Hey all,
I do not own Holly Short. Or any other character I may use. They are Eion Cofier's and I respect that.

lyle Mcfarland : Do me a favour.... Stay away from me..

Maiden Genisis : Inventing yay!
dadsnavygirl831 : Thanks. I know. Root is always amusing.
cocoaducks :Face it. I'm weird!
artemisthehunter123 : Funny yes and weird.. I get, I'm weird! But aren't most funny stories weird in their own way?
who cares : I like the name! Thanks!
Trent Glitter : Thanks!
cookie monster :Root's feelings. Got it!
slime frog : thanks!

Okay. Sorry I haven't updated in awhile. If any of you know what I.B. is, you should understand. i never knew people would like this story.. Weird huh?

Trouble knocked on Root's door. "Commander?! I have an idea!"
"Get in here captain!"
Trouble came in and shut the door behind him. "I don't know who did this but I have an idea about who to send this dress to. Technically it's yours now, so you can do what ever you want with it."
"Keep going."
So, we should.."
Trouble finished his plan. Root nodded.

Holly was hanging out in the breakroom. She was talking to Lili Frond, who was annoying her about Trouble.
"I mean he's so cute! I don't know how to get him to ask me out!"
"How about you pretend to commit suicide and then he might go out with you in sympathy?"
"Really? Thanks Holly. I'll try that!"
Holly rolled her eyes and sighed.
"I have a package here for Lili Frond!"

A cadet appeared. Holly stared at it. A shiny purple box, the same size as a ring box.
The crowd for the break room, watched as Lili opened it.
"An engagement ring!" She shrieked. "But it doesn't say from who."
Holly took the box. "There's a note to go to the training areana as soon as you recieve this."
"It must be from Trouble!"
Holly glanced at the ring Lili was showing off proudly. It was fake as those rings you get from the dentist. Foaly wouldn't have done this, Root might suspect him.
Root appeared. "Well, I suppose we should all go down to the training areana."
The whole group marched down there, Lili in front of the pack.

Trouble was there, standing beside Chix who was holding half dead flowers.
"I can't believe you did this for me man!"
"Don't thank me. It must have been the girl who likes you."
Trouble vanished as the huge crowd appeared. He melted into the crowd and went beside Holly.
"What are you doing?"
"Having fun!"
Holly smiled at him, then turned to watch Lili freak out. "Ity's you! You gave me this ring?"
Chix took his chance. "Yes, I did. I'm so happy you're marrying me!"
"I'm not marrying you!"
"You put on the ring!"
"Well, I'm taking it off!" As Lili struggled tog et the ring off, a mail elf appeared. "Got a package for Chix Verbil, Chix Verbil down here?"
Chix ignored Lili and rushed up to get the box. He came back down, looking exciteded.
The crowd knew what was happening. They anticipated it, suppressing their hunger. Holly nudged trouble.
"That's what you two did?"
Trouble nodded as Chix ripped open the box. The pink dress was there. the dress sitl amusing wans't as great as what Chix read out from the bottom of the box.
Dear Chixy,
Wear this tonite, I'll be waiting.

Love,

Lili


The crowd started up into huge laughter. Chix was stunned, Lili wrenched the ring off threw it at Chix and ran upstairs.
Root and Trouble exchanged high fives and chose that moment to disappear. Holly decided it was best to finish that paperwork she had ignored for the past two weeks.
