Closer To Heaven

"The Day Off"

    Rin and Taylor tried to get Elizabeth up from her bed. Elizabeth just lied under the covers. "Leave me alone! Why won't the light just go away?! Somebody please just kill meeee." Elizabeth said as she squirmed around in her bed. Rin and Taylor started to tickle her. Elizabeth started to flail around and giggle until she started to laugh really loud. When the covers were off, Rin and Taylor quickly grabbed her and dragged her out of the barracks. "Dammit! Let me go! I am ordering you! That is an order!" She yelled. Rin and Taylor looked at each other and smiled. "Shower time!" They both yelled simultaneously.

    When they reached the shower rooms, they pulled off Elizabeth's clothes. Elizabeth yelled at them but they didn't listen. They then pushed her in one of the showers and turned on the warm water. Rin pulled a little hose out and sprayed Elizabeth with ice-cold water when she tried to escape. Elizabeth squealed and cursed at them, but they only laughed. Once they were done with the showers, they quickly got dressed and threw Elizabeth in a car. Elizabeth sat alone in the back complaining the whole way to the town. "Argh! I don't want to have a stupid "girl's day out"! This was the first day off I had in a real long time and you guys had to come along and ruin it!" She pouted.  Elizabeth complained the whole car ride until they finally reached their destination. The mall. "The mall? Are you serious? I'm not in the mood for this." Elizabeth pouted again. Rin and Taylor smiled and grabbed her by the arms and pulled her in with them. The mall was packed with people and huge too. There was all kinds of cool stores to check out. Rin and Taylor found the clothes section and started to check out fancy clothing. Elizabeth sat in a chair not wanting to buy anything. Rin pulled out a dress and held it against Elizabeth. She then dragged Elizabeth to the dressing rooms. For Elizabeth, the torture began to grow worse. But, for Rin and Taylor, the fun had begun.

    Meanwhile...

    Edward and Lloyd decided to explore the town also. They searched and searched but couldn't really find anything. They then came across the mall and decided to go in and look around. Edward found some cool clothes and decided to take the to the dressing room and try them on. Lloyd looked at other clothes too. Edward found an empty dressing room and ended up hearing Elizabeth and Rin on the other side. He thought for a moment but didn't want to, not now at least. But, he had an idea. He quickly walked out of the dressing room and put the clothes back. He found Lloyd and quickly grabbed him and pulled him outside in an alleyway. "Jeez, Ed! Quit pulling on me!" Lloyd growled. "Stay here for a sec." Edward commanded. Edward then walked off to a little pastry shop. He bought a cake and quickly wrote something on it with icing. He then ran back to Lloyd. "Here take this!" He ordered. Lloyd looked at the cake in confusion. It read: I love you! From, Lloyd. Lloyd looked at Edward. "What the hell is this?" He asked. Edward looked at him. "I know that you're in love with the captain. You can't fool me." He said with a smirk. "What?! I don't love her!" Lloyd blushed. Edward told Lloyd to wait for him, he then ran off. Lloyd stood in confusion holding the cake. 

    The three girls were done trying on new clothes when suddenly Edward ran up to them. They were surprised that he was there. "Guys! You have to follow me! I have a surprise for you!" Edward commanded. He ran off before they could say anything. They then followed him. Edward ran around the corner and got behind Lloyd. "What are you doing?" He asked. "Just go! Before they come around the corner!" Edward ordered. Lloyd denied him and Edward ended up shoving him forward. Lloyd flew forward right into the three girls. The cake flew out of his hands and he fell on the ground. He quickly got up and saw where the cake landed. It landed right on top of Elizabeth's shirt. Elizabeth looked down and wiped the bits and pieces off. "Edward... Lloyd..." She growled. Lloyd and Edward gulped. Elizabeth yelled at them and chased after them through the alleys and streets. "We're terribly sorry, captain! It won't happen again! We promise! We're sorry! We're sorry! We're sorry!" They both pleaded loudly. Edward and Lloyd ran like hell, afraid of looking back at the enraged captain. They quickly cut through an alleyway and stopped at an abandoned pool. They breathed heavily, trying to catch their breath. Then, out of nowhere, Elizabeth busted through a wooden wall and pounced for the two men. Edward evaded just in time, but Lloyd was unlucky. She tackled Lloyd and they both ended up falling in the pool. Elizabeth lashed at Lloyd before Rin and Taylor stopped her. "Elizabeth! Wait! There was a note with the cake!" Taylor yelled. Elizabeth stopped and decided to get out of the pool. She took the note and looked at it. She turned around yelled at Lloyd for being so stupid. Lloyd quickly looked away and blushed. Rin, Taylor, and Edward were giggling. Elizabeth looked at them with confusion. She looked down at her self. Her white shirt was now see-through. Elizabeth blushed and quickly covered herself. "You guys are pervs!" She yelled. Elizabeth walked off without another word. Lloyd quickly followed.

    When Lloyd caught up with Elizabeth, he found her sitting in a corner crying. Lloyd kneeled beside her and covered her with his other shirt. "What do you want?" She sniffed. "I didn't mean for this to happen. Everything went by so fast and you got so angry. I'm sorry, we're sorry." Lloyd said. Elizabeth looked at him then covered her face again. "You shouldn't love me. It'll never work. Besides, I only like you as a friend." She replied. Lloyd smiled. "Actually, that note and cake was stupid. Edward thought I loved you for some reason and he bought the cake and wrote the note. I mean, you're cute but I don't love you. You're my friend too and my captain." Lloyd confessed. Elizabeth wiped her tears away and decided to get up. The others quickly found them. Elizabeth saw Edward and slapped him across the face. Rin and Taylor laughed when he yelled and Elizabeth cursed at him. It was getting late and Elizabeth wanted to go home. They then walked off making jokes and laughing. "You guys are idiots." Elizabeth announced. "But you're my idiots." She confessed.
