Author's Notes: DAMN YOU DARKANGEL AND TOMANAIYA!!!!!
::huffs and puffs:: Now you've got *me* writing one!
I blame this 100% on Lady DarkAngel and Lady Tomanaiya
for their fic "Shiny..." It's ALL your fault!
::giggles:: thank you for the inspiration!
Five pilots watched in hidden amusement as one young lady tore her entire bedroom apart. Papers, clothes, and the occasional stuffed animal flew through the air with the greatest of ease, one wooden hobby horse bonking Duo squarely between the eyes. "Where is it where is it where is it?" Relena Darlian demanded as she plowed through the room.
"Um, Miss Relena," Quatre started, trying to be diplomatic and find out exactly what was agitating the young lady, but was suddenly finding himself ducking an errant rubber ducky before suffering the same fate as Maxwell.
Not that any of them were happy being there; after all, what teenage boy ever felt comfortable in a pink frou-frou girly bedroom? But they were there for a reason, as they were playing her bodyguards until she could be removed to someplace a little safer. They were planning on taking the floor by the doorway, and let her sleep in her own bed, but here it was half past midnight and nobody had gotten a wink of sleep because Relena was still looking for "it." Trouble was, nobody knew what "it" was, except her, and she was too distracted to tell them.
Wufei tried this time. "Perhaps if we knew what to look for we could help you?"
"No! Absolutely not," the girl whimpered. "I don't need a bunch of *boys* going through my unmentionables looking for my teddy bear!" With that, she slung said unmentionables out of her top drawer, headless that her training bra was now adorning Trowa's head.
Heavyarms' pilot yelped and swatted the thing off of him as if it were a killer bee, then sank down on his bedroll and pouted. "I'd like to go to sleep," he announced to nobody in particular.
"Sleep?" Duo asked, half-dozing on his feet. "What's sleep? Do they sleep on this planet?" When her slip landed gracefully over his head he ignored it, taking advantage of the brief darkness to take a nap. Standing up.
"Aaarrrrrrggggghhhh!" the girl screamed, ending his nap abruptly. The others winced. She was a nice girl but *Lord* could she hit the high notes. Relena collapsed into a heap of sobbing braids on the floor, her sniffles promising a sleepless night.
The pilots all looked between each other, wishing desperately for a solution. "Miss Relena? Are you all right?" Quatre asked tentatively.
"No! I'm not! That was a present from my father, right before he... he was..." She sniffled, and the boys all winced again. A crying female was a distressful situation for all of them. Relena caught her breath and looked up directly at Heero with those big, beautiful, tear-filled blue eyes, sniffled once delicately, and said, "I miss my teddy bear. Will you sleep with me?"
Heero looked like someone had bashed him on the back of the head with a rolling pin.
"Uh........."
"Please?" Relena murmured, wiping a teardrop from her cheek. "I'll never get to sleep without my teddy otherwise. I need something to cuddle."
"Uh......."
"*Never* get to sleep?" Duo asked. He exchanged looks with the other three pilots and bit his lip. And they had a busy day ahead of them tomorrow, too....
"That's right, *never* get to sleep. I can't sleep without something warm to cuddle up to." She blinked those perfect lashes at Duo.
"Uh......." said Heero Yuy.
"'Scuze us, Miss Relena, we need to have a talk with Mr. Yuy." Duo and Quatre grabbed one arm, Trowa and Wufei the other, and together they dragged him into a corner. "For God's sake," Trowa hissed, "sleep in the girl's bed, all right?"
"Trowa!" Heero yelped, looking mortified. "I can't sleep with her, she's a girl!"
"I don't care if she's Lassie's first cousin," Quatre snarled, "get her the hell to sleep!"
"But... but..."
"Heero," Wufei said in a deadly calm voice, "if you do not play substitute bear for her, I will make you play substitute dart board for *me.* Do we understand each other."
Heero whined and whimpered but in the end he gave up and crawled into her perfumed pink canopied bed, staring up at the ceiling while Relena promptly attached herself to his side and stuck her cold feed on his leg. "Where did I go wrong?" he asked nobody.
"SHUT UP!" four masculine voices echoed through the room.
And what was worse, Relena was a sleep kicker.
