Fortunate Or Unfortunate

Part 03

Elesis slumped on the pale purple couch in Add's bedroom. She sighed tiredly from the traveling and from the fact that she actually lost at rock paper scissors. She swore she had never hated rock this much in her entire life. Luckily, Velder and Elder are quite close in distance so it only took them 3 hours of traveling. Maybe, she just felt exhausted because she had to live with this man for half a month. The same guy who said that she lacked so much sex-appeal that he couldn't tell whether she was a girl or guy.

"So, where is the guest's bedroom?" She turned to ask Raven.

"What are you talking about?" Rena cheerily answered for Raven, who only stayed silent like it had nothing to do with him. "You two will be sharing the same bedroom. That's the whole point."

Elesis's jaw dropped. They couldn't be serious, could they? As she was arguing why this idea wouldn't work, Rena and Raven just waved her goodbye and closed the door, ending the argument before it could even begin.

Outside...

"Thank you for coming up with this." Raven bowed to show his gratitude. "I wouldn't have known what to do in that situation if you hadn't been there. But do you think it's a good idea?"

Rena twirled the end of her ponytail, looked towards the room that was filled with the sound of the two bickering. She came up with the idea just to drag out the time and hoped that it would work, but at this rate, she wasn't sure if she made the right choice or not.

"Don't know." She looked at Raven only to find that he looked rather disappointed. "Maybe the two of us can work this out? You know, make them fall for each other. We can try."

"Alright." At least she tried, he gave her an assuring smile. "Pleasure to be working with you Miss Rena."

"Likewise, Mister Raven." She shook his hand.

Raven felt that he was way too comfortable with her. Usually, he put up his guard with everyone that he just met, but she had him felt like he could trust her. He wondered if it was Elves' charm or she just resembled someone closed to him. She was definitely more cheery, more tomboy-ish and feistier than her, but the face when she smiled, he thought he could see his Seris right in front of him. He shook this head slightly to get rid of the thought, there was no way he could see her in another woman, or he convinced himself.

"What's wrong?"

"Oh, no, nothing at all."

Back in Add's room...

Add rubbed his forehead in annoyance and mentally reminded himself to install a sound-proof barrier to his dynamos. Currently, it seemed like he would need it...a lot.

"I don't care if I have to sleep on the floor! There's no way I'm gonna share a bed with you!" Elesis growled.

"Then just do so!" Add hissed under his breath.

"Prick!"

"Cavewoman!"

"Stalker!"

"Gorilla!"

The two continuously threw insults at each other and all of that boiled down to physical violence. They didn't know themselves how long had they been doing this, punching the hell out of each other. Elesis couldn't remember the last time she got in a fight with anyone beside Elsword and she was the first one that Add got physically violent with. After fifteen minutes, the last one standing was Elesis, Add wasn't much of a fighter anyway since he hardly ever got into one. She proudly declared with hands on her hips.

"I'm taking the bed tonight."

"What?! Since when was that rule established?" Add hissed, while wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, the spot where Elesis scratched him with her feline claws.
