Party Hardy (3 of 3)

Later that night, Kim woke up and looked around the room. The effects of the "Juice" was wearing off and giving her a major headache. She was still half cut though. She looked at the floor where a she saw a mound next to the bed. She poked at it with a pencil.

"Wakie Wakie." she giggled.

Heero poked his head out from in under the sheets and pushed the pencil away. He rolled over and mumbled,

"Go away...leave me alone....."

"Fine then...I will."

With that, Kim stumbled out of the room and out of the apartment. She walked down the stairs towards the elevator. On the second step, she tripped up in the bottom of Heero's robe and stumbled down the flight of stairs. A loud thump and a whiny Ouch was heard by Heero. He got up and shook his head as he went to retrieve the dazed girl. He saw her sitting at the bottom of the stairs with her hand on her head.

"Man...I feel some handicapped. Remind me to never drink again." she mumbled to Heero.

He picked her up and put his arm around her to steady her. As he helped her to climb the stairs he rolled his eyes and said,

"I can't believe this is happening."

He picked her up and put her in the bed. He got in with her this time so he could keep a better eye on her. She fell asleep as soon as she laid down. She turned in the bed and held onto Heero in a death grip. He tried to get away but there was no possible escape. He sighed helplessly and gave in. He soon fell into a restless sleep.

Steph shivered and looked to the door of Quatre's room. She Smiled evilly, wrapped herself in a balnket and walked over to it. Knocking gently, she whispered.

"Quatre....I'm cold."

'Shut up and get back in bed." He replied, not realizing what he was saying. Steph just shrugged and crawled in with him. She cuddled up to him and quickly fell asleep. She rolled over and sprawled over him.

Ashley woke up the next morning to the sound of song birds. Her eyes fluttered open and she looked around the room, dazed and confused. The thoughts of the phone call the night before, finding Duo's room with the teddy bear and the picture of his sister. It all came back to her like it was all a dream.

She sat up in bed and noticed a red bandana that hung from the bed post. She picked it up into her hand to study it before putting it on. She looked across the room and smiled at her reflection in the mirror.

She swung her legs out and over the bed. Then she found Duo dead to the world on the floor. With a devilish grin, Ashley snuck over and bent down to get at his braid that laid on his chest. She held the braid in her hand and watched Duo breath in and out before sticking the ends of the braid up his noise.

Duo twitched and Ashley stopped. Her hands stood still as she waited for him to settle down. Then she began to stuff more and more of his hair up his nose.

"Man...he sleeps like a rock." she murmured in amazement.

Duo twitched violently and he jumped up, startled. His eyes narrowed when he saw Ashley as she fell back onto the floor. She laughed at Duo and then took off out the door.

"Come back here!!!!! I'm not finished with you!!!" she heard Duo yell.
"NOW I HAVE TO WASH MY HAIR!!!!!!." he whined.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Steph stirred and opened her eyes. She saw Quatre and jumped up.

"AHHHHHHH!!!!! What am I doing here!!" she shouted as she fell out of the bed and onto the hard floor. She then held her stomach. A bruise had formed around her belly button. She rolled her eyes as it came to her WHAT had actually happened last night.

"Wha...?" Quatre sat up and looked at Staph. He too jumped up surprised. He then blushed when he recalled the night before.

Steph hurriedly got up and went out to the kitchen to find something for the pain.

"Be right back." she winked at Quatre.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kim and Heero were wakened by Steph's and Ashley's yelling and laughing. She sat up and held her head in her hand as she winced in pain. She had a horrible headache. Heero turned around and looked at her. She blushed when she realized that Heero was in the bed with her.

"You feel better?"

"Yah. If you don't count the headache and slight nauseating pain in my stomach." she complained.

" Lets go out on the balcony, some fresh air might be good for you."

"Sure." she agreed and lazily stood up.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Steph walked out into the kitchen where Ashley had started baking cookies.

"What's wrong with you?" she asked.

Steph pulled up her shirt to show Ashley the bruise.

"Quatre's a blond...think about it." Steph groaned.

Ashley screwed up her face and looked at Steph confused. Then it came to her.

"OH!!!!! Oh man...he never." Ashley said as she tried not to laugh.

Steph nodded as she swallowed a couple pills and then she and Ashley went out to the living room for a few minutes. Steph took some extra pills for Quatre because he too had a headache.

At that moment, they spotted Kim and Heero walking to the balcony doors. Heero had scratches, cuts and bruises all over him from Kim's death grip. His hair was all messed up, more than usual, and his pants were unzipped.
Steph, Ashley and now Duo and Trowa stood and blinked, not believing what they were seeing.

"What?" Heero asked a bit annoyed. "She just fell down the stairs so I put her in the bed with me so I could keep an eye on her."

"Yah, what he said." she said dazed.

"Sure." Steph and Ashley said sarcastically before sitting down to watch TV.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ashley was in the kitchen yet again, tending to her cookies. They were almost finished when the phone rang. She threw the spatula at the phone and sighed.

"Damn it!! Yah yah, I'm coming."

She slowly made her way to the phone and picked it up.

"Yah. Wadda ya want?!" she said in an irritated tone.

"Um..............." a girl hesitated.

"Well?" Ashley asked and began to tap her foot.

"Is this Heero's place."

"Yah. Why."

"Oh! Yippie! Where is he."

"On the balcony with Kim."

"Oh." the other girl said in a dissatisfied voice.

"Who ARE you?"

"Oh sorry. I'm Relena Peacecraft."

"Come again."

"Rele...."

"I heard you the first time."

" We need directions to the place. Can you help us?" Relena asked.

"Sure. Apartment B on Guy street, off of Main street."

"Thanks." she said.
"Oh, one more thing. Have you ever piloted anything?"

"I can drive my mom's van. What's this all about anyway."

"You're good enough. You'll be one of the new Gundam piolets. You piolet....I'll tell you when we get there."

"Ok. But there is one more thing. Do you like like Heero?"

"Yah. Kinda."

"Perfect." Ashley replied.
"Well, I gotta go. See you soon."

Ashley hung up the receiver. She couldn't wait for Miss Relena Peacecraft to cross paths with dear old Kimmy. She knew Kim had the biggest crush on Heero and she could probably kick Relena all around town. She chuckled and went back to her cookies.

They were finished a few moments later. Duo and Trowa decided to sneak in and grab a few. Ashley placed the cookies in the windowsill to cool. Duo and Trowa looked comical as they tried not to attract Ashley's attention. Just when they picked one up, a metal spatula came down hard on their hands producing a loud smack. They jumped back and held their hurting hands on which a red imprint of the spatula was forming.

"That's what you get for being Mr. Pick Fingers...." she said as she scowled them and waved the spatula at them.

They kissed their hands in an attempt to make it all better.

"Don't go getting anymore bright ideas." she warned.

They slunk out of the kitchen and leaned on the wall. The pain was beginning to subside in their hands by now.

"...Women...who understands them anyway?" Trowa said as he glared at Ashley inside the kitchen.

Duo looked to Trowa and shrugged.

"I dunno.....I don't care either. They're nothing but trouble. I don't want one, they're...bitchy."

"I heard that Duo Maxwell!!!" Ashley yelled out and slammed the kitchen door.
