"No really!" Gibson said as him and Otto reached the training room
"oh yeah! prove it!" Otto said
"Alright, watch this" Gibson said as he bolted up to SPRX, the only one in the training room
"Hey, SPRX, what's Nova's favorite color?" Gibson asked
"She'll say it's yellow, but that's only cause she doesn't want to admit that it's pink" SPRX said without looking up
Gibson glared back at Otto
"that proves nothing!" Otto yelled
"huh? What are you guys talking about?" SPRX said, now looking up
"I told Otto that you knew Nova better than anyone else on the team, and he doesn't believe me!" Gibson said
"Why?" SPRX asked
"because I just don't-" Otto started
"no! Why does Gibson think I know her best?" SPRX asked
"What's her favorite thing to do?" Gibson asked
"sparing" SPRX said
"her favorite food?"
"spaghetti"
"what's one of her biggest secrets?"
"she has a stash of stuffed animals in her closet that she doesn't know we know about"
"how many times has she hit you?"
"673 times"
"what's the biggest thing in her room?"
"her punching bag"
"smallest?"
"A little clay figure I made her"
"what does she usually smell like?"
"peaches"
"Whoa!" Otto said
"What?" SPRX asked
"you do know her best!" Otto said as he reached in his pocket and pulled out a dollar
which Gibson took with pride
"told you! it's because he loves her!" Gibson said
"WHOA! WAIT! WHAT!" SPRX yelled "I never said that! where did you get that idea!?"
"they way you get nervous around her, and the subject of her, like just them" Gibson smiled
SPRX was blushing bright enough to show through his color scheme
"LET ME TRY!" Otto said "What's Nova doing right now?"
"cleaning her room" SPRX said
"you're good!" Otto smiled "how's her singing?"
"really good, course she never sings outside of the shower, and she doesn't know that I can hear her in my room, just how the pipes are laid down I guess" SPRX said
Gibson just continued his "told ya so" look
"that's impressive!" Otto said
"um...thanks?" SPRX said
"say something else about her!" Otto jumped
"well when it's dark her eyes get really hott pink, and when there's a lot of light they're a creamy, gentle kind of pink" SPRX said "where's Gibson?"
"SPRX SAID WHAT!?" Nova screamed
SPRX turned white
Nova came stomping in
"SPRX! how dare you spy on me like that! it's none of your business what's in my closet or what I do in the shower!" Nova yelled
SPRX couldn't move
"he also said you the exact number of times you hit him and the colors of your eyes in different lights!" Otto smiled "Gibson's right! he does know you better than anyone else on the team!"
then Otto sniffed Nova
"and now that he mentioned it, you do kind of smell like peaches!" he grinned
SPRX still couldn't move
Nova was speechless
no one knew about how all her scented stuff had to be peach
and did he really count how many times she hit him?
"What about my eyes?" Nova finally said
weird noises was all that SPRX could manage
Gibson whispered something in Otto's ear
"NO WAY! prove that one! I dare you!" Otto said
"Same bet?" Gibson asked
Otto nodded
Gibson turned toward Nova
"Nova? What's SPRX's favorite color?" Gibson asked
"Red, duh!" Nova said
"he's favorite thing to do?"
"flying, duh!"
"favorite food?"
"chocolate, duh!"
"one of his biggest secrets?"
"that he talks to himself in the mirror, duh!"
"how many times has he flirted with you?"
"somewhere around 780..."
"what's the biggest thing in his room?"
"his mirror, duh!"
"smallest?"
"probably his dog tags from flight school, duh!"
"what does he usually smell like?"
"leather, like the kind in his ship"
Gibson reached out his had only to be awarded another dollar from Otto
Nova didn't actually mean to say that last one...
"really?" SPRX said as he actually sniffed himself
Nova rolled her eyes
"YES! it's probably because you spend so much time there!" Nova said
"So does Nova love SPRX too?" Otto asked
"WHAT!?" Nova yelled
she wasn't sure what was more shocking
suggesting that she love SPRX
or the "too" part of that sentence
did that mean that SPRX said that he loved her?
"HEY!" Otto said "together you guys can smell like some spilled peaches in SPRX's ship!"
Gibson quickly dragged Otto out
after some silence
SPRX spoke
"that actually sounds pretty good to me" he smirked
Nova scowled
but SPRX just kept smirking
Nova could help it, she smiled
and the two locked hands and walked off
done!
I don't know where the peaches thing came from... o_O
whatever, it was cute ^v^
and I think "like someone spilled peaches in SPRX's ship" was pretty funny!
