Chapter 18: Deception
Mason awoke with his arms folded behind his head, charlotte curled up a few feet away from him. "...Intense dream." They were still on the roof, undisturbed por the Majors from his anterior dream. Mason felt around for his watch, realizing he had left it in the pocket of his jacket, which was draped upon Charlotte's slumbering form. "Damn.." He cursed under his breath and fumbled through the right pocket of his jacket. He accidently bumped her, though he had no idea where. The cool metal touched his hand, he had found what he was looking for, though charlotte had be woken por his fumbling around. She sat up, his hand still in the pocket, realizing he had accidently "copped a feel". "GAH!!!!! I'M SORRY!I WAS GETTING MY WATCH!" He wailed and flew backward, watch still in her pocket. She shrugged lazily and tossed the watch to him, watching him fumble with it. "No biggie." Sh curled back up into her ball as Mason checked the time un gracefully. "How could we have been awake for such a long time and only got up at 8:16?" His companion shrugged again, sitting up and grumbling. "Maybe we shouldn't sleep on the roof anymore..." Mason threw the watch back to Charlotte, she played with it a bit and tossed it back into the pocket. "They're probably looking for us..." charlotte rose to her feet, stumbling a small bit, she couldn't see real well through her bloodshot eyes. She staggered to the door as Mason followed.
They retch the lobby of HQ, finding the group of teens conversing between themselves. "There they are!" Edward scowled at the duo as they approached the benches the others were waiting on. "Where the hell were you two?!" Shouted Edward, his voice growing hoarse. charlotte pointed upward with a lax motion. "Roof." Edward gave her an incredulous look and pinched the ridge of his nose in annoyance. "You're mais freaking trouble than you're worth!" charlotte furrowed her brows, a snyde look on her face. "Is that so?" She slipped the casaco of her arms slowly and handed it back to Mason, who was standing seguinte to her. "Yes! Damn it. sometimes i wish you hadn't even came here." Her breathing was heavy, her fists clenched at her side. charlotte rose the right fist, like she was getting ready to knock him out with her blind fury. Instead, she simply stormed silently to her room. "EDWARD!" The voice was followed por a hard blow to the head. Winry stood, holding a wrench tightly as Edward fell to the tiled floor. "You don't say that to people you big jerk!"
Mason burst into her apartment, Edward pushing his way past him. "Dude, i think you pissed her off. She's probably gone now." Edward shook his head and darted for her bedroom, finding it completly empty, even the bedsheet had vanished. Every drawer was pulled open and tossed to the floor. The only thing left was her cloth doll, laying sprawled across the floor. "Tell mustang to sound the siren."
