As Alexis entered the room, she found Heero clicking away on his laptop and a bare bed with a pile of blankets and fresh sheets across from there. A chair was at the end of the bed and
she piled her papers and laptop onto it before making her bed. "So.." she said, breaking the silence after a while. Heero looked up from his work and raised an eyebrow. "So what?" "Well.. you were nice enough to let me share your room.." Heero had turned back to his work and shrugged. "Well I figured you'd enjoy it here more than with a woman hater-" "YUY!" "..or with a boy hyped up on horomones." "HEEeero!" Alexis rolled her eyes and walked out to the hallway and shouted down
the corridor, "You mind here?!" She laughed a little as she came back in and sat down on the edge of her bed. "Do you have any idea on how long we're going to stay here?" she asked, lying down on her back, staring at the ceiling. She heard a few rustles and a soft click as Heero shut his laptop off and slid it beneath a loose floorboard. "I don't know how long we'll be here." he said finally, crawling into his own bed and turning his back to her. "Yeah well.. may as well make the best of it." Alexis said, shuffling under her own blankets and turning onto her side and looking over at Heero. It's not so bad.. Heero's not that bad of a guy. I don't think at least. Never know.. could shoot me
again.. but maybe he won't. Alexis grinned, Heero'd already fallen asleep across from her. Yawning slightly, she cuddled down into her own bed and pillow. It had been a really.. really long day.
Once Alexis had finally awaken, Heero was already gone and voices could be heard downstairs. She stretched out and realized that there were several pairs of new clothes at the foot of her bed. Crawling out of bed, she picked up a few of them and looked them over. As she was holding them up to her body, the door opened and Trowa entered. "We did the best we could, we could only estimate the sizes." Alexis smiled, "Oh it's alright Trowa, these will fit just fine. Thanks." With that, Trowa nodded and left the room so she could change in peace.
"They aren't half bad.." she muttered, looking into the mirror and admiring herself. She grabbed a brush from the pile and pulled the pen out of her hair, allowing her miles of black hair to tumble down to her knees. "Hey there cutie, hungry?" Alexis turned to see Duo leaning against the door frame. "Duo..." Heero warned as he re-entered the room. "Hey, just letting her know that breakfast is on the table." he said, grinning at Alexis then Heero, "unless of course you just want to
bring it to her yourself..." he said in a sing-song voice. Heero grunted and turned away and Alexis turned back to the mirror, blushing. In the reflection of the mirror, she could see hints of red tint on
Heero's cheeks as well. "Nah it's cool Duo, I'll go get it myself." she finally said, her cheeks back to normal. "Alright then, see ya down there." he said, turning and whistling while he walked away.
"Baka.." Heero murmured as Duo left. Alexis giggled, "Oh he's just trying to be nice." she said, pulling her hair up into a long ponytail. "More like thinking you'd be nice in bed..." he said, revealing
his laptop from beneath the floorboards. Alexis grinned but as he lifted his head, her expression changed to a considerate smile. "Well you're a doll to watch out for me Hee-chan." she said as she walked out of the room, shutting the door behind her quietly. "Hee-chan..." Heero said as she'd left. Hee-chan?? Hee-chan... heh he shook his head and plugged the laptop in and began trying to retreive files about a Miss Alexis Curie Xalias.
Alexis yawned and came into the kitchen where Trowa, Quatre, and Wufei were seated around a table. "Is Heero always that quiet?" she asked while pouring a bowl of cereal. "You mean you got him to say more than one word?" Wufei snorted, drinking the last of his juice. "You're lucky to get a grunt out of him." With that, he stood up and washed his glass in the sink before setting it
on a towel to dry. Alexis grinned, "Yeah well.." "Toast?" Quatre offered. "No thanks." she said, digging into her plain cereal. "Aww babe, how can you EAT that stuff?! There's no sugar on it at
all!" Duo moaned, coming in and heading for the sugar bowl. Alexis rolled her eyes, "And there's also no fat down here." she said, pointing to her stomach and then poking Duo in his slightly protruding gut. "Hey now.." he said, sulking. "Haha, she's got you there Maxwell." Wufei commented. "Funny." Duo said, plunking into a chair next to Alexis and slinging his arm across the back of hers. "Like your new clothes?" he asked, looking her over. "Yeah, actually I do." she said,
looking at them herself. A few more pairs of jeans, a couple of turtleneck sweaters, a few tank tops and a pair of jean shorts. Not that bad of a selection. "We would have gotten you some personal
items but..." Quatre trailed off. Alexis nodded, "Oh I understand!" Quatre breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. "Good. Would you like to help me out in the backyard?" Alexis finished off her cereal and stood up. "Sure. Just let me get my jacket."
