Dead Dreams

CHAPTER 6: Forbidden Love

Uzi's POV

We had just arrived at the spaceship, and I advised the both of them to go hunting, as I seriously didn't want to become a hotspot for oil. V said she just drank a whole bunch of oil, so she should be good for a few days. Turns out N hadn't had oil since a few days before prom. I guess he's better at controlling his desire for oil then V. He decided to go out hunting for a bit.
"Well, I guess I'll go hunting now, since I haven't had oil for awhile. Uh, I'll see you guys soon! V, no eating Uzi."
"Oh my gosh N. I was fine with her in the storage room thing. No need to worry, we'll be juuuust fine."
"Uhm... N? Can we step outside for a moment. I need to talk to you, alone. Nothing against you V, just more of a private conversation."
"Doesn't bother me, I don't care."
"Uhmm sure Uzi! I love doing anything!"

We had both stepped outside, and I began to talk. "So... what are your opinions on V lately? Do you still have a crush on her?"
"Well... I'm not really sure I do. Now that she's opened up to me more, and I've learned to be more myself, I don't really think I have an interest for her anymore. Why do you ask Uzi?"
"O-oh uhmmm... well if you did have a crush on her still, I was thinking maybe I could set you guys up, since she's kinda my friend now...?"
"Aw, that's super nice of you Uzi! But I'm starting to relieze that my feelings twords her wasn't love. I see her more as a freind now."
"Well, do you have anyone else in mind?"
"Hmm... nope! I don't think I've got a crush anymore! I think the problem was I was confusing my love for her in the past rather than right now."
"Well, good thing you figured that out before yall might've started dating, haha."
"Yup! Well, if you don't need anything else, I'm going to go hunting for a bit. When I get back, we can talk or do whatever!"
"Well, enjoy being out. Don't die or anything"
"Pfttt. As if!"

With him saying this, he saluted me, then flew off. Well... now I don't really feel bad about earlier now that I know he doesn't have a crush on her anymore.

I started walking back up the ladder, then went into the spaceship. V was sitting in one of the chairs, and blowing bubbles.
"Sooo, did you guys makeout or something?"
"What, you want me to makeout with you?"
"..."
"Blowing bubbles? Haha! Bubble brain."
"Bubble brain? Is that suppost to be an insult?"
"I don't know, is toaster suppost to be an insult?"
"Not necessarily..."
"What's that suppost to mean?"
"Nothing. How about that."

I started to walk over to the control panel, and I picked up the screwdriver I had left there days ago. I started to screw up bolts, and rewire some wires. V was watching me so, I decided to start up some small talk. "Why are you staring?"
"Because I can."
"That's such an overrated reply, got anything better?"
"Hmm, nope~"
"Ha, idiot."
"So... what were you guys talking about out there? Unless you were making ouuuuut~."
"Pftt. You really think we have a crush on eachother?"
"Well I did untill earlier..."
"...u-uhh that was entirely from revenge!!!"
"I'm teasing~ gosh you get flustered easily."
"Flustered easily? Why don't I go over there and kiss you again?"
"I would say you wouldn't, buuut... now I'm not so sure."
"So, if your tail stabbed my hand, would you let me put my hand in your mouth?"
"What the heck kind of question is that?? Why on copper 9 are you asking me that??"
"I don't know. I need some conversation starters."
"I'm not going to let you put your hand in my mouth. No way, and plus, can't you regenerate on your own now?"
"I'm not sure if it works everytime... totally."
"Wanna try~?"
"Ha! No. I'm good."

I really enjoyed talking with V, me and her talked for awhile while I was fixing up the spaceship. I just... this feeling won't go away. Anytime shes around, I feel like my insides are being turned inside out. Its not even painfull! At first I was thinking that it was embarrassment but... I feel that way, even when I'm not embarrased. I know just yesterday we hated eachother so much but... after that dream, and her comforting me... it was a whole new desire I didn't even know I had. I wanted more. I wanted her to hug me all day. I wanted to sleep with her every night. I wanted her to bite me on the neck again. Why was I craving this? Is this really... love? Do I have a crush on V? Does she like me back?
