Lita woke up hours later to a sound of knocking at her door. She grumbled and looked at her clock.
12:30 am.
"Oh they are so dead."
She got up and moved to the door. She opened it blinked in surprise.
"What the hell, Herro!"
"Hn."
Lita frowned at him and crossed her arms over chest. "What do you want?"
Herro glanced around the room. When satisfied he turned to leave.
Lita's jaw dropped open. She stormed out into the hall after him.
She sneered out in rage, "Excuse me."
Herro stopped but didn't turn to face her.
Lita grabbed his shoulder and spun him around.
Herro aimed his gun at her face. A glare was fixed on his.
Lita rivaled his glare. "You can't shoot me."
Herro replied with a sneer, "I can and I will, if I have too."
"Yeah but it's your mission. If I die that endangers the real Ralena."
Lita smirked triumphantly, as Herro scowled. He lowered his gun and pulled away from her.
Lita watched him walk away. When he disappeared behind the corner she stuck tongue out at him.
Trowa and Noin entered Ralena's office. They couldn't find Lita in her room so they had the guards search for her.
Herro refused to help and the guards came out with nothing.
So now they had no choice but to invade her office.
And that's where they found her. She was curled up in the chair fast asleep.
When Noin shut the door Lita's head jerked up.
She rubbed her eyes when the light from the sun hit her.
She then yawned and looked at who else was in the room.
"Ralena why are you sleeping here?"
Lita answered, "Well I had no choice. How can you sleep in your room when someone is knocking on your door at 12:30 A.M. and then every hour after that?"
Lita stood and yawned again. She rolled her head side to side getting the kinks out of her neck.
"What time is it?"
Trowa stated, "10 a.m."
Lita nodded and walked to the door. She turned to them.
"Oh and can you tell Herro not bother me that late at night. Please." She opened the door and walked out with Noin.
They headed towards her room. Trowa went in search of Herro.
Trowa found him in his room on the laptop. He cleared his throat.
Herro spun around with his gun in hand.
He grunted when he realized it was just Trowa.
He set his gun down and went back to typing. Trowa moved towards him silently.
Finally he stated, "Li...Ralena exclaimed to Noin and myself of your visit to her last night."
Herro stopped typing. He turned to Trowa, his face held no expression or emotion. His eyes were cold.
He spoke calmly, "it's my mission to keep Ralena's decoy a secret. I checked on her so if there is a mouse in the kingdom they would never realize that Lita is Ralena."
Herro then turned to the computer and started typing. Trowa's lip twitched upward.
"Ralena has asked me to tell you not to bother her that late again."
Herro scowled, "don't worry, I won't disobey her orders."
Trowa nodded and headed to the door.
"Oh and Trowa."
Trowa stopped from opening the door.
"..."
Herro continued, not stopping his typing, "if you are Lita's sister why is she so annoying and different from you?"
Trowa smirked and thought, "So she's gotten to him too."
Trowa turned the knob and opened the door.
He turned to Herro.
"Herro she is only annoying to those she is annoyed with. If you don't annoy her, perhaps she won't be so annoying to you."
Trowa shut the door.
Herro glanced over his shoulder, as his fingers stopped clicking the keys.
He thought about Trowa's words before looking at the screen and continuing.
Lita followed Noin into the courtyard with a small yawn.
Lita asked, "Um can you tell me why we are out here?"
Noin replied, "Miss Ralena you come out here every day to speak with the students. To answer questions and such."
Lita nodded and tilted her head to the side.
She wasn't paying attention and bumped into Noin's back.
Lita took a step back, "hey what's with the brakes Noin?"
Noin was looking towards the building to the dorms. Lita followed Noin's gaze and saw Herro with Wufei.
Lita looked at Noin and flat out stated, "No way."
"Ralena..."
Lita shook her head, "no I will not call out his name."
Noin sighed.
"Uh, uh I ain't calling out his name like some hormone driven school girl." Lita crossed her arms.
Noin whispered, "Miss Ralena you do it every time you..."
"I said no. I will not cry out Herro's name."
Lita looked at Noin's straight face and determination. Lita then glanced around. All the students were waiting for her too do it.
"No way...oh hell, I'll call out his name."
Lita cleared her throat and clasped her hands at her heart. Then after taking in a deep breath sung out, "Heeeeerrrrrrrrrroooooo!"
Lita saw Noin grin and stopped herself from scowling.
Lita then took off towards Herro. She then latched onto Herro with a grin plastered on her face.
Herro who must have not been expecting this looked down at her in surprise.
Lita then thought, "After this mission, I go solo. No more team work."
Wufei scowled at them. "Baka onna get off him."
Lita fluttered her eyelids and pulled away.
She looked at Wufei and blew him a raspberry. Then she turned and walked back towards Noin.
Herro looked at Wufei who was boiling with rage.
Later that night at 1 o'clock in the morning Lita shot up to the sound of knocking at her door.
She climbed out of bed stormed to the loud noise. She swung it open and came face to face with Herro.
Herro scanned her room before turning and leaving.
Lita watched him go anger boiling into her soul. She slammed her door behind her and stalked down the hall.
She entered the study and muttered, "oh when I get my hands on him, I'll shred him apart."
Lita moved to the drawers in the desk.
She pulled them opened and shuffled through them. She found a bottle of MacNaughton Canadian whiskey. It was 40% (80 proof). She didn't know what that meant.
She sat down behind the desk and stated, "You must have needed this everyday."
She opened the bottle of alcohol for the first time in her life and chugged down about 1/4 of it.
She wiped the rim of whiskey left on her lips.
"Not bad."
She took down about another 1/4 of it. Her body was numb and her eyes blurred.
She started laughing. "That jerk...waking me up at 1 o flipping clock in the morning. Who the hell does he think he is? I'm going to give him a piece of my mind."
She got up knocking the chair back. She swayed for a second before getting her ground.
She gulped more down before moving to the door. She swung open the studies door and stumbled out.
She turned down the hall she remembered Herro going down. Lita stormed down the hall to the door she barely remembered Trowa told her was Herro's.
She leaned against it for a second, gaining confidence. She then knocked on it.
At first there was no answer. So she knocked louder this time.
Finally the door opened, "Omae o Korosu."
Lita scowled at him and slurred, "You jerk."
Herro lowered his gun then put it away. "Lita?"
Lita poked him in the chest. "How dare you wake me up at 1 am? I need my beauty sleep for gods sakes."
Herro took a step back moving away from her index finger.
"Are you drunk?"
Lita glared, "of course not. If I was drunk I wouldn't be out here yelling at you!"
Lita licked her lips. "I only had one drink in the study. That's all."
Lita swayed on her feet a bit. She blinked a few times before she started laughing.
"Uh why am I here?"
Herro scowled, "Lita you are drunk."
She shook her head. The area around her swam and she wobbled on her feet.
She fell forward, landing into Herro's arms. Her lips landed over his own. Herro stared at her closed eyelids. She didn't move away or move closer.
Suddenly her body went limb in his arms and she collapsed.
He barely caught her before she hit would have hit the floor. He frowned before lifting her up in his arms.
He carried her inside his room and shut the door.
12:30 am.
"Oh they are so dead."
She got up and moved to the door. She opened it blinked in surprise.
"What the hell, Herro!"
"Hn."
Lita frowned at him and crossed her arms over chest. "What do you want?"
