h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Thinks: I wonder what she'll look like in a micro-bikini in 10 years time after a couple of kids....

No! Babe, wait....
*watches helplessly as ddgb storms off into the distance*
*looks back at FC and wonders how to get out of this without breaking several laws of continuity*

oh EV... She'll calm down in a bit... all you need do is wait for her... but more to the point what's Matt doing out there with Shazz?? I may not look as good in a bikini as her, but I've never had complaints before....

do you think i should give up hope of ever being with him?

*sighs* He doesn't deserve you, FC...
*hugs FC in what he hopes is a supportive manner, even though he still secretly loves her*

*walks back into the jetty calmly*

*sees EV and FC*

*clearly shaken, she stands still waiting for EV to notice her...

GB thinks about putting in an appearance here, but decides against it....

*sees ddgb out of the corner of his eye and hopes she realises this is just a friendly supportive hug*
*wonders if FC realises that*
*wonders if it really is just a friendly supportive hug*

*Wonders whether she should put in an appearance and give EV a friendly, supportive hug*

*takes EV's hand, and becomes even calmer than she thought would be possible*

so. what is happening here? am I in your life or not? Tell me truthfully, because you will only break my heart if you do not...

Thinks: Break her heart? What heart???

*thinks long and hard*

*eventually lets go of ddgb's hand, turns back to FC and gently kisses her on the cheek*
I'm sorry, FC... I hope things work out for you, I really do.

*turns back to ddgb and hugs her*
I'm yours, babe... let me take you away from all this!
*takes her hand and starts to lead her towards his boat*

*feels the need to glower at GB for no apparent reason...

*glowers*

*hugs EV close, feeling the stares boring into her back*

*she shrugs them off, happy to be close to EV once again...

*kisses him on the cheek as they go onto the boat...

*watches the departing EV and Babe... can only feel jealous...*

*she goes and sits down. who else is left in her life? Her Guardee is getting his wings, and Matt is over the seas, far away... She wonders what he is doing, how he is feeling, and whether he is missing her in the slightest...

*she drinks some coconut milk willing for him to return....



*GOD-almighty ensures that her messages are passed on without hesitation... after all, she is one of His Archangels...*

*helps ddgb onto the lavish pleasure cruiser which he dismissively refers to as "the boat"*
Champagne, babe?
*he leads her inside, but can't help glancing back to see FC, sitting alone on the beach*

*follows EV's gaze outside and sees the poor Angel. she cant help feeling sorry for all the trouble she has put in her way between her and her true love...*

EV. Why dont you go ask her onboard. Its the least I can do to try and make amends...

*as she looks out the window again she fails to see the smile encroaching EVs face...

*A shrubbery with terrific legs wanders onto the scene. The shrubbery trips over discarded empty champagne bottles and falls to reveal Petunia, who is certainly not looking her best after what she's been through on the island but who still manages to project her charm and potential under disheveled hair*

Oops. Are there any wealthy men about whose room I might borrow for a hot shower and a comfy bathrobe? A little room service after would be nice, also .

*A saintly voice whispers in Petunia's ear that there are riches to be had at Hidden Beach. Musters the last of her strength, grabs a bottle of Evian and some danishes from a service cart, and sets out for the Hidden Beach*

*watches bemusedly as a shrubbery makes its way along the beach*
*turns back to ddgb and rests his head on her shoulder*
Are you sure asking FC on board is a good idea? We could spend time together... alone...
*gazes back out along the beach*
Then again, it would be a shame just to leave her there, wouldn't it?

*walks down the beach and sits down next to FC, staring out into the distance*
*turns her head, and smiles*
Hey.
Well, turns out that this island was a bit of a bust. The one guy I liked (or at least, the one who liked me) left for another island, and I had a pregnancy scare.
And your guy.... well, you know.
Feel like some heavy drinking? I still have that Jack Daniels from when the Colonel landed...
*notices something on the water*
Then again, your luck might be changing hon...
