Title: Rocky Horror 79/100 TtH Prompt: #30 Costumes Summary: The team goes out for Halloween. Rocky Horror “I like this part of Halloween,” Vala said the next night. She twisted and turned in front of the mirror as she admired her image. “It is fun,” Buffy agreed as she adjusted her wig. “I’ve never celebrated it like this before, though.” “You’ve never dressed up?” Vala asked, turning to look at her in surprise. “Yes, I meant that I’ve done that a lot. It’s just that I’ve just never gone to see the movie. I’ve only watched it on TV.” She stood up and twirled. “So, do I look like her?” Vala grinned. “It’s perfect. What about me?” “Daniel will love it,” Buffy promised. “What? How… He… What?” Vala stammered, caught off guard by the question. “I’m just saying it should catch his attention,” Buffy said innocently. “Well, Cameron shouldn’t be able to take his eyes off of you,” Vala countered, tilting her chin up slightly. Buffy let out a nervous laugh. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” “If you say so,” Vala said with a wink. There was a brief knock on their front door before it opened. “Are you girls ready?” Cameron yelled. “Movie starts in forty-five minutes.” “Coming!” Buffy said. She was suddenly nervous. “Are you sure the skirt isn’t too short?” “It’s fine, now let’s go!” Vala said. She bounced out of the room, her hair much wilder than normal because of her costume. “Vala, you make the perfect Magenta,” Cameron’s voice said as it floated down the hallway. “Where’s Buffy?” “She’s coming. Where’s Daniel? Or should I say Riff Raff?” “He’s waiting in the car,” Cameron said. Then Buffy could hear Vala leave the house. “Buffy! Hurry up!” Cameron cried, walking down the hallway towards her bedroom. Buffy did one last check in the mirror before turning around to leave. She bumped into Cameron in the doorway and her jaw dropped. “Cam… you… I know tonight was your idea… but I … you’re in… isn’t that…” Cameron’s heavily made up eye winked at her. “I’m a huge Rocky Horror fan.” “I can tell,” she gasped. She wondered where in the world he had found the leather corset and the high-heeled shoes. He didn’t look the least bit self-conscious about being dressed in drag. “Nice costume,” she finally choked out. “You could have at least warned me that you were going to dress as Frankenfurter.” “And miss out on this reaction? I don’t think so,” Cameron said with a grin. “Come on, Columbia, let’s get this show on the road.” Previous Chapter Buffygate Menu Next Chapter |
