Waaaaaagh! I'm soooooo sorry I haven't updated in….god, was it really six months ago? Sheesh….you hereby have permission to Gibbs Slap me (and shame on you if you don't get that reference). Well…here's ch. 3. Enjoy!
Mercedes Kidon got dressed as quickly as possible, not bothering to stop and think in full about the situation she was in. The only thing on her mind was……EDWARD!! (C'mon, I know you saw that coming). She pauses. "He's got a short temper…" She muses aloud. Then she grins. "Heehee…short…"
Mercedes Kidon walks out into the hallway to search for her 'Shorty Cutie Pie' for the purpose of glomps and uberglomps (yes, I said uber). "Where could the adorable short one have gone?" She mutters, not paying attention to her surroundings. She turned a corner and found herself face-to-face with……
Nope.
A random mousy brown-haired woman.
"Oh, I'm sorry!" The woman screamed. "I nearly knocked you over! I'm so sorry! I wasn't looking where I was going! Please forgive me!" Mercedes Kidon backed…away…sloooowly…
"It's fine," She started nervously, holding up her hands in front of her. "I'm fine. I should reeeeally be going though. Bye!" The poor, confused girl ran off before the mousy woman could start crying. "Sheesh," She muttered when she was a reasonably safe distance away. "What the heck was that all about?" She shrugs. "Doesn't matter, I guess." Then, Mercedes Kidon walked down the hall, merrily singing: "Oh where, oh where, could the short cutie've gone? Oh where, oh where could he be?..."
*Clu-clank* *Clu-clank* *Clu-clank*
"Brother, do you think that girl will be okay?"
"Eh…"
"Do you think we should tell the Colonel about her?"
"It's not like she's some rogue chimera or anything."
"I know, but….she doesn't…..um, she doesn't seem like she's from here, you know?"
*Knock knock*
"Can we talk about this later, Al? I don't want to add to Mustang's list of things to nag at me."
"But-"
"Let it rest."
The door opened.
Sorry it's so short. I was gonna write more, but I was kinda pressed for time…I have more for the next chapter already, though, so no half-year wait this time. Thanks for reading! Reviews are appreciated, and ideas are as well….cuz I have two pages of stuff left, and that's it…..
Thanks again!
