Yay! Fifth chapter!

Summary: Now that Eva's somewhat stable, Jordan's thinking about risking a talk with Don Wei. But Eva still has another secret, although this one's more annoying than bad.

Read and find out. Happy chappie!

Ch. 5: Secrets

"Wh-where am I? Why am I sitting up, and what's this sorry excuse for a pillow doing here?!" Eva mumbled.

"Well, Eva, it seems that you had fallen asleep on me again, and that 'sorry excuse for a pillow' is my arm!" Jordan teased. These "cuddle sessions" were getting more frequent by the day.

"Dang. Sorry I made your life miserable by being tired, Mr. I'm-the-center-of-the-earth!"

"Hey, I wasn't trying to be mean. If it means anything to you, I'm going to try to talk to Don Wei, maybe get him to stop loading all this crap on you."

"Thanks, but do you see pigs flying? Jordan, if you talk to him, you'll only make it worse. Please don't!" she begged.

"Oh fine, have it your way…at Burger King now!" Jordan started pouting, but, seeing a good pun, made a joke. "Eva, you're all tense. Lighten up once in a while."

"How do you know I'm tense?"

"Because, you're sitting on my lap!"

"Bing Bing Bing, we have a winner!" she chuckled and relaxed.

"You draw well," Jordan acknowleged, changing the subject. "Who's this?" he wondered, flipping to a certain page and pointing to a sketch.

"Hey!" Eva snapped, shutting the notebook.

"Yeesh, I was just wondering. Don't have a seizure." he reasoned.

"I was going to show you later today, but only if you can keep a lot of secrets."

"O-kay then. Let's get ready, Aikka's kitchen is calling."

"Ha, ha."

Everyone (except Don Wei) had finished their Nourasian meal of fried "gilden", the equivalent of earth ham. Again, Stan and Koji went off to the Arrow. ("They don't ever give up, do they?!") Which means Jordan was left with Eva again.

"Didn't you want to show me someone earlier?" Jordan asked.

"That's where we're going. Be patient."

They wandered the hallways a bit more until they came upon the fake wall again.

"Yoo-hoo, Knucklehead! We're comin' in!" Eva yelled through the wall. Then she pressed the stone and climbed through the hole, followed by Jordan.

"Who the hell is that!"

Yea, I know it was short. Reeeeealy short. I needed a cliffhanger so that I could work on my others. Yea, others. I'm writing a "Who I Am" so people understand me-Kyrra. BTW, I'm not calling it "Who I Am" because digiwildfire had the idea. Im just using it so my OC's are understood. My fic will be called "A Guide to Kyrra and Other VD of O OC's". Kinda obvious, ain't it?
