It wasn't that Ender didn't want to be Melissa's date for this gala thing that her dad was doing. He didn't want her to have to go alone, and (kind of surprisingly) he'd turned out to be a jealous enough boyfriend that he definitely didn't want her to have to take someone else. It was just that it was going to be the first time he met her dad, and that was terrifying enough already without the fact that he was going to be more dressed up than he'd ever been before in his life. Wearing a button up shirt made him feel suffocated enough, but a suit? Or... whatever she was going to make him wear, he hadn't asked. He didn't think he wanted to know.
He'd delayed the shopping as long as he could, talking her into going for lunch first, and then a walk, but he couldn't stall her forever, at least not without making it look like he really didn't want to go. He knew that she wouldn't make him, if he really didn't want to, but then they were back to him feeling bad about her going alone or being worried about her taking some other guy who was way more comfortable in that kind of situation than him. It was going to be worth it, he reminded himself when they walked into the store. At least, this way, it would be less obvious that Melissa was totally out of his league, when her dad first saw him.
Of course, the guy would still probably want to kill Ender just for dating his daughter, but there was nothing he could do about that.
The store itself was way nicer than anywhere Ender had bought clothes, before. That was usually WalMart, though, so it wasn't exactly hard to top it. He kept his fingers twined with hers, trying to focus on the plus side... he'd get to see Melissa all dressed up, too. That was going to be completely worth a little bit of discomfort.
