Of Love of One
Chapter 2
No one saw any trace of a particular red head all day. Jim would walk up to members of the crew sporadically throughout the day to see if they had seen any sign if Gene but the answers always ended up negative. And since it was about dinner time Mel was making dinner but still no sign of Gene. Jim was staring to think that it was something that he had said to Gene that morning that had caused his disappearance. But by now Gene should've been used to Jim blowing up at him for not getting something done so that couldn't be it. What could it be? Did it have something to do with the kiss? That had the likely hood of being the main reason of the absence of the red head. But what about it? There were many things about the kiss that many have caused Gene to shut himself away from the others but what was it? Was it that Gene had meant it? Was it that he hadn't meant it? Was he just so asleep that it didn't even register to him that he had done it? Was he embarrassed about the fact that he had kissed Jim? Was he worried about Jim's full response? Man, way too many questions. Way too many possibilities.
Jim sighed as he rounded the corner of the hallway to Gene's quarters. He might as well check if Gene was back there before they started eating dinner without him.
He gently knocked on the big metal door and upon hearing no response he quietly opened it. As he peered inside he found nothing but emptiness. No red head present, just the messy room that had been deserted many hours ago. Again Jim sighed and closed the heavy door behind him.
"Where in the world did you go?" He mumbled as he ran a hand through his blonde hair. "You're making me worry about you, you bastard." 'No sense in looking anymore, dinner is almost ready. If Gene really wants food he knows where to find it.' Jim thought to himself as he headed back to the kitchen.
"What's gotten into me today?" a single hand ran through red hair.
Gene was sitting on some metal cargo boxes in the hull of the ship. After he had finished replacing the wire he had retreated to the hull. 'No one would want to see me now because I kissed him.' was his reasoning for going and staying down there.
"Man, I feel so horrible." Another hand was pushed through his hair. "I didn't give any explanation, I just did it. God..."
He was all the way in the back of the hull and relatively high up on the boxes so it would be pretty hard to see him if anyone was looking for him. But then who would be looking for him now? Let alone talk to him. He and Mel had drifted apart little by little and now there was really nothing between them except a shaky friendship. And then why would Aisha and Suzuka be looking for him? So all that was left was Jim. And there was no way in hell, at least in Gene's mind, that that particular kid would be looking for him. Huh, kid. That's what Jim is, a kid. An 11 year old kid.
"Oh God." He pulled his knees to his face and buried his face in them. "Jim's just a kid. Now look what I did. I probably made him so confused...God."
He buried his face deeper as his brain expanded upon the problem at hand. It was right after he woke up that it had happened. He was still half asleep when he had kissed the blonde. But he was semi awake, so why didn't he stop himself? He wasn't sure but the swift motion of his arm and the kiss seemed like second nature to him. What was his brain trying to say to him? Did he actually have feelings for the little guy?
"My life was simple 'til now." He banged his head against the hull. "Why did he have to be a kid? Why couldn't he have been at least 5 years older?" he shook his head in confusion. "I don't know anything anymore."
A/N: WOW! Did I write that? I guess I did. I didn't think I was going to show too much
of Gene's really deep feeling but I guess I kinda did. Wow. On a happier note: I'm
ever so happy! I actually got a review the day I posted my story! Yippee! Big huge
thanks to JojoBlond for being the first to review my story! runs up and glomps
JojoBlond THANK YOU!! And a big thank you to all that read!! I've been
thinking and I've come to a conclusion. I believe that once I hit 4 or 5 reviews I will
update again!! Yup, you heard me right! Now, the only reason I'm doing this is
because I want to see how many people are actually reading my Gene/Jimmy story.
As long as there are at least two people reading I shall update! Sound good? Ok!
Willow out! See you on the other side of sanity, if I ever get there that is! YAY! =3
