CH.2 starring
"Stork!"
"What?!" he said jumping up from his seat looking completely horrified
"Is there something on me? . . . . Get it off, get it off, get it off!"
"No, no Stork calm down, I just thought of something."
She walked over to the table in the middle of the room as he sat back down and continued to read his book. He was a little shaken up.
After a while she found herself lost in her thoughts. Wow I never realized how broad his shoulders are and how his hair falls so gently over his face. And those ears cut to perfection. She gave a small sigh as she slowly traced his ears with her eyes then stopped. Oh and those piercings. They look so good on him and I'm very impressed by his bravery. Most merbs would have been petrified at even the thought of a needle stabbing through the most sensitive part of the ear. And he's so smart like me! he knows his stuff, and he's not immature like the rest of the guys.
She was caught up in the thought of how he also drove the ship so well. When he said, "Are you sure there's nothing on me?"
"No, you're perfect." she said with a dreamy smile and sleepy eyes.
He raised an eyebrow at her response but shrugged it off and kept reading. She was about to ask what book he was reading when Aerrow and the other guys came in.
"Hey." she said half heartily.
Aerrow gave her his best smile when he saw her. He talked about the mission and how he beat the dark Ace again.
She gave him a weak smile. "That's great."
His smile faded and he gave her a confused look. She had never acted so uninterested when he talked about the missions.
She looked back at Stork and sighed. Everyone saw this and looked at Stork too who looked basically normal but his face was a little darker. He was blushing cause everyone especially Piper were now staring at him and he was becoming freaked out by it.
Then the radio beeped loudly. This broke the awkward silence and questioning looks they all gave Stork, who was relieved.
Aerrow answered it. It was Starling. She sounded urgent.
"Aerrow I need your help. . . . . Cyclonis has taken one of the head council members hostage."
"Aww not again we just got back from a mission." The wallop said looking sleepy.
"Please I really need your help."
" Of course we'll help you Starling." Aerrow said
"Thank you." Starling said. "meet me on the far right side of Terra Atmosia there are fewer Cyclonians on that side. We could easily take them out. Contact me when your close to the terra but far enough in the clouds for them not to detect you." ... "Starling out." there was a beep and then silence.
"Don't worry Junko we'll be well rested by the time we get there." Aerrow said giving him an assuring smile.
"Awe man and I wanted to go to Terra Ray. You know get my tan on and meet some hot babes." The sharpshooter said flexing his eyebrows.
Aerrow gave him the eye but usually left the scolding to Piper.
Everyone waited for Piper to say something about Finn's statement but she was still staring at Stork blissfully.
"Uh .. Piper?" Aerrow said looking worried.
. . . ."Piper!" he said louder to get her attention.
"Huh what?" she said snapping out of her trance and looking at everyone who was now staring at her.
"Are you okay?" He said putting his hand on her shoulder.
"Oh yah of coarse why?"
"Well because you've been staring at Stork this whole time."
"Oh I have?" She said trying to sound innocent.
"Yah." Everyone said in unison.
"Oh it's nothing. Sorry guys, I've just had a lot on my mind lately, " She said giving Stork a small smile and walking out of the room blushing. Everyone turned their heads to look back at Stork.
"Did something happen while we were gone?" said the confused sky knight.
"No! I was just reading my book when she came in here and just started staring at me." Stork said starting to get agitated.
"Maybe she got the Fulivian mind flu." He said now lowering his voice. "She could have caught it when we where on that last terra. But I suspected as much, it was pretty filthy there."
"Well uh...how come its just showing up now?" Junko asked looking confused.
"It could have been...in-cubating."
"Okay Stork." Aerrow said looking a little worried. He wasn't worried about Piper having some disease but she had been acting unusual.
