Anyhoo, on with the story! Read and Review, plzz!
Chapter 21: I have no fucking idea
I open my eyes. And close them again.
"GINGER I SAW THAT YOU ARE SO AWAKE GET YOUR ASS UP NOW!" A voice shouts. I open my eyes again. "Unnnghgnnaahggngh..." I moan, curling up into a ball and closing them once again. Mem yanks my blankets away and wraps them around her arm.
"Bud I dun wunna..." I say, pulling my shirt over my knees and turning over. She climbs up the ladder and whacks me with her blanket arm until I finally wave my hands around and sit up.
"Ugh, fine! Whud tahm iz id...?" I say sleepily. She shrugs. "How should I know? But you've been sleeping forever." She says. Then suddenly, Alex pops up next to my bunk.
"IT'S ADVENTURE TIME, BITCH!" He shouts. Then he jumps back down on the floor and walks over to his bunk. I can't help but snicker.
"Just get up, okay?" Mem says, dropping down and walking outside toward the bathroom. I yawn and unroll my blanket. "Eventually..." I say quietly to myself, pulling it over me and squirming until I'm comfortable again. Mem's probably going to take a shower... which means I have about fifteen minutes tops to get some more rest. Oh, well. It's better than nothing.
"Hey, Ginger, if you don't get up soon then we'll miss all the good stuff at breakfast." Soul's voice says. I feel a hand on my back shake me back and forth in my bed. I grumble in response.
"Rawr..." I say in an effort to sound intimidating. I don't think it works though.
"Come on, Ginge. Today's supposed to be bacon." He says. I open my eyes and rub them as I sit up. I crawl over to the ladder, climb down, and slump to the floor. "I'm too tired..." I say, my words slurred. He grabs my hand and helps me up. I fall against his chest. "Okay, now you're starting to get on my nerves." He says. I look up at him and try to glare, but I don't think that works either.
"KYAAAAA...!" I yawn, standing up straight. "Only cuz I rlly wan sum bakin rite now..." I say. He laughs. "You're so weird." He says, patting my head. I stretch out my arms and yawn again.
"Yeah well I cud say th same fer you, mizter..." I say, walking into the bathroom. I stretch one more time, turn on the sink, and wait for the water to turn cold.
"HOLY CRUD THAT'S FREEZING!" I exclaim after splashing the frigid water in my face. I shake my head and wipe my face off with my hands. I pull my hair back into pigtails. The ponytail holders kind of slip though. I examine myself in the mirror. Before going to bed last night I switched back into my rainbow shirt and purple sweatpants. Plus some rainbow socks I found.
"Alright, somebody get me some god damn bacon before I slap someone..." I say as I walk back into the cabin. Soul laughs, slips on his sweatshirt, and walks towards me. "I'm comin'," He says. I take his hand in mine and lean my head on his shoulder as we walk down the hall and into the elevator. I press the button for the second-to-top floor and the door closes.
"You okay? You seemed pretty upset about yesterday," Soul says, looking down at me. I shrug. "Eh. I honestly don't care. Julie's always been a bitch." I tell him. He laughs and plants a kiss on my head. "Well I'm glad you're feeling better." He says.
The elevator doors slide open and we walk out into the hallway. After grabbing our breakfast, we sit down at our usual table. "Yum... I haven't had bacon in forever..." I say, taking a bite of a bacon strip. Soul nods, already on his third.
"Yo! You guys are here early!" Alex says, dropping his tray and plopping down across from me. Mem sits down on one side of him, and Tommi on the other. Hmm... I wonder where Melody and James are?
"Hey, Tommi?" I ask my friend, who's currently staring at her tray and not saying anything. She blinks and looks up. "Huh? Oh, yeah what's up, Ginge?" She says, smiling cheerfully. I smile back. "Oh, nothing. You were just spacing out. Anything on your mind?" I ask her. She stares at me for a few seconds, then shakes her head. "Nope!" She replies, taking a bacon strip and nibbling on the end of it.
"Mmm... I wish I had some pancakes..." I say, shoving the last of a strip in my mouth and poking at the yellow blob on my plate that I think is supposed to be eggs. But I honestly can't tell.
"I'm done," Soul says, shoving his empty tray forward. I stare at it, then my plate.
"How do you eat that fast...?" I say, staring at him. He shrugs and leans back. "I dunno. How do you eat that slow?" He responds. I turn back to my plate and finish up my bacon. "Hey, do you know where Melody and James are?" I ask to anyone willing to answer. Mem nods and gulps down some 'eggs.'
"Yeah, they left for a mission early this morning." She responds. I nod. "Cool. When'll they be back?" I ask. She shrugs. "How am I supposed to know?" She responds.
"Eh. My guess is they'll be back by dinner at the latest." Alex says. I shrug. Just then a slumping, yawning heap of pigtails and pink pajamas slugs her way into the room.
"Mornin' Maka!" Alex chirps in an irritatingly cheery way. She moans and sits down next to me. "Where... HYAAAAMM... were you guys...? I wuz all... HYAAAAMM... alone when I woke up..." She says between yawns.
"Oh, sorry," I say. "Aren't you get something to eat?" I ask her. She looks at me, her mouth hanging open slightly. "Yeah, sure..." She says, bringing herself to a standing position and slumping over to the food line.
"Somebody's not a morning person..." I say, watching after her. Soul laughs. "Like you're one to talk, Ginger!" He says. I shrug. "I know, but so's she." I say as Maka slumps back over to our table, a strip of bacon hanging out of her mouth.
"Oh, well. When's the next mission we have?" I ask. Alex swallows before answering me. "Should be in a few weeks. They have a lot of people to get through, and they can only send out three pairs a day." He says. I nod. "Good to know." I say, gulping down the remains of my orange juice.
AN: Blah blah... blibbity blah. I'm so not in the mood for author's notes right now. Oh, well. ACTIVATE FALSE CHEERINESS! Alrighty guys, I really hoped you like this chappy! Read and review, plzz!
Byee!
