The morning sun awoke and everyone rose from their beds. It was about 5:01am in the morning. It felt like everything was back to normal as the two girls rose from the bed. "Hey Meryl?" Said the tall brunet as she hopped out of the bed and took a long yawn and stretched her arms. "Yeah, what is it Milly?" The short of the two asked as she got out of bed and walked to the bathroom door. "Where did you and Mr. Vash go last night?" Asked the tall one as she took a hair brush off the side table and sat down. She started brushing her hair when she heard a giggle come from the bathroom. "Well, umm you see… We went out for a walk… Yeah! A walk that's all…" The short girl's voice replied from the bathroom.

Meanwhile while the girls were talking the boys were as well. "So I had a feeling you did…" Knives said while he was leaning against the headboard with his arms folded. "So what if I kissed her! You saw that other girls butt and I bet you liked it!" Vash said slyly covering his tracks. "So what if I did? She's not as sexy as Rem though…" Knives said as he looked as his hands which were now in his lap. "Wait… you thought Rem was sexy? Then why'd you kill her?" Vash asked confusedly as he sat on the other bed next to Knives. "Yeah she was, but she was a nuisance to me as well. As I said before I was going to let her live just because you were so attached to her." Knives said coldly which made Vash uneasy about the fact that Knives was around the two girls.

Knives gave a little laugh as he started thinking. But since they could read each other's thoughts in a cretin area range Vash was not pleased with what Knives was thinking. "You can't kill every human that causes you problems Knives… It's not the right way to solve problems." Vash exclaimed as he looked at Knives who was getting his evil grin back on his face and quickly.

Vash got off the bed and walked over to the door. But before he could open it there were three knocks. Cunk cunk cunk So he opened the door to see the two insurance girls standing there. Milly held her hand up signing hello as Meryl was looked down the hall away from Vash's face. "Oh hey insurance girls! How's everything going?" He said as his straight face quickly turned into a smile. "It's great! How is Knives?" Milly asked as she gave a huge smile to Vash who was looking over at the shorter girl. "He's fine I suppose… he's being a pain again but nothing I can't handle. Hey Mery-… I mean insurance girl, what's wrong?" Vash said softly as his face turned into a sad one as she stared away from his gaze.

Knives looked at Vash who's thoughts where depressing to hear. "Hey little insurance bitch! Look at someone when they talk to you!" Knives shouted at the short girl. "Knives stop it! What did I tell you about calling my Sempi bad words!" Milly shouted as she walked past Vash into the room and over to Knives's bed. "…FINE! But I'm still the superior being here!" He shouted at her and the two at the door stared blankly in amazement. He was actually listening to someone other them himself. It was amazing! "Now say you're sorry to Sempi! She didn't do anything wrong, nor did she hurt you!" Milly said as she pointed over to Meryl who was speechless. "Now that's a first…" Vash said to himself softly and Knives just looked away towards the wall.

Knives wasn't going to say sorry to anyone without a fight. So Milly accepted the challenge and gave him a whack upside the head. "You're acting like a child! Grow up Mr. Knives and face the fact that you're not in charge!" Milly shouted and the room grew quiet for a few seconds. Knives turned around to face Milly with an angry look but in return, got one back. He shut his eyes tight for a moment to think before they flew open. "Fine I'm soo~ sorry!" Knives shouted with a sassy voice then laid back down turning to face the wall. Milly gave him a sweet smile then walked over to Vash and Meryl who were completely shocked.

Their mouths hung open in amazement to the words they heard come from Knives mouth. "Did he just say-…?" Vash was saying until he heard Meryl say something. But all she said was 'Sorry?' Because she was finishing his sentence. "Well you guys I think he'll be fine. He's learned his lesson." Milly chuckled with a smile and Vash gave a little laugh in agreement.

Meryl just watched her two friends interact like well, friends. Why? Why did that have to happen? Now I can't even face him… But he still calls me insurance girl, I just don't get it! Meryl thought as she just watched them laugh together. Knives on the other hand was pissed! He didn't like that tall brunet one bit! He didn't like being bossed around, plus the fact the he was injured so he couldn't do anything about it! Why me? Why do I have to listen to them? I'm the superior being here! I shouldn't have to listen to those punnie insects over there! He thought as he turned onto his back and turned his head to face them.

Meryl just faked a smile and Knives noticed as he gave her an evil glare. "Let go get some breakfast! I'm hungry!" Vash shouted and marched out the door leaving the two girls and Knives there confused. But Milly gave a shrug and followed him. But before she went out the door she stopped to look at Knives who was still glaring at Meryl. "Knives you be good I'll bring you back some food soon, ok?" She said as she turned around and left the room. But Knives didn't acknowledge her and just kept glaring at Meryl who was getting a little frightened by his look.

She then turned to walk out the door but stopped dead in her tracks when she felt an uneasy presence behind her. Then she heard his voice which made chills go up her spine and the hairs on the back of her neck stand up. "You'd better watch out insurance bitch… I'm watching you." Knives voice echoed throughout the room and she took a big gulp. She glanced over her shoulder at him then started for the door. Once she left a huge creepy grin grew on Knives's face and he knew his mischievous plan would work.

Once they entered the little hotels food area which was quite small Vash ran over to the doughnut stand and scarffed about twenty down before he looked back at the two insurance girls with a big smile as crumbs lined his mouth. "Mr. Vash don't eat them all!" Meryl yelled and Milly just giggled at her. "I'll go get Knives his breakfast then tend to his wounds after." Milly stated as she walked over and grabbed some food from the stand and then walked back to the room. "Wait are you guys really leaving me with the bill?" Meryl yelled as she stomped over to Vash who was back to scarffing down doughnuts. "Stop eating or it'll be 100$$ by the time you're done!" Meryl yelled as she grabbed the back of his jacket and pulled him away from the doughnut stand. "Oh come on insurance girl~!" He whined as he was getting dragged out of the small café area by the back of his big red coat.

By the time they got out of the small café area Vash had given up the struggle to get more doughnuts. "I give up… come on let go. Besides you're choking me." Vash pleaded as he looked up at the back of her head. She looked over her shoulder and glared at him. "I blame you…" She said softly as she let go of the collar of his jacket. His head fell to the wooden floor and he looked up at her. "What did I do?" Vash asked with an unsure face. He was clueless; he hadn't had a clue what he had done. "I blame you for messing with my stupid emotions VASH!" She shouted as she stormed off down the long halls leaving his there on his butt. He watched her as she turned the corner out of sight. "But I meant that to happen… I wasn't playing with your emotions Meryl…" He said as he itched the back of his head while getting to his feet.
