Eureka Seven Fanfic
Characters: Renton, Charles Beams, Ray Beams
Rating: PG
Description:This is really more practice than a real FanFic. It's a scene from a future episode. Renton is not longer with GekkoState. He has ventured out on his own and faces a delimma like none he has seen before. Becoming part of a family.

Like I said, more of a practice peice than a true Fanfic. I've got something else I'm working on but I wanted to post this since it was done. Tell me what you think.


Renton’s time with the Beams or Being Loved

Those were sweet, warm and soothing words. Yet they were also a bit awkward. Renton’s thoughts were drawn to them over and over again. Such thoughts were hard to face, so he fought against them and worked to focus on the maintenance of Charles-san’s LFO.
“Charles-San,” Renton said the name aloud, then,”papa.” The word was strange. Almost alien, yet warm and soothing.
Again Renton’s thoughts returned to those words from earlier. It had been during diner. As usual Ray-san had fixed a banquet of wonderful foods and laid them out for Renton, and Charles. Those wonderful meals had come to be a delight Renton always looked forward to. That night, though, it had been different. With the recent passing of the young Vodarac girl at Orpar he couldn’t build the energy to enjoy anything, least of all food. He had half expected to be locked in their brig as soon as they returned to the ship.
“So Renton, “Charles-san’s words ran through him with a mixture of pain and relief,”Ray and I were thinking…”
Renton remembered how his heart had clenched at those words “This is it” he thought, “They’re going to tell me to leave.” But that hadn’t been the case.
“Maybe…,”Charles-san had said boisterously,” you could call us Papa and Mama from now on.”
There were more, many more, words after that. Ones Renton couldn’t seem to recall exactly. He tried to express how he felt but it seemed hallow even to him. Those words, which came so easily to so many kids his age, felt like warm water flowing over the cold stone of his soul. Sweet, soothing, and so very warm.
“If you ever feel like calling us that”Ray-san had said, “we’re fine with it.” She had come to him them. Like a mother should, to comfort her son,”If it’s okay with you, consider this ship your permanent home.”
In all his 14 and a half years Renton had never felt so torn. He thought of when he had last felt so at home. So accepted and loved. He couldn’t remember. The first thought was of his sister. His big sister had loved him like that. He knew she did. He wished he could see her, even if only for a little while. But Diane had been gone. He tried to remember a moment with Eureka. Her face came to him suddenly and with perfect clarity. He saw her brilliant pink eyes staring at him under a halo of aquamarine bangs and the smooth curve of her throat running up to her chin. This image was quickly replaced with the last sight he ever had of her.
On the floor of the Beams family ship, Renton Thurston realized he had never been more accepted and unconditionally loved as he was there with Charles and Ray-san.
Charles and Ray were more supportive than Holland and the Gekkostate crew could ever be. Charles would never lash out, at him without cause. Ray would never leave him like his sister had. As he sat on the floor, Renton let his mouth form those strange and alien words, ”Pa… papa. Ma… mama.”
They felt good to say and he laughed weakly. From the other side of the hanger a baritone voice called to him, “Oh! You’ve remembered how to say them?” It was Charles-san. He moved towards Renton with a beaming smile on his face, “You know, being able to say them is a privilege of being young! You must be thinking about your future with some girl.” This last was fallowed closely with a wink.
Renton blushed, “No, that’s not it!”
“You don’t have to hide it,” Charles-san continued laughing, “You were thinking of some girl, weren’t you?”
With a venomous bite Renton snapped, “No, Charles, you’re wrong!” Though not meaning to Renton knew he had been out of line. “I’m sorry.” He said quickly,”P-Pa-Pa… um Pa… Pa-“He couldn’t seem to spit it out now. No mater how hard he wanted to.
Charles-sans deep ringing laughter filled the hanger with ghosts of joy. “Normally, when someone tells you to say something like that, you can’t really do it. Even I couldn’t do that.”
Renton let out a deep breath. Standing up from the computer monitor he moved closer to Charles-san. “Yeah, listen,” he started, “would you think it would be okay… if I just started with “mom” and “dad”? I never had a chance to say that, to either my mother or father. Suddenly saying “Papa” and “Mama” is kinda…” He wasn’t sure the right word to use. He thought for a second about how to express it to Charles-san.
He quickly found it to be unnecessary. Stepping in closely Charles put his arms around Renton and held him in his arms.
“This is how a father greets his son.” he said. After a moment of quiet, “Do I smell bad?” Renton was unable to speak. Putting his arms around the man he simply shook his head and smiled. “This is the smell of your father… Renton.” With his face buried in Charles chest, he smiled and held on hoping this moment would never end.
When Renton let go he felt much better. He wanted to talk and so he and his new “father” sat down near the blue mecha to pass the time. It seemed like a great stone had been rolled off his heart. Renton wanted to let everything roll out and so he started with his grandpa.
