Chapter 7 - Threatening Thirds

Yells and shouts were coming from the office of Quatre R. Winner. And angry voice bellowed at the group, nearly blasting the door off its hinges.

"NO! Koneko is NOT staying here more than the time of what she bargained for," A glare was sent to three girls. Haruka continued, "If she stays here more than a week, arghh…"

Quatre looked rather worried as his eyes kept flickering from Haruka's face to her kitana.

Wufei made a comment, resulting in three hard hits on the back of his head. "Baka…"

"Baka onna," he shot back.

Makoto glared. "You are one insufferable bast- Agh!! Baka!!!"

Usagi sat beside Duo, who looked as if he was sleeping rather than listening what was going on around him.

Two warriors, both wielding unsheathed kitana's scowled at the braided man, his snores becoming noticeable.

"Maxwell!" Wufei barked.

Duo jerked from his sleep, his head hitting the wall behind him in surprise.

"Baka…"

A very disgruntled looking group of girls exited Quatre Winner's office in a huff. Usagi's usual cheery blue eyes were glazing over in anger and annoyance. Makoto left the group angrily, letting out a long string curses. The door to Quatre's office opened once again, revealing a man in his early 20's, obviously peering at the group in search of someone.

Trowa turned his gaze to Usagi, who, like the other two women left glared at him. Haruka looked at him sulkingly, her fingers itching to grab the kitana she had hidden. Minako being usually a bouncy, cheery person, took a 180 degree turn in her personality. Her blue depths were shooting daggers at the long-banged man, her features leaving in their wake etches of fury. Trowa gulped.

"Uh… hi. Where's Makoto?" Three pairs of icy glares answered. "Uh… I'll go find her. Tell her that I'm looking for her if you see her." Icy glares met his response. With one last lingering glance, Trowa left.

Finally, Haruka exploded. "HOW DARE THEY!! THEY CAN'T MAKE YOU STAY HERE!!"

Minako sighed. Usagi's face contorted revealing more fury. The meatball-headed woman commented, "Damn well they can't!!!"

"I still can't believe that they're the Gundam pilots. You did see the Gundams… I guess it's only right for you to stay here. You can't tell anyone that way," Minako put in, Usagi's glaring gaze now leveled toward her.

"I'm. Not. Staying. Here." Usagi seethed in sentences. Then realization struck.

"ITS YOUR FAULT THAT WERE HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE! I TOLD YOU THAT THIS WAS A BAD IDEA! But NOO!!! YOU JUST HAD TO KEEP ON GUSHING ABOUT LIVING WITH SOME REALLY HOT GUYS!!!" Usagi paused, taking in deep breaths to keep herself from yelling and blowing the roof of the house off, not that she already had. "But no. You just HAD to wager us to a group of guys we hadn't even known for more than a few hours!!"

Minako's eyes were wide. She let out a small squeak, which sounded remotely like "s-s-sor-r-ry." Usagi scowled.

The two girls left, leaving behind a very shocked Haruka. The servants that had poked their heads out of doors, wondering what had happened wisely got to work when they saw the expression the last member in the hallway wore. Haruka whirled around, banging on Quatre's door until it opened, and met up at gun point from each of the remaining Gundam pilots.

"Winner!" She bellowed, ignoring the fact that she was a moving target for four professional assassins.

"Let's make a deal…"

-------------------

Makoto banged down another pot, the cooks in the kitchen flinching at the loud sound. She proceeded to mumble incoherent phrases under her breath. Trowa entered the room, his eyes set on the angry brunette currently peeling potatoes. Makoto was unaware that the peelings were flying away from the designated garbage can, and were currently rebounding off the walls and floors. Many of the skinned bits hit Trowa, obvious displeasure and annoyance on his face as he picked off the ones that had stuck to him.

"Makoto…"

Another pan was thrown down, creating a slight dent in the counter top. She turned around and faced him.

"What?" She growled out, throwing the peeled potatoes into a boiling pot of water.

Another pot was in the process of being slammed down into the counter. Trowa grabbed the girl's wrist, preventing some more damaged property. Makoto stiffened in his hold, yet felt awkwardly comfortable in his grasp. She tried to get loose, which only made Trowa's grip on her harder.

"What do you want?" She whispered, his arms still wrapped around her body. Trowa loosened his grip a little. Which was not much.

