"What the hell was that?" Emily shrieked, her curls falling in front of her face, giving her a slightly mad look.
Alex flipped her blonde hair absentmindedly and gave me an icy look."Yes Noel, exactly what happened back there? Exposing your wings to the public! How taboo!" she exclaimed, I snorted.
"How taboo!" I mimicked, "Don't you think changing your appearance-no, body is a bit more taboo? It is a thing of the devil, my wings, on the other hand, are a good omen!" I said, a smug smile gracing my lips.
"HELLO? I'm still here! JoJo, on the other hand, has been replaced...with this!" Emily stated, gesturing madly at Alex. She continued. "If I had know you looked like this, I could've put you to work. Even whoring yourself out is better than mooching off of me!" Emily said, a look of complete shock crossed Alex's face.
"Hello...?" Allen's voice chimed in, the air was thick with female pheromone and he was standing in a corner, his eyes glazing over with confusing. "As if I would degrade myself! What do you think I am? A nymph?" Alex countered. "Enough!" screamed the lone lion, in a room filled with bloodthirsty lionesses. I felt a blush creep across my face.
Why would I react like that? Maybe it was the testosterone that was highly lacking in the room... The room fell silent and a sigh was emitted from Emily. "I apologize for my rude behavior." Emily said, her sweet demeanor returning.
"Let me explain everything that's going on?" Allen offered, Emily nodded and he proceeded.
"So what does the Order have to do with me?" asked Emily, looking at Alex. Alex lowered her eyes and pulled something out of her pocket.
Innocence.
"Because you're an accommodator." Alex said, giving a slight frown. In our line of work we oversaw the fates of the exorcists, and they were never pleasant.
Emily nodded and took it gingerly from Alex's hands. It's form changed as if deciding what shape it was going to become until it finally decided on it's form. It
was a shotgun. A BIG ASS barrel alone was easily the width of her thigh, she slung it over her shoulder as if it weighed nothing. She was unnaturally calm...
"Well, from what you said earlier it's no longer safe for my father if I'm here." she said, her face fell and she left the room to say her goodbyes. "So... How was
crowd control?" I asked, trying to lighten the mood. Allen's face twisted into a darker ego. He let out an evil laugh, "I had worse when I was studying under
Master Cross... Hundreds, no, thousands of people were chasing after us, and he fed me to the dogs..." "Okay then... What lovely weather we're having!" I
screamed as thunder boomed and a sheet of rain fell violently. "CAN I NOT CHANGE THE SUBJECT TO SOMETHING HAPPIER?" I screamed, anime tears
streaming down my face. "Guess we're not leaving anytime soon..." Alex said, laying down on the bed. I sighed and guided Allen (who was still in his flashback)
towards the love seat. How did I get myself into this mess? One moment I was in Greece getting Emily and now...? Allen's head was resting was resting in my
lap, completely out of it, Catalina's was face was suction cupped to Kanda's face, Alex was in the middle of seducing Lavi, Emily was seducing Lenalee (much to
her distress) and ALL because someone spiked the punch. I had been lucky enough to be doubtful of Catalina's innocence when she had suggested we throw a
welcoming party for Emily and I, but I did not avoid being locked in a room full of drunks. "Okay," slurred out Alex, who was now sitting in Lavi's lap, a hand
latched onto his fiery hair. "We should all place..." she paused for dramatic effect (and to hiccup). "Spin the bottle!" she said, giggling drunkly. Lavi grinned
stupidly. "I think that is a brilliant idea!" he said, I focused on Allen instead of Lavi's hormonal driven stupidity. His breathing turned rhythmic and I knew he
had fallen asleep, my mind wandered as I studied his face, his lips... What would it be like to kiss him? Taste him? I felt myself move forward, compelled. It
would just be one little kiss, nothing would happen. I tentatively kissed the sleeping Allen, taking in a little of his essence. A little of his innocence. His lips
tasted like alcohol and fruit punch, a combo I would only accept if it came from him. His body jerked and an arm brought me closer as he responded to the kiss,
waking up. He let out a soft moan and deepened the kiss. Oh my god...I jerked, my wings pushing me upward and pushed him off of me. "W-what are you
doing?" I asked, that was a stupid question... What was I doing?
