Acting Up

Chapter 1: Stop Being Ignorant

It had been 3 days since Bebop recruited a little hacker. Edward Wong had behaved for the first couple of days. But on the 3rd day, she acted way weirder than she ever has been. She jumps on Spike in tackle hugs; she stares at him with dreamy eyes; and gives him surprise kisses every now and then. One day Spike had just returned from another bounty; Jet was in the control room as usual; Faye was in the shower; and Ed was playing on her computer while Ein was fast asleep. When Spike entered the room, Ed looked up at him with a very happy expression.

"Hey, Spike. How was Spike's trip?" She spoke in a joyful voice.

"Ah, shity. Bastard had to kill himself before I could catch his ass." Spike groaned.

Faye just walked in just as Ed gave Spike a strong hug. Keeping quiet, Faye watched and laughed as Ed gave Spike a peck on the lips, shocking Spike. She was still hugging him as he pushed her off quickly. "What the hell's your problem?" Teary eyed, Ed sobbed as she ran to another part of the ship.

Spike felt Faye's hand slap him to next week.

"What the hell was that for!" Spike yelled rubbing his head.

"You really are thick headed. You hurt that little girl's feelings. You can't even tell that she's…"

"She's what?"

"Nothing. Just go up there and cheer her up."

Spike sighed. This is why I hate women and kids.
