Exploring

"Um… I'm going to take a shower, I didn't have time to take one in the morning so… if you want you can wait for me in the guest room." Fuu suggested

"Ok…" he replied eyeing the room

Fuu nodded and went over to another door a few feet away. Ferio sighed and smiled to himself this was almost too good to be true, it was a shame they would only be staying for two days. He heard the sound of water running and stepped out of his room. He went over to the hall to look at the picture again. It was just wonderful.

After starring at it for a while he headed back to the room, and stopped at the open door, to Fuu's room. It wouldn't hurt to take just a peak ne? he cautiously stepped in and looked around. He had seen her room before but never in real life. Everything was neat and in order, the bed was perfectly smooth and the little things on her desk and bookshelf perfectly set.

Something shone on top of the bookshelf that caught his attention. He chuckled picking it up. 'she still has this?' he wondered. Although he wouldn't be surprised, he too still had the communicator safe somewhere in his own room. He opened one of the books trying to decipher her language, 'eh forget it…' he said placing it back on the shelf.

To the side there was a wooden in the wall, it's door reflected everything in site. A mirror. It was halfway open. He took a peak inside and found a lot of weird clothes. And in the very end of the hole in the wall, he saw it. The green little outfit she had on when she was in Cefiro. It probably didn't fit her anymore but there it was. There was also a tall shelf with a lot of things on it. In bottles and jars.

He saw something that caught his attention. A transparent container with green gooey stuff in it. It had bubbles. He took the container and took off the lid. 'what if it's poison?' he thought. 'nah! A little bit won't do any harm…' he took his index finger and put it in the cold gooey substance. Bringing it back out some of it stuck to his finger. 'Is it food?' he wondered smelling the goo.

It didn't smell bad, in fact it smelled kinda nice. Sticking out his tongue he put some on the tip then savoured it. 'Doesn't taste like anything, well a little bitter.' He put down the container and moved on to a bottle. it was a purple bottle with some sort of liquid in it.

He examined the bottle carefully and found no way to open it. By accident he pushed the top and a clear liquid poured out a tiny whole in the cap. He smiled and faced the hole towards him pushing harder on the lid.

He coughed and almost passed out when a cloud of tiny droplets of a very smelly liquid suffocated him. He blew away the rest and coughed some more continuing his discovery in the closet. He was so entertained he didn't notice the sound of the water being turned off, some humming and the door of the bathroom being open.

He had found another bottle, but this one wasn't transparent. It was blue, with the same top as the smelly thing. maybe it worked the same way.

"Ferio?!"

He pushed down on the cap smothering himself with a sticky substance.

"What are you doing putting on hair spray in my closet?" she asked with big eyes

He stared. She had… almost nothing on. A small piece of cloth that came above her breasts and to the top of her thighs. Her hair was moist, sparkling some of it still sticking to her face. Fuu looked down at herself  seeing he wasn't even budging, then blushed.

"Gomen nasai Ferio! I was just… mou! What are you doing in my room anyway?!"

"huh?" his mind would still not work 100%

Fuu pushed him in the closet and shut the door, locking it from the outside.

"Oi!" he protested stumbling on a pair of shoes.

"You're not coming out of there until I finish dressing!"

.................... *blink blink* .....................

"Fuu… but your clothes are in here…" he said meekly form inside

SD Fuu sweat dropped.

~~~*°*~~~

After kicking Ferio out of her room and getting dressed. She stepped out into the hallway.

"Could you get it off?" she yelled

"Yeah pretty much…" he said from inside the bathroom

"That's why you should push the cap facing outward… hair spray burns your eyes…" she giggled.

He had also needed to take a bath smelling like styling gel, her perfume and hair spray. She had lent him one of her fathers cotton shirts and a pair of boxers he didn't use anymore. She heard the bathroom door click and looked down the hall. When Ferio came out she didn't know whether to laugh or gasp. He looked so odd with… boxers… his hair was all wet and all over the place and he had no shoes on…

"Why are you starring at me?" he asked approaching her room.

She looked up at him and giggled. He cocked his head to the side.

"You had better go to sleep… we have a lot to do tomorrow." She said heading back into her room.

"Yeah… I would say so… oyasumi Fuu…"

"Oyasumi nasai Ferio…"

~~~*°*~~~

The room was too small... yeah that's it! That's why he couldn't sleep. He was used to his huge room with a giant bed and a big window, well this one had a window too and you could see the garden as well… but.

He sighed and got up for like the twentieth time in this hour. He knew it was late… not because of the clock because he didn't know how to read it, but he could feel it…

She had said he needed sleep. I'll just say I slept fine… he thought to himself… he decided to go out to the hallway again. He sat down and leaned against the wall. The carpet was comfortable… he lay his head on one knee and shut his eyes… maybe he could sleep out here.

"Ahhh! Ite!"

he felt something step on his leg and winced, the same thing that yelped in pain.

"Fuu?"

He looked down at the floor and saw her laying sprawled over his leg. 'Oops'

"I'm sorry! I didn't see you!" she whispered

"No it's my fault… I would have moved out of the way… I didn't think… I thought you were sleeping." He said sitting her up.

