Shooting Melissa a text message finding the newly minted teen had made her way to the local mall. Arriving at the mall, Ethan quickly made his way inside.
Strolling throught the mall, Ethan began to understand the effects Chronos was having. Glancing inside the various store windows, Ethan discovered his fashion sense had definitely altered. Before taking the virus, Ethans fashion choices were more conservative, more adult. Comfortable jeans or slacks, plain t-shirts, and the occasional polo or button down were his go to outfits. Ethans daughter had often described it as "Dad wear".
Now, Ethan found himself, fascinated by the latest youthful fashion trends. Shirts, jeans, even tank tops now drew the 18 year olds attention. Ethan paused in front of sports apparel store, finding himself gazing at a replica jersey. For a moment he wondered if people would think it cool if he wore that around the office. Shaking the thought from his emhead he quickly entered a department store in search of Melissa.
After a few moments, Ethan was able to discover Melissa in the petite section. The raven haired teen was now loaded down with several teenage outfits. Melissa quickly spotted the buff scientist, precariously balancing her purchases as she now waved.
"Looks like your having fun," Ethan smirked. Melissa blushed slightly, placing her outfits down. "Okay maybe got a bit carried away," she replied sheepishly. "But just couldn't help myself. I originally went to I usually go for clothes, but everything was just a bit too big. Even my shoes! Besides just looking at some of my old clothes they were just so..."
"Boring," Ethan finished, Melissa nodding in surprise. "How did you know," she asked.
"Looks like another side effect of Chronos," Ethan stated. "Our fashion sense has become...more youthful."
"Well that explains alot," Melissa said quietly. The raven haired teen now blushed, grabbing Ethans hand as she quickly ran towards the changing room. "Melissa what are you doing!"
Melissa paused, biting her lip nervously as she glanced around. "Okay," she said quickly. "I thought this was nuts when I bought it but if what you're saying is true it makes sense."
"What is it?"
"Let me show you," Melissa grinned. "Its probably easier that way." Ethan simply nodded, the teenage girl giggling as she sprinted into the changing room. Ethan now began to wonder what Melissa could be up to? Had Melissa purchased lingerie? That would make sense and would certainly be hot, Ethan could feel his massive manhood engorged slightly at the thought, causing him to blushed slightly as he adjusted himself. "Damn teenage hormones," he grumbled. Trying to keep his raging hormones in check was going to be a challenge.
"Well what do you think?"
Ethans jaw dropped as he stared at Melissa. Somehow she had managed to find an authentic high school cheerleaders outfit. The black and yellow outfit hugged her slight teenage curves, the skirt just dangerously low enough to cause Ethan to flush. Melissa had gone so far as to purchase a pair of white sneakers and below ankle socks, which perfectly complimented the outfit. Ethan now realized that Melissa was indistinguishable from any high school cheerleader.
"Its not too much is it," she asked shyly.
"No way," Ethan said in awe. "Melissa look gorgeous. Like an actual cheerleader."
"Thanks its kinda what I was going for," she smiled. "Which was super weird. I saw the outfit and at first just laughed. Trying to relive my old cheer days but, after a few minutes it just made sense. Do you think its because of Chronos?"
Ethan nodded, that was the likely explanation for Melissa's outfit, not that he cared when the girl looked like every teens high school dream girl.
"So do you like it," she asked.
"Like it I love it," Ethan exclaimed.
"Thanks hope Carl likes it too," she blushed. Ethan grinned like a Cheshire cat. Carl would definitely like it, now the teen wanted to do some shopping of his own.
