Beautiful Things (SeaChaos)

Part 8 - Nanners

~Chilled's POV~

"How'd it go?!" I quickly ask Ze the moment he walks into the office. Overwhelming him and shocking him with my sudden presence. More than my sudden appearance when he wasn't the one who drove me here like he usually does everyday and the fact I didn't tell him where I'd get my ride I didn't need, he seems even more puzzled by the question I asked and the fact I didn't research myself. I even puzzle myself by my constant hoping to hear that the mission was a failure just for the satisfaction of catching the bastard later by myself. And I even fell asleep during the news when they were following the entire

"You didn't see? I thought you'd be all over the news since you couldn't be there live," Ze comments, puzzled but slowly follows me into the office while Gassy walks in behind him seeming completely healthy. Well at least these two seem healthy, although I haven't seen Sark yet or Hutch, but I'm not sure if Hutch went. I assumed pretty much everyone went but me and that there was too many people in the small house was just an excuse to leave me out.

"I told you I'd be hanging out with a friend. I ended up fucking up and he had to bring me to his house, then I sort of fell asleep," I explain, a bit embarrassed with the story but Ze just sighs as if he'd only expect it out of me. He turns away from me and scratches the side of his head seeming upset and a bit awkward.

"It was a failure. Smoked us out when we didn't expect it and by chance attacked Gassy."

"I don't get it," Gassy snaps, interrupting Ze and making us look to him to see his completely pissed expression. "He didn't know I was the one carrying it but he just got lucky and attacked me second it's such bullshit. He just gets lucky all these times, he's such a cheating fuck." Both Ze and I stay silent, my own irritation building with Gassy's the longer I hear the story, feeling the irritation about how lucky the guy is for just attacking Gassy so quickly when there were so many other choices. Although I wasn't even there I feel annoyed and feel even more hatred towards SeaNanners. My drive to catch the fuck seems to control me as I immediately look away from Gassy and feel the anger boil up inside me. From what I've heard so far this guy is just a really, really annoying guy who is just easy to be irritated at. As we enter the office it seems as if the entire office has been affected by last night's failure along with SeaNanner's easily irritating behavior as practically everyone is yelling about the same thing: this guy is really fucking getting on our nerves.

"Ze!" Sark calls out and Ze immediately runs over to Sark after waving me a friendly goodbye. Seeing Sark makes me feel relieved with Hutch beside him holding up a file of papers while pointing to something but pauses as Ze joins them. Although I felt relieved I feel a strong energy force from right beside me practically hurting me with its anger although it's not even directed towards me. Peeking over towards Gassy I find him glaring at nothing in particular and somehow a lot more irritated than anybody else, however, I completely understand him. I was fucked with by SeaNanners the first time and this time it was Gassy who was fucked with and stolen from and it's a terrible fucking feeling being robbed from and completely made a fool of. Only for Gassy the guy was just being cocky and showing off his luckiness, the fact that the win was only based around luck also really bothers someone like Gassy who focuses around hard work.

"Trust me, I understand how you feel Gassy. It's like you were meant to win the Olympics but at the last moment an evil banana stole your gold and you feel like you just got shit all over," I complain but Gassy seems shocked, barely noticing my voice and glances over at me, a foreign expression on his face. It almost seems... uncomfortable? Did I say something wrong? I open my mouth again to ask about it but he turns away and steps away without another word. What the fuck was that? I just made a regular comment like always and he's heard me say things like that all of the time. Maybe he was irritated that I hadn't watched the thing go down, but that can't really be helped since it's at fucking midnight and anybody is expected to be asleep by that time. And that wasn't an irritated expression, just...disturbed, uncomfortable. The only times I know Gassy is uncomfortable is when he lies or is in trouble, at least when the other person doesn't deserve it. He didn't say anything that sounded like a lie and he's no where in trouble with me so is he... keeping something from me?