"Daijoubu… I'm not hurt… I was just stunned. But… what are you doing out in the hall?"

"I… I couldn't sleep…" he confessed

"Oh… me neither…"

a very strange silence came over them. Ferio made a tiny move towards Fuu, she tucked her legs against her chest.

"Your carpet is comfortable…" he said awkwardly

"Um… thank you… I think…"

"You know… I would think of you every day… since you left…"

"Hontou ne?"

"Yeah… actually the first days I didn't even leave my room."

"I had to go out… because of school and stuff… but I did cry a lot…"

"I'm sorry…"

"Don't be, it wasn't your fault… I was sad, but I never lost hope of seeing you again…"

"I like that quality of yours… actually I didn't want to go to sleep. Every time I opened my eyes I was afraid I would be looking at my own room again… I didn't want this to be a dream…"

Fuu turned to him with one of those small smiles that made him blush for no reason. She scooted over and leaned against him.

"Your hair still looks funny…" she said ruffling his already messy hair.

"Is that a complement?"

"Yeah I guess it is…"

He encircled her in his arms and let the smell of her hair sink in to his senses. It was too little time, only two days, but for him eternity would not be enough to be with her. No words were needed anymore and they fell silent curled up on the floor.

~~~*°*~~~

The soft rise and fall of his chest slowly brought her back to consciousness. Her arms had wound up around him as well and they were still in the same position they were in last night. She peeked up at him and smiled. Messy hair. She looked down the hall to a window and realised it was barely dawn, the sun was just starting to peek over the city. It wouldn't hurt to sleep a few more minutes would it? With that decided she cuddled back up against Ferio and fell asleep.

~~~*°*~~~

"Maybe she's not here…" said a nervous red head observing the state of her other friend at the door.

"That's ridiculous Hikaru! We told her today at eleven! Why wouldn't she be here? Unless she's still asleep which I doubt."

"Well Ferio was never much of a morning person…" said a male voice

"He's right… would wake up sometimes while we were serving lunch…" said another

"Mou! But Fuu is! I know her! She gets to school an hour before it starts… except for yesterday… she wasn't late but she arrived just before the bell…"

"So what do we do…?" asked Hikaru

"Well if I know Fuu…" said Umi jumping up and down

"Umi… what are we doing?" asked Hikaru joining her

"Feh! I'm trying to reach for the key!"

"Oh…" Hikaru stopped jumping

"May I help?" asked Clef

"How?"

He went over to Umi, placing his hands on her waist and hoisting her up. Umi blushed and Hikaru giggled.

"Wow! Clef is strong!" she observed

Umi looked down at him, her face still pink.

"Hurry up! Your heavy!"

"Nande?!?!" she shrieked elbowing him in the face.

"Itai!" he let go of Umi and rubbed his red nose, causing of course Umi to fall right on top of him. Hikaru laughed and clutched her stomach.

"Clef no baka!! That hurt!" she said again on top of Clef

"Allow me…" offered Lantis. He reached up and slid his hand across the door frame. He took the key and gave it to Hikaru.

"Arigatou Lantis…" she giggled.

Once inside they began to inspection the house. There was nothing down where they were so they decided to go up stairs.

"Awwwwwww!! Aren't they just so kawaii?!" whispered Umi reaching the top of the stairs.

"They are still asleep? It's almost noon…" observed Clef

"Why are they sleeping on the floor?" wondered Hikaru

"Are we going to wake them up?" asked Lantis

"I don't want to… they look so cute like that!! See Hikaru! I told you they would make the cutest couple! I am the mistress Matchmaker!! Ohohoho!" Umi whispered

"Hey Fuu! Ferio! Why are you sleeping on the floor?!" screamed Hikaru

she received a bonk in the head from Umi. The couple stirred and drowsily looked up. Ferio screamed and Fuu blushed.

"What the hell are you doing here?!" he demanded

"We came to get you guys! And don't yell at me mister! Do you know what time it is? What haven't you waken up? Were you up all night or something??" Umi yelled back then gasped

"You didn't do anything did you?!" she pointed accusingly to them

"Umi-san!" blushed Fuu

"Why were you sleeping on the floor?" Hikaru again

"Don't you see Hikaru! They weren't sleeping! They were doing something else!"

"Umi-san!! We didn't do anything!" protested Fuu

"What were they doing?" asked Hikaru again

"Ehhhh Fuu!! Didn't know you had it in you! No wonder you were still asleep! Did you get tired??" Umi elbowed Fuu in the ribs

"Tired of what?"

"Minna-san!!" blushed Fuu

"Why don't we go and get dressed so we can leave?" interrupted Ferio

Fuu nodded quickly and ran off to her room with Umi grabbing Hikaru and running after her. Ferio sighed and headed for his own room with the two guys in tow.

"Nice clothes…" noted Clef

"Shut up…"

"So did you do it?" asked Lantis

Ferio glared at him "No." he said coldly.

"Just asking…"