Emily's POV
no... Please no... My heart rapidly beat, as if understanding the scene before me, understanding what I could not. My clothes lay on the floor
next to the bed I was sitting in. To the left of me was a breathing, possibly naked, body. Of which, I had no idea who it belonged to. "Let's just
keep it that way... Just...for the moment..." I whispered, pulling the blanket up higher. After a grunt I was pulled closer by the body, I closed
my eyes. Who could I have slept with? Was I even still a virgin? I opened my eyes to see a red head staring at me. I had slept with a
complete stranger. I screamed. He covered his ears and fell out of the bed, yup, he was naked. I pulled the blanket over my head and curled
up in a ball. My heart beat pounded away in my ears. "Oh my god, oh my god, oh my-" "Don't tell me that was the first time..." the man
asked, sounds of him getting up followed and he plopped down next to me. "Yes... Yes, it was... What exactly, did we do last night?" I asked,
my voice shaking. I heard a sigh and imagined him smiling. "I won't tell you until you come out." He said, "A beautiful women like you
shouldn't hide." I quickly sat up, wishing I hadn't. It felt like my skull spilt in half and I let out a moan. "Stupid alcohol... I am going to
MURDER Catalina..." I said, looking at him hesitantly. He faintly chuckled. "Is that who was responsible for the...utter chaos last night?" he
asked, I nodded. "What happened last night, exactly. Word for word, Mr...?" I turned and looked at him. While on the ground he had
thankfully put on some pants. Making things a little bit less awkward. "Cross, my name is Marian Cross." he said, pulling out a cigarette. "You
mind?" he asked, I shook my head. I had gotten used to the smell after working many hours at the inn. He lit up and proceeded to explain.
"Well... You're a very cute drunk, I can tell you that much. I found you dancing with a coat hanger in the hallway. And when I tried to pull
you away you started crying." he said, laughing. I sighed and covered my face, hiding my blush. Was I really that bad? "But before that...?" I
prompted. What had he been doing before he found me? "I had been drinking as well. I wasn't exactly drunk, mind you." he said, taking
another drag. "So you remembered what we did last night?" I asked, hopefully. More information, the better, even if it was this...information.
"Um... No. Sorry, I have no recollection of anything after I took you back to this room. We had some drinks and then I blanked out." He said,
then he looked at me with approval. "I wouldn't mind if I had sex with you last night." He said. I shrieked and threw pillow at his head.
"Don't be so blunt!" I squeaked out, giving a cry of despair. "Close your eyes." I ordered him. He gave a look of confusion, then nodded and
turned around, still smoking. I quickly dressed and looked in the mirror next to the bed. My hair... My neck... A hickey had placed itself smack-
dab on the side on my neck, and my hair looked as if... As if I had actually had had sex. "Oh no..."I moaned. It couldn't get any worse than
this.
Catalina Pov
Things couldn't be any worse. I had been awakened by a blood curdling scream, only to be followed by this: "Catalina, I AM GOING KILL
YOU!" called Noel on the other side of the door. "My poor Lenalee!", cried Komui. I sighed, sliding down against the door. I hadn't done
anything SO bad. Just a bit fun, but they didn't see it as that... "Catalina..." I looked to see Kanda getting up from the bed. His hair was
disheveled and loose and his hair tie was around my neck. I laughed nervously and looked around the room. Where was Mugen? It's lack of
appearance meant I had a couple more minutes to live. "What. Did. You. DO?" he said, putting emphasis on each word. I cringed and
scratched my head, staring at my shoes. "Well... Um, how much do you remember is the question here..." Translation: How much can I get
away with. The question caught him off guard and he looked off, thinking. One extra minute... "I remember bits and pieces, most of which I
think were dreams. But I do remember you giving me and drink, then everything went dark." he said, glaring at me know. The pounding
behind had ceased and I stood up, smiling. Smiles aren't suspicious! "Thing is. I just wanted to have some fun and you were caught in the
crossfire..." He took a step forward and storm cloud formed above his head. "Kanda... What are you doing...?" He pulled Mugen from the
wreckage of the room. "What do you with that?" I asked, taking a step back, my back hit the door with a faint thump. He took another step
forward. "...Espera... P-por fa-oye! K-anda queiro viver!" I ducked and Mugen stabbed the door above my head. So much for Spanish saving
my ass. As Kanda freed Mugen I kicked open the door and bolted. More trouble wasn't far off. "Cat~a~lin~a" came a singsong voice. I
shrieked as I turned around, facing a very angry birdie. "Well, hello, Noel. Don't you look peachy." I said, smiling. She grinned back devilishly
and spread her wings. "Well, thank you. Um..." I let out a wicked war cry and vaulted over her head. I ran back to Kanda. At least with him
he'd save me from Noel before he killed me. Maybe?
Okay guys, those of you who actually read this anyway. I'm sorry I haven't updated lately, and I'm not going to lie. This chapter was mostly a filler since I'm trying to figure out the plot and the POVs will be switching around a bit..… But remember to review because when I get a notice in my email account telling me someone reviewed (or subscribed in this case), it jogs my memory and I update :D. But please bear with me here and remember, I own only my OCs and my friend Sherley owns Emily :P so you can't have her. Ciao~
