"...elos...ake...up..." Zelos groaned and pretended he didn't hear anything. It was still early. Why did he have to wake up anyways? He pulled the blanket over his head. "Wake up." Something pulled the blanket off and shook him. "Mmmrmmppphh..." He still refused to get out of bed. "Go away..." he mumbled. Who the hell was trying to get him to wake up anyways? He opened his eyes a crack. Shihna?

He opened them a bit more. What was she doing here? He had to still be dreaming. Wasn't Shihna supposed to be in Mizuho? He closed his eyes again. No way. He snuggled up in his blanket again. "Zelos...get up." It sounded like Shihna...exactly like Shihna. He wondered if he should believe that she was actually there or not.

He felt something soft hitting him in the head. "Hmmrph?" Apparently "Shihna" picked up one of his pillows and whacked him with it. "Jeez! Wake up already!" Zelos decided to open his eyes again. "Hmmm...Shihna?" he asked, groggily. "Yes, you idiot! Now wake up!" She whacked him with the pillow again. "But it's so early..."

"It's not that early!" Zelos turned his head. "I went to sleep really late last night," he whined. "That was your fault," Shihna said, trying to pull the blanket away from Zelos. "Now get up!" Zelos rolled over and grabbed Shihna's arm. "Mmrph..." He pulled her onto the bed. "What are you doing here, anyways?" Zelos asked, laying his head down right under Shihna's chest. "I-I just came over here after I had a meeting with the King and I just...just...get off of me!" She pushed him off of her. "Hmmm...Let me sleep for an hour or so and I'll eat breakfast with you," Zelos mumbled. "It's only seven in the morning after all..." Shihna nodded and started to get off the bed, but Zelos held her down. "Stay here...you want to sleep too, don't you? You probably didn't get enough sleep last night." How did he know that?...She looked down at him, curled up right next to her. She regretted trying to get him to wake up. "Move over," she said, softly. "Sure thing, hunny." Zelos made more room for Shihna. "Sorry..." Shihna said, moving closer to Zelos. "For what?..."

"I came here just to wake you up...and just because I had nothing to do," Shihna murmured. "Don't worry about it...I'm always doing that to you," Zelos said, pulling the blanket to cover Shihna. "Now, sleep..." Shihna nodded and in a few minutes both of them were fast asleep.

"Good morning, princess." Shihna opened her eyes to find herself in Zelos' room, sunshine streaming through the window. And right next to her was...She screamed. Zelos watched her in amusement as Shihna fell off the bed in panic. "What am I doing here?!" She demanded. "Hmm? You don't remember?" Zelos asked, looking down at Shihna, who was getting more and more panicky every second. Then she remembered...that morning. Zelos. Told him to wake up. Went to sleep. In his bed. "We didn't...do anything, right?" she asked, fearing the worst. "Hmm...maybe. It was fun," Zelos said cheerfully. "You're kidding, right?!" Shihna jumped back onto the bed. "Right?!" Zelos studied Shihna's face, wondering if he should play around with her some more. "Well, it depends what you mean by doing something," he said. "Well, uhh...we didn't do that, did we?"

"Shihna, hunny. You still have your clothes on," Zelos pointed out. Shihna looked down. She did. "So we didn't..." Zelos grinned. Or did they? Shihna glared at him. "We didn't do anything, right?" Zelos continued smiling. "Maybe..." Shihna grabbed him. "There's no way we could've...right?" Zelos just continued to let Shihna think what she wanted. "You...idiot!"

"Whoa! Wait!" Zelos was suddenly thrown to the floor. "You stupid...Grr!" Shihna ran out of the room. Zelos sighed. "Oh well..." She wouldn't stay mad for that long. He smiled. Of course not.
