Hey I'm back, again, face it, you're never going to get rid of me so quit trying. Well, here's chapter 3.
***********
Trowa walked downstairs and headed towards the kitchen. He and the other pilots never liked to eat the fancy stuff that they made at the Peacecraft Mansion and it was his turn to fix breakfast. He walked by the couch and saw Duo asleep with his arms wrapped around Mina who was also asleep with her head on his shoulder. 'I don't want to know.' he thought walking past them.
He got closer to the kitchen that the servants used, when he heard someone shuffling around in the kitchen. He pulled out his gun and slowly walked towards the kitchen. "I hope she wakes up before you know who does, she'd have a cow if she saw Mina all cuddled up with Duo." he recognized Lita's voice say.
"I know." Ami's voice said. "Hey Ames, could you give me 4 eggs, they're in the refrigerator." Lita said. Trowa put away his gun and walked into the kitchen. Ami was picking eggs out of the self in the frig and Lita was mixing something in a bowl.
"I guess I can wake them up now, but they look so cute, I wouldn't want to ruin their happiness, we all know we don't get a lot of that." Ami said and she turned around and shut the door then spotted Trowa who had, up until that moment, remained unnoticed.
"Good morning Trowa, you're up early, I hope we didn't wake you." she said walking over to Lita who had turned around. He shook his head no and Ami placed the eggs next to the bowl Lita was mixing. "Sleep well?" he simply asked and Lita turned around and went back to stirring.
"Yes, it was fine." Lita stated. Ami nodded in agreement and picked up the mug of coffee on the table where she was sitting. "Want some, I made to much." Ami said and he shook his head. "It stunts your growth." he said and Ami laughed. "I'll go wake up Duo and Mina." Ami said walking past him and out of the kitchen.
"I don't think you have a problem with that." Lita said hiding the smile that was developing on her face. "With what?" he asked sitting where Ami once was. "Stunting your growth." she said glancing back at him but he shrugged. "I'm more of a orange juice drinker." he said and she shrugged and went back to cooking.
"So, what do you guys like better, waffles or pancakes?" she asked. "Either." he said and she looked back at him. "You're not making this easier." "Well, Heero and I like waffles, Duo and Wufie like pancakes, that's the only thing they agree on and Quatre takes both." he said and she nodded. "Well, I guess I'll just make both." she said plugging the waffle iron into a power source.
"I'll help you with that." he said getting up and grabbing a bowl. "That's ok, I can handle it." she said and he smirked. "You've never cooked for Duo." he said and she laughed. "He can't be as bad as Marlene, she has a bottomless pit for a stomach."
*******
Raye sat up straight up in her bed and looked around. It took a few seconds for her memories to set in about where she was. She jumped out of bed and ran out of her room towards the nearest bathroom. She knocked into someone but quickly apologized and continued to bathroom. When she got there she looked at herself in the mirror.
Wufie looked up when someone hit him in the shoulder. "Sorry." Raye said then turned and continued walking. "Onna." he said before he noticed how pale she had looked and how distant her voice had sounded. He argued with himself if he should go see what was wrong and in the end the curious side of him won.
Raye repeatedly splashed her face with water. 'I hope that wasn't a premonition, just a bad dream.' she thought thinking back to the dream she had just woken up from. 'But it seemed to real to be just a dream.'
*Raye's dream*
"Place them in the prison." the same lady that had given Serena the portfolio with the pilots' bios, said. Suddenly guards with OZ uniforms ran out and grabbed us. "Let me go." I yelled as I struggled against the two that had me. I looked over at the rest of the girls. They were in as bad if not worse situations.
Lita punched one and he doubled over but another two grabbed her and attempted to contain her but she just struggled until another grabbed her arm and twisted it behind her back. Ami stomped on the guard who had hers foot. He immediately let her go to tend to his foot and she began to run for it but another grabbed her by the waist and slung her to the floor on her wrist and she cried out in pain.
Mina kicked a guard with her high-heeled boots and he flew into two others and she ran to help Ami and Lita but one tripped her and pulled a gun on her. Serena performed a perfect karate chop to a guards neck and he fell to his knees and fell over. Another came up and she kicked him in the side, sending him into another. She started to attack another but stopped when she realized a gun was pointed at the back of her head. Soon we were all contained and were being dragged along by the guards.
"Captain, have you fun with them now but by daybreak they will have learned what we do to traitors." was the last thing that I heard from the lady as we were pulled out of the room.
*End Raye's Dream*
Raye turned off the water and turned to leave the room but Wufie was standing at the door. "What do you want?" she said trying to walk past him but he moved into her way. "Why'd you bump into me?" he said and she stared at him. "I said I was sorry, I was just in a hurry." she said and he mumbled a few choice words that she would have snapped at if she were in the mood but she just ignored him and walked past him, bumping into him again.
*After Breakfast*
"I can't believe Marlene isn't down here yet, she loves pancakes." Lita said. Serena hadn't come down to breakfast at all.
"Yea, well she stayed up until about 12:30 last night." Mina said and Raye looked over at her. "How do you know?" she asked and Mina looked at the other two scouts who were trying not to laugh.
"I-uh-yet to the bathroom." she said looking over at Duo who winked at her. Raye noticed and told herself to ask Mina about it when she told the girls about her dream.
"Well, now that everyone's done, what are we doing today?" Mina said and Relena walked into the room. "Good morning everyone. Hey where's Marlene?" she asked. "Isn't she in her room?" Mina asked and Relena shook her head. "No, I just went in there, I thought she would be down here."
