Shadowwolf: Well, it looks like Brad told a fib.
Brad: When was that?
Shadowwolf: *falls over Anime style* You mean you don't remember?
Brad: What, should I?
Shadowwolf: I would think so. You told the nurse you were Naomi's boyfriend, remember?
Brad: I DID WHAT?! *passes out*
Shadowwolf: What is up with Brad? He's been passing out a lot lately. I'm starting to worry about long-term brain damage. *sigh* Oh well. Thanks for your reviews everyone. This chapter /might/ get a little more confusing than the last one, but what the Heck? Maybe Brad and Naomi will kiss…
Brad: *wakes up* O_o Really?
Shadowwolf: Really, really.
Brad: *passes out*
Shadowwolf: I was just kidding. (^_-)
Bit: HAHAHAHAHA!
Naomi: *walks in* Is Brad alright?
Shadowwolf: If brain damage is "alright", he's fine.
Naomi: I won't even ask.
Shadowwolf: Could you read the disclaimer for me?
Naomi: Yeah, sure. Shadowwolf does NOT own Zoids, or the characters. Don't sue.
Shadowwolf: Please enjoy and review! On to the story!
HUNTER'S PREY CH 5,
GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAITThe nurse opened the door to Naomi's room. She poked her head in.
"Naomi?" She whispered. Naomi opened one eye and yawned.
"Yeah," her voice was weak. The nurse walked in.
"This young man claims to be your boyfriend." That was Brad's cue. He walked in and stood next to the nurse. Naomi's eyes met his and he smiled. "Is he?" The nurse asked impatiently.
"Yes," Naomi said while jumping for joy inside. They nurse walked out the door and closed it behind her.
"Hi," the word barely escaped his mouth. Naomi pushed a button on her bed that propped her up.
"Hi," she replied as he walked over to her. There was an awkward silence as they looked at each other, as though it was the first time.
"Are you in pain?" Brad broke the silence.
"Not much anymore. I'm loaded with painkillers. So, boyfriend?"
"Yeah, bad lie, I know." Brad tried to look down at his feet, but his eyes wouldn't leave Naomi.
"I wouldn't say that." She motioned for Brad to come closer. "I can't think of a better one…" She trailed off as they leaned towards each other, as though they were magnetically attracted. As their lips touched, Naomi thought of pulling away, in case someone came in, but it felt too good. There was a knock on the door. What had been one minute, had seemed like one second. They quickly, but reluctantly, pulled apart and Brad stepped away from the bed.
"Come in," Naomi said weakly, not from injuries, but from love. Bit and Leena walked in first.
"So, are you doing okay?" Bit asked thoughtfully. Leena smiled.
"I'm okay," she said, deeply wanting them to leave. Jamie and Doc walked in next.
"We're really sorry about this," Doc said as he examined Brad. His hair was messed up. Doc just smiled, remembering his deepest crush…
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After many hints from Brad to leave, which had no effect, and an hour, they finally left to go back to the Hovercargo. Brad didn't want to leave. As a nurse walked by he grabbed her attention.
"Could I stay, just this night?" He asked. The nurse was tired and ready to go home.
"I don't think so," she started. At the moment, Naomi was the only thing that mattered to Brad.
"Please," he begged, even though it was not his style.
"Sure," she said, "normally we don't allow it, but what the Heck?"
Brad: ………………………………………………………….*sigh*
Shadowwolf: Okay…then. Short, I know, but I want to give you time to think.
Bit: Liar, you're just lazy.
Shadowwolf: Shut up! Well, I am kind of lazy too.
Bit: *fake cough*
Shadowwolf: *evil glare* Leave me alone! I'm tired and I'm running out of good ideas at the moment. I'm just glad he finally kissed her.
Naomi: Hi everyone. Hi Brad.
Brad: ………………*wakes up* Huh? *looks over at Naomi, passes out again*
Shadowwolf: Next chapter coming soon, I hope. Please review! Thanks! ^ ^
