GREG: It was the first day of flight class. She gave a speech on inert gas. I was transfixed by her beauty and I missed every question on the noble gasses quiz. Sat next to her all semester. I did my best to impress her. And with some time alone, well I’m sure she would notice me, and now I’ve got the opportunity. Cause when I woke this morning, found a paper on the floor of my room. It said “There’s been a change of plans; you’re leaving for the space station soon.” I got my space pass! By the board’s unanimous decision, I was not assigned to a mission. But it paid off when Julian fell from the podium, and I was the only one left to take the job. Cause Julian and Madeleine were going to do research in space, but yesterday he broke his toe and now I get to go in his place! I got my space pass! She was a delicate flower. I hid a camera in the shower. And every time I saw her picture, it reminded me that she didn’t even recognize my face. But once we get to orbit we’ll have thirty weeks together alone. Floating free in zero-g, I’ll finally get to make her my own! I got my space pass!
MISSION CONTROL: 10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... We have lift-off.
