Chapter two, hope you like it. thanks for the reveiws!!
An alarm sounded, breaking the silence in KONG. Noodle sat up in bed, letting the thick comforter fall off her. She reached over and silenced her alarm clock. She stretched her arms and let out a yawn.
It had been seven years since Noodle came to them. She was a little apprehensive about everything at first, but she grew to love their zombie-infested home and all it's inhabitants. Even Murdoc. Over the years, Noodle's English had improved very well, though she still had that cute Japanese accent. She had become very close with 2-D, spending most of time tagging along with him. Noodle watched as 2-D went through one girlfriend after another. She didn't know why, but it irritated her everytime he brought one of his girls around. But why should she care? It's not like she liked him or anything, right?
Noodle shook her head and yawned again. She got out of bed and trudged into her bathroom,taking a quick shower to wake her up and then brushed her teeth. She brushed out her stick-straight hair and then ruffled it, not liking the way it looked brushed out flat. Getting dressed was the tricky part, Noodle didnt have any idea about fashion sense. Most of the time, her clothes clashed horribly. She dug through her closet, emerging with a pair of black capris and black tank top she had custom made. It said 'DARE' across the front in Kenji.
After dressing she went out in to the hall, calling the lift. hen it arrived, she clambered in, resting against the wall. She could already smell breakfast, and whatever it was smelled delicious. She discovered, upon entering the kitchen, that it was french toast. "Mornin' Noodle girl" Russel said as she sat down. "The others arent up yet?" she asked, knowing very well that Murdoc and 2-D liked their sleep. "Not yet" he told her as he set a plate in front of her, adding a few slices of french toast to it.
Noodle sighed and added some butter and syrup to her breakfast before eating it. She was halfway done when 2-D walked into the kitchen, she perked up a bit. "Good morning 2-D," she said with a smile. 2-D felt that strange fluttering feeling in his midsection. He smiled back and stuttered out a 'good morning' before turning around and pretending to dig around in the fridge so the two of them wouldn't see the deep crimson that was creeping down his neck and across his cheeks. Noodle quickly finished up and set her plate in the sink then skipped off towards the living room humming 'Dirty Harry' to herself. 2-D watched her go, he felt a little sad, but then he remembered it was movie night. They were showing old horror flicks on one of their favorite channels and 2-D and Noodle had planned this day for weeks. He smiled, this was going to be one fun night.
Later in the afternoon, Noodle knocked on 2-D's door. Afew second passed as she anxiously shuffled her feet around, then, finally, a very sleepy looking 2-D aswered the door. Half of her wanted to bolt, but her feet felt like they were glued to the ground. "H-hey, can I come in?" She didn't understand, she had never felt this awkward or nervous around 2-D before. "Yea, sure, come in" he said. She walked in and flopped down on his bed. She stared at the ceiling for awhile, following the circular pattern it made. 2-D sat down next to her on the bed.
"Whatcha thinkin' bout, love?" he asked, watching the static lines that were makng their way up the tv screen. "2-D-san, how can you tell if you love someone?" she asked, rolling over onto her stomach and studying 2-D's face. 2-D felt his face grow hot, good thing the lights were off, if not, he thought Noodle might've noticed. "Well, I don' really know," he said. "But, didn't you love Paula? That women in the pictures?" 2-D shrugged,"I dunno, we were really close. I guess I kind of loved 'er, ya know?" Noodle shook her head and sighed.
"I think I love this guy, but I'm not quite sure," she said, "But, I've known him for a while and I just started to feel this way about him" 2-D's heart skipped a beat, could she be talking about him? "Well, maybe you should just tell 'im how ya feel, an' if he doesnt have feelin's for ya, well, there's other fish in the sea." A confused look crossed Noodle's face, "I will tell him. Not now, though. Later.." she rolled onto her side and looked around 2-D's room. It was a lot cleaner than we she had first arrived at KONG. His dirty clothes were piled into one corner around and overstuffed hamper, there weren't as many empty boxes and beer cans on the floor, but his bed was still messy. Noodle had never once seen his bed made. What Noodle loved most, though, was the way his pillows smelled. Like his butterscotch soap and his cologne.
She wasn't sure at what point she drifted off to sleep, but the next thing she knew, 2-D was nudging her shoulder in an attempt to wake her up. "C'mon love, we're gonna miss the movies," he said, giving her a playful smile. Noodle sat up, rubbing the sleep from her eyes, "Sorry 2-D-san, I didn't mean to f-f-fall asleep" she yawned. "S'okay, love" They left 2-D's room and headed up to the kitchen. Russel was making a late night snack, well, if you could call a plate of fried chicken and snack. 2-D was heating up some pop-corn in the microwave, Noodle could smell the butter and it was making her mouth water. She grabbed some sodas from the fridge and a bag of potato chips and headed into the living room. 2-D joined a few minutes later, turning the television on and taking a seat next to Noodle on the couch.
Two and a half hours later, Noodle had fallen asleep. The third movie, a zombie flick, was halfway over. 2-D picked up and carried her up to her room, taking the stairs as the lift was far too noisy. He set her down in her bed and covered her up, kissing her cheek. She looked so pretty, half of her face was lit up from the moonlight shining in through her window. 2-D walked to the doorway, looked back at her sleeping figure, and headed back downstairs.
Sorry, it's a bit shorter than I expected. And yes, I'm not the world's best speller, but hey, I try xD
