Stork had finally gotten out of the bath and was walking back to his room, trying to think of a way to talk to Finn about his current "situation." 'This isn't going to be easy.' Stork thought. He had never really been in a relationship with anyone before much less actually liked someone enough to even consider it.

Stork sighed and ran a hand through his wet hair before entering his room. The Merb was preparing to get re-dressed in his uniform until a knock on his door got his attention. He gave an annoyed huff and went to answer it. "Who is it?" he decided to ask before opening up to anyone. "C'mon Stork it's me open up." Finn's voice answered from the other end.

"Can I help you?" Stork asked when he opened the door. Finn's face heated up and a light pink blush came to his cheeks, the pilot was naked with only a towel around his waist to cover himself. Stork had tried to look annoyed but when he saw the flushed look on the blonde's face, his stare softened a bit.

Finn mentally slapped himself when he realized that he had been eying Stork like a horny schoolgirl. "Oh..uh..I-I just wanted to see how you were doing." Finn finally answered. "As you can see I'm doing fine, all I want right now is some quiet so that I can get dressed and to get back to steering the Condor." Stork replied.

"Oh, yeah no problem buddy! But can we talk later y'know when no one's around?" Finn asked with a hopeful look in his eyes. The Merb simply nodded before closing the door. Finn's face broke out into a huge grin and he silently cheered for himself. Aerrow was the first to see the blonde on his way back to the helm.

"So I guess he said yes?" Aerrow asked Finn. "Am I really that obvious?" Finn asked back. Aerrow gave a small laugh and patted the sharpshooter on the back. "I'm sure that Junko and Piper were surprised." Aerrow said. "Uhhh yeah about that.....I still haven't really told either of them." Finn said, while scratching the back of his head.

The redhead looked a little confused, he didn't know why Finn hadn't told the other members of the squadron. "Well I'm planning on telling them, it's just Junko might accidentally blab to Stork before I get a chance to talk to him and Piper is......" Finn trailed off. "Piper is?" Aerrow tried to continue for him. "Piper seems like she wouldn't be too happy about relationships within the squad." Finn said.

"I understand, just tell them when you're ready." Aerrow said. "Thanks, I'm gonna go make sure my skimmer is fixed before Stork is ready to take off." Finn said, continuing down the hall to the bridge. Almost as soon as Finn left, Stork came out of his room and began to head for the helm. Aerrow turned around and gave a small wave to the Merb behind him.

"So are we ready to take off Stork?" Aerrow asked once the pilot had caught up to him. "Yeah the damage to the Condor is only minimal now, but if they manage to hit an engine......I just hope we survive the descent to the wastelands." Stork said, while his eye twitched. "We'll be fine." Aerrow said as the door opened and the two entered the helm.

Junko looked up and gave one of his usual bright smiles to the Merb before saying "Hey Stork, glad to see you're finally awake!" Stork gave a small nod in his direction to acknowledge that he had heard the Wallop and headed straight for the Condor's controls and released the grappling hooks that were holding the airship to the mountain.

Before leaving Stork took one last look behind him and noticed they were missing someone. "Uhhhh....Finn is still on the ship right?" Stork asked. "He's checking his skimmer out, don't worry we wouldn't leave Finn behind." Aerrow answered. The pilot gave a small satisfied smile and with that, the Condor once again took to the skies.

There was a long period of silence on the ship, which for the Storm Hawks, was pretty rare, but for Stork it was like a blessing. For once he could finally think clearly, that is until a hand grabbed his shoulder from behind. Stork gave a shriek and turned around to see the blonde sharpshooter trying not to laugh.

"How many times have I told you not to do that to me?! Do all of you WANT me to have a heart attack?!" the Merb said angrily to the boy in front of him. "Sorry dude, Aerrow just wanted me to tell you to head to Terra Norde we got a distress call from the Blizzarians." "Yeah no problem." Stork replied, regaining his breath and turning around once again to steer the ship.

He was about to turn the Condor in the direction Norde was in until he felt an arm drape around his shoulder. Finn was suddenly next to him and in a whisper said "I really am sorry that I scared you so bad, don't worry I'll make it up to you later." he gave a wink to the pilot and went to sit with the other members of the squad. Stork felt his lips tug into a small smile, maybe today wouldn't be so bad after all.

YES! All done! I will definitely get the next chapter out faster school is over and the only thing standing in the way of me and this fic is the Sims 3. R&R everyone!