"Mako… I'm sorry about you having to stay here, but you knowing that were… well, what we are is putting millions of innocents at risk. Mako…" Trowa didn't finish, unaware of the pet name he had called her, and mainly because Makoto only redoubled her efforts to get free, still remaining in the vice-like grip of the apologizing man.

"No-" Makoto protested stubbornly, her green eyes sparkling with fury, which met Trowa's hidden and revealed eyes, their green eyes interlocking. Closer, closer… till their lips were millimeters apart. So close…

"TROWA!!! There you are!! Hee-man's looking for you! Something about the Gun- Oh hey Makoto!" Duo cheerily greeted, unaware of the closeness the two had felt. The two jerked away from each other in surprise, Makoto's face flushing a bit. Trowa and Makoto glared at the braided pilot.

Makoto hurried out of the kitchen.

----------------------

Wufei grumbled, his hands stuck in his pockets as he walked down the corridor. Doors lined the walls, though not many people seemed to be leaving or entering their rooms. The Chinese Gundam pilot heaved a sigh. Those onna's were going to live in the house, as long as the other onna with the kitana stayed as well. Wufei shuddered. He wouldn't dare say it, but he was a bit intimidated. I mean, she did block every bullet that Heero had sent her. And Heero was one in a million when it came to target practice. If an ONNA could block those shots… Wufei shook his head. Stupid onnas…

-----------------------

Heero slipped into the shadows, his eyes never leaving a figure. His Prussian blue eyes narrowed as Haruka seemed to be searching for something in her designated room. Her lean figure graced the room, making her feel in place. The room was in shades of gold and navy blue, her short sandy blonde hair and sky blue eyes mixing with the room easily. Somehow… somehow, he found her blue depths so entrancing he often found himself looking away from her. What was there not to like? She could even master the sword she had to have his bullets rebound back at him. A light smirk graced his lips as he exited the room.

-----------------------

"Usagi!" A pitiful whine continued to echo as Duo banged on Usagi's door. The entrance to her room remained shut as he had a sneaky suspicion that the door had been barred. He called her name out again, still receiving no answer.

Duo turned his head to find another door opening, the user of the room in obvious annoyance. Minako emerged, taking with her a full-fledged glare-and-stare. She raised an eyebrow in annoyance and looked quite amused, in fact. He turned his hopes to her.

"Minako…" He started begging. A softer look appeared in Minako's eyes as she considered what to do.

Smiling softly, she said, "Alright… what is it?" But then looked annoyed at herself. "Actually, strike that comment. I know what's going on. It's been happening the last half hour." Minako mumbled, but Duo caught wind of it. He flushed.

"Okay, Usagi's obviously not going to let me talk to her… what can I do? I've asked her out, but we still have to go on a date…" Duo trailed off.

But Minako's eyes had that glaze that said, 'You-just-gave-me-a-great-idea-that-will-morally-scar-you!' look. Indigo eyes looked at her in confusion.

"What's with the look?"

Minako rolled her eyes. "You can bring her to dinner. You can take her out on that date you were meaning to do with her!" Minako gushed out, her eyes widening. Oh, she could see it now. The wedding would take place at the grandest cathedral… But Minako was jolted out of her thoughts as Duo gave her a hard bear hug.

"Oh thanks Minako! This is great! Why didn't I think of it before…?" And Duo hurried to his room to make arrangements. Minako already had thoughts on why he hadn't thought of it.

Minako looked down in the direction Duo had gone. Makoto appeared, rather red actually. Minako's face once again supported an arched eyebrow.

"What happened?"

"Uh… nothing."

"Don't lie to me! I can see when love is in the air!" Minako said happily, putting more emphasis on the 'love.' Makoto sweatdropped.

"Uh, yeah."

"So who is it? It better not be Quatre because he's mine…" Minako started, sending Makoto a sharp glance.

"No, it's not Quatre. It's…"

"Nooo!! Don't tell me. I want to find out on myself… Heero? Nah, no… well, gunny. Wufei… swordy... and has to have a slap every time he encounters a woman... And Quatre and Duo seem to be the only sane ones in the group. But Quatre's mine. And Duo is Usagi's… mind you they're not really talking right now. So… TROWA?!" Minako exclaimed, obviously surprised.

Makoto flushed. Minako seemed to be on the verge of tears.

"How come every one around be is getting together and I'm living with a bunch of hot guys, and I STILL don't have a boyfriend?!"

Everyone in the hallway laughed. A slight giggle was heard from Usagi's room.
