AN: I dunno how many people are going to like this chapter. I have lots of theories on Ed's feelings toward Spike, and I'm sure not everyone would agree with those theories, but they're mine nonetheless. Here's your Ed chapter. ^_^
Disclaimer: I don't own Cowboy Bebop or "Nowhere Man" by the Beatles.
He's a real nowhere Man,
Sitting in his Nowhere Land,
Making all his nowhere plans
for nobody.

Ed is bored. Waaaiii!!! Ed HATES being bored! Ed needs something to do!
"What should we do, Ein?" Ed asked Ein.
"Woof!" said Ein. Ed wishes that there were more of those mushrooms around, then I could have some fun! Or maybe another horrible Space Creature! Then Ed could freak out Faye-Faye and make her leave Spike alone…
They don't think Ed knows… but Ed does know. Ed knows that Faye-Faye loves Spike, but Spike loves Julia. Well, Ed loves Ein! And Ed loves Jett! And Ed loves Space! And Ed loves Tomato! And Ed loves M-PU! And Ed loves the Bebop! And Ed loves… Ed likes Spike.
Spike is hurt right now. Ed doesn't like it when Spike hurts, but Spike hurts all the time. No one else sees it, but Ed does. Spike hurts inside. It bothers Ed a lot when Spike hurts. I think it bothers Faye-Faye too.

Doesn't have a point of view,
Knows not where he's going to,
Isn't he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man, please listen,
You don't know what you're missing,
Nowhere Man, the world is at your command.

I am sitting down at Tomato right now, playing games. That's what Ed does when Ed's bored. Ed was tired of playing games though, so I stood up. I stretched and decided to see if there was anything to eat. Probably not, but Ed's going to look anyway, cos Ed is HUNGRY!
I wonder where Jett is...? I bet he's in the hanger. Ed wandered into the main room and stopped. Faye-Faye was there, she was sleeping on the floor next to Spike. Ed thinks that Spike likes Faye-Faye too, but he won't admit it yet. I hope that Spike likes Ed too... 'Cos Spike says he hates kids all the time, but Ed doesn't believe him.
I stood back a bit and watched Faye-Faye and Spike. Faye-Faye woke up after a second and looked up at Spike. She checked his temperature and brushed his hair out of his eyes. Then she sighed and stood up.
Ed feels kinda sorry for Faye-Faye. She really loves Spike.
But Ed loves Spike too! And Jett is worried about Spike and so is Ein! Why does Faye-Faye keep him for herself? It makes Ed jealous!
Spike's awake!

He's as blind as he can be,
Just sees what he wants to see,
Nowhere Man can you see me at all?
Doesn't have a point of view,
Knows not where he's going to,
Isn't he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man, don't worry,
Take your time, don't hurry,
Leave it all till somebody else
lend you a hand.

I watched Spike take Faye-Faye's hand. Ed could hear him say "hi" to Faye-Faye. Faye-Faye smiled back at him and then... they KISSED! NOOOOOO!!! Ed's upset! Ed jumped into the room and yelled "boo!" as loud as I could so that they'd stop.
Faye-Faye and Spike looked up at Ed and blinked, they didn't understand. Ed doesn't care if they understand, Ed just wants them to stop. Then Ed ran out of the room and grabbed Tomato.
I took it back to the hanger, where Ed found Jett. He was fixing the Red Tail.
"What's the matter, Ed?" Jett asked Ed. Ed just shrugged and plugged Tomato into the wall and started playing games again. Ed hopes that Faye-Faye gets eaten by a horrible space alien.
