Okay, this is a little embarrassing. I told you guys I was gonna post a few times tonight, but...I fell asleep while I was editing this chapter. My mum woke me up an hour ago, and there was a load of nonsense all over my computer screen where J had once been. I wasn't able to recover the original -.-
So I've re-written it the best I can when I'm a little sleep-deprived (I don't sleep well and every bit of shut-eye I can grab is important) and I think this might have turned out better than before I sleep-deleted it.
J is for...Jealous
Silver
Silver, being Silver, had issues with telling people how he felt. It wasn't so much that he didn't want people to know how he was feeling, more that he didn't know who to trust with his emotions and his secrets.
Well, apart from Blue.
"You're jealous of Crystal?"
He shrugged, quickly turning a nice cherry red.
"It's just...she spends so much time with him, and she can, I don't know... she's better than me."
"Silver, she's not better than you."
"What if he thinks she is?"
"He doesn't, Silvy, but there is something you can do..."
"What?"
"Talk to him!"
Gold
"I'm home!" A backpack hit the floor by the apartment door, followed by a pair of trainers. Gold looked around, trying to spot the redhead. He was later than expected; flights from Hoenn were delayed due to weather.
"Silver?"
The flat was quiet, and Gold thought Silver had left, before he caught sight of a streak of red on the sofa. He peered over the back of the seat and smiled: Silver was fast asleep, curled around a pillow.
That was the first time Gold felt jealous of an inanimate object for being cuddled by Silver. It wasn't the last.
I don't know why, but the image of Silver asleep curled up hugging a pillow seems permanently burned into my mind. But it's a cute image so I don't really care :)
I hope my sleep-deprived brain hasn't churned out a page full of mush, and that you guys like this.
Bye for now,
