"5:00 in the morning, this is nuts!!!" Melody mumbled as she tried to straighten the bow in baby Vivian's hair as Jason paced their living room impatiently. "Hurry up, Melody, we have to get over to Duo and Lila's. That's the safest place for us to be." He muttered, picking up their suitcases and taking them to the truck. "Hold on, Jason!" She yelled out the door as she scooped up baby Vivian and her stuff and ran out the door.
Lila had just woken up and rolled over to watch her lover sleep. His chestnut hair was frizzed out, as it always was in the morning, his wide, violet eyes where closed as he slept peacefully. His eye-lashes fluttered on his blush-stained cheeks. She tried to resist the urge to kiss the sweet boy that had won her heart during the war, but she couldn't. He then woke to the feeling of her moist lips on his. "Whoa, she must've had a good-night sleep." He thought, as her kiss became more passionate. He gave in to the seductress, and for the first time for 3 months, they made love. When they were through, he drifted into a daydream, he looked back on the wonderful love-life they had. But lately, she was so tense, and pre-occupied by the baby, they never got to get the action they used to. Then, Duo had an idea. "We'll go for a 'trip'." he thought, as he looked at the sleeping beauty. "She'll love me for this!" He smiled, and kissed her sweaty-brow.
Jason knocked on the huge, oak door when they arrived at Duo and Lila's house at 8:30, they arrived so late because Melody insisted that they pack more clothes and that they stop at the closest fast-food joint so Lila wouldn't have to cook when she woke up. Duo opened the door, groggily welcomed them and apologized for his appearance. His hair was loose and tangled, he was only in a pair of cut-off jogging pants, and there where scratches still bleeding on his back. Melody blushed and Jason gave him the thumbs-up sign, Duo blushed a bit, and then Lila cam out. Her night-shirt was ripped, her hair was worse than Duo's, and she had a perverse grin on her face. "Lila!" Melody blushed as Duo showed Jason the bloody scratches on his back. "What? I can't help it that I have long nails." She smiled and kissed Duo. "Well, lets get Deathsythe tuned up, Jason." Duo said, pulling a shirt on. They put Vivian into Kaitlen's room. "Well, seems somebody got some action." Melody said, as she brushed her sisters hair and began to braid it. "Shut up!" "Hehe, so, I guess you'll be back to your cheery self now, huh?" Melody asked as she began braiding "Shush, I rolled over to watch him sleep, and it turned into...well, you know." Lila blushed, as she handed Mel a hair-tie. "Well, so that's what we heard this morning." Trowa asked as he and Quatre stepped out of their room. "Maybe...maybe not. You'll never know." Lila smiled and finished telling Melody why Quatre, Trowa, Heero and Wufie where there. "Oh, I see now." Melody said, then, Heero stepped out of the darkened hallway, and motioned for Lila. "Lila, come here, I need to talk to you. In private." Lila quivered mentally, there was something about Heero that made her suspicious, but she followed him back to his and Wufie's room, without question. As soon as they heard the door close, Wufie came out to greet Melody. "I hope Heero doesn't do anything to her." Melody thought as she stared at the oak door, which hid what was happening within the room.
