A/N: Here's the next chapter!

Zenon woke quickly the next morning and hurriedly dressed, wondering how the day was going to go as she entered the living room.

Astrid Kar looked up as Zenon walked into the room. "Good morning, Sweetie! I know it's Saturday and all, but your dad and I are going to be working in the lab for a while today. We are reaching a critical point in one of our experiments."

Zenon nodded looking a bit annoyed.

"What's wrong, honey?"

Heaving a sigh Zenon flopped onto the sofa beside her mother, who was already dressed and ready to go out the door. "Margie came home yesterday."

Astrid looked a tad bit confused. "And that's a bad thing? Did the two of you have a fight about something?"

"Kind of." Zenon mumbled.

"What?"

"Nebula and I went to meet her shuttle to welcome her back home, and when she came out the doors, someone else came with her."

"Who?"

"Greg." Was Zenon's one worded reply.

Astrid took a deep breath. "Would this be the same Greg who dumped you?"

Zenon winced. "The very one."

"Zenon, you are going to have to forgive him."

"I know. I have. I was up a long time last night thinking about. I have forgiven Greg. It's just that I'm not looking forward to this outing with them, because I think it's going to be awkward."

"Outing?"

"Yeah. We're all supposed to hang out together today. Nebula, Orion, Margie, Greg, Me, and Lynx, if she can make it. Greg is staying with Orion by the way."

Raising an eyebrow, Astrid tried to maintain a smile.

"What's so funny?"

"Greg staying with Orion. Or should I say your old boyfriend staying with the guy who wants to be your new boyfriend."

"Mom! It's not like that with Orion and me. We are totally just friends."

Astrid just laughed.

Zenon started to protest, but Astrid held her hands up. "I believe that you are just friends, but I still think that Orion would like to be your boyfriend."

"Then why hasn't he asked me out?" Zenon asked.

Astrid shrugged. "Honestly I have no idea. But I do think that he likes you."

Zenon's shoulders dropped. "I don't know, but I had better get going. The gang is meeting for breakfast."

"All right, sweetie, I'm going to the lab now. Have a good day."

With a hug from her mom, Zenon was out the door.

Calling occasional greetings to people as she passed, Zenon soon arrived at the doors to the mess module. Taking a deep fortifying breath, she pushed them open and entered. She immediately spotted her group. They were all sitting around one large table, eating and laughing. She didn't immediately join them, but instead went and got her tray of food. Taking another deep breath, she threaded her way between all of the other tables to get to theirs. "Hey, gang!"

Everyone looked up at her, including Greg. "Hey, Z!"

Nebula patted the seat beside her. "I saved this seat for you."

"Thanks, Neb."

Nebula nodded and everyone started eating again, but it felt a little strained. Zenon noticed looks being thrown by some of them, from her to Greg, from Greg to her. Finally Zenon set her fork down and eyed Greg. "Greg."

Greg's head shot up when he heard her say his name. "Yeah?"

"Can I talk to you for a minute? Alone?"

Looking kind of nervous, Greg agreed and stood up. "Excuse us."

They all nodded but looked more than a little curious.

Zenon led the way out of the mess module and stopped in a quiet part of the hallway, then turned and faced Greg. "I know we haven't talked since you broke up with me."

"About that." Greg began.

"No, please, Greg. Let me finish. I just wanted to let you know, that I forgive you. No matter what reason you had for breaking up with me like that. I forgive you."

Greg reached for her hand and held it in his. "Zenon, I'm sorry for the way I broke up with you. It was really bad. The reason I broke up with you was because I was scared. I know it's no excuse and it sounds stupid, but that's the reason."

"Scared of what?"

"I was scared because I felt like I was falling in love with you and I've never been in love."

"You loved me?"

"I think I do love you."

Zenon just stared at him.

Greg took her other hand and started leaning in. His lips were just about to touch hers, when Orion rounded the corner and let out a gasp.

Zenon jerked away from Greg and whipped around to stare at Orion.

Orion just stood there for a second gazing at Zenon and then turned around and walked away.
