Tee's POV

I was in the kitchen fixing myself some breakfast when "aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!" sounded from next door.

Someone was hurting and needed my help.  I dropped what I was doing and ran over to Copter's  unit and banged on his door as loud as I could.

After a few seconds Copter opened the door wearing only his pajama pants.  

"Are you alright?" I asked. 

He noticed me looking at his bare chest. "Oh, I was getting ready to use the bathroom when I stubbed my toe against the bathroom door," he explained.

"That must have hurt so much because I heard your cry of pain go straight through my kitchen wall," I said. "Come, let me put some ice on your toe before it starts swelling."

I took hold of his arm to lead him to my unit.

"No, no, no, I'll be fine," he said.

"No," I insisted, "we have to apply some ice on that toe right now.  It might look alright but in a few minutes if you don't apply ice to it, it will start getting red and swollen.  You and P'Kim will be filming your scene with the bit actors who will play the car repair guys this evening and you don't want to be limping in front of the cameras."

I brought him inside my unit.

"I can smell something burning," Copter said as he stepped into my unit.

"Shit! I forgot all about the breakfast that I had been cooking!" I exclaimed.

I ran quickly to turn off the stove and dropped the burning pan into the kitchen sink.

"Come," I said to Copter, "let me take care of you."

"Where's P'Tae," he asked.

"He's still sleeping," I said, "so let's just keep our voices low."

I made Copter sit on the couch while I went to fetch some ice from the freezer.  I was wrapping the ice cubes with a small towel when there was a knock on the door.

I went to open it.  "Is Copter in here?" it was P'Kim.

"Yes, he is," I said, letting him in, "he stubbed his toe against the bathroom door and I'm tending to it."

"What was he doing in your bathroom?" P'Kim asked angrily.

"What's going on out here?" P'Tae walked out of the bedroom, his hair looking all rumpled but which did not detract from his good looks. Was I starting to get attracted to him?  I shook my head at the thought.

Copter's POV

"Are you alright?" P'Tee asked, his eyes wide with concern, but at the same time he did not fail to notice that I was half undressed.  He must have heard P'Kim's cry of pleasure. I had to make up a good explanation.

"Oh, I was getting ready to use the bathroom when I stubbed my toe against the door," I said thinking quickly to keep him from thinking correctly that P'Kim and I had been indulging in some pleasurable activities.

"It must have hurt a lot because I heard your cry of pain through my kitchen wall," he said.

Shit, these walls are so thin the constructors might as well have only used curtains to separate our units.

"Come," said P'Tee, taking my hand, "let me put some ice on your toe before it starts swelling."

"No, no, no, I'll be fine," I said, thinking of P'Kim waiting for me in the bedroom.

"No," P'Tee insisted, "if you don't take care of that poor toe right away, it will be swollen by evening and you don't want yourself limping in front of the cameras, do you?"

Before I could make any more protests he led me into his unit.  The moment I stepped into his unit, I smelled something burning.

"I can smell something burning," I told him.

"Oh, shit, I forgot that I had been cooking before I ran to your door," he said, quickly turning off his stove and placing the pan into the kitchen sink.

He then made me sit on the couch while he went to get some ice cubes.  He was starting to wrap the ice cubes with a small towel when a knock sounded on the door. P'Tee went to open it.

"Is Copter in here?" just as I expected, it was P'Kim coming to look for me.

"Yes, he is," said P'Tee, "I'm tending to his toe because he stubbed it against the bathroom door."

"What was he doing in your bathroom?" P'Kim had raised his voice loud enough to wake up P'Tae who walked out of his bedroom running his hand through his hair sleepily.
