I Almost Said I Love You-Chapter 162

*they drove for a few more minutes before reaching their destination, frm the outside looking like an old abandoned country mansion*

Klepta: We're here

Ozzy blinked and looked over to Thrax and Edison. "How are we going to get him inside without waking him?" he asked.

Klepta: *stopped the van n got out to their area* Allow me *reaches dwn to gently carry him bridal style, with such nimble movements tht the younger virus could barely evn feel anything*

Thrax: Smooth. Shall we? *carries Oz in tht fashion too, chuckling*

Rouge: *laughed n copied them, carrying Rodeo in tht fashion too, earning a mirthful laught by Rodeo*

Ozzy gasped out and failed a little, whining out. "Oi! I ain't asleep, put me down!" he groaned out, glaring up at the virus as Nessie yapped and follow.

Thrax: Oh u will be wen I'm done wiht u *whispered hotly in tht tone near Oz's ear as he followed behind Klepta to enter the mansion, Majah being the last to enter*

"W-wha?" Ozzy whispered as he shivered, flushing slightly before he swatted at him. "I don't think so, don't get any ideas!" he huffed at him, squirming around.

Thrax: *grins deviously* Oh bt I already hv *enters the mansion* Man, looks a little dusty

Majah: I'm sure u guys spruce it up. There's a few rooms ard here. Take ur pick

Ozzy glared at him, definately not going to be letting him have his own way. The have other things to think about!

Edison groaned and shuffled around in Klepta's arms, seeming to be stirring from his sleep.

*the twins had dibs on their own bedroom n entered together with Amber n Wolf*

Klepta: *found their room n lay Edison on bed* Hey, mein bruder, slept well?

Edison groaned softly, rolling over so his back was to him and curled up on the dusty bed, wanting more sleep.

Klepta: *smiled n tucked him in* Dont sleep too long, we need to spruce up this plc a bit n I aint want u to sleep in a dirty bed *kissed his forehead*

Edison mumbled incoherant German at him before he curled up tighter and hid his head, purring seeming to come from him.

Klepta: *smiled then went dwnstairs where evryone else seem to be moving stuff frm the van inside*

Ozzy came inside, dumping his bag of stuff on the floor as Nessie followed behind with his bowl in his mouth.

Rouge: *was bringing in the food to the kitchen area*

Thrax: *was bringing in certain heavy set stuff in*

Majah: I'll be able to help u connect with water, gas n light by nxt week, so u guys will hv to make do with candles n torchlights for now. I'm taking a big risk tho. Big Mama doesnt knw abt this

Ozzy looked up, smiling at Majah. "We appreciate the help, even if some of us don't show it." he said, glancing over at Thrax before shaking his head, absently fondling the bandana around his neck, more nervous now they were so close.

Majah: Well, I better run. Need to report to Big Mama tht ur here, bt I wont tell her where u r, dont worry. I'll be bk here ard midnight, just to brief u on things abt her, OK? *patted Nessie n disappeared as quickly as he came*

Rouge: Moh~ Frickin' ninja ne~

Nessie murred as he was petted before he blinked, whining softly when Majah disappeared as Ozzy sighed, looking around. "We got alot of work to do..."

*the gang started moving evrything there is in the van, all their necessities n whtnot, before Klepta drove the van to the bk of the mansion where there is a garage*

Ozzy looked around, sighing a little at all their stuff, rubbing the back of his neck. "This place really needs cleaning up..."

Klepta: Its abandoned, so no surprise there. Well, lets get started then, since the day is still high

Rouge: Hai hai~! I'll get the brooms!

Ozzy groaned and ran a hand through his hair. "Bleh... I really hate cleaning..."

Thrax: Now dont be lazy there, baby. We're all doing this together, so lets get a move on, aye? *smacked his butt n grinned before going off to get the mops n buckets*

Ozzy yelped in surprise, flushing before grumbling at him as he rubbed his butt as he wandered off to explore the mansion.

Thrax: *shook his head n continued helping out with the other viruses to clean n spruce the plc up*

Ozzy wandered around, seeing dust and such everywhere over the abandoned build and the items inside, old pictures on the walls and very expencive looking orniments. "This place is huge!" he muttered to himself, peeking in all the rooms he passed, faintly hearing someone shouting at Nessie to let go, he'd probably attacked a broom or a mop while they were cleaning.

*which was true as Rouge was grumbling at Nessie chasing n biting at the mop while he was trying to mop the living room*

Rouge: Hanase yo, Nessie-chan! Moh~! Koko kara de! (get outta here) *nudged him away with his foot*

Nessie yapped at him, his tail wagging, seeming to be in a playful, hyper mood as he bounded around Rouge, nudging his nose before he pounced on the mop again, growling and biting at it.

Rouge: Moh~ Ottoto-chan~ Get rid of ur inu (dog) here ne~!

Thrax: *picks Nessie by the scruff of his neck n dropped him on the foot of the stairs* U go play with tht little mangy kitten of urs or go bother Mommy. Let Daddy work in peace, OK? *flicked his forehead for good measure before going bk to work*

Nessie yelped out, stumbling at the bottom of the stairs before he looked back, seeming to be pouting, his ears lowering as he whined, looking sad. He wanted to play with the brooms and mops.

Chico: *mewed, as if asking him to follow her to go look for their Mommy*

Nessie looked over at the kitten, still pouting before he licked over her back at head before he followed after her.

Chico: *mewled as she felt the lick, like a kitten giggle before she made her way ard the mansion, trying to sniff her Mommy out*

Ozzy was wandering around upstairs, still looking at all the many rooms, searching through seeming stuff left from the old residents.

Chico: *found her Mommy n bounded to him, purring n nuzzling at his legs round n round*

Ozzy jumped in surprise, sat on a old, dusty bed, looking at a old diary as Chico found him, Nessie soon following. "Oh, hello you two..."

Chico: *mewed as she leapt onto Oz's lap, while Nessie followed behind, yapping n rubbing his head against Oz's knee*

Ozzy smiled and gave each of them a pet, moving the diary out of the way when Chico jumped on his lap. "Have you two been bothering the others, eh?" he said, grinning some.

Nessie: *yapped, as if saying no way n wagged his tail*

Chico: *just mewed n rest on her Mommy's lap*

Ozzy laughed and shook his head, grinning and petting the pup's head. "Yeah, if you say so..." he mumbled before going back to reading the diary, seeming to have found something that told him about the days before Salander became such a neat freak.

Thrax: *had just finished done the dwnstairs n working his way to the rooms* U knw, if u had time to read, we'd appreciate if u help out a little *sits beside him* Wassat ur reading anyways?

Ozzy jumped in surprise, looking up and grinning sheepishly. "Aha... I was seeing what needed cleaning, and I came across this... I think it's a diary... seems to be from someone that used to live here..."

Thrax: Reli? *takes it frm him gently n read the name of the owner* Hmm, Pryca. Interesting name. Must be a girl's diary. U can read it later AFTER u help out wiht the house. Till then, I'm confiscating this *hands Oz a broom, a duster n a mop wiht a bucket* Knock urself out *walks away to fix up the other rooms*

"Wha... HEY!" Ozzy called out, glaring up at the virus when he took the diary from him, grumbling as he looked at all the stuff he was left with me before looking to the pup and kitten. "... You guys wanna help me?"

Nessie: *yapped happily, wagging his tail, glad to be able to play with a broom again*

Chico: *mewed in agreement with her odd brother*

Ozzy laughed before he picked Chico up and put her on th bed before looking around. "I guess we could clean this room first since we're in here..." he said before he started to brush up all the dust on the floor.
