Red and Black

by dreamfighter920

One with black hair and one with red, both alike in dignity, on an island where we lay our scene, where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. A pair of star-cross'd lovers live their lives whose secrets they must hide from their families and each other, will Gordon and his adventurous love be accepted? Gordon/OC, rated M for swearing and smut, a gift for Artemisdesari.

Red and Black - Chapter 2

Hey people, it's me again; no, I'm not dead I was just at boarding school.

Thanks for the replies; they mean so much to me so keep sending in your thoughts!

I'm also assuming that you guys are freaking out about the new trailer (I'll be reading this again in 3 years and remembering these times) but if SOMEHOW you haven't seen it yet here it is: watch?v=6y2hFqgtjLk

It will be another week before I can post another chapter because it's the last week of term but after that it's Easter and I can post loads of new stuff, and I have a particularly exciting part planned to be uploaded on my birthday so I will leave you with your imaginations if you want to wonder about what that's going to be. The next couple of chapters will be about establishing the backstory behind Tim and Gordon before we get to the excitingly scandalous relationship stuff, but it will all be ready very soon.

So without further ado, Thunderbirds Are Go!

When Penny woke the next morning all she could think of was the possibility of this young love, that and how to convince Jeff to let Gordon go to England. Sat in the library later that day, she decided to wing it; after all, she was naturally good at persuading Jeff. She raised her compact to face level and waited for her signal to reach the island.

On the island its inhabitants were leisurely relaxing in the sun, spending time together uninterrupted by International Rescue was becoming less and less common and they cherished it. Jeff wandered to his office in search of book and saw Penny's eyes flash conveniently timed on the wall.

"Go ahead Penny." He greeted in his usual way.

"Hello Jeff," she began, hoping that luck would be in her favour.

"It's good to hear from you Penny, what can I do for you?"

"Well I was wondering, when was the last time Gordon had any leave?"

Jeff furrowed his brow slightly, he was willing to admit to this was a particularly odd question.

"A few months ago, why? Did you have something in mind for Gordon?"

Gordon appeared in the doorway of the office with a towel wrapped around him, but still dripping from the pool.

"What's in mind for me? Oh hi, Penelope!"

"Hello Gordon," she hoped that Gordon being here would give her a better chance.

"I heard about an Olympic reunion in London happening next week, it's for athletes from your year and I thought you might be interested in going, and you're very welcome to stay with me."

"Sure Penelope, I'd love to go! That is if dad will give me the leave." Gordon turned his head to look at his father hopefully. Gordon and Penelope could see the thought in Jeff face, wondering if he could spare Gordon for the time.

"Of course I'll let you go, Gordon. It's been a long time since you saw anyone from the Olympics."

"Good, then I will expect you tomorrow."

Penelope later thought about her plan, which was going far better than she had hoped already. Now, how to get Gordon and Tim to meet? Penny knew that this would probably be down to chance as she didn't want to be there to make things awkward; she would make her excuses to Tim, though it was probably for the better. All she could do now was hope and pray that her plan would work. But despite this, one question remained: should she try and found out more about what happened between Gordon and Tim or not? Perhaps she could initiate a conversation on the subject with Gordon, but that may be a giveaway to what she already knew; and she certainly wasn't going to get anything else out of Tim.

On the other side of the earth, Gordon wandered aimlessly around his bedroom. He was meant to be packing, but his heart was racing at the thought of meeting Tim again. 'Does she know? Is that why?' He thought. Gordon pressed his hand to his own lips in remembrance of what he remembered. He looked out to the vastness of the Pacific Ocean from his bedroom window and said to himself,

"I wonder what he's doing now."

Well I hope that you enjoyed that! Please R&R for invisible Gordon socks.
