They were outside, in the streets of Meltokio. A head of blond hair was missing.

"Why are we all out here?" Genis asked Lloyd. "Why'd you send Colette away to go shopping?"

Lloyd said, "Because she's driving me nuts when I have to room with her! Remember a couple of weeks back, when we stayed at that House of Guidance? Our room had only one bed, and she insisted that I share the bed with her!"

"What's so bad about that?" wondered Zelos.

Sheena sighed. "I knew he'd say something like that."

Lloyd continued his story. "She goes to sleep as soon as her head hits the pillow. I settle in…try to get comfortable. Then she rolls over and pulls my part of the blanket off of me. I try to get it back…but she was holding on so tight, I couldn't get it from her without ripping it!

"Colette is that strong?" Regal asked with some interest.

Raine nodded. "Yes. After we fought you in Gaoracchia Forest, she's the one that carried you to Mizuho. She only used one arm."

"Remarkable."

Sheena said, "I know what Lloyd means. I once had to share a bed with Colette…"

She stopped when she saw the dreamy look on Zelos' face. His eyes should have been pink hearts.

She hit him.

"Owwww…"

Sheena continued, her temper subsiding, "As I was saying, I had to share a bed with Colette, and she pushed me over the side of the bed. I had to use the rug for a blanket and sleep on the floor. But I did swipe a pillow."

"Lucky, " Genis grumbled. "I shared a room with her once…and when I woke up in the middle of the night, and she was using ME as a pillow. She wouldn't let go."

"Come to think of it, why don't I ever room with Colette?" Zelos asked curiously.

Everyone gave Zelos a Look.

Zelos looked hurt. "You're saying you don't trust me?"

Everyone chorused, "Yes."

Zelos sobbed theatrically.

Raine said, "Zelos aside, I know what you're talking about, Lloyd. When I shared a room with her, she began snoring so loudly, it drove me crazy."

Genis looked amazed. "Wow, someone who can out-snore Raine!"

Lloyd hit Genis in the head.

"Owww…" Genis rubbed his head. "What was that for?"

Lloyd said, "I was saving the Professor the trouble."

But Lloyd got hit in the back of the head by Raine. "Lloyd, don't hit Genis," Raine said.

Genis grinned. "Ha-ha! Lloyd got hit!"

Raine hit him. "Genis, don't mock Lloyd."

Lloyd rubbed his head. "But what do we do about Colette?"

Regal said, "I could room with her."

"What?" Lloyd asked, confused.

Regal explained. "According to all of you, I'm almost as bad as she is."

Zelos nodded. "Oh, that might work. I woke up once, and Regal was using my chest as a pillow."

"Oh, so THAT'S why that pillow had so many ribs in it," Regal muttered.

"I'm not rooming with Regal any more," Sheena announced.

Lloyd said, "Well, uh, Zelos, if you're going to sleep in the same room someone a lot bigger than you are…"

"I was sleeping in the next room over."

Sheena's eyes widened. "Did you HAVE to let me know that?"

Lloyd completely missed the reference. "Well, we'll give it a shot. Let us know how it turns out, okay?"
