Mouse sat in a secluded corner of the Nebukenezzar, typing quickly on his laptop. Switch spotted him sitting there and sat down next to him.
" What are you doing?" She asked.
Mouse snapped the laptop shut, trying to look innocent. " Nothing."
Switch grabbed the computer from him, her interest piqued. Her eyes widened as she looked at the screen. " Ten ways to annoy Neo? Sneak up behind him and yell, ' Mr. Anderson' in his ear. Tell him Smith can do everything he can do better. 'Accidentally' call him Smith. Insult Trinity." She stared at Mouse. " Are you crazy?"
" Don't worry." Mouse said. " It gets better."
" Tell him Kid wants to marry him. Tell him Morpheus has a crush on him." Switch burst outright into laughter, which suprised Mouse because she didn't laugh very often. " That is bad! Morpheus would kill you!"
" Which is why it's a secret, right?" Mouse answered. " You won't tell anybody?"
" Hey!" Trinity came over to them. " Why were you laughing?"
" Just something Mouse wrote." Switch blurted, before Mouse could stop her.
" Let me see." Trinity turned the screen towards her. Her eyes scanned down the list. " Ten ways to annoy Neo? Step on his dress-er, coat-while he's fighting. Instead of giving him the program he asked for, give him ballet." A tiny smile began at the corners of her mouth. " Say that Trinity ran off with Kid?" The beginnings of her smile vanished. " Tell him Persephone wants his number?" Trinity's eyes hardened, and she clenched her fist in fury. " I'm showing this to him!" She turned and stalked off, holding the computer.
Mouse's eyes widened. " No! Please don't!" He jumped up and ran after her. " I beg of you!"
Switch hung behind, laughing. " Come on, Trin! Show the kid a little mercy!"
" Please, please, please, don't do this!" Trinity vanished into the bowels of the Nebukenezzar, with Mouse still begging, presumably, for his life.
Just to clear things up:
I don't know if Mouse would have a personal laptop, but I needed it for the story.
I know Kid, Persephone, and Neo's feud with w/ Smith came after Mouse and Switch died, but, again, I needed them for the story.
Hope you liked it anyway.
