Here we go, here go again!!
Wild Raspberries Ch 2
"It's not her fault." Lady Une said over the vide phone. "It's this heat."
Wufei sat in the dark office on the other end of the line. He shifted in his chair and leaned back with a sigh. The air conditioner hummed at full blast but it provided little relief. His head tilted back and he started to count the tiles on the ceiling.
"Yes I know, but it's hard to get work done when your partner can can't work." her answered without looking back. His mind went back to last week when Sally had another migraine, and the week before that, and the day before that. A few weeks ago she had one almost every other day, but now they have lessened in numbers, they seam to have increased in pain where she was sick, and could hardly move. If she was not able to do her work then he would have to and that often ended up in very late nights which he didn't like.
"Take her away."
"What?" Wufei bolted back int his chair.
"Take Sally some place cooler. This southern weather is what's making her so sick, she needs to be someplace a little cooler. Take her and head up north for a few days that will make her feel better! She needs a vacation." Une began to type on the computer next to her.
"Why do I have to take her? Get Noin or Duo to go with her, I still got work to do."
"She's your partner Wufei you have to take care of her."
"Sense when did I suddenly become baby sitter for that onna?!?! I agreed to work with her when she asked me a year ago, I never agreed to be her chaperon!.."
"Wufei!" Lady Une turned on him, her eyes glaring. "That is quite enough! Your comments are rude and out of place." she turned to face him, " You and Sally are partners and partners help each other out when needed. You and Sally are going to go on a five day trip starting tomorrow Understood?"
He sighed in defeat. He knew better then to keep arguing because Lady une some how always got what she wanted. "Understood."
Une nodded and the screen went black. He sat there watching it hoping she would come back and change her mind but after an hour he sadly accepted the fact she wasn't. He rose from his chair and looked at the plie of papers still untouched on Sally's desk. They would have to wait till they got back. He walked to the half closed door and peeked in. The room was motionless. The slight sound of someone breathing could be heard in the dark. Wufei walked in and stood beside the cot where she sleep. One hand under the pillow the other under her head, Sally looked like a sleeping child. He eased himself down next to her. The movement of the cot brought her back.
"Feel better?" he asked. Sally's head felt light and fuzzy but no pain. She inhaled and exhaled the cool breezes from the window.
"What time is it?" she asked softly.
"Eight."
She cringed. There went another day!
"Dam..."
"We have orders." he stood and moved to the window. He leaned his elbows on the sill and opened the window further. Sally watched him and she propped herself up on her arms. He was being to quite, but before she could ask anything further her stomach made a very loud and long grumble. He looked back at her with a raised eye brow.

hehehhehee!! I just love leaving people hanging ~_^
