A/N: First off I'd like to thank Ladysteph for her great reviews. She gave me my first review ever!! (Sob) it's good to know people are reading my story. Well any way cause' she was my first reviewer, I'd like to tell you to read her great story "Prisoner in your Arms" (out of my own will, mind you).

Chapter 3 ::Meryl, jealous? Part 1::

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________


Meryl woke up the next morning at 6:30am to yelling and dishes breaking. This, for one, is not a good way to wake up Meryl Stryfe, unless you want a fist for breakfast that is. Meryl got up off her bed, walked downstairs, slowly but menacingly like a cheetah ready to pounce on it's prey, ready to kick some ass!


Down stairs

Vash's eyebrow twitched up and stopped what he was doing. It took him 2 seconds to figure out who was coming, the slow yet impatient foot steps on the stairs, and the light tap of fist to hand. It was MERYL!


"Oh crap she's coming!" Vash thought aloud. Vash glanced at his "partner in crime" Milly Thompson, who was at the moment petting her pudding cup with motherly tenderness. 'She doesn't know what's coming' Vash thought grimly. 'Oh, why did I have to mess with Milly's pudding, WHY?!' Vash thought, franticly trying to find a hiding spot while Milly, still petting her pudding, asked an innocent question.


"Are you playing hide and seek Mr.Vash?" Milly loudly announced without knowing the dangers of this action.


"SO NOW WE'RE PLAYING HIDE HUH VASH?" Meryl asked, now at the bottom of the stairs.


"P-p-pleee-ease don't hurt me! I was just p-p-plaaying with Milly. I didn't know she was so p-p-protective of her p-p-puddiiiiing," Vash cried pitifully.


Milly ran past Meryl and went upstairs trying to avoid the verbal fight which was rapidly escalating into a physical fight.


Vash, who was behind the couch shaking with fear, just waited for Meryl to find him. He was always good at hiding, just never at hiding from Meryl particularly. Maybe Meryl was just too good a seeker. While Vash pondered his theories he felt someone push him to the ground firmly and straddle him roughly. It was Meryl. 'Aw man I really got to work on my hiding skills,' Vash thought.


"Gotcha," Meryl said with a certain happy/maniacal ring to her voice. "Please Meryyyyl. I really didn't mean to wake you up! I'm sorrrrryyy, really I am!" Vash whined, sounding even more pathetic then last time.


Vash finally noticed their awkward position. 'Well it has some advantages' Vash thought seductively. 'Aw man I probably shouldn't be thinking like that while she's on top of me' Vash thought, mentally slapping himself.


"So you like to be on top, eh Meryl," Vash said to Meryl seductively, trying to hide the fact that he's scared to death. 'Angry Meryl + Me on the floor=Death to m-'


His thoughts were cut off by a remarkably fast slap on the across the head by a small yet strong hand. Vash saw the same hand go after his head with the same remarkable speed but this time he grabbed it with his own remarkable speed, firmly, yet soft enough not to hurt the hand which he held.


"Gotcha," Vash said to Meryl, mocking what she said to him when she caught him a little while ago. Meryl struggled to try to get out of his grip but it was to no avail.


"Grrryousonofabitc-" Meryl was cut off by the feel of someone tenderly kissing her hand, once, twice, tree times and then stopping. Meryl looked at Vash and saw a sweet loving man, but that soon changed into a goofy grin.


"That really hurt Meryl!" Vash whined in his usual goofy voice. 'Why don't you show me your true face Vash? Are you afraid?' Meryl contemplated her theories while Vash looked at her strangely.


"Whatcha thinkin bout?" Vash said in a voice, which to Meryl sounded like a 5 year old with absolutely no regard for the English language. Meryl shrugged.


"Nothing," she mumbled.


"Ok," Vash said, knowing she was lying but not wanting to push the any subject further. "Oh, Meryl, I just remembered, would you and Milly like to go to the bar with me tonight?" Vash asked hopefully.


'Is he asking me on a date?!' Meryl asked herself. 'No, of course he's not. He asked Milly to go also' Meryl's pessimistic side taking control again.


"Oh yeah and tonight is Ladies drink free night!" Vash added, trying to persuade her.


Meryl contemplated his idea for a minute. She thought about a drunk Milly and Vash but then, she really did need a break.


"Ok," Meryl plainly stated.


"YAHOOO!" Vash screamed, jumping up and down like a little boy.


"I'm going to buy some donuts! Thanks again Meryl!" And he was off on his mission to..buy donuts. 'That's Vash for ya," Meryl thought. She really was going to try to enjoy tonight.


Tonight at the bar

They sat in the only bar in town. It really was nice and the people were great..if you were a guy. Meryl was getting whistled at and asked out by numbers of people and every time Meryl got up they were like wolves, running for Meryl, just to squeeze her ass. 'Well it is nice' Vash thought seductively.


A little later

"WOW WHAT A HOTTIE!" Vash screamed aloud, gaining a slap on the head. Vash was looking at a woman with long legs, which shown, on a count of she was wearing a tight and short black mini skirt with a slit small slit. She wore a tight pink spaghetti strap shirt which pressed her breasts together making them look bigger and showing tons of cleavage. 'I don't like her already' Meryl thought bitterly.

TO BE CONTINUED.