"This happens all the time, she'll turn up in a few hours." Raye said and the girls nodded in agreement. "But I wanted her to go with me to conference." Relena said. "What conference?" Ami asked.
"It's a peace conference, I think she'd like it." Relena said and the girls shrugged. "Oh well, I guess it's just me today, hey, the guys could show you guys around instead of you staying here all day, being bored. " Relena said and everyone looked around at each other.
"Aren't they supposed to be your bodyguards?" Raye asked and Relena nodded. "Yea, but I'll be fine today, besides I won't be anywhere that I'd need protecting, just go." Relena said and everyone shrugged.
Serena got back from her morning jog and plopped down on her bed. She had went down stairs at about 4 this morning and saw Mina asleep with Duo's arms wrapped around her waist. It made her upset at first but then Serena started wishing that it was her. Then at that point she decided to get out. She had been walking around for about 6 hours and was now ready to pass out and have a nice long shower.
After her shower Serena decided to go see where everyone was. She slid into a pair of dark green cargo shorts and a white wife beater and walked downstairs. The door to the patio was open and she could hear laughter and splashes coming from outside so she walked out.
Mina screamed and Serena laughed. Mina was being dunked by Duo and Lita was on the side laughing and Trowa had a trace of a smirk on his face. "Hey Marlene, where have you been?" Ami asked looking back at her. She was on the side of the pool reading a book and Quatre was sitting next to her reading over her shoulder.
"I just went on a walk, I needed to think." Serena said and Ami nodded. She looked around and noticed Heero was laying on a lawn chair and two hot heads were missing. "Hey, where's Wufie and Raye?" she asked and Mina laughed pulling some of her hair out of her face.
"They got in another fight and are battling it out in a training room." she said and Serena sighed shaking her head in shame.
*In the training room*
"You're going down you egotistical pig." Raye said wiping the sweat from her forehead. She crouched down in an attack position and Wufie did the same.
"That's what you've said for the past 30 minutes and you still haven't gotten me down you weak onna." he said back making Raye fume with anger. "That's it." she said running at him and kicking at his stomach but he jumped out of the way.
He then did a roundhouse kick which she jumped over and tripped him instead. He fell to the ground and grunted. "1." she said crossing her arms and he jumped up. "Lucky shot." he said and she smirked. "That wasn't luck."
He crouched down again and this time attacked her first. She blocked most of his hits and the ones that did hit, did very little damage. "You're getting tired." he said noticing her breath was quickening. "Really, I couldn't tell, but you are too." she said.
"Well, then, I should end this quickly." he said and he kicked her in the back of the knee. She cried out and fell on her back and he jumped down on her so she couldn't get up.
"You give up yet?" he asked and she smirked. "I never give up a mission." she said and he shrugged. "Have it your way." he said not moving. "This isn't Burger King." she said rolling over so she was on him. (AN: I don't own that either.)
"Now, do you give up?" she asked sitting on his stomach and pinning his shoulders down. "Nope." he said sitting up quickly and she fell back so was sitting on his legs and looking straight at him. His eyes softened a bit as they gazed into each other's eyes and she felt a blush come across her face.
"You know I had you right?" he said and she snapped out of her dazed state. "Yea right wonderboy, I had you." she said poking him in the chest and he smirked. "Wonderboy?" he said and she laughed. "Yea, look who's sitting on top of who." she said and he smirked. "I know." he said.
"Whatever." she said hiding her blush as she pushed him so she could stand up but he grabbed her hand and pulled her back down on him. "Don't leave." he said and she smiled.
"Afraid you'd miss me?" she said smartly and he laughed then looked Raye in her eyes. "You're so much like her." he said and Raye looked at him confused.
"Who?" she asked. "Nataku, she's my ex-wife." he said and Raye looked at him. 'Isn't that what his gundam is called? Wait, ex-wife?'
"You're ex-WIFE?" she asked and he nodded. "Arranged marriage." he said answering her question. "Oh, well were is she now? If I broke an arranged marriage in my family I would've been 'dishonored for life' in my grandpa's words." she said imitating her grandpa's voice and he laughed then looked at her again.
"No, she fought in the war and was killed." he said and Raye stopped laughing. 'Great I remind him of his dead ex-wife.' she thought. She tilted her head to try to look past his eyes that had become hard again.
'I wonder if he loved her?' she thought staring at the 'Solitary Dragon'. He got a distant look on his face then looked back at Raye. "You're just as stubborn as her." he said and she laughed.
"Thank you, did she kick your ass too?" she asked and he smirked. "I never said that you kicked my ass." he said and she stood up and offered her hand down to him. "Yet. Care for another go?" she asked and he took her hand and pulled himself up.
"Sure." he said walking over to her and grabbing her hands. He wrapped her arms around his neck then his hands wrapped around her waist. Raye looked at him slightly confused but another part of her was enjoying being this close to him. 'He's so cute.' she thought locking eyes with him.
She closed her eyes as he leaned in and kissed her lightly on the lips. She got butterflies in her stomach but ignored them as she kissed him back. 'Why does this feel so right?' she questioned herself.
Wufie wanted to kick himself, hard. Not that he didn't want to kiss her, he wanted to do that, a lot, and the fact that she wasn't pushing away and was actually kissing back made him want to do flips which was what his stomach was doing. But he was falling for her. He had promised himself after Merrian (AN: Is that her name?) died that he wouldn't get close to anyone else but ever since Raye had gotten there he found himself breaking that promise.
That's it for now, yea, I know terribly mushy but I couldn't help it ok. Well please review and let me know what you think ok? See ya next chapter or fic, or whatever. Peaces.
