Troubles that come with Winter 3

Silence. It's either got to be one of the most pleasent or most annoying things on earth. Right now, it was great. I could stay like this forever.

"Ms.Lina? Ms.Lina, are you alright?" Except for that annoying sound! "Ms.Lina!"

Right then my eyes snapped open! Who the hell was trying to interrupt my sleep? As I gained my focus, I knew exactly who it was.

"Look! What do you- AHHH" WHERE THE HELL ARE MY CLOTHES! As I was about to beat the pulp out of Lamian, I suddendly was aware of my surroundings. I was in some bath house, by the looks of it.

"Why am I here?" I asked her and for some reason, my voice was shaking. "Well, after you passed out, again, Gourry picked you up immediately so you wouldn't hit the floor." I hate to admit my cheeks got a little warm after hearing that. But Gourry's always helped me out when I'm down...or passed out.

She then turned away from me and continued. "I told him you had a high fever and that I would have to treat it quickly."

I was starting to lose my patience. She still hadn't gotten to the point of why I was here, with her while I was naked! I'm not feeling again.

"Um...so why am I here?" I pointed at the water to emphasize my point. "I'm getting there!" I know SHE'S not getting an attitude with me, is she? "I told him I would give you an herbal bath to help your body and mind recover from your cold." Oh. But..."Where's Gourry then?" I needed to look for him so we could the hell out of there. I cannot take any more of this girl's attitude with me! I mean, what did I do? Okay so I just happened to travel with a swordsman who was a total hottie and she was attracted to him..Wait a minute? blush GAHH What am I talking about.

"Oh. He was in you room last time I checked. Why exactly, um, do you need to seem him now?"

I could have sworn I saw her twitch. He's waiting in my room? Oh well, can't dwell on the trivial. I stood up and looked for a towel as quickly as I could." Ahh! Cold!" Okay, good to go. "Hey! Where do you think you're going, Ms.Lina?" I felt her hand grab onto my arm.

I turned and glared toward her. Why was she being all assertive? And if you know me at all, I do not like being yelled at for no freakin' reason. Grrr. I'll make her feel my wrath if she keeps this up. "Look! I'm getting Gourry so we can talk. And I have to do it privately.

I turned and left...even though I nearly tripped out the door. Goodness my legs feel like jelly.Speaking of jelly, I need to find that jellyfish. I snuck a peek around the corner of the hall to see if anyone was there. Then, after the coast was clear, I ran for dear life, regardless that my legs were a little wobbly. I was still in a towel y'know!

"Aww, dammit it's cold!" Crap. Why didn't I get a robe? I stopped to catch my breath and not to mention I felt kind of dizzy. "Wait a minute..." I was running around like a chicken without a head, that I hadn't realized I hadn't the slightest clue where the guest rooms were. Damn. Smooth Lina. Real smooth.

Then I heard footsteps in the hall coming toward me. "Ahh,damn." I mumbled looking around to see if I could hide. I mean c'mon, why would I let myself be seen with just a towel on when there could be a pervert trying to get a free peep show.

Anyway, I kept trying to run, but legs wouldn't move. Crap! There getting closer! I just decided I'd run past them...but that didn't happen. Stupid me, I ran into them with my eyes closed.This stupid cold is clouding my judgement.

"Oh, sorry are you al-Lina?" That voice. "Huh,Gourry? There you are! I was loo-" Remember how I said I could be crushed by a bear hug from him? Well, I still stand by that because, right now I can't breath. "G-Gourry...I...can't..b-breath!"Not to mention he keeps squishing my breasts with his chest. "Sorry. I was just worried when you passed out again." he said to me sheepishly. The thought is flattering that he worried about me the though. But I hate when people see me when I'm weak. It feels icky.

"I'm fine Gourry." I then realized I was laying right on top of him. And I'm still in my towel."Oh, uhh...sorry." He then hoisted me up so I could get back up on my feet.

He's being super kind to me.Where's it all coming from all of a sudden?

He didn't make a crack at me about my chest. Not that I like it though. "Gourry what's up with you? You've

been acting stranger than usual." He then looked at me, still not noticing I'm nearly naked. Gourry turned around and said,"What are talking about Lina? You're sick and I just want you to get better."

Sure. I still don't know why he wnated to come here in the first place."Gourry, you jellyfish!" I went around in front of him and brought him him down by the collar of his shirt so he could see me face to face. "Why did you suggest we come here? The only thing I've gotten out this is a stupid cold and a girl who dares to get an attitude with me!" I'm sure he was scared because he started to blanched a little. I let go of him then his face changed a different color: red. What's he blushing about? Dammit now I am and don't even why he is!

"Lina, I..." Why is he so flustered now? You see, this is what I'm talking about. This is unlike him. And did the idiot still not notice I'm partially naked! Gourry then put his on my shoulder. I felt like my head was going to explode. Why does he keep making me feel like this!

"Lina, did your chest grow?" WHAT! I looked down and noticed he was pulling at the hold of my towel. Damn pervert! "You idiot!" My hand met with his face and smashed him into the wall. My god, he has such a breast fetish!

But deep down I'm glad he snapped out of his weirdness. Well, weird that's different for him anyway. I didn't even notice the wry smile that slowly crept up on my face.

Whew! Another chapter out the door. Sorry for the wait, I had stuff to do. Anyway, I hope I'm doing pretty well with this and hopefully I'll be wrapping it up soon.Oh, thanks to those who reviewed. You're awesome!

Okay give me a review please. Ja ne!
