"Bit, I was wondering, I just lost a dozen fresh cookies today, and well, since no one else eats cookies, maybe, well, YOU'RE THE ONE THAT TOOK IT??" Leena glared, and gave Bit her best evil eye glare.

"Hee hee, well, about that. it's a pretty funny story.haha." Bit smiled sheepishly and put a hand behind his head. "Anyways, Leena, I have something to tell you." Bit tried to swallow the lump of nervousness sitting on his throat.

"What is it? And you better not try to sneak out on getting in trouble mister," Leena said, a finger shaking in Bit's face.

"Don't worry about it," Bit said, and continued. "What I mean to say, is that, over the years that we have been a team, well, I have developed feelings for you."

"What kind of feelings Bit?" Leena asked, hoping it was what she thought it was.

"They're good feelings," Bit said, before turning a fiery red.

"Oh, I see," was all that was uttered from Leena's mouth.

"Well, aren't you going to say something?" Bit said, sweat-dropping like crazy.

"To cut a long story short, Bit, I like you too, on the first day I saw you," Leena replied, shyly, which surprised Bit because she was usually so energetic and self-assured.

"Whoa," Bit said, startled. "Really?"

"Why, don't you like me back" Leena said, getting more and more nervous around the blonde haired boy. "On second thought," She said, backing away from Bit as he tried to answer, "I need to go to my room! Be back laters!" She ran off, leaving a befuddled Bit looking after her.

~~~At Leena's room~~~

Bit sat down on Leena's bed, next to her. "What are you so nervous about?" Bit asked as he looked over at Leena.

"Huh? Oh, nothing," Leena responded, shrugging her shoulders. Munching on a cookie, she added, "Sugar deficiency."

"So, you want to catch a movie this weekend?"

"Only if I can pencil you in," Leena said, and smiled.

"All right then, see you later then," Bit stood up, clicked his tongue (In a SEXY way!), pointed at Leena, and left the room. Leena sighed happily, and flopped on her bed, daydreaming about Bit all day long. @__@ Author's note: WHEEE~~~~!!! ^_^

*~*~ At ZBC's party*~*~

"Wow, which game are you going to go on first?" Jamie said, wide-eyed with excitement.

"I don't know, but I know what kinds I'm going on," Brad said, looking around the party/carnival.

"Oh, like the ones where you can win money?" Bit said sarcastically, with his arm around Leena's shoulders.

"Hey, how did you know?" Brad responded, looking at the new couple.

"How should we not?" Leena retorted, and off the team went, each to their separate ways. Doc looking at new edition Zoid models, Jamie looking at pricey game plans, Brad signing on every game where you can win money, and Bit with Leena, strolling on the fairgrounds, each enjoying the other's attention and essence.

Riri Chan lifted her sunglasses, pitch black with a thin trim around it. Epps looked around, sniffing in the new scent of the carnival; Riri wore a long black cloak/blazer that half-covered her dark blue denim cargo pants; her dark magenta high heels gleaming out from under her. Riri Chan always wore high heels; they were her signature mark that she, only she, was Riri Chan. No one else. Riri Chan thought about signing up for the races and competition matches; that was an excellent way for others to recognize the great Zoid fighter and for her to see how good her rivalry was. Grimacing at the other lower fighters (some of which were not even good enough to play one-on-one with the amateurs), Riri made her way over to the tables (where Brad was) to begin signing up. Epps crouched around Riri's cloak, confused at the many people in one place. He didn't like this. Not one bit.
