2 MONTHS AFTER THE CRASH

It had been two long, gruelling, tiring months since the ship crashed. But Daisuke, the young intern’s optimism made it all a little better. Daisuke wasn’t exactly secretive about his… ‘Little’ crush on you- he talked about you a lot to Anya, mostly, just going on about how he thought you were funny, kind, pretty. Anya put up with him because she found it entertaining. Daisuke was like a middle school boy with a crush. He always tried to make you laugh, with the stupidest jokes ever. He always teased you, tugging your hair, leaning in close to you like he might kiss you, just to pull away, picking you up and tossing you over his shoulder, just so you know he can, pinching your cheeks, flicking you on the forehead, calling you slightly mean names. But when he wasn’t teasing you, he was trying to impress you, carrying heavy things for you, fixing things around the ship and making you watch, reaching high to get something you can’t reach, practically worshipping the ground you walked on.

So, that’s how he ended up in this situation. You were in the lounge with Daisuke, Anya and Swansea. Not sure where Jimmy was. You were talking to Anya on the other side of the couch. Swansea was grumbling about something to Daisuke. But Daisuke wasn’t listening, sitting on the couch opposite to you, leaning his elbows against his thighs, his head in his hands, just silently watching you, an almost dreamy expression on his face.

He was down bad, and he knew it.
