Chapter 2-Who am I?
*NORMAL POV*
Tamora had a pretty successful day. This whole 'sergeant' thing wasn't that hard at all. It was actually pretty darn easy. All she practically had to do was shout orders at a bunch of grown men. It was actually kind of funny. Considering the fact that these men were twice her size.
But all day she kept on getting distracted. The game cabinet that was right across from her was that Fix-It's guys game. To be truthful, she actually thought that the guy was pretty darn cute. He just had that way about him. Heck! He looked even cuter when he was in 8-bit form. Huge smile and everything...
She shook her head when the next quarter dropped. She'd daydream later. But Tamora couldn't help but get a little antsy to get out of her game and meet up with the little fixer...
*TAMORA'S POV*
The day went by relatively fast. Thank goodness. But the whole reason to why I wanted to hurry out of Hero's Duty was to meet up with that Fix-It guy. He seemed to know a whole lot about how I 'lost' my memory. I also wanted to see him because he was ridiculously adorable. I mean, I'm not trying to sound like a high school girl or anything, but, come on.
That guy is cute!
Anyway, I grabbed what I needed, which consisted of my cruiser and handy gun, and left Hero's Duty. And guess who's waiting for me at the entrance...
That's right. Mister 'I'm oh so cute' himself. What was his first name? Felix? Yeah, that's it. Felix.
Huh.
I like that name. Mod darn it! Even his names adorable. Why is everything about him so...innocent? I smiled and waved. "Hi Felix? It's Felix, right?"
Felix chuckled. "Yes, ma'am. And you do know your name is Tamora Jean Calhoun Fi-uh, Calhoun. Heh, heh." He chuckled nervously. I brushed off my suspicions and laughed a little. "I'm just making sure, pint-size."
He blushed.
I guess that if he knew me before this then I always called him that. Probably trying to be nice. But whether I was or not, he seemed to like being called things like that. Or at least he didn't mind it.
His smile widened. I blushed and smiled right back. That was when I noticed that I was a lot taller then him. But it didn't feel awkward. It felt...right. Very right.
"So, ma'am," Felix began. I heard him and was torn out of my little dreamland. "May I have the honor of showing you around the arcade?" His sweet southern accent was enough to make me say yes right off the bat. But for some odd reason it took me a while before I answered. 'Great, I already made an idiot out of myself. Or...maybe I haven't.'
Once again, I let my thoughts get the best of me. I nodded and took his hand. Which oddly enough fit perfectly in mine. "Well then, we should get going. The arcade just closed so I might have enough time to show you a few games. Probably the more smaller ones first. And then, if you're up to it, we can check out some of the bigger ones tomorrow. Is that okay with you?"
"Sounds great to me! Hey, is the arcade opened tomorrow?"
He raised an eyebrow. "No, why?"
I shrugged and grinned a little. "I just wanted to go to your game and see what it's like. From the small summary you gave me yesterday, it seems interesting. I might like it."
Felix's smile turned into huge grin. "S-sure! If you want..."
"Yup! Now come on, fun size. Let's go."
*FELIX'S POV*
Just when I think that there's no hope at all for my Tammy-Jean, she prevails. Like always. I really don't know why I doubt her when I do. I should know by know that no matter what happens and how bad things get, when she says or does something to let me know that everything'll be alright...everything will be fine.
And I think that she already fell for me. Even though that might sound a bit weird, I think that's what happened.
Tamora is more clingy to me then usual. Which isn;t a bad thing. Not at all. I just wish that what had happened to her didn't happen at all. Though I have to say it is fun to see her fall hard for me all over again.
The woman even aloud me to hold her hand the first time I tried!
I remember when her and I were looking for Ralph when he went Turbo, she seemed as if she hated my guts. But I knew she didn't. Instinct I guess. And the fact that she was the one to kiss me square on the lips. Well, it was more so an open mouth kiss...but that's to much detail...
Anyway, the only thing that mattered to me right now was the fact that Tamora was warming up to me. Fast too. That was good.
"So Fix-It..." She started off as I led her into by game as soon as we hopped off of the tram. "Yes?"
Right before she was going to answer, she was cut off by what seemed to be the scenery to my game, Fix-It Felix Jr. Tamora's eyes wondered around the landscape and her mouth was open in awe. She seemed to love my game. Well, that's good.
"Wow..." She breathed. I smiled wide and walked in front of her in order to lead her around my game. "This game...it's so...Wow..." She was at a total loss for words. She loved it. And I loved that she did. She then started to laugh. Gosh her laugh made my stomach feel tight. The honeyglows on my face burned bright. Especially when she turned to face me and grinned wider.
"Well...?" I asked; knowing her response already. She smirked and pulled me along the grassy pathway into the forest.
*NORMAL POV*
"Wow...that's a pretty long time for a game to be plugged in, isn't it?"
Felix chuckled. "Well, if you consider thirty years and ten months a long time then yes."
Tamora and Felix were on their backs as they looked up at the always star filled sky of Fix-It Felix Jr. The tops of their heads were touching and their arms were behind their heads propping them upright. Tamora sighed. Felix heard this and raised an eyebrow in concern. "Whats wrong?" He asked. Tamora shrugged. "Nothing..."
"Tammy, I know you a lot better than you might think I do."
"Exactly!" She suddenly exclaimed frightening Felix a little. "Exactly what...?"
Tamora rolled her eyes. "Felix, how come you know so much about me...but you can't tell me? I mean who am I? What is my purpose? Because as far as I know, I'm nothing special. Just another video game character. There has to be hundreds, if not thousands, of me out their. Why are all of you so concerned about me?"
Tears brimmed Felix's eyes. But he quickly wiped them away and smiled to himself.
"You're more important than you think, Tamora. Just remember that..."
I just had to contribute to this story. But I do have to say that I was kinda surprised that Felix came up with this idea in the first place. But it actually isn't a bad idea. I think it's pretty darn good, to be honest. Anyway, hope you guys are liking it so far. Also, me and Fix-It decided on sharing chapters. So he will be doing the next one.
