''Sunny days and Moonlit nights'' | ~Sunrise/Moondrop x Reader~ |

Chapter 8. ''a different perspective''

We're switching things up a bit! The choice of whether Y/N should stay or leave the day-care is for the next chapter. Here, it's all about Sun and Moon as the events of chapter 7 unfolds from their pov.

This is a very long chapter, around 3400 words to be precise - so please relax, get a beverage of your favourite kind, and enjoy the chapter ;)

((this goes without saying ofc, there'll be a few 'suggestive' events here too. You've been warned))

---Sun POV---

Seeing that Y/N had left made me feel so bad! Not only had I failed to keep them safe like I promised myself I would when I first saw them, but now I was also unable to be with them-
and Moon had been such a bother too! After Y/N dosed off, it almost felt like he'd been trying to keep them away from me the rest of the day - he even locked me in a dark room and left me there when I said I was going to check on them, which was no fun at all.
He can be so mean sometimes >:(

Me and him argued for a good 5 minutes before I heard to tell-tale sound of the big doors opening up again. Moon turned off the lights in our room and held a hand up to my mouth when I was about to yell at him for it. He knew I hated the darkness, and even if it was sort of silly, he never really held it against me.
I think.
It was sorta hard to tell by just the way he acted. He would never say anything about what he thought of things, nor what he was feeling. When we were still together, I was just sort of always aware. It's hard to explain - but I sort of just always knew. Maybe we had a better connection since we were, well, connected. Whenever Moon felt bad, I would know, and I would cheer him up. Or at least I would try to! I know he never ever even said thanks to me in our entire existence, but back then I could at least feel him be grateful. But now I couldn't.

Moon hushed me and peeked out from the balcony after a while, smirking as he did so. Even though I always had a hard time telling what he felt at any given moment, I did know that look. He had an idea. And seeing as how his ideas always wounded up, I could tell this one too was going to end horribly as well.

'' Y/N's back... they're turning on the generators...''
He whispered and peeked over his shoulders towards me. I saw him lift his brow in a questioning matter on the non-moon side of his face, his smirk only growing wider. I could feel my face light up even more before he calmly walked over and pulled me in for a - hug??? He hadn't done that in ages! Come to think of it, he had only ever done it the first day we saw each other for real. It felt... nice. Even though we had our quarrels, I always did see him as my only real friend in this massive place. Of course, I was friends with all the kids! But Moony was just something... different. He felt like someone I could always depend on, almost like family even.

And just like that, he flipped the switch on the inside of my faceplate and turned off the light that emitted from it. For a moment, everything was pure darkness.
I
was
LIVID.
Just as I pushed him away to start yelling at him, I saw his silhouette hold up a finger to his mouth and shushed me. In confusion, I watched him as he pointed towards the playground area, softly giggling as he winked.

''Ohhh...''
I responded in a hushed voice and giggled lightly.
I knew what he was gonna do, and although normally I would be against it, I also knew Moon would be even more mean to me if I didn't at least let him play chase. Afterall, it had been ages since he was allowed to play games with human staff, so of course he would be exited to do so again!
Moon turned away and stepped out to the balcony, turning around to bow at me before doing a back flip into the air, falling off the balcony, stopping himself halfway down with his wire and silently drifting over to stand at the edge of the pit.
Oh, how I envy his creative stunts. He was always good at them, and I was always absolutely terrible and terrified of them! He had taught me how to land safely in the pit though, and had it not been for him, I would never have learnt how to jump out of our room in the first place!
