Chapter 6
Robin let out a heavy sigh as she looked up a high shelf with a blue covered book that she thought looked interesting to read. The only problem was that she could not find either a stepstool or ladder to use so that she could reach it. Although when the tactician looked over at the large stack of books she let out, "Hmm, I would like to read that book along with these other ones. But I guess if I can't get to it then maybe I'll just save it for my second set of books to read."
"Hi Miss Robin, what are you doing here in the library?" A voice asked, causing the white haired woman to turn and see Bowser Junior floating towards her in his clown car.
"Oh no, it's Bowser Junior. I do not have the time to deal with him and his father today."The brown eyed woman thought to herself as she watched the prince o thef koopas get closer to her. Once she felt he had gotten close enough though she replied back with, "Hello Bowser Junior, how are you doing today."
The red haired prince smiled brightly while he told her, "I'm doing great today." She then saw his eyes look over at her stack of books before they rose up a little as he added, "Oh wow, are you going to read all of those books?"
"Well, since there aren't a lot of the matches taking place right now. I'd figured that I would use this time to catch up on my reading a little." Robin explained, as she turned her gaze back up to the blue covered book she had her eyes on earlier. She then continued with, "Unfortunately, there's a book on one of the upper shelves that I can't seem to reach. Do you think you might be able to help me get it? It's that blue covered book on the second to top shelf"
"You mean that book up there? Ha, that'll be easy for me to get for you." Junior proclaimed, before he hovered upward using his clown car. And before Robin knew it the red haired prince was presenting her with the blue covered book she was trying to reach earlier. She saw a huge grin on his face while he added, "Here you are, Miss Robin."
"Thanks Junior, now my book stack is complete and ready for reading." The whita haired woman stated, as she sat down in a nearby chair. Once she had sat down in the chair however, she noticed that Bowser's son hadn't left the room yet. And so with a bit of curiosity she asked him, "Um is something wrong, Junior?"
She watched as the koopa prince moved his clown car until it was right next to her. He then replied back with, "No.. But I was wondering…do you mind if I read my own book while you read yours?"
Hearing this prompted Robin to laugh a little while she told him, "Well, I don't see why not. It actually will be a little nice having a reading buddy."
ooooooo
Wolf was still in unpleasant mood as he lifted the bar of weights upward before he brought it back down. The lupine breathed through his nose and continued doing his reps which was currently at forty. But while he was doing this he heard footsteps meaning that someone was going to work out in the gym area as well. And after a few more seconds had passed he heard a voice when it commented, "Well, at least you're doing something other then complaining now."
Hearing this caused the purple eyed wolf to put the bar back onto the rack and sit up. Once he did this he saw Samus was now wearing an orange colored workout bra with matching shorts. A smirk spread across the mercenary's face while he asked, "Yeah, I figured I'd work on keeping myself in shape while I wait. And by the looks of it you were about to work out also weren't you?"
He watched as the bounty huntress walked away from him and started up the treadmill. Once this was done she started to run while she replied, "Of course I am. What kind of bounty hunter would I be if I didn't do this?"
The grey and while furred wolf let out a chuckle as he stood up away from the bench and took off his shirt. When he had done this he saw the blonde haired woman look him over for a moment before she quickly looked away to continue with her running. A large tooth fill grin spread across the lupine's face as he told her, "Well I guess I'll let you continue your workout in pease. Besides I think I need to hit the showers anyway. See you when you're done, Samus."
As he was walking away though the blue eyed woman could not help but to look at the mercenary's large back while she kept on running on the treadmill. Once he was gone though she found herself becoming a bit uneasy as a deep red blush spread across her face. She then looked away while she said under her breath, "Darn it Wolf, why do you always seem make me blush when you're shirtless? I mean yes we are together and everything, but I didn't think I was attracted to you in that type of way yet." She sighed before she continued with, "Oh well, I guess it can't be helped when you really care about someone. And by that smirk on his face he knows how I feel about him. I just hope he feels the same…."
"Well, I'll be. I wasn't expecting to hear you say that out loud just yet. But you know I'm kind of glad you did." Wolf said, before he walked back into the gym still with that grin on his face.
A scrawl formed on the woman's face while she spat back with, "Tch, so you took your shirt off on purpose did you? I should have known you were up to something." She then turned off the treadmill and marched up to him. She then brought up her right pointer finger and poked his right chestplate and added, "So you know I should be unhappy with you right now." Once she said this however, Samus wrapped her arms around his torso and laid her head on his chest while she ended with, "But luckily for you I can't bring myself to do that right now."
Samus's eyes closed a little when she felt Wolf wrap his own arms around her before he told her, "Yeah well just so you know I do care about you. Actually I care about you more then you'll ever know."
"I believe that should be my line." The bounty huntress commented, as the two both let out light chuckles still wrapped in each others arms.
A/N: I hope the second half of this story wasn't TOO random. Also starting next week I might not be able to update until the weekend. Until this Saturday comes though I'll try to get as many chapters done as I can.
