Chapter 21
Digger wasn't the only one being teased.
For days afterwards, the rest of the team wouldn't leave it alone.
Well except, surprisingly, Finn. Who became sulky whenever it was brought up.
'Speak his name and he shall come. Creeper!' this came to her head as said devil appeared in her doorway. She noted that he didn't seem as cocky as usual. In fact, he looked rather nervous and sad and also looked like he hadn't slept in days.
"So, you and Davey Digger huh?"
Blinx eyed him closely "You finally decide to jump on the band wagon?" he jumped a little "Uh no! Just curious!" she shook her head "Nah! Digger's just a friend" he nodded but stayed quiet while she moved about her room just doing little things "Wait, the what wagon?"
She shook her head "Honestly I thought you would be the one to start it rolling"
"No seriously, what wagon?" she looked at him sceptically but said nothing about "What Wagon".
"Why do you even care about who I do or do not go out with?"
He tried to act cool when he replied "I don't. I just wanted to jump on the bad wagon" she raised a brow at him 'I've been doing that a lot lately'
"The term is band wagon and you're a jerk"
'Or at least you like to act like it!'
He moved into the room, the door sliding closed behind him "I am not!" his rebuttal was quiet but urgent and almost sounded as if he was begging her to take it back.
"Yes you are" her tone even and unemotional.
Both their tones became more aggressive as they continued their childish 'are not, are too' argument.
"Well if I'm a jerk then you're a bitch!"
She deadpanned.
"Is that the best you could come up with? I believe I've already thanked you for that" she turned away and he looked stunned for a moment "No! That's not the best I could come up with!" he yelled "but I'll get back to you on that when I do" he finished in a quieter tone.
Blinx gagged on her laughter 'I'll pretend I didn't hear that' her brows furrowed at her own thought, curiosity taking hold a little "Why are you acting so...off?" he too joined her in curious land "Why are you acting off?"
"I asked you first"
"I asked you second!"
She sat down at the desk, elbow propped and chin in hand "There're no prizes for second, so why are you avoiding the question?"
He moved forward again leaning over her "I'm not avoiding the question"
"Yes you are"
"No I'm not"
Blinx channelled Lauren Cooper "But you are though!"
"No I'm not"
"Yes you are though"
"Why are you talking like that?"
"Are you disrespectin' me?"
"What? No"
She went back to leaning on her hand "Why do we do this? Why do you hate me?"
he paused in thought and all was silent in the room for a few minutes.
"Was there a reason to why you were here?" Finn opened his mouth to answer but was interrupted when the ship convulsed, sending Blinx' shelves to the floor. Things that hadn't smashed days before stood no chance now
"What the hell?! I'mma hit some bitch!"
"Well as long as it isn't me, I'm fine with it!" Finn grabbed her hand and dragged her out of her room away from the mess and anymore danger she could get herself into.
They arrived on the Bridge a minute later. Aerrow barked at Finn to get to the gun and then dashed out of the room with Junko, presumably to get to the hanger and their rides.
Obviously unbeknownst to Finn, but much to Blinx' annoyance, he didn't let her hand go as he ran to the gun, ran being the operative word. She stumbled and eventually tripped, taking him down with her.
He had somehow managed to land on his back, meaning she landed on his chest.
"Am I the only one with a strange case of déjà vu?"
He shook his head pushing her off him and settled himself in the guns seat.
Blinx placed her chin in her palm again, scowling up at him 'Jerk!'
