Kit: *is still staring at Hilde* Hmm?

Duo: I'm needed for a mission... but I don't want to leave you here alone so... *his face brightens* I know! Hilde can stay here with you... she can tell you all kinds of embarrassing stories about me.... all right with you Hilde? *

Hilde: *shrugs "Whatever"*

Kit: *doesn't hide her disgust at the thought of Hilde staying with her, then looks to him* How long will you be?!

Duo: *shrugs* A couple days at most...

Kit: *frowns* okay

Duo: *goes to Kit and kisses her* I promise I won't take any longer than necessary... *turns to Hilde* Later Kiddo! *leaves*

Hilde: *mutters to herself* Kiddo... hah! I'm only a couple years younger than him...

Kit: *smiles after him* Bye! *turns her back to the closed door and sits sulking on the couch*

Hilde: *looks at Kit* You're Duo's newest Girlfriend?

Kit: *shrugs* Yeah *then turns to her * Newest?!

Hilde: Well yeah... I'm sure Duo's told you he's a *laughs* "ladies man"...

Shanell Maxwell: *shrugs and stares at the carpet* Yeah...so what's your point?

Hilde: I was just asking... geez... I don't know why you don't like me... I haven't been rude... I just met you a few hours ago!

Kit: *mutters something under her breath*

Hilde: Seriously... why do you dislike me?

Kit: *stands and walks past her, sitting at the table, purposely putting the straw of her drink in her mouth so she didnt have to speak*

Hilde: *sighs and stares at her* *quietly* Duo and I have never been romantic... you have no reason to be jealous... he's like the older brother I've never had or wanted... actually... do you think you can keep a secret?

Kit: *takes the straw from her lips* Do you think I can?

Hilde: *shrugs* Well... I'm sure you noticed Duo and I look somewhat alike... we have the same complexion and the same eye color... well... neither of us know who our real family is... I got some of his blood and took it to a clinic to be compared with mine and... we're... related... Duo doesn't know though...

Kit: *shrugs* For a minute I thought you were his kid *laughs at the absurdity of the thought, then puts the straw back in her mouth*

Hilde: *laughing* That would mean he'd have had me when he was 2!

Kit: *shrugs and decides it wouldn't hurt to talk with her* Well, it was just for a second I thought that...

Hilde: *grins* No I think I'm his sister or cousin maybe

Kit: *nods* Possibly....

Hilde: So how'd ya meet Duo?

Kit: *laughs* Well, he ran me over as I came out of the mall!

Hilde: *shakes her head* That is so like Duo... he never pays attention to anything...

Kit: Then Oz came *her face darkens* I suppose you know nothing of why I am actually with him?

Hilde: Nope and I've learned not to ask too many questions...by the way, I like what you've done to the place... I just assume it's you that cleaned... I don't think Duo's touched a duster or broom in his life...

Kit: *laughs* Yes, it's a good thing I brought one with me, don't ask why...

Hilde: I wont... *gets up and looks in the fridge* Ech! I think there's something alive in there... *shuts the door quickly, laughing* *goes to the cupboard and takes out a stale bag of chips* Errrr...

Kit: *smiles* I didn't get to that part yet.....I advise to not eat anything in there

Hilde: *looks in the chip bag and realizes they're moldy* Ewww... I guess I'd better go shopping... Duo always leaves me money to shop for him... he says if I buy him groceries I can stay in his apartment when he's not here... whenever I stay, I clean but then he gets back and within a day its an absolute mess... As you could see before it's been awhile since I've stayed here...

Kiy: *nods* I see.... I could tell, the dust was about an inch thick!

Hilde: I guess I'll go shopping tomorrow... *yawns* I'll take the couch... *goes and throws herself on the couch in a Duo like manner*

Kit: *smiles* You sleep this early?! *Shrugs* Suit yourself, I'll just clean a bit more....

Hilde: *blinks* Early? It's 11 at night... I guess that's early... but I get up at 5 in the morning to run my shop...

Kit: *looks to her watch, surprised* Oh my! I didn't realize the time! *giggles and flings herself onto Duos bed, bouncing a few times* I guess I can clean in the morning.

Hilde: *yells from the living room* GOOD NIGHT!

Kit: *yells back* Night!

Duo: *later at about 4 am, comes into his room via the fire escape and silently creeps through the room* *whispers* Kit wake up... I got back earlier than I thought...

Kit: *wakes up and like usual doesn't realize where she is* No! Not my family! Huh? Oh, Duo, you're back....

Duo: *nods* And see there's a little problem...

Kit: *rubs her eyes sleepily* What is that? *Yawn*

Duo: Hilde's sleeping on the couch...

Kit: *is still half asleep and doesn't comprehend anything yet* How's that a problem?

Duo: Well... where am I supposed to sleep?

Kit: *blinks slowly and falls over asleep, but mutters something like "sleep here then"*

Duo: * pulls off his shoes and his coat, keeping his pants and shirt, does the same thing she did, throws himself on the bed and jumps up and down a couple of times like a kid*

Kit: *sleepily opens her eyes, looking at him, then is instantly asleep again* *the next morning she wakes up to find a snoring Duo with his hair down lying half off the bed* *opens her eyes and scoots backwards, not remembering last night* Aaah! What are you doing here!??!?!

Duo: *rolls over and falls off the bed* *looking around bleary eyed* Huh? Wha? *Falls asleep again with just his head on the bed*

Kit: *pokes him in the head* How the hell did you get in here?!

Duo: *looks up* Don't you remember? I got back early and you told me to sleep in here... *opens his eyes wider* AHHHHH!!! MY HAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'LL HAVE TO BRUSH OUT ALL THOSE HORRIBLE TANGLES! I... don't... remember... taking my hair down...

Kit: *looks kinda horror stricken* I don't even remember you coming in here!

Duo: *is still staring at his hair whimpering* Noooo...

Kit: *suddenly looks scared and scrambles off the bed running into the living room*

Duo: *looks to the clock,10 am, so they're alone* *follows Kit into the living room* What's your problem?! Do you honestly think I would... THAT'S INDECENT! IM NOT THAT KIND OF PERSON! Besides! I'm still dressed!

Kit: *looks at him* Well I know that, but I can still worry can't I!?!?!

Duo: *shakes his head and says sadly* I thought you trusted me more than that... *goes into his bedroom and slams the door. She can hear painful yelps as he tries to comb out his hair*

Kit: *feels stupid for doing that, but she felt she still had founded worries* I'm sorry,. *walks out side the apartment door for a moment and looks around*

Duo: *comes out of his room 20 minutes later after a shower his hair freshly braided and wearing blue jeans and a black t-shirt that says "I hear Voices and they don't like you"*

Kit: *is still standing outside the door, looking down at all the people and buildings* It's so peaceful here

Duo: *comes up behind her and says quietly* Sorry I yelled at you...

Kit: *jumps and turns around* Ah! Don't do that! *Looks at him* No, its ok, just forget it....

Duo: *grins and goes back into the apartment*

Kit: *sighs and leans against the wall, looking at the people walking by on the street*
