X blinked as he woke up. He looked around his room as he got off his sofa. Alia was lying on his bed, still asleep. He had thought back to the last night, nothing had really happened, but it still seemed like a dream. After the kissing for awhile in the hall they had made their way to X's room where they kissed for a bit until Signis called Alia down to the control room. He had taken that time to run a self-diagnostics test to make sure that Limit was wrong about him being infected. He remembered being interrupted by Alia's return to the room upon which they talked for a while, about what X couldn't remember but he remembered them talking about something.
X broke out of reminiscing as he noticed Alia stirring. She turned toward X and smiled. "Good morning sleepy head." X said as he got up from the sofa and walked over to her. Alia stretched and smiled.
"Yep, I agree that today is going to be a great day." She said as she stretched.
X laughed, "And why's that?"
Alia hopped off the bed and walked up to him. "You'll see later X," she said as she kissed him lightly, "but until then I have some stuff to do."
X smiled as he returned the kiss. "Right, then I guess that means you should get going."
Alia nodded. "Yep, so I'll see you later X."
Alia walked out the door just as Zero walked up to it. Zero watched Alia walk out with a smile on her face. He quickly let himself in and looked at X. "Hmm, Alia looked happy X, does this mean what I think it does?" Zero inquired.
"What? Oh, no, nothing like that Zero." X said, blushing slightly.
"Uh huh, sure X. Just don't get to attached." Zero replied.
X looked at Zero, a bit confused. "Why do you say that?"
"Oh, never mind it X. It doesn't matter." Zero replied as he headed to X's fridge, which was bare as a bone. "Geeze X, eat much?"
X smirked, "Only when it's needed Zero." He stretched and headed toward the door. "But I could go for something, wanna head to the cafeteria?"
Zero nodded and headed out the door, followed by X.
The two arrived at the cafeteria and quickly grabbed a table. The morning rush would be upon them soon so X wanted to make sure they had a table.
"Geeze X, I don't see why you worry so much, our rank is higher then anyone besides Signis, we could just boot them out." Zero joked.
"Sure we COULD Zero, but you remember what happened last time you did that." X replied.
"So I started a bit of a food fight, what's your point?" Zero asked.
"My point? My point is that we shouldn't be setting bad examples like that, other hunters look up to us!"
"Geeze X, since when did you ever care about setting an example. Every chance you get your braking rules and direct orders."
"For the sake of humanity!"
"For the sake of yourself!"
"How so Zero?!"
"Think about it X! Every time you do that it's to take revenge on someone, normally Sigma! You just did it for yourself not that long ago against Limit!"
"That's not true Zero, I did it for the sake of my m-"
"Your what? Men? No X, you did it because YOU wanted revenge for causing YOU pain!"
"So your saying you wouldn't have?"
"I'm saying that you did it for yourself, not for your team."
"At least I succeeded in beating him."
Zero laughed. "I was caught off guard obviously. I mean, if you could beat him then I would have no problem against him."
"Are you saying I'm weaker then you Zero?" X questioned, obviously amused by this comment.
"Maybe X, or maybe I'm just insulting your intelligence." Zero mocked.
X shot up like a bullet, his seat sliding back a few feet. "That's it Zero, you and me, right here, right now!"
Zero smirked, "Sure X, anything you say, but I suggest we leave it until were somewhere that no one will disturb us, especially Signis." Zero motioned over his shoulder to a table in a corner where Signis sat watching X and Zero.
X frowned and grabbed the seat, sliding it under the table. "Fine, we'll solve this later Zero." With that X turned and walked out the door.
Zero smiled to himself. "Good, every thing is going exactly as planned. . ." he said to himself as he leaned back in his chair. "Just one more obstacle to deal with. . ."
