Curly, your best friend since highschool and pilot of the ship you two were on with a few others. He’s seen you at your lowest, at your best and everything in between. But you hated the man. You hated how soft his blonde hair was, how soft his blue eyes looked at you, how calmly and deeply he spoke, how he almost had a chest of a fucking woman. You hated how he had all the power on the ship, and was climbing the ranks. The only reason you were co-pilot was because Curly put in a good word for you. Since you were his best friend. Just as much as you hated the man, you wanted him. You wanted to ruin all of him, pour into his soul; and let him ruin you. Not that you were gay though. That was a totally normal best friend thing to think of, at least that’s what you told Curly and anyone else who said your twos relationship was weird.
You hated how sickening nice he was, and how he always covered up your mistakes; even if you told him you meant it. You never took responsibility; and in a way Curly didn’t either, he always covered up your mistakes or took the blow for it. Why was he such a good person to a terrible person like you? Who knows.
But now Curly had some news to tell you. After you two, and the rest of the crew reaches port in a couple months from now; he was offered a job to go pilot something more meaningful, not just cargo. It was a great offer, more money, more power and respect; but he also had to leave everyone on this crew. Any, Swansea, Daisuke and his best friend you. He was going to take it, you’d get a new pilot. Maybe it even be you, as co-pilot! But even he knew that wasn’t very high, because everyone here wasn’t skilled or special. Anya? She failed nursing skill so she took this position, they needed someone with little experience in nursing. Swansea? He was old enough to retire but still needed money, and this was one of the few places that would hire him. Daisuke? He was a young boy just taking some time to learn before he gets a real job; he’d be fine. And you, nothing really special, and a terrible attitude. He felt bad about leaving, but what could he do?
He Called you down to the cockpit; he wanted to tell you first out of everyone, he was already sitting in the pilot chair and gestured for you to sit down in the co-pilot chair. He had believed on you down on earth. And still believed in you here.
