Note: Ok, to answer someone's question, this is a B/L fic. Thanks for all
the reviews!!!!!!! I can't believe I got so many in such a short amount of
time! Thank you DarkFocus for the idea to have Bit go talk to someone about
Leena! I'm using it, but changing it around a little… oh and '' denote
thoughts, and "" denote speech.
I know that this may not be the best, but I'm working my way through a really severe writers block!

Chapter 2: Advice
"Naomi?" Leena asked.
"Yah Leena?"
"I need some advice."
The woman patted the couch beside her. "Sure. Come on over. Sit down." Leena sat. "So, what do you need help with?"
"Well, um, you know a lot about guys, don't you?"
Naomi shrugged. "Oh, I know something. Brad's still teaching me." (Oh, by the way, Naomi and Brad are engaged and Naomi is living with him and the Blitz team) "Why? Guy trouble?"
"Well what should you do if a guy tells you he loves you and you like him too but you're too afraid to tell him so you say a bunch of stuff to protect yourself but you say all the wrong things and…*deep breath*…you really hurt him and he runs away crying?"
Naomi stared blankly at Leena. "Excuse me?"
Leena took a deep breath and began to repeat the whole thing over. "Well, what if…"
"Don't, please don't." Naomi said. "Maybe you should give me some specifics."
"Like what?"
"What did you say to him?"
"I said 'I could never love someone like you' and I said that I didn't believe him and I slapped him."
"Ooh, ouch. Not a good situation."
"So, what should I do?"
"Well, who was it?"
"Why do you have to know?"
"Well, every guy is different, so like if it was…say…Harry, then you could probably just go up to him and apologize, and every thing would be okay. But if it was…say…Jamie, then you would have to go further then an apology, because he's much … shall we say…deeper then Harry. What I'm saying is some guys bruise easily, and some don't. Some are more sensitive to things like that then others.
"I guess that makes sense."
"So, who was it?"
"It was…Bit."
Naomi sat quiet for a minute, then chuckled. "I always could see sparks between you two."
"Will you cut that out and tell me what I'm supposed to do?" Leena yelled.
"Fine, fine. No need to get all touchy. Well, as far as I can see, you're in a pretty sticky situation. I don't know much about Bit. I know he's very proud. By saying what you did, you definitely seriously hurt his pride. I don't think he's very sensitve, so you must have really hurt him by making him cry. I think the best thing to do is to apologize and tell him how you feel, then tell him why you told him otherwise. If you just apologize, then he'll still carry the wounds you dealt him, and they might eventually kill him someday."
Leena sighed. She knew that Naomi was right. She would have to tell him. She nodded. "Thanks." Then she stood and left.
'Poor kids.' Naomi thought to herself. 'I hope everything turns out ok.'
******************
Bit needed advice too.
"Hey, Brad?"
"Hmm?" The man looked up from his book.
"I need some advice."
"Sure. Just don't ask me anything about Shakespeare. I know nothing." He threw down the book, which was Romeo and Juliet, given to him by Naomi a week ago.
"Why would I need advice about Shakespeare?"
"That isn't the point. Now, what's your problem?"
"I have girl trouble."
"Spill."
Bit took a deep breath. "What should I do if there's this girl I'm in love with and I tell her that I love her but then she slaps me and says that she's in love with someone else and she really hurts me?"
Brad blinked. "Excuse me?"
"Is that all you have to say? I tell you my problem, hoping for good advice, and all you have to say is EXCUSE ME?" Bit yelled.
"Okay, okay, sorry. What exactly did she say to you?"
"Well, she said she was in love with someone else, and she slapped me, and she said 'I could never love someone like you!'"
"Ooh, ouch."
"So? What do I do?"
"Get over it."
"Huh?"
"Get over it. Get on with your life. Forget about this girl. Obviously, she doesn't like you, and that's her problem. Not yours. There are other fish in the sea. Find someone else."
"Umm, thanks, I guess."
"Anytime."
******************
As Bit walked out of the room, he thought about what Brad had said. He was right. Leena would have to be forgotten, if he was ever going to have any peace of mind. But that couldn't happen while he was still here. He smiled to himself. He knew what he had to do.
