"Wow we're probably the worst friends in the world." Holly chuckled while putting her head in her hands. Artemis frowned in disagreement.
"Oh absolutely. Only 'the worst friends in the world' would save each other from death numerous times. That makes complete sense." Artemis's sarcasm was met by Holly's backhand as usual.
"What I meant, smart ass, is that we've known each other for what? A little over 3 years? And we still don't know anything about each other." Holly said.
"Actually it has been a little over 5 years not 3 years. You've forgotten the time tunnel," Artemis glanced at Holly before continuing. "And I wouldn't necessarily say we don't know anything about each other."
"Alright then Fowl what exactly do you know about me?" Artemis frowned at Holly's question.
"Well you're in Section 8, hate criminals, like using me as your personal punching bag (Holly chuckled), view Root as a father figure, you're a good ally, and…….you like Trouble Kelp." Artemis rushed out the last part hoping that Holly wouldn't notice.
She did.
"Excuse me?! And what gives you that idea?!" Holly poked Artemis rather hard in the head to emphasize her irritation. Artemis felt a bead of sweat go down his forehead. Foaly warned him not to say anything but honestly who listens to Foaly when it comes to areas of the heart? It took him half a century to find a girlfriend for Pete's sake (honestly who's Pete?).
"Just forget I said anything." Artemis said as Holly's hand twitched to her buzz baton. "Anyway that is all I know about you." Holly's angry look was placed by an expression of disbelief.
"So you only know 6 things about me?" Artemis glanced at Holly.
"I suppose."
"So you never looked up my profile on the LEP site?" Artemis stiffened momentarily. He never did tell Holly exactly how he freed Mulch, only that he did. He could only assume Holly somehow made a lucky guess as to the how.
"Holly honestly, whatever makes you think I would hack into Foaly's mainframe?" Holly laughed at Artemis's attempt at an innocent face.
While Artemis could be described as devious, intelligent, kind, and a pain in the ass, 'innocent' was not a word in his character profile. Artemis shook his head, realizing he couldn't fool Holly. She somehow always could tell when he was lying.
"Alright" Artemis sighed, "I did almost look at your profile but…I couldn't do it. I felt like I was invading your privacy." Wasn't it strange that only 5 years ago he would never care if he invading a person's privacy? Artemis credited his new found morals to Holly although he would never tell her that.
Holly felt touched. It was at moments like these that Artemis's growth to the human being he was today could be seen. Probably because of Artemis's chivalry Holly decided to do something usually unheard of.
"Would you like to know more about me?"
Okay new chapter. I know a lot of people are going to be pissed at the Trouble comment BUT I'm actually trying to keep most of my information somewhat factual. Anyways the next chapter will be up sometime this week so nobody spaz out. So review, fave, whatever. I'm still writing the story.
