Try to remember chapter 3
The search for a shower
By Mel
I wrote this on a day where we were having a bunch of earthquakes. My parents panicked making a lot of noise, not letting me sleep (on a Sunday of all days) so I started writing for my fan yes, sigh I only have one fan. Thank you AngelWingsOfALion for your review. Starts sobbing I love you.
Ok, that's enough of that whole emotions thing.
Now, on with my crappy story
I woke up around nine or so with a smile on my face. I rolled over to give Siefer a 'good morning' kiss (yes I know morning breath is a tool of the devil that sometimes even love can't overcome, and it sucks to wake up to) When I turned, I got a little surprise. Instead of my beloved sleeping there, I was face to face with a moogle doll. There was a note perched on its hands. It read:
My dearest Selphie,
I didn't want to let go of you this morning but I promised matron
that I'd help her with something for this evening today. Take your time getting dressed.
You don't absolutely need to be at Matron's house until later.
All of my love,
Siefer
PS don't tell anyone anything.
I got out of bed and opened my suitcase. I would have assumed mine was the one with the flowers on it, but that one was already open and had men's clothes in it. So I borrowed a pair of boxers (who'd have thought Siefer and I had the same size waist???) and a t-shirt to wear on my way to the shower. I pulled out a black dress from the navy colored suitcase. I almost flew out of the room but I stopped mid-stride.
"Oh yeah, pretty making things."
I turned around and dug through my bag. I found a flowered case with toiletries inside.
Time to go looking for the shower. I went down the stairs and opened the only door I saw. Inside was a petite woman (my sized) with shoulder length silver hair in a blue dress and black knee-high boots pounce on top of a man with waist length hair and a really old looking leather jacket with a fur collar.
"Oh shit, sorry" I said as I slammed the door and started back down the stairs. The man in the leather coat stepped out of the room.
"Selphie!" I paused and turned. "It's good to see you again."
He stood there and smirked, not as nice as Siefer's smirk. I nodded at him, he jumped as the girl inside boomed "LOVER!"
"Coming dear." As he turned and ran inside.
Back to my quest for a shower. I almost opened the next door down but thankfully I didn't. The second I touched the doorknob I heard a very loud
"YEEHAW!!!"
Needless to say, I ran down to the next floor as fast as I could. The next room I walked past because I could hear an argument through the door.
"But, Quissy baby. I was going to do that, ya know!"
The next floor I came to, the noise drowned out the bickering from upstairs.
"Pata pata pata pata pata pata pata (ß running noise) * CLANK * thud teeheeeheeeheeheeeheeeheeeheeeheeeheee"
I walked down the stairs and looked in the open door trying to figure out what was making that noise. I saw a couple sitting on the floor with pots on their heads… hugging each other.
"I love you Zelly"
"I love you too Elle… hey Selphie wanna try?"
"No thanks" I shook my head and continued on to the bottom floor. Finally, I got to the only door I hadn't examined yet and put my ear to it. I heard Siefer humming. I opened the door, ran inside the bathroom and scared the crap out of him.
"GAAK!" he screamed as he dropped his scissors into the sink and clutched his chest. I noticed that he was only wearing a towel and we both started to blush.
"Knock first babe, please for Hyne's sake"
"Sorry, so uh what are ya doing?" I asked in obnoxious tone.
"I was, um going to cut my hair."
"Don't do that "I pushed his hand away and brushed his hair out of his face. "It looks good on you" I whispered.
He saw the things in my arms and grabbed them from me.
"Let me take those for you. You want to take a shower? You're up early. Are those my clothes you're wearing?"
"You're speaking rather quickly"
He blushed
"Yes, I'd like to take a shower, your clothes looked comfortable, care to join me or are you going to finish shaving?"
I pointed at the unshaved side of his face. He turned the brightest shade of red that I have ever seen. Before he had a chance to say anything, I was undressed in the shower. I closed my eyes as the water ran over my head.
I opened my eyes what seemed like I few seconds later, I was lying in bed, surrounded by nine worried faces. I groaned.
"AWAKE!" boomed a feminine voice.
"She's right, ya know."
"Yay, she's not dead!" Chimed a pair of voices.
"Selphie baby, you ok???" Siefer asked. I nodded, I tried to sit up, I grabbed my head. I lied back down.
"Nuh uh" I mumbled.
I opened my eyes back up and looked at the crowd around my bed. There was the silver haired girl and her brunette. To their right was the obnoxiously cute couple. At the foot of the bed was a tall man built like a brick wall with his arm around a beautiful blond woman. Holding my hand was Siefer, and behind him was a tall skinny man (about Siefer's height) with a nearly shaved head. What was left of his hair was bleached, and he was wearing a form fitting olive turtleneck sweater, and showed almost as much worry on his face as Siefer did.
Siefer looked as though he was about to cry. I squeezed his hand and gave a feeble smile.
"I'll be ok" I whispered to him.
A/N: ok so muse has left me again. If anybody actually reads this I have a wee contest. Tell me why Selphie passed out in the shower and I'll put it in the next chapter.
No brain tumor or pregnancy ideas because it'll start to look like a really bad soap opera (not like it already doesn't)
Back to sleeping on the job. ZzzzzZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZzzzzz.
