Piper yawned noisily as she strode to the kitchen, her hair still wet from her morning shower.
She opened the door.
The room was empty.
Except for one person.
"Hi, Aerrow," she mumbled.
He seemed very grave.
"Piper, I have a question." He looked her in the eyes.
"Shoot," she said, smiling.
He drew himself closer, so that they were almost touching.
Her heart fluttered.
"Piper, will you..." He paused, as if looking for the right words. "Will you go out with me?"
Her mouth flopped open. Say yes, say yes...She so wanted to say yes. Her tongue was poised, ready to form the letters, when...
"HA HA HA!"
Finn and Junko jumped out from behind the fridge. "You shoulda seen your...your face...HA!"
"Happy April Fool's Day, Piper," Aerrow said, chuckling. He slipped his arm around her shoulders. She forced a grin.
How could she have forgotten?
He smiled broadly at her.
If only he knew.
