Hehehe last chapter was so long! And so much fun to write! More in this chapter, even more fluff ;) but you'll never guess what happens o.o
Lila sighed and turned over. She was trying to get to sleep but it was hard. She kept on thinking about Doc, what he was doing, was he alright, when is he coming back, and she was worried that he may have skinned out. Finally she gave up and crawled over to where Steve and Charlie were sleeping.
"Hey guys, are you awake?" She whispered. She poked Steve in the side but all he did was grunt and turn over. She did the same to Charlie but he didn't even respond. So she looked for Billy and saw him snoring over by Star. It was obvious he was up late so she didn't want to bother him. So she went over to Chavez and poked him.
"Chavez." She whispered. Chavez opened his eyes groggily then closed them.
"Chavez are you awake?" Lila poked him again.
"I was but not anymore." Chavez said sleepily. "What's wrong?"
"I can't sleep. Plus i'm to cold." Lila said. The next minute she shrieked quietly when Chavez pulled her down beside him. He wrapped his arm around her waist and said, "Better?"
Lila nodded wordlessly and began to fall asleep.
"Night Chavez, love you." She murmered. It was reflex actually, whenever her mom said good night she'd reply with "Night mom, love you.".
"I love you too chica."
"Hey you two time to get up." A voice shook Lila out of her dream. She opened her eyes and saw Billy leering down at her. She forgot about Chavez until she tried to get up then was pulled down by Chavez's arm around her waist.
"I don't want to get up Chivato." Chavez muttered with his eyes still closed. "After all the hell you've put everyone through recently we deserve some decent sleep."
Lila chuckled at Billy's annoyed expression and got up from her sleeping place. She heard Chavez sigh and follow.
"Did you want something Billy?" She asked.
"Yeah I need you and Steve to scount around." Billy said absentmindedly. He was still looking at Chavez funny so Lila shrugged and went over to Spirit.
"Hey girl, you think I can ride you for one afternoon?"
Spirit whinnied and bobbed her head up and down for an answer. Lila grinned, got her stuff and mounted Spirit. To her surprise it was actually easy to guide her. So Lila rode over to Steve and said, "Well come on then."
Steve got onto Bonita and they rode around a bit. Looking around fruitlessly.
"Why did Billy tell me to do this? It's so boring." Lila complained. She gazed around and saw nothing but rabbits for the hundreth time that day. Beside her she heard Steve mumble something and she could tell he was just as bored at she was.
"Wanna race?" She asked looking at Steve.
"Like you could win. You barely know how to ride." Steve chuckled.
"You're on." Lila smirked and took off. She laughed when she heard Steve curse and follow her. Urging Spirit on she turned slightly left and kept on riding until she was about two miles away from the camp. Wind was whipping past her but Lila didn't particularly care at that point, all she cared about was beating Steve.
"I'm catchin up!" She heard Steve yell. She looked behind her and saw him closing in so she urged Spirit to go faster. She slowed down a bit after about five minutes then stopped at a large rock.
"I won!" Lila laughed, jumped off of Spirit then stood on top of the rock to wait for Steve. Once he got there she jumped on the back of Bonita and said, "Haha I beat you! I won! You got beat by a girl, again." then she slid off and got on the rock again.
"Don't get used to it. I'll beat you back." Steve said huffily.
"Aww don't be mad that you lost." Lila giggled. She grabbed a cantine of water and gulped some down only to spit it out again digustedly. "Ew there's beer in there!"
Steve perked up and grabbed the bottle.
"Ugh I hate whiskey." Lila shuddered.
An evil grin spread over Steve's face and Lila didn't like it. She narrowed her eyes at him but didn't say anything.
"Want some then?" He chuckled.
"Don't make me hurt you."
Steve shrugged and got off of Bonita. Lila looked out towards the horizon and wished Doc would ride up from it, or better yet she wished her family would magically appear and whisk her away. Sighing she turned back to the real world and grabbed her cantine to drink. It tasted a bit strange but Lila ignored it. After drinking her whole cantine she got back on Spirit and said, "Race you back!" then took off riding.
When they got back Lila plopped herself down on a log and held her head. She felt dizzy but she just figured that was from riding so fast. Then she felt airheaded and she realized that she was getting drunk. See for her it took about an hour for whiskey to digest into her system, and by then she would be acting completely nuts.
