Sorry for the wait! Here is my second little diary entry, enjoy! It's even been edited too!
It's morning now, I'm still thinking about what Gene said to me last night, because I can't get it out of my head. There are those kind of people, and then there's me. That's all I've been thinking about. What does he mean by that, I thought, does he feel the same way about me as I feel about him? Nah, why would he have those feelings for me, I mean come on, we're 3 years apart, but he doesn't know that, and he seems to have those feelings for Melfina anyways. I shrugged at the thought and got up out of my bed. I put my glasses on, threw my cloak over myself, and put my hat on so I'd look normal again. I went out into the kitchen where Melfina had cooked breakfast for everyone. Everyone was seated at the table,so I sat down myself. "Good morning Eliza, did you have a nice rest?", Gene asked me. "Yeah, yeah", I replied. "You seem to be out of it today, aren't you happy to see me?", Gene continued. "Yes Gene, I'm delighted to see you. I couldn't sleep last night, because I kept dreaming about you", I replied, rolling my eyes. What I didn't tell him was that was true. Gene smiled at me, and I looked down at the table and blushed a bit. Melfina served us breakfast and we all ate in silence. "This is real good Melfina, you're a good cook", Jim said to Melfina. "Thank you Jim, I'm glad you like it", Melfina replied. I looked up from the table and noticed Gene was staring at me and smiling. "What?", I asked Gene. "Nothing", Gene replied, going back to his food. I shrugged a bit, looking down at my plate and continuing to eat. But everytime I would look up, Gene would be staring at me. "What?", I asked again, feeling a bit nervous. "Nothing", Gene replied with a chuckle. "Why are you staring at me so much?", I asked Gene. "Nothing really, I just like to stare", Gene replied. But of course, everyone including me knew Gene was lying, which he wasn't that good at, the same with telling the truth. "Gene, stop staring at Eliza", Aisha said. "But I wanna stare at her! She's so adorable, why wouldn't anyone want to stare at her?", Gene said playfully. "Adorable?", I asked, blushing a bit more. Gene nodded, and I just sat there. I finally got up and put my dishes in the sink. "If you would excuse me, I will be doing some thinking in the other room since Gene is starting to freak me out", I said to everyone. Gene smiled at me and gave me a wink. I took a deep breath and started to walk away. "Okay, I love you Eliza!", Gene said to me. I almost tripped and my heart skipped a beat at the sound of that. I turned around and looked at Gene questioningly. "Gotcha Eliza! I knew you'd fall for that", Gene said teasingly. I turned around and my heart started to beat again. I gave a sigh and walked onward. That was a shock, I thought to myself, I thought he was serious. "It'll never happen", I said to myself.
I wandered around for a bit before deciding to go into the living room. I walked toward the living room, but I heard Gilliam's voice which made me jump. "Hello there Eliza", Gilliam said. "Hey Gilliam, you scared me for a minute, I thought Gene was sneaking up on me", I replied. "Well, I was just passing by when I heard a loud sound and came to see what it was, but I guess it was just you", Gilliam said. "Okay, now that's something Gene would say, I don't need to hear it from you too" I said a bit irritably, walking away before Gilliam could speak again. I went into the living room to rest, making sure I was alone so I could think. I sat down on the couch and folded my legs up to get some of the light out of my eyes, since I can think better in the dark. I was just thinking about when I should reveal to Gene about my true feelings for him when I felt someone tap me on the shoulder. It was Jim, but his tap made me jump. "Sorry to scare you Eliza, but we can't find Gene. He said he was going to check the engines of the ship but when Suzuka went to get him, he was gone. I think he's around here somewhere, but if it's not too much trouble, could you go find him for us?", Jim explained. "That's okay, I'm a bit jumpy today as it is for some reason", I said. I sighed at Jim's request, since it's usually Gene who ends up finding me, I never had to find him. "How ironic, but I'll go find Lover Boy for you. Hopefully he isn't trying to trick me like he always does.", I replied as I got up to go look for Gene.
I had a strong feeling he went to look for me, so I went down the dark hallway where I go to explore. I started to look around when I heard a noise. I looked around but there was no one there. I continued to walk when I thought I heard footsteps behind me. I turned around but there was no one there, so I thought. I pulled a gun out from an inside pocket in my cloak, just in case. I had started to back up, but all of a sudden I felt something being wrapped around me, and someone picked me up, and started running off. The person must have ran into a room I guess, because I heard a door shut, and I was dropped on a bed and pinned down, so I couldn't move. I struggled to get free but the person was just too strong. I heard a laugh, which I recognized as Gene's. He let me go so I could breathe. I realized he wrapped his coat around me. "That was fun, I wish I could do that again", Gene said to me. "Yeah, well you got to stop doing things like that to me, see look I was ready to shoot you and everything", I said, holding up my gun. "I didn't see the gun, or else I would've been more careful. But why is it that I must stop playing around with you again?", Gene replied. "If you don't stop, then you'll give me a heart attack! But of course, you wouldn't mind since I'm so annoying", I said slyly. Gene laughed at that, then paused. "I never said you were annoying", he said. He came over and sat down with me. He got on top of me playfully, since I never moved so now I couldn't get up. Man, I never imagined his body would feel this good, I thought. Wait, why did I just think that? Argh, I'm becoming just as perverted as he is! "You're very cute Eliza, I seriously mean that.", Gene said to me. This brought me out of my thoughts. "Yeah, and so are you, but what's the difference?", I asked, lowering my eyelids. "It's just that I've never seen a cuter girl than you before." Gene confessed. I scoffed at that statement. "Oh really? How many women have you used that one on Gene?", I said with a hint of sarcasm in my voice. "I'm serious Eliza! And the truth is, I love you very much. I never realized it until just recently, but I can't stop thinking about you", Gene continued. He looked over to make sure no one was at the door eavesdropping, then turned back to me. He leaned over and whispered in my ear. "And I mean that too, I really love you, I'm not lying. I want to spend my life with you." Gene whispered, slowly starting to give me kisses from my cheek to my neck. I shivered a bit at the touches, they just felt so nice. Well, talk about luck. All this time, and I never would have guessed he truely had those feelings for me, I thought. Well, I guess this is the perfect time to tell him my feelings then, I thought some more. "Gene, there is something I must tell you, and I've been keeping it for a while", I said to Gene.
Stay tuned for the conclusion...
