I'm back once again! Thanks to all my reviewers! Read review no flames please. All flamers will be attacked by my evil gerbil who'll eat your underwear on every Tuesday.

To alchemistofdeath: The words blended together means Cougar is talking extremely fast.

To seiko123: I'm not sure but that's what they said, (normally I don't believe what I read on the internet) But it sounds believable to me. Thank you very much.

Now on to the next chapter.

Simply Love

Ch 3

They arrived at the village, to find it being attacked by an alter user. Kazuma and Ryuhou were fighting him.

Cougar set Mimori down somewhere safe. "Duty calls. Stay here and stay safe I'll be back." He said walking away.

"But…" She sat there quietly watching them fight when she heard.

"Ryuhou be careful!" called Cherise

She cringed at the sound of her voice.

Cherise looked over at her. "Hello Mimori."

"Hello Cherise."

"I saw you with Cougar are you and him a couple now?"

"I'd hardly call that an appropriate topic of conversation right now."

She laughed. "Really now. You'd two make a cute couple since how Ryuhou doesn't like you."

"You!"

"Look out!" yelled some one.

Mimori turned to see something flying at her. She screamed, and then she felt something grab her. She opened her eyes and looked up to see Cougar was holding her. "Cougar?"

"Are you okay Mimori?"

She looked at him and realized he was hurt. "Cougar you're hurt."

"But are you okay?"

"Yes but…"

He smiled. "I'm glad your okay." Then he passed out in her arms.

"Cougar! Wake up Cougar!" She yelled shaking him.

The others walked over there. "What happened?" asked Kazuma.

"He took the attack for me." She said.

"Fool." Said Ryuhou sternly.

"Well at least he cares about me!" she yelled

Ryuhou glared at the fallen Cougar.

She shok her head. "This isn't the time to fight he needs help."

"I'll helo carry him back to the house." Said Kazuma.

Mimori sat there quietly watching Cougar sleep.

"Is he going to be allright?" asked Kanami walking in the room.

"Yes Ithink he'll be allright."

"Are you going to stay with him all night?"

"Yes."

"Okay then I'll leave you alone then." She said leaving.

She sighed deeply and rested her head on the edge of the bed. She then felt something play with her hair. "Huh?" She asked raising up to be face to face with Cougar.

"Hello beatiful."

"Your awake?" she said suonding surprised.

He gave her a strange look. "Surprised?"

"Yeah a little I didn't expect you to up allready."

"I recover fast."

She frowned. "With things like that you really should take your time."

"Taking time is soooo boring."

"Really you should take your time."

"Being slow is for losers. EvenifdoingsomeanstimewithyounotthatIdon'twanttoIreallhatelayingarounddoingnothingunless-"

She placed her hand over his mouth to get him to stop talking. "Your doing it again."

"Doing what again?"

"Talking to fast."

"Sorry Miss Minori."

"Its Mimori!"

He luaghed. "Sorry again. Man I'm really bad at names aren't I. OfcourseyouallreadynoticedthisbecauseIallwaysmissprounceyournamenomatterhowmanytimesyoucorrectme."

She laughed. "Get some sleep Cougar."

He sighed. "Do I have to?"

"Doctor's orders."

"That's completely unnecessary Miss Minori I'm fine." He said trying to get out of bed when a sharp pain went though his body. "Ouch." He said sitting back down. "Then again maybe I was wrong about that."

"If I satyed with you would you saty in bed and get some rest?"

His face turned an interesting shade of red. "Here in my bed?"

"No you prevert!"

"Sorry I…"

"Go to sleep okay."

"Fine." He said laying back down.

"Good night."
