Piper landed her heliscooter on terra ranodeya, for a moment she stood there capturing the building that stood before her; the midnight blue building matched the color of her hair with a florescent pink for the door. Just as she was momentarily taking it in, a familiar person came to greet her, he was a few inches taller than piper herself, with caramel colored skin and soft brown eyes and black curly hair, he appeared to be a almost a year older than piper, he then approached his guest who still hadn't noticed and hugged her tightly.
'Hey!' piper yelled 'get off…'
'Piper! It's me Martin!'
'Martin!' she hugged him glad to see him
Back at the condor the guys had seen everything but they had mistaken in what they had saw, at first they stood there watching piper stand there watching in awe, but as the young handsome man approached piper, Aerrow and Finn grew tense. Fists clenched they both ran to contact piper, wrestling for the receiver. Stork rolled his eyes and sat down watching the guys fight. Eventually Aerrow was able to grab the receiver and call Piper.
'Piper! Look out!'
On hearing Aerrow's panicky voice, she made her way to her heliscooter 'It's ok Aerrow,' and with that she left smiling up at the condor, she made her way to this new companion of her's.
On the bridge Aerrow grew angry, he watched fists clenched as the handsome young man hugged Piper while she returned the favor. Finn stood beside Aerrow, expressionless while gripping a gooseberry he had, and Finn being Finn forgetting he had it, gripped it so hard it exploded in his hand and on his trousers. Radarr stood there wide eyed as the thick juice ran down his trousers, Stork ran out shouting something about needing to clean up the mess before mindworms attack, while Junko glanced at the two standing there looking dumbfounded.
'Uhh guys?' he said interrupting there thoughts
On hearing the slurping noise the blond and red head looked down on the furry creature, with a bent back hungrily licking the floor with his slimy pink tongue.
'Ewww! Get him off me!' Finn yelled in a high-pitched voice. At that moment everyone froze while Finn clutched on to the window one foot in the air, and pointing at the blue hairy creature that had stopped licking the squashed berries. Then they all exploded in laughter until Finn regained consciousness and sarcastically laughed. Just then Stork appeared from nowhere with a bottle of spray reading mindworminator and with eyes bulging out he sprinted towards the blue furry creature, manically spraying the substance all over the 'bag of fur' (according to Finn).
When it was all over, Aerrow began to pace up and down, hands behind back brows creased into a frown, Finn had returned and now sat, face scrunched into his 'thinking position'. Junko happily made himself a sandwich and was now wrestling Radaar over it. While stork gripped a towel that sat around his waist mumbling to himself. As minutes passed by, Aerrow grew more and more angry, the thought of some guy hugging Piper? How could he? Finn was having the same thoughts, if he hugged Piper what would she do? Or even think? Just as the two were deep in thought they heard a familiar laugh. Piper's.
'Oh come on, they'll like you' she pleads
'Are you sure?' he asks unconvinced
'Yes!' she nods pulling him inside
Aerrow arrives with the rest of the team 'Piper? Who's this?'
'Oh hey guys' She replies 'This is Martin, Martin this is the Storm hawks, my team' She smiles proudly
After few minutes of mumbling hello's from one to another, Piper shows Martin the ship, closely followed by Aerrow and Finn. Watching secretly hiding behind objects .
'Well, I've got customers' states Martin
'can't keep them waiting!' Piper replies enthusiastically
He chuckles in response and hugs Piper goodbye, on seeing the skyknight and sharpshooter he says 'goodbye' and leaves.
Carefully placing the package away, Piper heads to the bridge, only to see two angry faces.
'Did I do something wrong?' She questions
'Wrong?' Aerrow exclaims 'What were you two talking about?'
Finn pipes in as Aerrow continues to question Piper 'Yeahh! We saw you too!'
'What? You two were SPYING on me? I can't believe it!' and with that Piper stormed out slamming her room door shut
'You come out right now young lady, you've got a lot of explaining to do!' exclaims Finn
'Lady?' Stork scoffs as he passes by, giving Finn the one over
Finn glares in response, Radarr sniggers as he scurries past
'Piper! Open up' Aerrow yells fists banging on the door 'if you don't im coming in'
But luckily he didn't have to as the door slid open and out stormed Piper, ignoring the stares from Finn and Aerrow she made her way to the bridge.
