My Mistake

Chapter 12

by aya_yahiko/terrandagger

"Promise me you'll visit, Aunt Virginia?" Kaitlyn mused as hugging the older girl. "I'll miss you and Unca Jet."

Virginia smiled and hugged back. "Of course we'll visit, Kaitlyn." She assured the young one, as patting her head. "Take care, ok?"

The blonde 9 year old nodded. "I will."

Finally, after the days of fun and laughter with the team, it was time to head back home. This was a major problem for Jet, though.

Where would he go?

To Boot Hill? Or…

"Farewell!" Mrs. Winslet exclaimed, as waving. Gallows and Shane had already taken the train the day before, leaving Jet and Virginia with the cheerful family. "Take care!"

Smiling, Virginia waved as the train started to move. "We'll come back and visit! Bye, Mrs. Winslet, Kaitlyn and Clive! Thanks for everything!"

The sniper smiled and nodded, pushing his glasses up a bit, then waving also. "Take care of her." He mouthed to the silver haired Drifter beside the young lady who was bidding them farwell.

Jet, to his surprise, raised a thumbs up. Clive grinned again nodded slightly, as finally, the train went farther disappeared from their sight.

'She has changed him a lot...' The green haired scholar thought, as he put an arm around his wife's shoulder, while his other hand held his child's own. 'Maybe they might do good to each other... after all, they both share the same father... and Jet needs to take comfort from someone, I'm sure, he already knows who he really is...'

His thoughts were cut off, as his energetic 9 year old suddenly tugged at his sleeve.

"Daddy, does Aunt Virginia love Uncle Jet?" The child asked such an unexpected question.

Clive smiled and looked to Katherine for a brief moment, before in one swift moment, taking Kaitlyn in his arms.

"What do you think, dear?" The sniper replied to his daughter, an unmistakable grin on his face.

The blonde giggled and held on to her father, so that she may not fall from his embrace. "I think she does. They're just like you and Mommy!"

And with that, the couple laughed, later followed along by their child, as the three of them made their way back to their home.

~~~~~~~~~~

"Its crowded..." Virginia muttured under her breath as she and Jet made their way to an available seat.

"What's the big fuss in Southfarm nowadays?" Jet said, irritated. He was pushed away by the crowd from Virginia more than once, and well,... he was irritated.

The young honey haired maiden giggled a bit, hearing his irritated tune. "I'm not sure myself,... but I did hear rumors that some sort of fair will be held there..."

"I just hope its a decent fair... the last one was horrible..." The male Drifter replied, as he felt himself being pushed away from his companion again. 'DARN IT!' He thought, wanting to just shove away all these people so that they could get a good seat, and so that he wouldn't be separated from... her.

"Jet!" He heard her voice emerge from the crowds. Seconds later, he saw her face popping through the mass of people, her hand extended. "GRAB MY HAND!" She shouted, trying to push herself back towards him.

Nodding slightly, the silver haired treasure hunter held her hand, flushing a bit from the contact. Seeing that she was not strong enough to pull him towards her, he did it the other way around.

Feeling that she was being pulled by her companion, she gave in, and soon she was in front of him. They were close, at least.

Or maybe too close.

Virginia's face was leaning on Jet's chest, (Okay, okay, so I know Jet and Virginia are of the same height, so this isn't actually possible! But let's pretend Jet grew a few inches taller! Yay!) and he could smell the sweet scent of her hair. Their hands were still entwined, and both of them were blushing like crazy.

"Uh... hi, Jet." The emerald orbed Drifter said to her companion, turning bright pink. She couldn't move out of this situation... it was way too crowded...

He was breathing heavily, and a trickle of sweat went down his temple. He was beet red, like the girl in his arms. 'Damn the people on this stupid train.' Jet thought, as he breathed in the scent of her hair. It was fragrant... it smelled like... honey. Just like its color.

The silver haired Drifter smirked. "Hey, Ginny." He replied, as squeezing her hand a bit. Seeing her sigh in response, he chuckled, and kept grip with her hand. He then started to push along the crowd, and FINALLY saw an available seat.

Problem is : ...it was only one.

Throwing his belongings to the seat so that no one else could take it, Jet made his way to the chair he had found. Virginia smiled in relief at the sight of the chair, yet she also noticed that it was just for one.

"You can take it," The treasure hunter said to her, as automatically standing beside the seat.

The maiden shook her head. "No! You'll get sore legs once we get down."

"It's alright."

"If this happened 2 years ago, you would've said, '...Whatever.' Or you wouldn't have given me the seat in the first place."

He smirked. "Maybe. Maybe not."

"Oh, c'mon Jet!" Virginia exclaimed, as going near him. "We can share the seat."

Jet raised an eyebrow. "And how do we do that?"

Smiling cheerfully, the young lady grabbed him and pushed him on the chair. Taken aback by her sudden pull, he couldn't retaliate.

"There!" The green orbed Drifter said, the elated smile still on her face.

Her comrade rolled his eyes. "Nice idea." He said sarcastically, before adding, "I'm the only one sitting."

Also rolling her eyes, Virginia stated, "Silly! Just wait." She then grabbed their belongings, put it under the chair, then looked back to Jet. She was blushing, he could tell. What was she up to?

"Open your arms." The young female traveler started, giggling a bit as looking at her companion's confused face. Surprisingly, then, she sat on his lap, still blushing yet at the same time, still smiling.

"There!" She exclaimed, proud. "Now we're both on a chair."

He could only smile at that. "Yeah, but I think I'll still get sore legs either way."

"Hey! I'm not that fat nor heavy!"

"You wouldn't know! Have you carried yourself?"

"Well, no! Bu--"

"See?"

"Argh! I give up!"

Laughing, Jet stared at her as she pouted. She looked funny yet cute when she did that...

He was about to say something to tease her, yet when she yawned, he thought better of it. She was tired,... and so was he. They needed their rest.

Her eyes dropped, and almost immediately, her head fell onto Jet's shoulder, resting there, as her breathing pattern became even.

Smiling, the silver haired traveler brushed a few strands of her hair away from her face. Wrapping his arms around her waist, he surrendered himslef into a deep slumber.

