American Boy
"Josie,
I have to tell you, I've always... been in love with your husband."

Rated: G
Jonathan frowned as he watched Steve and Josie dancing. The school had been saved… no thanks to him. All the students and staff had been depacified… no thanks to him. He sighed and looked down to the punchbowl in vague defeat. When he glanced up again Warren was asking Will to dance and the younger boy was staring at the flamethrower in utter confusion. Just as the older boy was about to give up and walk away Will grabbed his wrist and pulled him close, wrapping his arms tightly around Warren's narrow waist.
Jonathan sighed wistfully and only wished that his own courtship with Steve could have gone as well. He could still feel the Commander's glare of shock and mild disgust. They had made amends over the years… but their friendship had never fully recovered. He sighed again, and drained his punch, vaguely pleased that someone, probably Lash, had managed to spike it while he hadn't been watching.
"Jonathan!" Medulla greeted jovially. "Would you like to join me in this strange courtship ritual so that I may further study my subjects without drawing undue attention to myself?"
Jonathan blinked in shock.
Medulla cleared his throat. "Would you like to dance, Jonathan?"
"Oh… oh!" he finally grasped what the genius was saying. "I'd love to!"
