Chapter Four: Dreams

It was a stormy night and Bit was laying on his bed looking up at the ceiling. He couldn't seem to get to sleep. All he could think of was Leena. Leena as a Zoid pilot, Leena playing chess, Leena watching TV, Leena as his wife…. "Woh!" He thought. Maybe this is getting out of hand. "Maybe I should tell someone".

Bit continued to lie in bed looking up at the ceiling.

The next morning the rain had died down, but it was still drizzling. The team was confined inside the base yet again with nothing to do.

The Doc was playing with his models, Jamie was developing new tactics for battles, Leena was reading a magazine and Brad was watching the TV.

"hmmm", Bit thought "maybe I should ask Brad for Advice"

Bit sat down next to Brad who seemed to be watching some sort of Zoid documentary.

"Umm, Brad" said Bit

"Yeah Bit?" Replied Brad

"I, umm, need some advice."

"shoot"

"Girl advice"

"Oh... Hold on." Brad sat upright and looked at Bit.

"What do you want to know?"

"well, um there's this girl I like see and I don't know if she likes me back. What should I do?"

"well it depends on who the girl is. I mean what their like and all. So if you just met them than you might want to get to know them a little better before you tell them. On the other hand, if you've know them a while than you'll have to pluck up the courage to tell her how you feel."

"I see" responded Bit to this advice.

"Sooo?" asked Brad

"So what?" said Bit

"who's the lucky girl of course?"

"I'm not telling you you'll just laugh at me!"

"Come on, Would I do that to you?"

"Yes you would!"

"all right, I promise I wont laugh. Cross my heart."

"well all right. Its… its umm…" Bit swallowed and took a deep breath. "Leena."

Brad Stared at bit with an expression of shock on his face.

"L, L, Leena? Are you kidding"

"I shouldn't have told you."

"No, no. It's just, I wouldn't have guessed it. That's all. Your telling the truth aren't you? Ohhh how sweet. You'd make a great couple."

"You think so?" Asked Bit Hopefully.

"Sure you would. Now if your going to ask her don't listen to anyone else but your heart. Do what it wants to do. And hopefully she'll feel the same way about you."

"Thanks Brad that was a lot of help" Bit said as he got up and wandered in the direction of the kitchen.
