13: X's And O's

Even though you didn't get a good look.. The figure, Well, "Man" had soft black side-swept hair. And piercing eyes. Sure you tried to ignore it, but something was...weird.

He wore what seemed to be a navy blue hoodie. With black slightly ripped jeans, and red shoes. Topped with a deep red cap.

Your shoes scruffed the sidewalk. Staring at the rocks you were passing by on the floor. Complete paranoia crossing your mind.

Why was this? You felt watched. And oh boy, was it unsettling. You had your mechanic uniform in your bag, Not, Your security belt. Grabbing ahold of your keys, you shifted one of them in-between your ring, and middle finger. Just incase.

You might've been overreacting about it, You didn't even hear anyone behind you! But you knew SOMEONE had to be there.
I'm..not going crazy. Right? Im not!

Finally reaching the plex, minutes before your shift started. The sharp eyes taking off of you. Letting out a deep sigh, you make your way to the daycare, before stopping at a halt. A loud
CLANG

Caught you completely off guard. It seemed like nobody else noticed. Using the It's probably just my mind excuse, you continue walking. Feeling stress ache at your mentality.

"SHI-" you tripped. You tripped on a child. "Ah! I'm so sorry! I wasn't looking where I was going!" The kid ran away crying as you awkwardly scratch the back of your neck.

Dusting off your clothes, you feel a strange sensation in your pocket. Pulling out the contents you notice the scanner, but it was broken. "Fucking.. And I gotta check-up on Sunny today!" You let out a groan and head towards Vannessa's office.

Knock knock

"The door's open!" You hear her say from inside, the Click Click Clicking from her keyboard slowly coming to a stop.
"Hey Vanessa! Sorry to bother you.. but I broke my scanner.. have any extras I could use?"
"Hm? I think I might have one... How badly was it broken?"

You pull out the crushed pieces and softly place them on the desk. Showing a slight nervous smile.
"Oof- Yeah, you need a new one. Sit down for a bit- I think There are a few in storage.."
"Alrighty! Thank you!"

—-
You slowly creak the Daycare doors open, The sounds of laughing children that once flooded your ears, were missing.

Instead peering in, you find... The Man you saw at the café, having a conversation with a smiley Sun.

Wait..

That..

Man....

JOEL?

Sunny beamed towards you. Knowing you can't slip away now, you walk towards the two. The smile you've been blessed with, Caused Joel to look over at you. Feeding an unknown expression.

"Y/n! It's been a long time! It's so great to see you!" Joel makes his way over and gives you a Not-so warm embrace. Gaining a confused look from Sunny.

You awkwardly return a pat on the back. "Heh... Hey Joel..!" What you thought was a navy blue sweater apparently was a dark green sweater. And black jeans, were just sweatpants. His hair looked soft. He wore cross earrings, and you noticed the clean, soft skin that once captivated you.

After backing away from Joel, You expected a welcoming from Sun, but he just gives you an awkward smile. Normally Sunny would give you a warm, Snuggly embrace. But he didn't. Which was... disappointing.

"Why are you here Joel?" You tried to be nice, but there was a limited amount of kindness you could give to your potential stalker. Joel just stared at you. And before you were able to say anything, Sunny steps in.

"He's your new co-worker Sunshine!-" He clapped his hands together. "-Isn't that great? Since you seem to know each other, it'll work out nicely!" The second Joel heard the nickname he gave a sharp glare towards Sunny. You could see a hint of confusion, Anger, and pain in the man's eyes.

Sun gave himself a small hug, before looking at you with an expression of confusion. But you could see a hidden hint of worry there as-well.

"So.. Y/n! How has it been? I really missed you!"
You shrug. "It's.. fine. I guess... nothing really interesting happened while you were away.."
"...ah.....well... Same for me!" You could see his expression light up while saying your response.

Click.

"For fucksake.." you hear the man whisper from under his breath. You let out a sigh. "It's just a power outage. What..? Scared of the dark Joey?~"

Before anything else happened, you already knew the drill. "Why welcome back Moony~!"
You felt his somewhat eerie stare on you.

"You were supposed to be here at 6:15. You're late." Moon slightly tilts his head towards you.
"Right.. Sorry about that Moon. I had business to attend to."
He rolls his eyes before focusing on Joel. Who had a butt-ton of emotions on his face.

"Alright Y/n! Why not give me a tour? I am new here after all!" He coughed out.
You start to follow him, after taking a step towards the exit, Moon lightly hops towards you, very gently taking hold of your hand. This action completely flustered you. Making very light blush cross your face. You start to smile.

"Don't leave so soon.. I just got here Starlight~"
Gosh. You just loved they way he says that name.

Joel however, didn't enjoy the tone of Moons voice while saying that. Nor did he enjoy then nickname given to you. He was pissed about this. He grabbed your hand, with a lot more strength. And pulled you towards him. "Let's GO."

But this was Moon that he disrupted. Moon doesn't have the same heart as Sun. Moon starts to fully stand up, Revealing his full height. And because you didn't want anyone to die today, "Isn't there anyone else you could ask?"

Moon sits down next to you. Making himself somewhat closer to you then the other. Staring up at you then at Joel then back at you, He asks

"Who is this Y/n?" Moon growled.

"Him..? Oh, He used to be my lover."
