A/N: The main crossover will be next chapter. And now, welcome back to Strange Days!
Lucas wanted to kill Vaughn.
"Relax!" Josie commanded, grabbing hold of the boy's shoulders.
"How can I relax Josie? I can't believe he would do something like that!" Lucas said, hyperventilating.
"Lucas! I've already told him EXACTLY what I think of him. He lied to me when he said Victor was not involved. I'm sure of it! But Marshall and Corrine and even Z think it must be too farfetched to even consider!
The clock in the office struck 3.
"Come on, we better get back." Josie said.
"Josie" Lucas said softly pulling her into a hug "Thanks for rescuing me. And don't worry about Vaughn. He obviously is a nasty person who doesn't deserve your thoughts."
"Thanks Lucas, you're right."
She pulled away, looked into his eyes, and was lost within them, for the compassion and love she saw was overwhelming. Suddenly before either knew what they were doing, their lips brushed against the others.
"Josie, I'm sorry!" Lucas said, recoiling as if he had been slapped.
"No," Josie replied, "don't worry about it. I liked it." And with that, she reached up and pulled him into a kiss that was hot and passionate.
After the 3 second shock wore off, Lucas responded, bending down because he was so tall.
"Josie, don't kill me for asking this but...will you go out with me?" Lucas asked shyly.
"Yes, Lucas, I will" Josie replied, and as they leaned in again all Josie could think of was how Lucas had repaired her shattered heart.
"Lucas" Josie said, breaking away from their kiss "we have to return."
"Oh, right okay-"
"Oh, and Lucas, can we keep our relationship private for at least a week or more, even from our friends? I don't want any rumors going around or Vaughn to make life miserable for you, just to spite me."
Lucas sighed. "Fine, I guess, you win. At least you had sound reasoning. Just tell me when you want to tell Marshall, Corinne and Z."
"Deal, now let's go." And with that Josie grabbed Lucas' hand and hit the button on the watch.
"What could have caused the wormhole to open in the first place?" Corrine asked.
"Well, if we take the fact that Vaughn is lying, I think Victor ran a round of tests with his device." Marshall replied. "The wormhole opens whenever Victor runs tests."
"Good point Marshall." Z replied. "Does anyone know how we might proceed?" Z asked.
"Wait for Victor to begin another round of tests and go through." Marshall said.
"That could take days!" Corrine exclaimed.
"What other option do we have! We don't know any other way to access the wormhole, and even when we do we have no idea where Lucas is anyway, so we can use this time to research. It's the best plan we got!" Marshall replied.
" Marshall is right Corrine, we need to figure out where or when he is." Z said.
"How about right here, right now," said a voice from the door.
They all whirled around and saw Josie standing in the doorway with Lucas.
"You're back!" Marshall, Corrine and Z exclaimed.
"How?" Z asked.
Josie held up the watch and said, "Someone left this for me to find in 1987. So I used it to get Lucas."
"Ahh okay. Lucas, what happened?" Z asked. And so Lucas told his tale, leaving out the whole scene with Josie.
After dinner that night, Vaughn went to Josie's room.
"Josie" Vaughn said when she opened the door, "I'm sorry for what I did, can you forgive me?"
"Go away Vaughn! I don't want to speak with you!" Josie exclaimed slamming the door in his face.
Vaughn just sighed and departed for his room.
"Although I know what he did, that was kind of mean Josie. I mean-" Corrine started but Josie cut her off
"He hurt me more than he knows Corrine. I can't forgive him for that right now. Plus he won't say a word about what his father is up to. I just can't Corrine. It's too much to ask."
"I-" but she was cut off by a knock at the door. Josie went to answer it.
"Oh hey Marshall," Josie said as she opened the door.
"Hey, can I talk to Corrine?" Marshall asked shyly.
"Sure, I'll see you later." Josie replied, sending him a wink before walking out the door.
"Corrine, look, I really like you-" Marshall began, but Corrine cut him off.
"Look, Marshall, I like you too, I just couldn't get up to courage to tell you."
"Corrine, will you go out with me?" Marshall asked hesitatingly.
"Yes, of course I will!" Corrine exclaimed happily. And as they leaned in to kiss, all they thought was why had it been so long?
After leaving her room, Josie immediately went to Lucas' room. She knew Marshall and Corrine liked each other, and this gave them a chance to talk with each other, while giving her a perfect cover to see Lucas.
She noticed his door was open a crack, so she slipped in and moved stealthily behind Lucas, who was concentrating on whatever he was doing on his computer.
"Hey" Josie said rubbing his shoulders. As expected, Lucas jumped, but quickly relaxed once he saw who it was.
"Hey Josie" he replied, cautiously giving her a hug.
Josie ignored this and instead brought her lips to his.
"Hey" Josie replied after they had pulled apart "What were you doing?" she asked going to sit on the bed.
"Just some research on Quantum Physics." Lucas replied, sitting on the bed with her.
They talked for a few more minutes, got into a make out session, and eventually fell asleep in each other's arms.
"Good night Corrine." Marshall said giving her a kiss.
"Good night Marshall" Corrine replied, giving him another one before closing the door of her room. Marshall smiled before heading back to his room. He entered, surprised to see it was dark out and in the room. Marshall went to turn the lights on when he saw Josie and Lucas asleep on Lucas' bed. Smirking, he pulled out his cell phone, put it on the night setting and took a picture of them that, surprisingly turned out clear. Smiling to himself, Marshall went to bed.
Josie woke up in the morning to find she was wrapped in Lucas' arms. She smiled and kissed him to wake him up. He jumped.
"Josie?" Lucas inquired, "What are you doing here?"
"Well, I guess we just fell asleep after talking last night." Josie responded.
"Yeah, I guess so."
"Good morning sleepyheads, what were you two up to last night?" Marshall asked coming into the room.
With a half glance at Lucas, she said she would cover and she said:
"Well, I came in here to talk to Lucas last night after giving you and Corrine your privacy and I guess we just fell asleep. As to our positions, I guess we just shifted in our sleep." Josie covered convincingly.
"Okay, that story passes. Good morning Corrine" Marshall said, giving Corrine a kiss as she walked through the door.
"Morning" Corrine replied. "Josie, Lucas, you really should get ready, it is 8:30 already."
"Okay" Lucas replied jumping up. Josie and Corrine left as Marshall turned to Lucas.
"So" Marshall said "Did anything happen last night?"
"No" Lucas replied, going a bit red and hoping Marshall wrote it off to being embarrassed. "My story is the same as Josie's.
"Ahh... okay" Marshall replied, and with that they got ready for school.
After classes, Lucas rushed with his latest invention into the science office. This broadcasted a Morse code message on a wide range of radio frequencies. It was meant to detect alien life. If a message was responded to, then the indicator would flash and the message would be decoded and printed out. He placed a second device, hidden, outside. This would transmit the waves and fire out x-rays to get a picture if a message was responded to. A wireless transmitter linked this apparatus with the base in the science office. Satisfied with his work he went to hang out with the rest of the club.
A/N: I decided to put in a little JxL and CxM fluff in there. The whole machine thing I made up off the top of my head, but I'm sure you can guess why I put it in. Anyway, the main crossover is next chapter. Also, I reworked a bit of chapter one because I didn't, upon further review, like the way the whole Victor/Vaughn thing turned out. Please review!