Stork clears his throat, straightens his shoulders puts on a brave face and makes his way to the hunched figure. 'Piper' he starts she looks up and smiles faintly at him then looks back down at...a blank piece of paper 'umm what are you doing? I-I mean are you okay?'
She glances up nods and turns back to the paper
Stork lets out a sigh 'alright I give up' he sits besides Piper and turns towards her 'I know that there's something special in that package, and I also know it's for a special someone I don't know who but im sure they'll love it' and with that he got up and left, leaving Piper staring after him.
'Im going in' Aerrow states
'Wait!'
Aerrow stops midway
'You can't just walk in, let me come' Finn demands
'if we both go then Piper is not going to be happy, so you sit here..' he grabs Finn by the shoulders and pushes him down on the chair
Finn begins to protest 'No you sit here..' He stands up and pushes Aerrow on the chair
'No, YOU sit here…' Aerrow begins but Finn refuses to budge and grabs Aerrow by the shoulders, unsuccessfully pushing Aerrow on the chair, instead they slip falling to the floor, grabbing on to one another for support, hit the floor with a huge 'Thud!' Just then the door opens
'Oh I didn't realize you guys were busy' Piper says eyes wide.
There before her Finn is on the floor Aerrow on top both clinging on to one another.
'This is not what it looks like' says Finn trying not to look up at Aerrow whose mouth was inches apart from his own.
'well it looks like you two are busy, I should…go' by her side Radarr has joined her, takes one look at the clinging couple and passes out 'I'll take Radarr with me, you two have fun! Besides im sure you already are' she giggles hysterically and walks to her own room carrying a petrified Radarr along. Moment's later frantic knocks are heard outside
'Could you let us explain?' It was Aerrow, even though the door was closed she could picture the worried look planted on his face
'Yeah what you saw then was NOT what it looked like' Finn chimed in and again she pictured Finn's face running his hand through his blonde mop.
With a heavy sigh Piper unlocks the door, together Aerrow and Finn swarm in immediately talking over one another
'Guys. Guys! would you shut up? If you two were enjoying yourself's back then fine im glad you were umm...having fun but I wasn't meant to see that'
'No wait Piper you've got it all wrong ' Finn exclaims he quickly explains what had happened and begged Piper for forgiveness, clutching on to her leg
'Finn! Would you get off?' Piper yells desperately looking for help, Aerrow takes that as a signal to move, grabbing Finn's legs but unsuccessfully moving him. He sighs in defeat, and then something clicks inside of him.
'Isn't that the new shampoo conditioner 280?'
Finn's Ears perk up, from pleading blonde he transforms into a maniac desperate for the 'new mint shampoo 208'! This is the real Finn, finally he's come out of hiding…well maybe that's not so good. He breaks into a speed run hunting for his prey (the new mint shampoo)
Aerrow and Piper watch after him, and then explode into a fit of giggles somehow managing to collapse on Piper's well made bed. For a moment they just stare at each other until Aerrow breaks the silent
'Piper don't get mad at me but I really am sorry, Mark or whatever his name is…'
'Martin' Piper corrects
'Yeah him, I mean I hated him touching you I just..'
'Aerrow were just friends, I used to know Martin in my childhood, nothing more I promise' she smiles and clutches his hand for reassurance
'I was wondering what was in that package you brought?'
She grins and takes out the package, neatly wrapped with a bow and a little note reading 'For you and you only, love Piper'
'This is for you ' she hands him the neatly wrapped package
'for…me?' but he never left a moment for her to reply and tore open the package rapidly, in his hand he held up a handmade photo album complete with photos of Aerrow and Piper together
'I had it specially made do you like it?' in response he hugged her tightly
'But what is it for?' She flipped on the book to the last page at their it read 'Happy Valentines day' He grinned Piper had gone through all this trouble for valentines day? Surely she needed something back, so he leant forward taking her face in his hands and was just about to lay his lips on hers when…
'I still can't find that shampoo!' Finn yells barging in
Aerrow and Piper quickly split apart.
'Damn it!' They both thought 'couldn't he wait a little longer? Apparently not..
