The next day, I packed my bag and got ready for work. It wouldn't be as.. Eventful.. As my old job was, but that was just what I needed, a break. I walked to the entrance and was greeted by my manager.

-"Says here you have experience working in stores, so you should know what to do, right?"

I nodded proudly, I'd worked a ton of jobs in my time.

-"Great, you'll be working at register 14, good luck."

He handed me my work vest, ID, and left. I slipped it on over my sleeves, I had worn a long sleeve shirt, jeans and boots to hide all the bandages on me. I walked to the register I was assigned and clocked in. Working at a store wasn't too hard of a job, as long as I wasn't running around restocking. But I put it in the email that I couldn't move around much, so I should be fine. I watched as shoppers started to come in. After my shift I'd go around and get some groceries, there's something I needed.

Suns POV

I sat on the ground, bored. I stared at nothing but the endless void. I looked at the time. 9:06 AM. Y/N left at 8:58 AM. I hope they would be back soon. They couldn't be gone that long, could they?

.

I checked the time again, 9:30. Time felt like it was going by too slow.

-"Sun?"

I looked over at the door, DJ stood there. Y/N was so happy to see him alive again, but I didn't know how to feel about him, I had little interaction with DJ, since I rarely left the daycare and he stayed in one spot that was usually too dark for me to be in.

-"You good, bud?"

I wouldn't call him 'bud' back, but he was sure the friendly type. I turned my head back to the ground.

-"Yeah.. I just miss Y/N.."

DJ came over and sat near me.

-"I get it, I miss them too. You're used to being around people 24/7, but now your going to be alone all day, every day."

-"You don't miss them like I do."

-"Excuse me?"

DJ seemed taken aback by my statement, but I meant it. He did not miss Y/N like me and Moon did. He was only their friend. How could he understand how we feel?. . . I didn't want to cause an argument.

-"Nevermind."

DJ seemed unnerved, but kept his cool.

-"If you need someone to talk to, I'm here."

I nodded, and DJ left.

It was starting to get dark out now.

Moons POV

It was 6:23. Y/N was still gone. When were they going to be back? DJ came back in the room, great, just what I needed.

-"You doing good?"

-"Why does it matter to you?"

DJ went silent, then changed the subject.

-"You wanna talk?"

-"I don't 'talk.' Especially not with the likes of you."

DJ frowned, leaving the room. I stared at the floor again, like Sun had been for hours.

.

7:12 PM. Where the hell were they? Why hadn't Y/N come back yet? Did they leave? Did they abandon us? Did they really go to work, or did they run off to be without us? I felt that burning in the back of my head.

Y/Ns POV

I walked inside the house, placing grocery bags down on the table in the kitchen. I heard a thud upstairs and then screaming. Moons screaming. I dropped everything and ran up the stairs. I checked every room, and found him on the floor of my bedroom, holding his head and screaming, his eyes closed tight. DJ was standing a few feet away, shocked and worried. I ran and dropped down to my knees next to Moon.

-"Moon!"

His screaming got louder, and he gripped his head tighter. I grabbed both of his wrists, and he opened his eyes, staring at me. Just like last time this happened, one of his eyes were purple, the other red. He stopped screaming, breathing heavily.

-"It's okay.. I'm here.. I'm right here.."

He grabbed me and hugged me tightly. He started sobbing. I silently hugged him back, trying to calm him down. I looked over at DJ, and he mouthed words.

-'happened before?'

I nodded, and mouthed back.

-'one time.'

He backed out of the room, leaving me and Moon alone. Moon tried to say something, but it just came out in weird voice glitches.

-"Shh, it's okay, you're okay.."

He nodded, and started to get up, trying to carry me. He fell over, I landed on my feet and caught him before he could fall over. He was physically shaking and struggling to stand up. I carefully helped him to the bed, sitting down with him. He layed back on a pillow, still shaking.

-"I have to go put some stuff away-"

I started to get up, but be grabbed my arm and pulled me back down next to him.

-"N𝙊!"

I frowned, what caused this to happen again? He took one of my hands, squeezing it tightly.

-"You we're gone.. 𝙁𝙤𝙧 𝙨𝙤 long.. 𝙒𝙝𝙮?"

-".. I have to work from 9 to 5, I had to stay out late to run some errands.. I promise I won't do it again without telling you.."

He nodded, starting to calm down. He closed his eyes, starting to fall asleep. I myself felt pretty tired, so I did the same.