~~~~~~~~~~

SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECCCCH!

Jet woke up with a start.

"Whoa!!! What the---?!?!"

He couldn't finish his sentence, because right at the moment, the speakers boomed with the operator's voice.

"Attention to all passengers : We are very sorry the inconvinience, but our engine has broke down. Do not panic, we are already in Southfarm, east from Boot Hill. We have already called for carriages, which will take you to the said town. Women and Children first. Once again, we apologize, yet thank you for your consideration."

Everyone, including Jet, sighed with relief hearing that carriages were coming. "Oh well..." The young Drifter muttered, as leaning his head back on the seat. Feeling something heavy on his shoulder, he looked to his side, only to see a familiar face of a certain lady.

He snickered. 'She can sleep through anything.' He thought, as examining her face. 'I bet if a bomb exploded in front of her, she'd still be sleeping.'

He laughed again at the thought.

"...Jet?" Someone suddenly muttured, and he felt her petite frame stir. Her hand was clutching his vest, and her eyelids opened slowly, revealing her bright emerald eyes.

"I thought I'd have to throw a bomb nearby to wake you up," Jet teased, as watching his friend rub and adjust her eyes. "And I was even doubting if that would work."

"Ha-ha." Came the sarcastic reply, as the green orbs of the young lady looked around curiously. People -- mainly women and children -- were lining up near the exit. "What's happening?" She asked, as standing up and looking at her comrade.

Feeling her warmth no longer there, the amethyst eyed boy stretched and stood up as well. "The train's engine broke down. They're making everyone evacuate." He then suddenly grabbed her hand and pushed her into the line. "Women and children first!"

Surprised as she was pushed to the line, Virginia bumped into someone.

"Hey! Watch where you're going!" A female voice exclaimed, and the young honey haired maiden felt herself being pushed away again, only this time, back to her friend's position. She was off balance, mainly because whoever pushed her had shoved too hard. Luckily, Jet was there to catch her.

"Ouch..." Virginia muttured, as rubbing her head. She felt someone's arms holding her, and as she looked up, she saw familiar purple eyes.

"Back from evacuation already?" Jet teased, as he slowly let go of her so that she could recompose herself.

She laughed slightly at his tease before she spoke. "Someone pushed me again... I feel like a pushing bag! First you push me... now everyone pushes me!"

She could see him smile and laugh at her as she spoke, and though she felt quite bad about being pushed, seeing him smile -- something that he usually doesn't do -- made her smile as well. And so as she turned around to see who she bumped, she had to be surprised at the sight that met her eyes.

Even Jet, who also saw who she was looking at, had to be surprised.

The person they were staring at, though, seemed to be irritated at the way they were staring at her. "Don't give me those looks! Hmph!"

Getting out of her trance, Virginia nodded a bit and said her apologies. "Sorry."

Nodding in return, the woman she bumped put her hands on her hips and smiled at them.

"Somehow, I knew I'd run into you guys again."
