This is my first chapter to my first ever fanfic. Hopefully I didn't write too terribly. Enjoy!
Wall-E, EVE, and everything are not owned by me. Pixar owns them and I wish I could too :)
Questions Asked
As the door to his truck slowly opened revealing a sunlit haze that hung over the newly founded community, a small cube bodied robot rolled out of the area on its treads. Wall-E looked at the horizon that was home to his newly found friends he sighed, realizing everything that he had ever wanted had come true.
He had found the perfect "girlfriend" as it were, she was the opposite in many ways but for some reason the two of them had clicked in a way that even Wall-E could not figure out. After only one year passing from the landing of the Axiom on the planet, life was soon returning to the barren world. Plants were being grown at an exponential rate. Wall-E had always thought this was a good sign, but only saw the plants as something he should give to EVE. As his power levels raised and the familiar sound told him that he was charged the sleek robot known as EVE floated out of the truck.
"Wall-E?", she said questioningly, looking at him with upturned, blue crescents for eyes.
She also was very happy to have her "boyfriend" that had stumbled and found her. The past year seemed to have gone by in a flash of light, but it was the best year she had ever had. After not having any sort of directive to find plant forms on Earth, she switched out her duties to helping the people in the newly formed colony.
Wall-E put away his solar panels looking up at EVE, he raised his mechanical hand and waved at her. Because she was only floating a few feet from him she giggled at the site and formed her fingers from her fin, entwining her hand with his.
"Ev-ah?", Wall-E said wondering what the love of his life was asking.
"Captain.", she stated as she started to grab his cube like body.
Wall-E loved the feeling of flying. Even though he couldn't do it himself, he was always pleased to go with EVE flying. With that, EVE bolted as fast as she could with Wall-E, speeding around the city. Wall-E let out a happy beep as she flew past the sound bearer. As she slowed down she started to fly toward the newly formed human town near the outskirts of the dead city. Wall-E and EVE both noted the progress on the town's expansion and growth over the past year. With all robots being able to help in some way, the progress had been very quick to build the town. Because most robots needed charging, they still lived on the Axiom for the time being until the proper charging systems were brought down Earth-side.
The couple landed in front of the Captain's current residence, a small house near the center of the town. As all the houses were, it was smaller but had everything one needed for a home. It was a cozy place that Wall-E always liked visiting.
"Maybe", EVE thought, "I can convince Wall-E to live in one of these places…"
Wall-E knocked lightly on the door and it opened at once.
"Hello my friends! Come in, come in." Wall-E and EVE went to the living room that was near the front door. The Captain, being a man of considerable size before, had lost quite a few pounds. Exercise had helped to speed up the process. After reading that crops would not be able to be harvested for the next year or so, he started to look at converting the food processors in the Axiom from an unhealthy diet type to a better one. He, and a couple of others, got the system to work and produce more "healthy" meals. Not sure what the food was made of, he could only assume that it was better for you, not necessarily better tasting. But it got the job done.
"Wall-E, EVE, I have something to tell you. Something that the community has all agreed to…." The Captain was sure excited about something thought EVE.
"….as you two were the heroes that helped us get back to Earth we are holding a celebration for the two of you in thanks for helping us get back."
EVE's eyes flickered for a second getting wider and wider on her screen, she was getting better at portraying emotions from her eyes and motions. Wall-E was still listening, entranced in what the Captain was going to say next.
"With this being said, we would like to make the event take place on the evening of the one year anniversary of coming back home. Would you join us?" the Captain looked at the couple and realized from the look of Wall-E's inquisitive eyes, and EVE's blank expression, that they did not understand what he meant. He chucked softly and said,
"It's a good thing you two, a celebration is a party with singing and dancing…."
After hearing him say dancing, Wall-E understood what that would mean. He started moving around the room excitedly and hit the play button on his upper part of his "chest". This immediately started playing "Put on Your Sunday Clothes" quite loudly. Wall-E bumped into the Captain's couch that he had in the sparsely furnished room. EVE giggled at her cute boyfriend; she couldn't imagine another moment away from him and wonder how she got along before he came along.
Seeing Wall-E do this the Captain pointed at Wall-E and looked at EVE.
"Looks like he has the general idea, the party is going to be this Friday after the work is done in the fields. There should be games, food and dancing from what I hear." With this EVE picked up Wall-E and held him in front of the Captain. "Do you two want to come? It's a celebration for you two."
Wall-E hit the stop button on his music player and in a slow, stuttered but excited speech said "Yes!"
EVE's eyes made their happy crescents and she repeated, "Yes" to the Captain.
"Wonderful! I guess we will see you in three days time. There is quite a bit of work to be done. But I suppose because the celebration is for you, you don't need to help." The Captain put his hand up to his chin, "I do have a surprise for you two, but it will be at the event." He smiled and looked off into the distance. EVE had always wondered why humans did this, it seemed strange to stare at nothing. Maybe it was part of their thought process. She would have to try it sometime she thought.
Wall-E still in her arms was moving around excitedly, he jumped down onto the floor and started dancing again.
EVE giggled and thought, "One track mind I suppose". But all Wall-E was thinking of was how he would be able to dance like they did before outside of the Axiom in space. Holding EVE's hands all the while, spinning around because the rest of the world wouldn't matter.
Suddenly, Wall-E's thought was broken by EVE calling his name. She was outside the front door waiting for him with bright, beautiful, blue crescent eyes "smiling" at him. He quickly joined her and both of them looked back and waved at the Captain as he said his goodbyes.
Wall-E reached up for EVE's fin, which she turned into a hand, meshing her fingers with his. As they approached the truck to get going on the duties of the day, Wall-E looked up at EVE and said, "Happy?"
The very word was warm. EVE bent down a little exchanging a spark between her and Wall-E, and said the word she had just learned; "Yes!" she exclaimed "smiling". Wall-E was almost glowing with how things were going. He opened the door to the truck, looking at all the things he had collected over the centuries and realized he had found the perfect thing in his life.
As he left for the trash heap in the center of the city he looked back at EVE leaving the truck and flying toward the fields, wondering what "games" are.
