CHAPTER FIVE

Later that day, Zenon had totally been ignoring Greg. He still acted like nothing had happened. Orion was working all day in his lab, so Zenon didn't get a chance to talk to him. Nebula and Margie had gone down to earth to see a band they both loved. Zenon was alone, in the computer lab, uploading stories on fanfiction.net(*smiles, what else would a bored teenager do?*). Just as she finished, Greg walked in.

"Hey, babe."

"SHUT UP!" yelled Zenon through clenched teeth.

"Yesterday-it's not what it looked like. That was-uh-my cousin, going down to earth, I was saying goodbye."

"Idiot. First of all, all shuttle flights were canceled because of the September 11th earth attack. Ok? Second of all, if you kissed your cousin like that, you would have problems. In fact, you'd be gay!"

Zenon stood up and walked out of the computer lab.
