Jack's POV:
"Hullo! Earth calls Venus! Report, Captain!" called the Tom's voice next to my ear.
I jumped:
"Huh?!"
"See?" Tommy turned to Clarie, who was lying on the bed next to his.
"Why Venus... What... Uhm... What are we talking about?" I asked confused. Tom threw a huge blue omasum to my bed. It was a dictionary.
"Search." he said, mimicking my faint British accent and laid down at his bed. I groaned:
"Don't give me orders, I'm not your dog." and I opened dictionary somewhere in the second half. I found the letter V, and after a moment I already had a Venus.
Venus: the name of the planet after the Rome goddess of love and beauty...
Well, I couldn't even deny it now. That would be cheating.
This was so childish! But then I realised something and I immediately had in my head, besides Morrigan, a fast, primitive and effective plan, how to return it to Tom. Goddess of love and... Hm... I grinned, but just in my spirit yet.
"Venus, the name of the planet after the Rome goddess of love and beauty." I read loudly and slightly highlighted the last word. Then I raised one eyebrow at Tom, smirked and to the silence I asked:
"You think I'm pretty?"
Clarie couldn't stand it anymore, and errupted to laughter. Tom flew out from the bed, almost dropped at his mouth and, his finger in the air, he strained between his teeth:
"The fact, that you fell in love soooo crazy with Morrigan Crow won't get disguised with you doing a jackass from me, in front of Clarie!"
'Ah yes, I will, Tom. I'm in love doesn't mean, I'm stupid, and I definitely do not have to tell you anything.' I thought, but actually, I had a hundred... No! Hundred and ONE of urges to raise one eyebrow again and say:
'Jackass... in front of Clarie, huh?!'
But then I bit my tongue a kept it quiet. I took Jupiter's advice about mixing up with relationships seriously. I pointed casualy:
"It sounds gypsy."
Tom jibbed, then frowned.
"And that's what, again?"
I gave him a mysterious glance, handed him a dictionary, laid down to my bed, shrugged, and told him:
"Search."
