Chapter 1: Chinese Takeout and Heated Arguments
Faye Valentine sat tensely on the ratty yellow couch, desolation brimming in her emerald orbs. She grimly pulled her thin frame into a ball, trying hard to defeat the cold aura around her. After many futile attempts to keep the warmth inside her, Faye had finally given up and leniently threw her tired body onto the musty old couch, the cold air stinging all the open skin on her body.
She ignored the frigid state her body had become and stretched her body out, loosening every every tense muscle in her body. She had been sitting there for over an hour, waiting for some sign of life on the isolated ship the Bebop had become, but to her grief, the only thing there was the white- and-tan form, continuing to lick at the limp arm she had wearily slung over the side of the couch, barely brushing the cold metal floor.
" Damn it, Ein! Where the hell did everyone go?" The small dog whimpered lightly, as if he was answering her question disdainfully.
" Oh, that's right.... Ed went with Jet to get supplies..." Faye paused, and looked the naive animal in the eye, " But where the hell did lunkhead go?"
Ein whimpered once again and cocked his head to the side, before he resumed licking Faye's hand.
Faye wasn't really quite sure why she was asking where Spike had went, usually she wouldn't give a shit what he did, or where he went, but something inside her was screaming out to her, something... untold.
" Damn dog..." Faye sneered, before kicking the dog in the side, causing the innocent animal to scurry away quickly. She hated it when he insisted on cleansing her with his inadequate licking. She would never understand why dogs did that, or even how they enjoyed doing something so futile, it was quite nasty, actually.
Faye sighed heavily and shut her eyes tightly, trying hard to constrict the annoying bright lights piercing through her enervated lids. She sighed again, trying hard to drown out the annoying clicking sound the ravaged ceiling fan was making.
Man, the Bebop could be so damn annoying sometimes.....
" Hopefully Spike went out to get a bounty...." Faye mumbled to herself, forcing the hunger pains out of her empty stomach.
There again, she was thinking about Spike. So images of him played through her mind, and she was beginning to get frustrated. 'Why the hell so suddendly would I want company from a moron like that?'
" Oh, you know you missed me..." Spike's voice rang through the Bebop, as if he had been reading Faye's mind all along.
Fayes lids sprung open and her eyes widened. Yay! Someone's finally home! Wait a minute... no, that's just Spike.
" How long have you been standing there?" Faye eyed the lanky frame standing in the doorway of the ' sitting room'.
" Long enough to hear you complian about being hungry," Spike answered dully, holding up a box of Chinese take-out teasingly.
" I wasn't complaining!" Faye paused, the half-full box of actually appealing food catching her eye, " Wait a second... is that?"
" Yeah, and it's your faavorite..." Spike moved closer and dangled the box over Faye's head, tormenting her purposely.
" Oooo! Food!" Faye reached for the box longingly, but Spike snaked it away from her and hugged the box to his chest.
" I never said I was sharing!" Spiked laughed, shoving a fork-full of the embalming food in his mouth.
" Jet would be so pissed if he found out you were sneaking a meal behind his back!" Faye was convinced she would try and make him feel guilty, even though she would do the same thing if she had money for it.
" Why in the hell do you think I did it while he was gone? God, women can be so dense sometimes..." Spike rolled his eyes and chuckled lightly at his joke.
" You're telling me you've been gone for two hours, and the whole time you've been eating Chinese take-out?!" Faye sat up, looking Spike directly in the eye.
" Are you kidding me? Where the hell do you think I got the money to even buy this?" Spike rolled his eyes again, and shoved another fork-ful in his mouth.
" You captured a bounty behind our back?" Faye was beginning to get a little annoyed by the teasing bounty hunter.
" Hey, every once in a while I need some money for myself..." Spike answered innocently.
" How much?!" Faye was furious now, grasping the collar of Spike's shirt tightly.
" What's it to you?"
" UGH!! I hate you Spike Spiegal!!"
" Wow, I'm blessed..." Spike commented insensibly, shoving himself away from Faye.
Faye sighed heavily and threw herself back onto the couch, sprawling her body out on the old battered couch.
" Move, I was gonna sit here," Spike said flatly, sitting on top of Faye's legs.
" OW! Get OFF!!!" Faye tried hard to struggle her body away, but Spike's ass kept digging deeper into her legs everytime she moved.
" Oh, you know you want me," Spike said, placing his chinese box on the coffee table and reaching down to hold Faye's struggling legs.
" I hate you! I hate you! I hate you!" Faye yelled, pounding her fists into Spike's arms.
" Is that a new poem you've made? It's soo touching," Spike's voice was dripping with sarcasm.
" Ugh, you better let me go!! Or the chinese gets it!!" Faye yelled reaching over and grasping the chinese take-out tightly.
" Hey, that's mine!!" Spike yelled, pouncing on top of Faye and reaching for the box.
And for some strange reason, a crimson blush crept upon Faye's face as she noticed the lanky body sprawled out on top of her. She bit her lip nervously and turned her face away, clutching the box to her chest.
" FAYE!!" Jet's voiced boomed throughout the Bebop, startling the two, " Are you eating fast-food meals behind my back?!"
" What?! No!! This stupid thing is lunkhead's!!" Faye yelled, pushing Spike onto the ground, chucking the chinese box at his head.
" Whatever, don't lie Faye...." Spike insisted on acting as if he was the innocent one.
" WHAT!?!" Faye's voice became loud and brassy, and she threw her arms in the air furiously.
" You know that stuff makes you fat..." Spike grinned teasingly, and dumped the box in her lap.
