Warning: None, just mushy Sky thoughts...
Okay, next installment for you, expect another one in the next day or so, just have to finish it off. Also, this is just a short one, but I wrote it at work and it was just a silly little idea I had while on hold to another department... what can I say, sometimes working in a Call centre ain't tooo bad...
Good Memories
Sky looked at the small photo that was sitting on Bridge's desk, wondering who he had gotten to take it. Probably Boom come to think of it. He gave a small smile as he looked at it, running his finger gently down the photo, resting on Bridge's smiling face. It was a photo of the two of them, not long after they had become best friends, on a rare day off where they had been having some fun. In this case it was as summer's day and they had been in the park with some kids on a mentor program that SPD ran and had been in a water fight. It had been a beautiful day, one the happiest in Sky's life. He glanced around Bridge's side of the room and it was then he noticed that Bridge didn't have any family photo's or memento's like he did. He had the photo of his dad and him, then another of his sister and mother, but Bridge had none.
He sat down on his bed, the photograph of the two of them staring out at him. They were wrestling over the ownership of a water balloon and he recalled he had eventually got it from Bridge and soaked the younger man. Sky smiled, gently running his finger over Bridge's face. It was that day that he realised his feelings for Bridge were starting to run deeper than friendship. Bridge was so innocent sometimes about life that it felt like that he needed to be protected from it's harsh realities, but Sky better than that. He knew that Bridge's life hadn't been a happy one up to and including starting at the Academy. But this photo showed a side of him that few people got to see. It showed the real Bridge.
Sky reached into his draw and took out his diary, something even Bridge didn't know he had. He laid back down on the bed and opened it, taking out other photographs he had of the two of them. There weren't many but there was enough that Sky could stare at them for hours. And lately he'd been doing that a lot more. One in particular caught his attention and he couldn't help the grin on his face.
It was taken last month at a charity benefit and Bridge had entered the watermelon eating contest to see how many pieces he could get through. Sky had reckoned that no one could beat the local food eating champ and Bridge had said it was a case of mind over matter and promptly signed up. Sky had just laughed at him saying that he'd never do it, but Bridge had just looked at him in that strange way he had sometimes that made Sky think he could see his soul and grinning, said for him to have some faith. So Sky had stood there, cheering Bridge on, with some others and watched as he waded through almost a full watermelon before giving in. He had finished second, grinning hugely and holding his stomach. Sky had took pity on him and they had gone to the park then, lying in the grass, staring at the clouds and not speaking. It was a wonderful time. It was that feat that made him realise more than anything that there was more to Bridge than meets the eye. He sighed and put the photo away, glancing at the clock. He grinned as he sat up and put the photo's back and the diary away. Bridge was due back from his training session with Kat about now and he knew that these sessions wore his gentle friend out. So he had planned to take Bridge off the base for a few hours. Perhaps they could go to the waterfront, have a few pieces of watermelon together. And perhaps, perhaps one day, they could eat watermelon in a rather special way. Blushing at that thought Sky shook his head and began to get ready. Maybe they could even get a proper photograph together, eating said watermelon. Laughing at the silliness of that thought Sky grabbed his clothes. This afternoon was going to be fun.
There you go, enjoy.
