Two weeks went by. Milly and Wolfwood are happier than ever. Vash and Meryl weren't normal, as usual. But lately Vash has been leaving for hours and coming back with a raspy voice and no one knows why.
Meanwhile Meryl is getting annoyed and a little worried at the fact of him mysteriously disappearing for hours. Every time she would ask him where he went he would say he went to the bar, but she went to the bar while he was gone one day and he wasn't there.
It went that way for a week, the two of them would head off to work in the morning and she would wait for him to get home later. He would come home just in time for dinner and even then he wouldn't say a word. He, Vash the Stampede, wouldn't talk at all during dinner. Meryl, as would I, was getting quite suspicious of what the infamous gunman of a boyfriend was up to.
She had a plan for finding out, too. And he was going to tell her. That is, if she didn't get too distracted.
Saturday morning. The day her plan was to go into action, her day off. She was heading off into Vash's room when she noticed a bouquet of wildflowers on her desk.
"That's real sweet Vash but I know that isn't what you've been up to for the past week." She snickered and walked over to the colorful arrangement.
'To: Meryl
From:
I love you more than there are flower petals on Gunsmoke.'
Meryl smiled and laid the card down. Thinking for a moment she wondered why he didn't put his name. After all, she knew who it was anyways.
She decided to hold off on "The Plan." (A/N No dirty thoughts Zhen Ji! lol!)
Downstairs Vash had prepared a breakfast for the two of them. On the table was a vase of red Geraniums and all was set for two. The scene was perfect. Food was set up as well. The menu was scrambled eggs, bacon, pancakes, biscuits and gravy. The only thing missing was Vash.
She stepped off the bottom stair and was lifted of her feet by a tall blond, handsome man. (A/N Gee.. I wonder who?? ^_^.) Her stormy gray eyes had sparkled into his magical aqua ones, "Good morning, Beautiful." He said slyly, carrying her to the beautifully set table.
"Vash-" He placed a finger on her mouth, silencing anything she was trying to say to him.
"I have a present for you." He sat her in a chair. "Would you like some entertainment with breakfast?" He didn't even bother with an answer, he just turned around and headed for the c.d. player. 'Why not?' Meryl thought, taking a bite out of her delicious food.
Vash walked over to the c.d. player in the corner of the room. After a few seconds of button pressing music started up. At first the song sounded like carnival music, but when the song started up a little more is sounded much better.
"Girl when we started baby we were friends
But that's not how this fairy tale is gonna end
See I was thinking and it clicked one day
That no one else has ever made me feel this way
Next time I saw you girl I knew I had to try
To tell you everything that I was feeling deep inside
And listen good cause what I say is from my heart
So if you're ready."
Vash had noticeably improved in his singing skills. It sounded better than Meryl ever dreamed out of him. His dancing had improved as well. It wasn't crazy anymore, it was like something a boy band would do.
"See I toss and turn when I'm alone
And I just can't wait 'til you get home
Waiting for your call 'cause tonight we're gonna' do it all
Girl it's just the two of us.
Cause I'm thinking about you day and night
And I just can't get you off my mind
When you get a minute baby I was thinking we could hook up
It's just the two of us, the two of us
'Cause in a room full of people you're the only one around
And nothing in this world could every bring us down
Baby I'll be there
Telling you I care
This I swear.
Girl it's just the two of us, the two of us."
In all her life she had never had anyone be so nice to her. It had never occurred to her whether to ask where Milly and Wolfwood were, nor to ask if any letters had come from Knives.
"Baby I wonder if you feel the same that I do
I wonder if you're going through the things I'm going through
I sent you flowers on a Saturday
Inside's a letter with a message and no name
See I just love the feeling, knowing I can make you smile
Just listen to the words I have to say
Just take a chance"."
'Take a chance how?' Meryl pondered slightly between verses.
"See I toss and turn when I'm alone
And I just can't wait 'til you get home
Waiting for your call 'cause tonight we're gonna' do it all
Girl it's just the two of us.
Cause I'm thinking about you day and night

And nothing in this world could every bring us down
Baby I'll be there
Telling you I care
This I swear.
Girl it's just the two of us, the two of us."
It just gets better with each day
I always wanted to tell you but I was so afraid.
Cause I toss and turn when I'm alone
And I just can't wait 'til you get home
Waiting for your call 'cause tonight we're gonna' do it all
Girl it's just the two of us.
Cause I'm thinking about you day and night

Girl it's just the two of us, the two of us."
The music came to an abrupt end and Meryl sat speechless at the table. She was stunned out of her mind. At the end of the song he knelt down in front of her.
"Meryl Stryfe, would you do me the honor of changing your name to Mrs. Stampede? Will you marry me?"
Meryl didn't know whether what to do. Scream or tackle him. Instead tears streamed down her face as she wept out an "Of course." and he placed a gold and sapphire ring on her finger.
Meryl found out that he had been going to a singing and choreography teacher for the past week and he had also been studying many cook books for her. That was true love.
Meanwhile Meryl is getting annoyed and a little worried at the fact of him mysteriously disappearing for hours. Every time she would ask him where he went he would say he went to the bar, but she went to the bar while he was gone one day and he wasn't there.
