A/N: Yee-haw! Tensions are gonna start in this chapter! It is the same thing (basically) from two different points of view!

***Sugi's P.O.V***
After arriving back at Jabba's Palace, Hardeen, Sing, and I walked to the main audience chamber. Sing hurried along up ahead, but Hardeen slowed his pace to walk next to me. I wondered what he wanted.
"Hey Sugi, you did great on that mission. You're a natural leader." He complimented.
"Thanks." If it was compliments he wanted, guess what he wasn't getting.
"So are you and Embo… you know… together?" He asked.
"What?!" I exclaimed.
"You know, in a relationship." He said. Now I knew what he wanted.
"What's it to you?" I asked, stopping and placing my hands on my hips, but close enough to my thighs so I could quickly grab my knife if need be.
"I was just wondering if you would let me buy you a drink some time." He said. His odd flirtatious advances disgusted me.
"I think I'll manage." I said, continuing down the hall. Then, a realization hit me. I was still wearing the stupid jumpsuit. That was probably attracting him most right now.
"You could just give me a chance." He suggested, wrapping his arm around my waist. Creep. And the timing of this worked out perfectly so his arm was around my waist as we walked into the room.
I felt the blood drain away from my face. Crap, I didn't need people thinking I just flirted with guys all the time! I quickly shoved away from me.
"Hey, welcome back!" Latts said to me. Clearly she hadn't seen me enter the room or she'd be interrogating me on what happened.
"I need to change." I growled.
***Embo's P.O.V***
"So, how do you think the mission's going?" Dengar asked me.
"Sugi's a great leader. She'll be fine." I said, scratching Marrok's ear.
"You like her." He said with a smug grin on his face.
"Of course I do, she's my best friend!" I said, stating the obvious.
"Oh no, I mean the other 'like'." He smirked.
"So now you're the matchmaker?" I asked him, annoyed.
"Whatever, you don't want to admit it, fine by me!" He said, putting up his hands in mock surrender.
Just then the stealth mission team walked in the door. And Hardeen had his arm around Sugi's waist! I didn't want to go jumping to conclusions but it was pretty hard not to. I looked at Dengar who raised an eyebrow questioningly.
"I wonder what happened on that mission." Dengar muttered. It almost sounded like he felt bad for me.
"Yeah, I do too." I agreed.
A/N: AAAAH! The intensity! The relationship problems!
