CHAPTER 3

"The Feelings of 2 Net-Ops and Net-Navis Revealed"

"Lan! You're awake." Maylu said happily and she couldn't help but, hug him happy that he was OK.

Lan hugged her back.

"I'm OK." Lan said while still hugging her.

This caused Megaman to chuckle to himself. Lan put both hands on either side of her face and looked her in the eyes.

"I'm alright, don't worry." Lan said brushing tears from her face.

Megaman grinned. He had known a long time that the two net-ops had feelings for each other. Roll showed up it Megaman PET not knowing what was going on.

"What's going on, Megaman?" Roll asked.

"Can't you tell Roll? Lan cares for her." Megaman told Roll as he watched the kids.

"Maylu cares for him too. She was worried sick even through she knew what was going on." Roll told Megaman.

"I thought she might." Megaman replied

Lan pulled Maylu close and...soon they're lips locked. Roll smiled a moment then turned around to give them a bit of private time.

"C'mon let's leave those two alone" Megaman suggested quietly.

Roll nodded.

'Wonder how she feels about me?' Megaman mused.

Roll grabbed Megaman's hand.

"Let's go." Roll said.

Roll tried to hide a blush when she grabbed Megaman's hand. Megaman noticed her blush.

"Are you alright?" Megaman asked.

Roll nodded.

"Okay." Megaman said.

Roll turned and hugged Megaman. Then she smiled at him with a bit of a mystif look in her eyes. Megaman looked at her in wonder. Roll kissed him and disappeared as she jacked in. Megaman was stunned as he returned the kiss. Roll smiled as the navi's continued to kiss. Lan and Maylu glanced at the PET and Lan quickly put it away to give them alone time.

'Thanks Lan.' Megaman thought.

"Do you wanna come in?" Maylu asked.

Mrs. Hikari was watching the two young lovebirds through the window she smiled and closed the curtain. Lan nodded and the two went into her house.

"I wonder if SHE knows." Megaman said to himself after noticing Mrs. Hikari.

"You mean about Lan and Maylu. She's probably known for a while. She is his mother after all." Roll said with a smile.

Megaman blushed in response.

"But, it certainly took them long enough to realize it." Roll said.

"I know! I was beginning to think that they wouldn't tell each other!" Megaman said excitedly.

"They still haven't told each other but, they have shown it." Roll said smiling at Megaman.

Megaman nodded. Lan and Maylu started talking...time passed by quickly and it got really late.

"Um, guys? Don't you have school tomorrow?" Megaman informed them.

"Huh, what do you mean?" Lan asked not noticing the time.

"It's nearly 12 midnight." Megaman said.

"What? I've gotta go, Maylu. I'll see you at school tomorrow." Lan said kissing Maylu before he left.

"Later, Roll!" Megaman called.

"You can count on that." Roll called after him.

Megaman grinned in an 'I know a secret' way as he looked at the boy.

"My mom is gonna kill me." Lan said to himself as he ran towards his house.

Lan noticed Megaman's grin.

"What is it, Megaman?" Lan asked as he opened the door.

"Oh, nothing!" Megaman said.

Mrs. Hikari watched as her son ran up to bed. Mrs. Hikari smiled and brought up a sandwich. Lan was in his PJ's.

"Want something to eat Lan?" Mrs. Hikari asked.

'She's sure being cool over this.' Megaman thought.

"Lan I saw you and Maylu out there...and I remember how it was with me and your father." Mrs. Hikari said smiling at Lan.

And Lan couldn't help but, smile back at his mother.

"I knew it." Megaman told them.

"Knew what?" Mrs. Hikari asked in confusion and Lan looked a bit confused as he took a bite of his sandwich.

"Mrs. Hikari. I noticed you were looking when we were at Maylu's." Megaman said.

Mrs. Hikari nodded.

"I was." Mrs. Hikari said.

Again Megaman grinned but a yawn escaped. Lan took his last bite of food and yawned as well.

"Go on to sleep you two." Mrs. Hikari said and took the plate and walked out of the room.

"C'mon pal...bedtime." Megaman said sleepily.

Lan nodded and fell asleep. Megaman went into sleep mode.
