"Thank god I'm still growing too. I'd hate to end up much shorter than you are.... Perfect." Parker grinned, and straightened his tie, then gave it a pat. "And computer companies, pfftt. You'll have to tell me more about it, but they get away with that because they're geeks. Anywhere else, you have to walk the walk, and that means suit."

"Everything's a competition with you, Parker."

He chuckled, then bowed. "Do I pass scrutiny? You'll be seen in public with me?"

"Everything's a competition with everyone. Most people just don't know it." Parker leaned her elbow against his shoulder, and studied the two of them in the mirror for several moments, then grinned at his reflection. "Well, I'm here now, aren't I?" She gave him a little push. "Go, pack it up, get ready to buy."

With a nod, Jarod retreated to the dressing room, then came out carrying the suit, shoes, tie, and dress shirt a bit later.

He'd already seen the price tags in the dressing room, so he wouldn't be completely shocked at the register. Still, he'd never spent $1,500 on one set of clothes before.

"This is much more comfortable," he said, looking pointedly down at his sweater, jeans, and black boots.

Parker rooooolled her eyes. "Sometimes, you are such a guy. Comfort is for when you're alone." She gestured to her own plum Versace, which had not been bought on sale. "I get away with more because I look corporate and responsible. If I wanted comfort, I'd walk around in my pajamas!"

Privately, Jarod thought that Parker'd be a lot happier if she spent more time in her pajamas and a lot less time in Versace, but he decided not to say anything.
