The second chapter is up. I hope everyone likes it. I don't own Storm Hawks, sadly.

Aerrow's Jealousy

Finn's back hit the wall of the hanger as Aerrow held the collar of his shirt.

"What the hell happened while I was gone?" Aerrow whispered into Finn's ear with anger dripping from his voice, "What did you tell her? I trusted you enough to be able to keep a secret for me and not tell Piper."

"It's not what I told her but more like what she told me. Come on man, you have to give her some kind of acknowledgment that the kiss meant more then just get better soon. She said that if the kiss really meant nothing to you then she doesn't think that she can stay on the Condor with us, seeing you everyday." Finn said hastily before he realized what he had said, "Shit, I promised her that I wouldn't tell you that."

Aerrow let go of Finn and sat down on his skimmer with his head in his hands. He had calmed down at Finn's words because he took them as Piper wanted more then just being friends. "How and I going to do this Finn, it took so much courage to even give Piper that kiss. It's easier to face the Dark Ace then to face Piper."

"Hey maybe what you need to boost your courage is a trip to Tropica! It may just be what you need, I mean come on your on a beach instead of on the Condor. The atmosphere is totally different!!!"

Aerrow looked a Finn with disbelief and said, "You know I think that is the best plan you have ever come up with Finn."

"Set course to Tropica! We are in need of a break." Aerrow said as he walked on to the bridge. Junko smiled and hollered what sounded like 'yes' then ran off with Finn to get ready while Piper walked off seeing as Stork didn't need directions to get to the terra.

Aerrow looked after her as she walked past him, he couldn't help but notice how her hips swayed. He shook his head trying to get rid of the thoughts that started to come into his head before he started off to his room to get ready himself.

As the condor landed on Tropica, Piper came walking out of her room with a baggy t-shirt and lose fitting knit pants on. Finn and Aerrow looked at her with a funny look when she passed by them in the hanger, like she was mad for wearing that to the beach. "Umm….Piper aren't you going to wear a swimsuit to the beach?" Finn asked because Aerrow couldn't seem to summon the courage to say anything.

"Who said I wasn't?" Piper asked as she gave the boys a look that made Aerrow's knees weak and made Finn look at her quizzically.

"But I don't see one!"

"Well duh Finn, it's underneath. You really think that I'm going to let you see me in my swimsuit before we get to the beach?"

"Well it couldn't hurt anything, besides Aerrow's already fading courage." Finn muttered more to himself then anyone else. Aerrow heard and hit him on the head while Piper turned around and gave then a quizzical look. In turn, they gave her a forced innocent look that was really hard to pull of for those two.

As soon as the team got to the beach they set up their stuff and the guys, minus Stork, decided that they were going to go surfing. Stork had stayed on the Condor mutter something about some deadly condition caused by salt water.

Piper watched the guys run off to the waves and then took off her outer clothes so that she just had her swimsuit on. Piper was wearing an emerald green bikini with a halter top. As she lay down to tan, Piper failed to miss the looks she was receiving from the men around her on the beach, but Aerrow didn't.

Aerrow was sitting on his surf board waiting for the perfect wave as he looked up toward the beach. What he saw made his blood broil and a low growl erupt from his throat. There was his girl, yes his girl, lying down on her towel with all of the men on the beach staring at her with lust in their eyes, or so he thought. How dare they even think about looking at my girl like that! Aerrow thought as he paddled back to shore.

"Hey were you going Aerrow?" Finn yelled after his red headed leader and one of his best friends. Finn then saw for himself were Aerrow was going as he noticed some random boy walking up to a dozing Piper. "Oh no, this isn't good" he said to Junko who also saw what was going on.

What Aerrow fail to notice was that those looks that the other men where giving her weren't of lust, and if Piper had seen them she would have ran off crying. She knew the looks well. They were the one's that the boys on Tropica always got before they insulted her or made fun of her. Aerrow on the other hand had never seen those looks only what they caused.

"Hey weirdo, go back to wherever you came from and spare us from looking at such an ugly no good girl like you!"

That was all Piper needed to hear to feel the tears well up in her eyes. Just ignore them; you don't need them to tell you you're pretty. You only need that from Aerrow…Only Aerrow. Piper sighed as the boys were still calling out insults to her.

Aerrow was walking up the beach to yell at the boys for looking at Piper when he heard the insults that were directed at her. He was about to help her when Harrier walked up and stood in front of Piper and started to yell at the boys.

"How dare you men insult such a beautiful woman that you don't even know!!! As men you should have more sensitivity to a woman's feelings." The boys ran off at these words.

Aerrow couldn't take it. First he was blind to what was happening to Piper, then instead of him coming to her rescue Harrier does! His blood was to the temperature that it could cause third degree burns. Harrier saw Aerrow marching up to were he was still standing by Piper and smiled with glee. "That dear Piper," he started as he pointed at Aerrow, "is where I take my leave."
