Second Chapter!
Welcome to the month of hope...
Sprx enter to the command center, he was freezing. Nova was asleep in the large sofa infront of the TV; the signal was perfect now.
"Great… I work for nothing"
Sprx sit next to Nova head, he took the control and watch TV. After some hours, the dark appear over Shugazoom, Sprx yawn. He looks his clock.
"12:45 AM…" Sprx saw Nova's face.
"She has a beautiful smile…" Sprx thought. He saw the marker in the table in front of him. He took it and go to the Nova's plaster and start writing in the inside part. Sprx finish writing and cover the marker. He continues watching TV, he couldn't fell asleep, he knew that he had to be there for Nova. If she fell or something goes wrong he has to be there. At 2AM Sprx go to the Nova's head side, he tried to sleep a little.
Some hours later…
"Wake up!" Nova yelled.
"Gah...!" Sprx jump from his sit.
Nova was sit next to him. "You have to do the breakfast, I can't do it now"
"But… What if I poison the team?"
"It's your problem, not my fault you…"
"Ok!... I'm going! There's no way you can wake up without being so aggressive?"
Nova just change channel in answer.
Sprx go to the kitchen and start to do the "breakfast".
The team starts to wake up one by one. The only thing that they think was breakfast after waking up. Sprx go to the table were Chiro, Otto and Gibson were already there, Chiro sleeping over the table, Gibson reading the newspaper and Otto claiming for food.
"Here is it!" Sprx put the breakfast in the center of the table.
"What's that…? Gibson asks putting the newspaper away.
"Huh? It my omelet, try it" Sprx said showing a formless yellow mass.
"You wish!"
"Oh please! Only one bite"
"I swear it just blink me" Chiro said with fear.
"Breakfast! At last" Otto said putting his fork on the omelet and eating it "Delicious!"
"I think I'm not going to take breakfast" Gibson said seeing Otto eat.
"Same here" Chiro said raising his hand.
Both go out the kitchen.
"Want to go eat outside?" Chiro ask to Gibson.
"Sure!"
An hour later…
Sprx go to the command center, he saw the lonely corner of it, he walk to Nova.
"Hey!"
"Yes?"
"Want to go to select a Christmas tree?"
"I though Otto was who do that"
"Want to have the same tree of last year?"
"You're right… But…"
"It will only take a few minutes, please!"
"But… It's cold outside"
"Not really, its 3Pm, sun is shinning"
"Ok…"
Sprx took a pair of crutches, and help Nova to raise from her sit. The go out cyber robot in way to the Shugazoom Park. Lots of families were there choosing their Christmas trees. Sprx try to stay in Nova's speed, as she couldn't move too fast.
"You like this one?" Sprx ask pointing a beautiful tree.
"It's perfect for cyber robot!" Nova said with a smile. Nova tried to get near the tree, but the grass was humid and the crutch slide making Nova fell.
Nova close her eyes expecting a hit, she didn't feel anything, she open her eyes, to see Sprx next to her, his hand was down her head and his legs down her body. Their faces were just a few inches from each other.
Nova blush a little.
"Thanks…" was the only thing that Nova could say.
"No problem…" Sprx answer turning around to don't let Nova see his expression of shy.
Sprx help Nova to get her feet back on the ground, he calls the guy that was there.
"We want this tree… can you bring it to the cyber robot later?" Sprx was still thinking in what just happen.
"Sure" the man said and starts cutting the tree.
Nova and Sprx go out the park and back to the cyber robot, they don't said a word, their faces still blushing, Sprx had to admit it, that was the moment that he had been more close to Nova. He couldn't take out of his mind her face.
"She is so dam pretty" Sprx thought.
They enter to the cyber robot, the silence took the room, and they know they wanted each other, but they had a "problem".
"What would the team think?" both ask to themselves.
The shy was the real problem. They were sitting there, watching the TV, it was painful to turn around and see each other. They couldn't describe what they were feeling, Sprx tried to get closer to Nova. She saw Sprx intentions, but she doesn't do anything. He finally was next to Nova, she blush like mad lowering her head.
"Well…." Sprx said moving his arm over his head trying to put it around Nova.
"We are back!" Otto yelled as Chiro, Antauri and Gibson enter the room.
Sprx froze and feel a shock coming from his spinal cord; his arm was at half way. Nova was too shy to speak. They don't turn around it was too obvious what was happening to make them change their minds.
"Maybe… we arrive in a bad moment" Chiro said as he saw Sprx and Nova.
