"What are these?" Kris asked, spotting a pair of the tallest boots he'd ever seen in the pile of Adam's belongings.
Adam stuck his head out of the bathroom, toothbrush still in his mouth. "Platform boots. They rock."
"Dude, can you imagine how tall I'd be in these?" Kris called.
Adam smiled at his reflection in the mirror, imagining Kris trying on his boots. He should probably tell him not to try walking around in them, or he might fall and get hurt. Rug burn wouldn't look good come show days.
But by the time Adam was finished getting ready for bed, he walked back in the room they shared to find Kris several inches taller. Wearing a tee shirt, boxers and Adam's boots.
"See? I told you." Kris said proudly. "I'm like, almost as tall as you in these things." He stumbled then, reaching out for Adam, so he didn't fall on his face.
Laughing, Adam held him steady and walked him over to sit down. "Here. Let me show you. You don't wear platform boots in your underwear," he advised. Adam cocked his head, thinking, "You need a whole look to make it work. Accessories and outfits."
Kris nodded, sprawling out on his bed to watch as Adam put together a sample outfit in record time and held it out for Kris to see.
"Now. If you wore this with, like, a little glitter and maybe a chain or something? That'd be hot."
Kris considered a minute and finally spoke. "That'd be too hot. I vote underwear." He kicked off the boots and rolled over, already drifting off.
"Me, too," Adam agreed, and reached up to turn off the light.
