367 More Than a Little Perky
I woke up the next morning still worried about Wang Chao, but a brief glimpse at his flame inside of me reassured me that he was ok. Giving it a stroke to let him know I was thinking of him, I rolled out of bed and into the shower.
I don't know if I was choosing violence today. I assumed that that would be something Violence told me later, but I was going to have to be in meetings with idiots all day. I sighed as I let the hot water run down my body. Without Wang Chao dealing with the military, I was going to have to do it.
And I really didn't know how I was feeling about that idea. Scratch that, I knew how I was feeling about it; I was pissed. But I had to get my hands on that device that made the world go 'boom', and the only way to do that was to play nice with others. Definitely not my strong suit.
But you know who was good at dealing with stupid people and still maintaining a smile on his face? Liu Wei. And... he was military... and he was Navy. He was my perfect scapegoat. I could sit at the table and drink my coffee while the plans could be made around me.
I got out of the shower, more than a little happy about the plan in my head. After getting dressed, I skipped into the main living room part of my RV with a big smile on my face. "Good morning!" I said cheerfully. "Did everyone have a good night's sleep?"
"You are way too perky this morning, and I know you haven't even had your first cup of coffee. What are you planning, Sweetness?" asked Liu Yu Zeng from where he sat at the island. Chen Zi Han was in the kitchenette, cooking us an amazing breakfast, and things were going perfectly.
"What? I can't be this happy? I think it is great!" I said before I forced myself to freeze. He was right, I was much too perky, even after coming up with a good plan. "I think I have a new personality," I grumbled with a frown before I felt myself smiling again. "But that's good too!"
'Violence!!!!!' I shouted in my mind, now more than a little concerned that I had taken the wrong meds this morning. And considering that I didn't even take meds, it was a little worrying.
'I see you have met Perky,' said Violence with a deadpanned voice. Clearly, she was as impressed with Perky as I was. 'I suggest that you just let her have her moment so she can merge with the rest of them.'
'I need to let her have her moment? Now? When I am about to go into a meeting with a bunch of stone-cold military dudes? This is your good idea?' I asked, completely stressed right now. Perky was not something that I did, like at all.
Fuck, I would have to warn the guys.
'You can't keep her squished down here with Romance and Sadness?' I knew that the answer was going to be no, but I had to try anyways.
'Nope. Besides, with Wang Chao gone, you need something to force you to be happy,' replied Violence with a shrug. I could see her sitting on her throne of swords; her legs crossed and a big smile on her face.
'Happy, yes. I can do happy. I don't want to do perky.'
'What's wrong with being perky? I think a lot of the world's problems can be dealt with with a bit of perkiness.' A girl skipped into the throne room in my mind. Her long black hair was tied up in pig-tails, and she wore a blue Alice-type dress with knee-high socks, black shoes, and a little apron to complete the look.
'She looks a lot like Crazy,' I said, looking at Violence. And even though I was not the biggest fan of Perky, I did approve of her style. It was kind of cute, in a Halloween costume kind of way.
'She also looks like Psycho,' warned Violence. 'For lack of a better word, the three of them are triplets. But, I would be a bit worried about Psycho popping her head in right now. Perky can be dealt with with a lot less bloodshed than Psycho.'
'Exactly how many personalities do I have to deal with?' I asked, concerned.
'You are a woman. You have more personalities than there are days in the year,' chuckled Violence. 'But a lot of them merged together long before you started this life, so you won't need to worry about them. For now, just deal with Perky.'
I would fully admit that Perky sounded a lot better than Psycho, but I would have to warn the guys about both. With a sigh, I blinked back into my RV, surrounded by my men looking at me with more than a little concern. "Are you all right, Sweetness?"
"Yes, apparently, today is Perky's day. We will be giving her today and today only, and then she will go away and leave me alone. I have also been told that Crazy, Perky, and Psycho travel together. Crazy has been handled, thanks to Chen Zi Han, and we all have to worry about Psycho."
"So, we are going to have to deal with you talking incredibly fast and with run-on sentences?" smirked Chen Zi Han as he put a plate of pancakes in front of me.
"More than likely, yes," I said with a nod of my head before I dug into the offering in front of me. Nothing made a morning better than pancakes and maple syrup... unless. I looked up at Chen Zi Han as he added some whipped cream to my plate. "But you love me, and I love you, so everything is all good."
Everyone froze for a moment while what I had said was processed. "I am going to wait until you are back to normal to take those words to heart," chuckled Liu Wei as he started to cut into his pancakes. "But I appreciate the sentiment."
