Welcome to Gaia! ::

Awwww! Was he embarrassed? That was so cute! "Awww, Jerry. Well of course, I'm sure they're used to men being nervous in a lingerie store. There's nothing to be ashamed of, honey." Candace chuckled, humming thoughtfully as she looked down at herself. It looked like it should fit okay; it probably wouldn't be perfect but it'd do. "I really do like it! It's a nice color, and a cute style, and it's very sexy while still being classy." Classy because it covered as opposed to just being a scrap of cloth. That was how Candace would define this. Candace smiled.

"Jerry, I mean it. I love this, and I appreciate that you went through the no doubt uncomfortable effort of going into a lingerie store to get this. I want to wear it for you~." But was he feeling well enough for that? She wasn't going to just sit there and pretend she wasn't wearing lingerie for her boyfriend, man. Candace needed him to feel up for it.

Candace blinked. Why was he so nervous? He'd seen her naked before! He'd seen her topless! He'd...how could he still be shy about her body when they'd..?! Sigh. Jerry, it's a good thing you're cute. She gave a soft chuckle and nodded. "Now, later. Either is fine with me. I'd love to wear it for you right now though. Since you went through the trouble of getting it for me, I should show my appreciation, right?" Candace was smiling again.

At his squeaked out answer she gave a soft laugh and leaned over to kiss his cheek. "It looks like it should. And even if it doesn't lingerie isn't exactly meant to stay on for very long to begin with." The box was picked up and she climbed off the bed, humming a cheerful Christmas carol as she practically danced into the bathroom to change. She'd have a bit of mercy on poor, inexperienced Jerry.

It..actually fit rather well! Candace was genuinely surprised! She did fidget with it a moment to make sure everything was properly in place before she opened the door slowly, leaning against the door frame with a small smirk. "It fits~." She pushed off the frame to step further into the room again, giving a little twirl right before stopping beside the bed. "Well? What do you think?" Ah..he was humming? Why was he humming? Was he that uncomfortable right now?

Resisting the urge to frown, Candace sat down on the edge of the bed and leaned toward Jerry, walking her fingers up his arm. "Honey, it's okay." She crooned, scooting closer. "You can look at me. No one is going to burst in yelling at you." She'd locked the door anyway.

Ha! He liked it! She could just tell! Candace chuckled and followed him as he leaned back, gently putting a hand on the guitar to coax it off his lap. "Thank you, darlin'." She smiled, patting the guitar case. "Let's put this away so nothing happens to it, hm? Then you can show me just how gorgeous you think I am." There was a thought that occurred to her as she said this; she had promised herself to H for the night before but..the battle at the end of the Gala had completely prevented that. Damnit! She had really been looking forward to that! Fantasized about it, even! Stupid ******** Mother of All Presents!

Sigh.

Well...spending a guiltless Christmas with Jerry seemed like a fair enough trade off. She'd just have to see about making it up to H later. For now? Her boyfriend had her undivided attention.
