All right, so this is how I'm feeling tonight (Gotta love being around much bubbly people) and, being me, had to write something about it. So here it is. And if anyone things Henley is out of character, then you have never been around a mad woman before. I'm sure that every girl (and probably every guy) has felt this way at one time or another so yeah.

Also, I want to give a quick shout-out to Lupin Fan 1 and Miss Emeralds! Thanks for the reviews, guys, and I'm glad you're enjoying these little drabbles. I hope I can continue to write the characters the way you were enjoying them, especially Merritt since he is in this chapter quite a bit.

Leave Me Alone

It had started out as a normal good day. Three months had passed since they had first discovered the blueprints in that abandoned apartment. Three months of nonstop planning, traveling, and performing together as The Four Horsemen. They had little, if any, time off and were stuck with each other almost 24/7. Needless to say, sometimes, most of the times, it drove Henley Reeves crazy.

Being the only girl in a four man act had its advantages. She always got a bed to herself while the boys had to share. She always got the bathroom first, though that didn't stop Daniel from whining about it. And she could play the weak card and get out of carrying the heaviest bags, even though she was the farthest thing there was from weak.

But it had its disadvantages as well. Like today, for example. It had started as a good day. They had performed a show perfectly in front of a crowd of around one hundred people—their biggest crowd yet—and her and Daniel hadn't fought to bad. She should have known better than to expect it to remain that way for long. One minute she was happy and in a good mood, the next it was a complete 180.

To put it simply, Henley Reeves was ticked off and ready to kill.

She was sitting on her bed in the one room hotel room—the cheapest they could find. They weren't rich and famous yet—, listening to her iPod through her earphones, when Merritt walked in whistling tunelessly.

"Hello there, my dear lady." He said with a smile.

Henley just glared and turned her music up a notch, bobbing her head slightly to the music. Merritt looked at her oddly, but just shrugged, figuring his friend was just tired. Falling dramatically onto the other bed with a relieved sigh, the oldest Horseman reached down to take his shoes off.

"Daniel and Jack are on their way back," Merritt announced, completely missing the death glare Henley sent his way. "They stopped at the Dollar General to get some snacks." He paused and looked up at Henley. "You didn't want anything, did you? I can call them if you do."

"No." Henley replied curtly, barely able to hear Merritt over her music.

"Are you sure?" Merritt continued, stretching out on the bed and getting comfortable. "Those stories have everything know. Milk, cereal, candy, ice cream, microwaveable meals, candy." He turned his head to looked over at the slowly angering girl on the other bed. "You sure you don't want anything."

"I said no." Henley said through clenched teeth.

"Are you positive?" Merritt seemed not to see the edge that he was slowly pushing her off of. "Because no one is going out again later and I haven't forgotten Greenville!"

"Merritt." Henley said quietly.

"Yes, my dear." Merritt replied with a wink.

"Shut up." Henley ordered, voice slightly raised. Couldn't he see she would really rather be left alone tonight?

"Are you ok?" Merritt asked, worried at the way Henley was acting. "Are you getting sick?"

"I'm fine." Henley replied. "I just want to be left alone."

"Are you sure your fine?" Merritt knew he was mother-henning the woman, but he was her friend and what good friend wouldn't make absolutely sure that their friend was ok.

Henley just paused her music and took her earphones out, glaring at Merritt as she did.

"Henley?" Merritt asked, somewhat nervously. "Um, Henley, what are you doing with that book?"

Daniel and Jack had just reached the door to their room when they heard what sounded like a fight going on. The two glanced at each other before dropping their bags on the ground and quickly sliding the room card into the key. The door had no sooner opened then Merritt came flying out, slamming the door behind him. He was without his shoes and a bruise had already begun to form on the corner of his head.

"Whatever you do," he warned, panting slightly, leaning against the now closed doors, "Leave Henley alone."

Daniel and Jack took in Merritt's appearance and the sounds of frustrated screaming-into-a-pillow coming from inside the room.

"So," Jack said slowly, "Who wants to catch a movie?"
