The next morning, she woke up, and jumped triumphantly out of bed, "Finally!"

Shadow had evidently left and she felt kind of stupid, but walked downstairs anyways, and started making eggs. She was pouring catsup on them, when Shadow popped up. She yelped and squirted catsup all over the counter.

"Oops," she blushed, pulling out a rag, "You scared me."

"What're you doing?" he asked.

"Making breakfast?" she stuttered, blushing deeply.

"Why are you out of bed?"

"Um..you told me last night that if I went to bed I could get up in the morning," she said, starting to eat the eggs.

He scowled, "I didn't mean that."

She swallowed, "Well you could've told me that."

Goosebumps started to rise on her arms, "You need to get back in bed."

"Can I eat first?" she asked.

"You can eat in bed."

She groaned, "No way. I'll eat down here."

Suddenly she was slung over his shoulder, "Hey!"

He took her up to her room and forced her into bed, "Stay here."

She glared at him, "I was trying to eat that!"

He ignored her, went downstairs, and came back with the eggs, "Here."

"I don't want them," she said stubbornly.

"Fine," he snapped and went back downstairs.

She tried to calm the butterflies that were floating around in her stomach, What is going on with me?

Shadow walked back in, "Stay here," he instructed.

"Why?" she groaned.

"Because we don't know what they did to you," he explained angrily.

She winced, "Don't talk about that."

"What, G.U.N?"

Tears stung her eyes and she looked away. He sighed, but she ignored him and snuggled closer to the pillow.

"Look..." he began.

"Just stop!" she snapped, "I don't care!" she suddenly realized what she was doing and turned the other way.

"Fine," he growled, walking out of the room.

Way to go genius, she thought angrily, setting her laptop on her lap. She pulled the screen up and began to type, letting her thoughts out with the thrum of keys. Suddenly she realized that he wasn't there, and she climbed out of the bed. She stretched and walked around the room to wake her legs up.

Suddenly Shadow walked back in and she jumped, "Get back in bed," he growled.

She stood her ground, but felt the chills racing up her spine and the butterflies practically flying out of her throat, "I don't want to."

He picked her up and put her back on the bed, "Stay."

She glared at nothing, "I want to get out of bed. Why can't I walk around my own room?"

"You're not supposed to get up," he growled.

"I don't care!"

"Well I do!" he snapped, then looked away.

He cares! she thought, looking at him oddly, "You...care?"

"I'll be back in a minute," he said walking out.

She watched him go and her gaze lingered at where he'd been standing, He cares!

Aw...Shadow! Teehee. Read next chapter and review please! ~tfflv
