort of virtual game.

"The game doesn't officially launch until tonight. Considering it is still early morning is there anything you want to do before then?"

I nodded. "I need to get some clothes and stuff. As you can see I didn't really bring anything with me."

A giant smile appeared on her face. "You haven't changed at all Britney. Even now you always forget about yourself and put me first. Why is that I wonder?" She giggled as she said that, but quickly walked towards the door.

I stood there in shock. Did she.. Did she just flirt with me? My thoughts were interupted by the jingling of keys. "Well? Are you coming or not?"

I sighed. I was probably just imagining it.

She took me to a rather nice clothing shop. The clothes there were all rather expensive, but equally beautiful. I could only shake my head as I looked at the prices. This is not somewhere I wanted to shop, but I could see Alex's eyes sparkle as she looked at all of the clothes. I could only calmly accept the fact that we would spend the next couple of hours looking at clothes I had no interest in.

The clothes she tried on were beautiful, she had rather good taste, and each outfit fit her perfectly. The dresses she tried on brought attention to her curvy figure.

When she was finally done we left the designer store, and headed towards a store of my own choosing. It was nothing fancy, I had a particular taste in clothing and we found ourselves at the mall.

We went to a punkish shop, and I found several black pants to wear. These pants fight my rather firm backside tightly, so well that I recieved several compliments from Alex. Her compliments made me blush, but I bought every outfit she had complimented.

I also purchased a variety of shirts, but ultimately they did not matter as much. I was not particularly blessed by the boob fairy. I was not flat chested, but a modest B, while Alex was far larger in that regard.

It was safe to say that while Alex beat me on virtually every aspect aspect of appearance, I was far ahead of her in terms of my ass. It was my crowing achievement physically, and was the result of my own effort. I was in far better shape than her physically, but she also beat me in both personality and intelligence.

I sighed thinking about it. It was almost as if everything had been handed to her on a silver platter. She was the full package. Great body, great personality, and a great mind. In comparison while I was above average in those aspects, I was not at her level at all.

We ended the day with a meal at a restaurant I never would have been able to afford. The place was an upscale establishment, and required a reservation far in advance. We enjoyed a romantic candle lit dinner, but while the food and atmosphere were amazing, they paled in comparison to the company I had that night. It was definitely a night that I would remember for a long time.
