Angela POV
It's already been a few weeks,I can't stand it. He only has 2 meetings per month here,I never see him on the battle field,and all that I have left is the bracelet. On missions I put the bracelet on my ankle,I've done my best at hiding is under my sleeves and in my sock on missions.
Unnoticeable grins are exchanged when he walks down the hall, tiny winks,small hugs. I know it's seems like a lot but it's just not.
"Hey guys." Lúcio says, bringing me back to reality. I'm in the medbay,working on paperwork. Like usual.
Jesse is laying down on one of the med bay bed,just hanging. Lúcio enters the med bay with Takis. He throws Jesse and I each a bag.
"Thanks." I say placing the bag on my desk. I don't really like spicy foods,but if I'm hungry I'll pretty much eat anything that's offered to me. I haven't been really hungry or awake since Reyes left.
Jesse says thanks and they begin talking. Lúcio and Jesse are really starting to become best friends,I'm not jealous,it's just nice that they are bonding so well.
I always like listening in on what ever conversation they are talking about,some days it's just weirdness,some days it's about gossip,that kind of stuff.
"Angie,you aren't looking so well." Lúcio says and I examine myself.
"You sayings that I'm fat?" I joke,but he doesn't grin.
"Angie,you've lost weight." He says pointing at the mirror. I stand up and walk over the mirror,I was wearing a usually tight-ish sweater,but it was baggy.
"Wow,I guess I have lost weight." I say shrugging,if I'm not hungry then I'm don't feel like eating,it's just a weird eating schedule.
I walk back to my desk and continue what I'm doing. I can feel their glares burning the back of my head,literally. I spin around.
"What." I say. They exchange eye contact.
"Honey,you need to eat." Lúcio says and Jesse nods in agreement.
"I'm fine Lúcio,besides I'm probably going through some weird eating schedule." I lie,I know it's not because of some eating schedule. I keep telling myself that,I know it's because Reyes left.
"We trust you,just promise you aren't lying." Jesse says holing out his pinkie finger. We hook them together.
"I promise." I say and get back to work. Everyone is silent for a bit, but then they begin to talk again. They are just worried for me. I'll get hungry again eventually.
After a few hours Lúcio leaves and Jesse stays. He not really doing anything,just sitting there.
"Angela." He says and I turn around.
"If you need to tell me anything,just say." He says and smiles. He's really sweet,Im glad he's one of my friends. I smile back at him.
"I'll tell you if I have anything to say." I say and he stands up. He leaves the med bay.
I can't say,I really can't. I know it can't stay like this forever,but it's just killing me that I can't tell them. They won't understand,Reyes has this effect on me. They won't understand that,they'll just think I'm crazy,and too attached. But I'm not.
It's difficult to explain,I just miss him that much. Am I too attached? Am I what I'm denying? He shouldn't have this effect on me. But he does.
A tear falls down my cheek,he'll always visit. He always has meetings here.
I wipe the year,no. Why does he have the effect on me?! I can't think straight anymore,I can't do anything! I'm so confused,is he trying to make me feel like this?
God,why hormones. Now I'm thinking weird things.
The rest of the day was a quiet one. I'm starting to experiment with the nano technology,soon I will be able to rapidly regenerate atoms. Thus human reviving will be a thing,but I still have a lot of testing left.
By a a lot of testing I mean it could take years,and years until the first full human could have their body fully regenerated.
I sigh as I enter my room. I turn on my lights,and look around. Everything still seems so new. I've already been here for almost a year and it still seems new.
I shower and put on a t shirt and shorts,and plop down in bed. I lift my wrist and look at the bracelet,I play with it for a bit,wrapping the access chain around my finger and just messing around with it.
I eventually hear a knock on the door,when I open it its Jesse.
"I know something's wrong." He says. I freeze for a second.
"What?" I say and let him in. As I shut the door he sighs.
"It's not obvious,and I had to really put the pieces together. You and Reyes are dating." He says. I raise my eyebrow sit down.
"It wasn't obvious?" I say and he is a bit surprised.
"So it's true?" He says and i lower my eyebrow.
"Yeah." I say and he sits down.
We talk for a while,and I eventually spill the beans,a few tears run down my face during the talk.
"Angie,is it killing you that much?" He says and I job as I wipe away another tear.
"It's getting late." I says and stand up. "You should, leave." I say. He stands up too.
"Angie,please. Just eat and tell me anything. It's not ok to bottle up emotions. You're a human and humans have emotions." He says with a small grin. I grin back at him.
He walks over to me and hugs me. The hug lasts for a bit,but eventually he lets me go.
"I'm glad we had this talk." He says and he walks out the door.
I'm glad too.
