Chapter Five: Wishing

It was a clear night. The moon was out and an infinite amount of stars could be seen. Bit and Leena were lying on the beach together, looking up at the stars.

"Bit" Leena said.

"Yes Leena" asked bit looking into her eyes.

"I love you"

"I love you too Leena" replied Bit as he put his arm around her.

Leena rested her head on Bits chest. Tonight was perfect, she didn't want this moment to end. Bit leaned down and kissed the top of Leena's head. Leena turned her head and looked into bit's deep green eyes. He was so handsome she couldn't believe she hadn't told him sooner. Bit leaned down to kiss Leena again. His lips about to touch hers.

"This is it" Leena thought "our first real kiss."

His lips brushed hers when… Beep…Beep…Beep... Her clock, which showed 7:00 went off waking her out of her slumber.

"It was all… a dream" Leena asked herself "It felt so real."

Leena pondered on this for a moment.

"Are these my real feelings for Bit? There's only one way to find out, I'll have to ask someone."

Leena decided to ask the only person she would feel comfortable talking to. Her Father.

The Doc was in the control room with Jamie discussing a battle plan for the next big match.

"So if we were to come from here and strike from behind than we should be able to take them out." Jamie said to the Doc.

"I see..." replied the doc not really understanding it.

"Ummm, dad?" asked Leena.

"Yes honey" said the Doc

"yeah, could I talk to you?"

Sure thing. You know you can always talk to me."

"Uhh, in private?"

"Oh... Ok."

Leena and the Doc left Jamie in the control centre finishing his battle plan. On the way to Leena's room they passed bit in the corridor. As he walked passed Leena started to blush and she noticed that Bit seemed to be blushing as well. But he looked sweaty so Leena just assumed that he was probably working on his Zoid or something and was just hot.

Leena and her father entered her room. As her father came in she proceeded to close the door.

"Sooo…what did you want to talk about?" asked the Doc

"Well, umm, boys" replied Leena.

"Oh, I see. Is it about time I had that little talk with you?"

"What? No...oh god NO!" yelled Leena, a little shocked "it's just that I like this guy and I don't know if he feels the same way I do. What should I do?"

"Well, you could just ask him, but that could have varied results. You could hang around him a bit and see if he gives off any little hints."

Leena started to blush as she heard the word "Bit".

"Or, you could write him a letter telling him how you feel and see what his response is."

"hmm, ok thanks for your help."

"wait!" yelled the Doc, a bit surprised. " aren't you going to tell me who this young man is?"

"Why do you want to know?"

"I'm your father. I have a right to know these things."

"well, ok I'll tell you. It's Bit."

"Oh, well that's no surprise."

"What?! How'd you know?"

"You're my daughter, I have a sixth sense for these things. You changed ever since Bit came to our team. Only minutely, but enough for a father to notice."

"Oh, well... do you know if he likes me back?"

"no, I can't say I do... but if I find out, I'll tell you right away."

"Thanks dad, this was a lot of help."

"That's all right." Said the doc as he left Leena's room.
