"Please, Foaly!" begged Artemis Fowl. Begging. I am begging thought Artemis. Foaly grinned, clearly liking this.
"I don't know, Arty. It's a little hard to get past the LEP these days," he said thoughtfully. Artemis gritted his teeth. He knew the centaur was just saying that to make him beg even more.
"Please! I have to see her, Foaly! How would you feel if you weren't allowed to see Caballine? " asked the 16 year-old boy. Foaly sighed.
"Look, Artemis," he started. "I know you love Holly but if the LEP somehow find out, my job is gone. And you'll be banned from Haven. They might even mind wipe you. It's all for your own good," he said.
"Please, Foaly! I need to be with her! I swear I'll take all the blame," he begged. Foaly sighed again.
"Okay," he finally said.
"Thank you so much, Foaly!" exclaimed Artemis. Foaly typed a few things on his computer.
"She's in the training room. C16. Down the hall, first-."
"I know where it is, Foaly," said Artemis cutting him off.
"Fine, Mr. Know it All," he grumbled. "Go, say hi, and run back and grab the soonest shuttle before anyone finds out."
"Thank you, Foaly," he said again.
"Go!"
Artemis obeyed, running down the hall. Running. I am running! he thought. When he reached C16, he was out of breath. He quickly entered Holly's LEP officer code (which he totally hadn't memorized-ok he had). Inside, he found Holly practicing shooting mud men with the newest Neutrino model.
"Is that what you do behind my back?" Holly jumped. She turned around, ready to shoot whoever was in the room. "Whoa! Hold it, Captain!" said Artemis with his hands up.
"Artemis! Don't sneak up on me like that!"she exclaimed, lowering her Neutrino.
"Sorry. But honestly, you should be the one apologizing. Shooting humans behind my back. What a shame," he said. Holly grinned.
"LEP requirements. Not my fault," she replied. Artemis put an arm around her waist and pulled her close to him.
"I bet you could bend a few rules," he whispered into her ear.
"Within reason," she whispered back. He leaned down and kissed her. After a while, a voice came from overhead speakers.
"That's enough, Mud Boy!" Holly and Artemis turned to see Foaly glaring at them from a monitor.
"Foaly! Can't we have a little privacy?" asked Holly.
"The Mud Boy needs to go," said Foaly.
"Foaly's jealous," teased Artemis. Holly laughed.
"Oh, all right! 2 minutes. That's it," he said. He turned off the monitor and the cameras. All except for one. This was just too good to miss. Artemis looked back down at Holly.
"Where were we before Foaly so rudely interrupted us?" asked Artemis, glaring at the one camera Foaly hadn't turned off. Holly giggled. They kissed again, not caring if Foaly saw. And when he came back on the monitor exactly 120 seconds later telling Artemis to leave, they just ignored him and kept kissing.
