Chapter 2: Vacation
Tony held a thermometer in one hand and a wet rag in the other as he briskly walked down the halls and stopped at the beginning of Hammer's room. He sighed deeply then went in. Hammer was asleep on the bed. Without a second's hesitation, he stuck the thermometer into hammer's mouth. After a few seconds he picked it up again. It was a high number. Only to be expected. After all, Hammer had called in sick today and the Elsa was a sitting duck. Tony glared at the thermometer, as if mentally making it change its mind about Hammer's fever. Tony looked down on the sleeping Hammer and was determined to get him better. He lifted up his bangs and kissed him lightly on the forehead. Hammer jumped up, eyes small and frightened.
"Tony! What the hell was that for?!" Hammer yelled. Tony's face got even angrier.
"You were awake?!" He said back, "you were pretending to sleep?!"
"That hardly matters! You kissed me! Now I'm gay!" Hammer cried.
"Oh shut-up! Doncha know guys can kiss each other's foreheads? It's totally normal!" Tony said, standing up and pointing down at the disgusted Hammer.
"Nu-uh! I've never heard of forehead kissing! Arg, how can I live with myself?!" Hammer wiped his forehead with his sleeve. Tony couldn't stand it; he shook his head in disbelief.
"Listen, my ma told me that kissing your forehead was like feeling it with your hand to see ifn it was hot, but it worked better!"
"Oh, your mother said it then. Well it's perfectly normal for a mother to kiss her child, now isn't it?" Hammer said yet again. Tony growled.
"Ok, Hammer. I just came in here see how you were doin' and this is how ya thank me. Well then, whatever! I'm goin' back to the Captain, ya liar." Tony said, turning around furiously to the door.
"No... Tony! Don't go!" Hammer called, "I...I just needed a break from work, it's been killing me." Tony stopped and turned around.
"I won't tell the Captain if you don't tell chaos about the...you know." Tony said in a quieted voice. Hammer nodded. As if on cue, chaos came into the room.
"Hello, guys. I heard yelling, is everything all right?" chaos said in his usual calm voice. Hammer nodded as Tony came back in completely and lay down on the bed above Hammer's. chaos sat down on the chair Tony had sat in. He smiled at both of their awkward faces and then sighed a bit.
"Since Hammer's sick, no one can work on the Elsa. Now we all have a lot of free time." chaos said, as if leading on to something, "I thought I'd come here to comfort you."
"Thanks." Hammer said, looking away, "That's really nice."
"Hey! I didn't get any thanks! Oh ya, give everything to the pixie because he came in while you were awake. Ya, I see how it is." Tony muttered from above Hammer. Hammer kicked Tony's bed, almost tossing him out of it.
"Thanks a lot, Romeo." Hammer chuckled. Tony looked over the side of the bed with his head rested on his crossed arms, ignoring what Hammer had just said.
"So chaos, whatcha plan ta does? I never imagined no work would be so damned boring." Tony yawned.
"Well," chaos said enthusiastically, as though he was just waiting for someone to ask, "I thought maybe I could read a book to Hammer."
"Ooh, what book?" Hammer said. Tony yawned again. chaos lifted a real book up in his hands. One with pages and a cover like they used to make them before computers consumed everyone's life.
"This one." chaos said, reading the cover, 'Sleeping Beauty'."
"Oh no." Tony moaned. Hammer laughed a bit as chaos began to read the story.
So for a vacation this one wasn't what you'd call a wonderful time...but it was better than working.
"And they lived happily ever after..."
AN: yup. Another chapter. and you guessed right, I'm playing sick today. I can't wait until something else average happens to me that can happen to the crew. These guys are real fun to right about! Oh yaaaa!