" Will you guys please STOP! I don't even give a shit! Just tell me, where the hell did you get the money for it?" Jet yelled, shaking his head.
" SPIKE WENT BOUNTY HUNTING WITHOUT US!" Faye's immature voice jumped in quickly, and she pointed an accusing finger at Spike.
" Yeah, whatever...." Spike said, crossing his arms, and sighing loudly.
" Oh, well okay, just tell me next time when you're gonna leave," Jet sighed, turning towards the kitchen.
" WHAT!!!!" Faye yelled jumping up from the couch, " If I did that you would've begged for half the bounty!"
" Women..." Spike said, chuckling to himself.
" Oh, shut-up you asshole! I didn't even get any of the chinese!" Faye yelled, motioning to the spilled noodles on the floor.
" YEAH!? Because it's not yours you mooch!" Spike yelled back, inching towards Faye's face and narrowing his eyes at her.
" It's called sharing you selfish-ass!"
" Yeah, you would know..."
" Are you calling me a slut!?"
" What?! I never said that! Well, if you insist on calling yourself that, then..."
" Ooo! Ed sees chinese food!" Ed chirped happily, shoving her way in- between Spike and Faye, and licking the noodles off the ground.
" Ewww..."
" Hey Ed, while you're at it, why don't you take this trash out as well..." Spike joked, shoving Faye lightly with his elbow.
" Faye-Faye is trash-trash?" The naive little girl cocked her head to the side, confusion etched all over her face.
" HEY! Wait a second! Where the hell do you think you're going?!" Faye yelled noticing Spike make his way into the hallway.
" I'm gonna take a shower, being near you has made me really dirty..." Spike chuckled, and waved a hand over his shoulder, continuing his way towards the bathroom.
" Will you shut-up!! What did I ever do to you?" Faye yelled, running after him and grasping his arm tightly.
" Me shut-up?! You're the one who's mouth is constantly running!" Spike screamed, shoving Faye against the wall and pinning her tightly against it. Faye's jaw dropped, ready to yell back some vain comment, but to her suprise, nothing would come out, she just sat and stared back at him, a slight blush staining her cheeks.
" Are you gonna say something damn it?!"
" I-I.... you... why... you hate me?" Faye tried hard to gather her words, but they just kept scattering away from her. She shut her eyes tightly, ready to take in another crude comment.
" I don't hate you...." Spike finally said, after a long distant silence.
" I thought for sure you'd hate me, I mean I'm not Julia... of course you'd hate me, right?" After finally realizing what she had said, Faye quickly covered her mouth and turned her face away. Why the hell was she bringing up Julia? Nothing he said even had anything to do with Julia, so why the hell would she even think of her? It wasn't jealousy... or was it?
" Why do you always have to bring up Julia!!" Spike yelled, shoving her harder into the wall.
' Always?! What the hell is he talking about?!'
" Spike what the hell are you talking about?! I NEVER bring up Julia!" Faye hissed, trying hard to struggle out of his death grip.
" Stop talking about her! It's none of your business!!"
" Well, it's not my fault you'll never be able to get over her! And besides what in the hell do you see in her!! She never loved you! I know it!" Faye stopped struggling, and looked Spike directly in the eye, narrowing her bright green orbs slightly.
" You don't know anything! Will you just shut-up! You know nothing about my past!"
" At least you have a past Spike, I have nothing! I have no childhood memories, and have NO ONE! Do you have any idea what it's like not even knowing your real name?!" Faye screamed, tears brimming in her eyes.
" Yeah, well call yourself lucky..." Spike said, lowering his voice to barely a whisper.
" Lucky? Spike, I've never been loved, and no one has ever loved me... at least you've felt that emotion, I don't have the faintest hint of what love is like..." Tears were freely falling from her crimson-tainted cheeks, and she tried hard to hold back the sobs.
A sudden hint of guilt took over Spike and he loosened his grip on Faye. He stared deeply into her eyes searching for any trace of deciet. She had never been so openly to Spike like this, and it almost scared him. But then again, he had never bared his emotions like this to her either....
' What is going on here!?'
" W-why.... why are you staring at me like that?" Faye's soft voice broke Spike away from his thoughts, and he shook his head lightly.
" What?" Spike quickly backed away from her and turned his face away from her.
" Nothing... Nevermind..." Faye said, running her fingers through her violet tresses.
There was a long desolate silent between them. There was nothing but the sound of Jet's cooking down the hallway, and the faint sound of Ed's tomato. Faye shuffled her body nervously and glanced up Spike, blushing slightly.
" I'm sorry...." Both of their voices rang in in unison, breaking the dead silence.
Wait a second, this isn't right... since when did Spike and Faye apologize to each other? This is definitely a first....
" Oooo! Faye-Faye and Spike-person are blushing!" Ed's voice sang happily as she cart-wheeled her way in-between them and slammed the bathroom door behind her, singing something askew and off-key.
" Hey! I was gonna take a shower!" Spike ran towards the bathroom, and pounded on the door impatiently.
" Spike-person must wait! Ed was here first!" Ed giggled happily, playfully pounding on the bathroom door.
Faye chuckled lightly at the aggravated look that had taken over Spike's face. She blushed slightly and pushed a stray violet hair out of her face.
" What are you laughing at?! It's your fault! I should've been in the bathroom along time a go!" Spike yelled, crossing his arms immaturely.
Yep...
Everything was just like before. But this time, Faye didn't feel like arguing with Spike... Instead she just smiled and shook her head lightly, slowly making her way towards her bedroom.
And it was like nothing had happened.
It was just like before.....
