MUCH PAWKY, RAMEN, ANIME, & MANGA LATER

(Give or take a few freak outs where Roy narrowly avoided seduction)

Risa was winning yet another game of DDR when she suddenly collapsed. Roy freaked out once again, this time out of concern, not fear of his and Risa's virtue. He couldn't bring himself to slap her cheeks in hopes of making her come to, but opted for burning a small section of his sleeve under her nose. Unfortunately, he didn't take his coat before doing this, making not the smell, but Roy's girlish screams of panic and pain as he tried to put out the fire that was raging along his arm bring Risa back to consciousness.

"I have a headache… Ouch, what's happened? I… ugh" Risa's head fell as she dazed in and out of consciousness. "Did I get hammered or what? I feel like I have the mother of all hangovers. Roy? Are you there? Is that your girlfriend screaming?"

"Ouch, no ummm no ones screaming (sweat drop) I'm the only one here, how ya doing? Do you remember… you know…what happened?" He nonchalantly brushed ash off what remained of his sleeve.

Risa bolted upright, looking at Roy's clothes askew, and her own dolled up appearance. "OH MY GOD!! Did I sleep with you! Oh no, oh no, oh my friggin' god I didn't, I-I I couldn't have." She looked up at Roy with terror open in her eyes. "Did we… did I … did you?" her words were lost in a mess of hyperventilation.

"No… it repulses you that much?" Roy looked away.

"N-no, it's not that…I want to remember it, if it… if we…" Risa blushed, looking away; painfully unaware of the hours she had just spent trying to get in Roy's pants. "Why is my hair down? Ugh, my blouse… the top buttons…" Risa stopped her critique of her own appearance, and started singing softly under her breath. "What are you doing to me? I'm so into you. And the hardest part is knowing that I'll never follow through, it's slowly killing me and I wish it wasn't true 'cause I'm so into you…"

Roy snapped back to face her "What did you just say?"

"I… I really like you Roy. I shouldn't be telling you this, you have a girlfriend, I need to accept that and move on… Why do you have to have a girlfriend?! Why can't you even give me a chance?!" The poor woman was nearly in tears, unaware of what she had made known in her drugged state, and expecting rejection.

"You're right, I do have a girlfriend" Roy crossed the distance between them in a second, enveloping Risa in a crushing embrace and pinning her upon lips a long kiss. "Her name is Risa Hawkeye; she won my heart fair and square this afternoon. I dumped the other girl for you, Risa"

"You… and me? Together? When did this happen? Why was I not informed?" Risa asked playfully "So… what did I do to rid you of that clingy bitch of a girl you had before?"

"Well, now that you ask… I have the entire time you were under the influence of Sodium Pentathol on tape; just for back up in courts should you be a spy and such. Which, by the way, you aren't, you're all clear. Do you want to pop some popcorn so we can watch it together? I won't mind if 'itsy bitsy baby' tags along."

Risa glared at the use of her gun's nickname, then grinned. "It's a date"

The End

(Tune in next time to see what happens when Ed is accidentally drugged with Sodium Pentathol … in Resembool?)
