This and the one before would have been up a couple of days ago if it wasn't for computer troubles. Sorry.

"Please?"

"No."

"Please?"

"No."

"Please?"

"Plllleeeeaaaasssseeee?"

"Noooooooooooooooo."

"PLEASE?"

"NO!"

"Please?"

"No."

"What the hell are you two up to?" Wolf asked brusquely as he and Snake walked through the door. (Well, actually, as they walked through the door frame. Trying to walk through a door its self is never a good idea. Unless you are a ghost…)

Eagle was standing in the middle of the living, room, his arms stretched out wide on either side of him. Alex was sitting on the sofa in front of him, reading up on different religious views on cloning from a textbook for and R.E exam.

"Eagle dropped his arms down to his side as their appeared, then lifted one up to point at Alex. "He won't give me a hug!" He pouted.

"Please?" He repeated for the hundredth time. Alex didn't even look up; he simply replied, once again, "No."

"See!" Eagle cried in despair.

Wolf stared at him as though he had gone insane. Which he had done. A long, long time ago.

Snake though pointed a finger towards Eagle in the same was as Eagle had just been pointing at Alex. "Pedophile!" He said in a sing-song voice, before turning and leaving the room without another word.

Wolf stayed for a few more seconds and sighed, "Its sad because its true.", Before also leaving.

"Hey….I didn't mean it like that!" Eagle called after them, but they ignored him.

So he turned back to Alex.

"Please?"

"No."

"Please?"

"No."

"Ple…"

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Eagle gave up.

"Well then…"

"No."

"Hey, I was just asking…"

"No."

"Could you…"

"No."

"…pass the TV remote?"

"No."

"But…"

"NO! Get it yourself…"

"No one loves me…"

"True."

For some reason the idea of a rather unhinged Eagle simply asking for a hug amused me. Especially when Alex didn't seem the particularly huggy type…

By the way, I suspect the reason Fox wasn't there was because Alex and Wolf probably got him landed in hospital during their 'father, son' bonding beat-up-Fox-game. Isn't that sweet?

*Is knocked briefly unconscious by a remote control flying through they air*

Me: Ow…hey, Eagle, I found the remote control! I think Alex was sitting on it all along…

Eagle: Yay! Will you give me a hug…please?

Me: I don't do hugs…

Eagle: But you're a girl!

Me: Soooo…..?

Eagle: Please?

Me: No

Eagle: *Bursts into tears* Nobody loves me!

Me: Calm down, I'm sure there's someone out there somewhere who will give you a hug…right?...