"Steve..." She growled angrily. He must have spiked her water. She looked up from her spot and saw him talking with Charlie by a rock near the horses. Growling she got up and stalked towards him angrily.
"What's wrong with you Lila?" Charlie asked noticing her furious expression. He jumped when Lila grabbed the front of Steve's shirt and shook him.
"You asshole! You mother fucking asshole!" She shouted shaking Steve hard. "You knew I couldn't handle whiskey and yet you spiked my cantine with it!"
"Get off me woman! I don't know what you're talkin about!" Steve squeeked.
Lila growled and was about to do something drastic but four arms pulled her away from Steve. Breathing deeply and furiously she turned and saw it was Billy and Chavez who grabbed her. Charlie was still looking shell shocked.
"Can uh I see your cantine?" He sputtered.
Lila threw her cantine at him and fixed her death glare back on Steve who was pale as a ghost.
"Lila this ain't your cantine! This is mine." Charlie shrieked. It was kinda funny to hear a man shriek actually.
"Huh?" Was all Lila could say.
"It has my name on it." Charlie showed her the little CB marked at the bottem and Lila almost choked.
"So if that's not my cantine why am I getting sick?"
"I did have some whiskey mixed in with my water." Charlie opened up the cantine and shrieked again. "You drank my whole damn cantine!"
Lila ignored him and turned back to Steve sheepishly. "Sorry bout that." She mumbled. Steve just grinned and pulled her into a one armed hug.
"Ah I forgive ya. I'd have done the same myself."
Lila pulled away and sat back down on the log. She knew she would be drunk as a skunk soon so she just sighed and got some water. It would be hell in about thirty minutes for everyone.
'Boy I can't wait to see what idiotic things i'm gonna do.' She thought angrily. 'I can't believe that I couldn't taste the damn whiskey in that water! I should have, why didn't I?'
Soon Lila was giggling and couldn't even stand. So she opted for sitting on the log swaying her head whenever the fire flickered. Heading her words of caution the other Regulators stayed a good ten feet away from her but kept their eyes on her to protect her. Even in her drunked state she could still shoot though, seeing as how Steve spit out some tobacco and Lila shot it from 5 feet away.
"Where is (hic) everyone?" Lila slurred. She looked around through blurry eyes and noticed someone walking towards her. "Yay another person!" She squeeled.
"Lila you should lay down and try to sleep." Chavez said picking her up.
"Yeah you could hurt yourself." Steve added taking her guns and knife.
"Hey gimme those back!" Lila snapped. "I need them to kill everyone who killed Dick." She barely muttered the last part.
"You'll get them back in the morning." Chavez dropped her onto her bedroll and tucked her in. Steve handed her some water and said, "Need anything else?"
"Mmhmm, don't I get a good night kiss?" Lila giggled when both men froze, not sure who she was talking to.
"Uh..."
Lila smiled, reached up and kissed Chavez lightly before passing out.
Both men just stood there, stunned until Billy called them over to ask if Lila was asleep. Chavez just shook his head and walked back while Steve chuckled and stood guard on a rock above Lila.
"Stop shoutin you idiots!" Lila yelled the next morning. She heard the Reguators chuckling but before they were talking very loudly.
"Sorry Lila, you feeling better?" Billy asked.
"Peachy." Lila snapped. Her head felt like it was going to split open so she assumed she was experiancing her first hangover. And boy did it feel like hell. She grabbed her blanket and put it over her head angrily to block out the sun.
"Lila come on out." Billy laughed. He poked her blanket until she emerged looking pissed.
"What?" She growled. She was not in the mood to deal with her idiotic cousin right now. All she wanted to do was take a nap until she wasn't feeling horrible.
"Maybe you should eat something. It always helps me." Steve said coming over to her and offering her some stew. Lila grimaced and shook her head. If she ate anything she knew it would come back to haunt her.
"Suit yourself." Billy chuckled grabbing the stew. Steve glared at him and walked back to get some stew for himself.
Lila just growled to herself and threw the blanket back over her head. It was bad enough that she had a hang over but she didn't want the others to pity her or see her like this. Plus she couldn't remember what she did last night but if she was drunk it had to have been embaressing.
"Come on Lila you didn't humiliate yourself at all." Billy laughed. Again Lila could swear he could read minds or something.
"I didn't?" She asked peaking out from her blanket.
"Nope. You did kiss Chavez though."
'...huh?'
Yay cliffie xD Kinda, anyway R&R!
