Day 151
Last day of the month, hope you enjoy it. Have a wonderful beginning to winter or summer – whichever one you're entering.
Disclaimer: All right I admit it…I don't own the show.
Zap bounced slightly in his seat, staring out the window with excitement as the train flew closer and closer to Earth. For the umpteenth time, he grasped at the thick grey wool that sat around his neck and inhaled deeply, his nose filling with the final drops of her perfume.
His smile grew wider as the planet slowly grew in size, warning the passengers of their soon arrival. He was so eager to get there that he almost removed his seatbelt too early, but the little blinking light above told him not to.
The train, loaded with people both standing and sitting, pulled down into the platform with a slight hiss. The pilot, who had strategically chosen a seat that would reveal the platform, gazed out of the window as he searched for the clone.
But as he looked out, he couldn't see anyone he recognised.
"Come on, let's move it people," Jenny ordered impatiently as she marched towards their craft. The rest of the team were behind her, collecting necessary items and trying to hide their smirks.
"You know, Jenny," Dex began, letting his gaze fall to his wife as he watched her take their son into the ship. "Zap's train doesn't get in for another hour, and with how fast our ship is, we'll be waiting a long time on the platform."
"Better early than having him wait, no?" she retorted, sprinting towards the open hatch. Dex simply shook his head before boarding himself, ensuring everyone else was on the ship.
"Ok everyone, just a small-"
"No, no time," the clone spoke, slamming her foot down onto the accelerator. Dex stumbled onto the floor as he had not taken his seat yet, groaning as he collided with something hard.
"Jenny, what is this?" he questioned as he rubbed the bruise forming on his head. Jenny quickly turned her head around to look at the cardboard sign before facing back to the windscreen, a blush forming on her cheeks.
"It's nothing," she tried to ignore the giggles from the rest of the team as they read the chauffeur sign.
"You're going to greet Zap at the train station with 'Hair Boy'?" Dex read aloud, his eyes still locked on the sign. A small jerk of the ship caused him to knock his head again, and although she couldn't see it, the clone could feel Dex's death glare penetrate the back of her head.
"All right, all right, I get the message," he responded, taking his seat. "Let's just hope he can recognise your little nickname too."
Finally the ship arrived at the station, and no sooner had it parked in the lot, than Jenny had sprinted down the bypass and to where the train would arrive. Tung smirked as he watched her go, chancing a glance to Bream. 'That must've been how I looked.'
As the train pulled into the station, Jenny held the sign up under her chin in excitement, bouncing on the balls of her feet. A crowd of people dispersed out of the sliding doors, giving her strange looks as they read her sign. She tried to ignore it as the clone searched herself…
…but it all happened so fast.
In a quick black blur, something warm wrapped around her waist and before she knew it, she was being carried up to the ceiling under the bypass. A few gasps and screams could be heard from the crowd, to which the clone completely ignored. The only thing her mind was focused on was the soft pair of lips on hers, the ones that belonged to her missing other half. Her hands wrapped around the back of his neck, partly to deepen the kiss, but also to steady herself in their hovering state. Despite her eyes being closed, she could feel him smiling under her lips, making her grin in response.
The team at Hamilton Habitat watched on, along with a surprised crowd, as the two continued to kiss and hug high above them…
…a chauffeur's sign left forgotten on the cold floor.
T'is the end of the month, and an 'aw' worthy chapter. I better get my plan ready for next month, because those are exams. R&R! Don't forget comp, ideas (if you want, I'm pretty good for now) and…yeah, glad you liked it.
