Need You

Aries POV
A few hours after Sapphire is gone and Aiden came back in. "I cant believe you got away with that" I say. "Shut up" he says. "Its clear that you dont agree with most of their decisions. Why dont you just leave?" I ask. "Its not that easy" he says. "We havent given up on you Aiden" I say. He groaned. He stood up and walked behind me. He untied me. "Go" he says. "What?" I ask standing up. "Go before I change my mind" he says. We stared at each other for a moment. I hugged him. He hesitated but lightly hugged back. "Call of you need anything" I say. I ran outside and realized I have no clue where I am. I guess Im gonna have to book it.

Im panting, and dripping with sweat. My parents didnt answer the door so I went to Sapphires apartment. I banged on the door. My legs are starting to fail me. Dex opened the door and I heard Sapphire gasp behind him. "Help me" I panted. "Come in son, its alright" Dex says. Sapphire helped me get to their couch. "How did you escape?" She asks. Dex called the cops. "He let me go" I panted. Sapphire sat next to me, kissed my head and hugged me. "Im so glad you're ok. You scared me" she says. "Im just glad you made it out." I say. "Come on, we're going back to the station" Dex says.

I walked in and Kari ran to me. We hugged tightly. "Are you ok?" She asks. "Im fine" I say. I hugged my parents. This explains why they werent home. Andy walked to me. "Come on Aries, lets get you cleaned up" he says. "Can I have some water first?" I ask.

Wyatts POV
We're laying in my bed. Shes asleep on my chest. Feeling her bare skin against mine is amazing. Listening to her breathe in her sleep is so calming. I woke up at around three in the morning when my phone buzzed. I checked it and there was two messages. One is from my dad. I checked it. He's on his way home. I smiled. I felt Luna stir in her sleep. I looked down at her. She slowly opened her eyes. "What are you doing?" She asks tiredly. I checked the other message which is from Andy. "Aries is ok" I say. She groaned and turned away from me. "Can you stop worrying about work and let us have a romantic moment?" She says. "Someones grumpy" I say. I put my phone down and put my arm around her. "Just so you know, it wasnt just work. My dad is coming back" I say. She turned over to look at me. "Good luck with that" she says throwing her arms around me and laying into my chest again. I kissed her head and fell back asleep.

Jacks POV
"Hey Spotter. What did I hear about last night?" I ask. "Oh, Wyatt caught one of the kingsmen" he says. "Thats awesome" i say. "Yeah. Did you get a new jacket? It looks good on you" he says. I looked down my wardrobe. "Yeah my dad gave it to me. It was my moms" I say. "It fits you well" he says. I smiled. "Thanks" I say. "You wanna hang out?" He asks. "Yeah actually. I need to talk to you" I say.

"So whats up?" He asks. We're in the fire garage. He's cleaning up. "I got into a argument with Duke. He was telling me about moving on from my mom and I got mad and yelled at him and now he wont talk to me. To make it worse, dad told me about how sad Duke has been and how he's just trying to stay positive so that he isnt depressed. I feel bad" I say. He leaned back against the fire truck. "Then maybe you should talk to him" he says. "Yeah but I was rude to him. He doesn't want to see me" I say. "Then make him see you" he says. "Ill try. Thanks Spot" I say. "Spot?" He asks. I got red. "I mean, no better than spotter" I say. He laughs. "They call me that because we used to have a fire dog named Spotter. When he died, I took his name" he says. "Thats sweet" I say. He put his hand on my shoulder. I wish he'd touch me more. Literally anywhere. "Go find your brother" he says. I nod and leave.

Im at Andys apartment. I went to Tyler's room but stopped before I opened the door. I can hear them. "Ive never been mad at him before! He thinks Ive moved on as if its that easy. Just because im moving on doesn't mean ive already done it" he says. "Well, and bare with me here, I think you were both kinda in the wrong" Tyler said. "What?" Duke says. "You're mad at him for the same reason he's mad at you. For accusing each other of moving on. You guys need to have an honest conversation about your emotions. You cant hide the truth from him. Especially not with something like this" tyler says. Duke was silent for a moment. "You make a good therapist" he says. Tyler laughed. "Thanks" he says. I backed away from the door and left.

Im home. Duke came home late. "Hey, were you with Jasmine again?" I ask. "No. Production just ran a little late. There was a glitch in the video that was hard to fix" he says. "I stopped by earlier" I say. He looked over at me. "Im sorry Duke. I didnt know you were hurting so bad." I say. His eyes widened. "Dad told me" I say. He took his hat off and started fidgeting with it. "Im sorry too. I shouldn't have thought you were moving on" he says. "But you were right! I am moving on. Im sorry I got so mad" I say. "Im sorry Ive been so annoying" he says. We laughed. "Its ok. You were right. It does help dad and I feel better" I say. He hugged me. He sniffed and then backed up. "Is that moms jacket?" He asks. I nod. "I was having a hard time moving on too" I say. "Yeah well, you know what makes it easier?" He asks. "What?" I ask. "A good partner" he says. "What do you mean?" I ask. He looked at me like Im dumb. "Bro, just ask him out. Please. Its paining me to watch. You two obviously like each other" he says. "Just because he's gay doesn't mean shit" I say. "Whatever you say" he says. I rolled my eyes. "Boys!" Dad says. We ran out. "Yeah dad?" We ask. "You wanna watch a movie? I ordered dinner" he says. We looked at each other and then him. "Sure" we said.

Patchs POV
I pulled into the parking garage and we got out of the car. "Do wanna go to the hotel? You're free to stay with me if you dont hate me to much" I say. "Ill stay with you. Not because I dont hate you, but because one, i want to spend time with my son and two, I dont want to waste money when I dont have too" she says. "I live in an RV. Are you sure?" I ask. "I hope your couch is comfortable" she says.

I opened the door. Wyatt is asleep on the couch with the tv still playing. He's gonna have a neck ache when he wakes up. "Looks comfortable for him" I say. Shes star struck. "Thats him?" She asks. "Yep" I say. I went to him and bent down. "Wyatt. Wake up" I shook up gently. He groaned and turned over to look at me. "Dad?" He asked sleepily. "Hey" I say with a smile. He jumped on me and hugged me. "Dad!" He says. I hesitated but hugged back. I wasnt expecting this. "Dont do that again. I need you. I missed you" he says. "Im here kid, I missed you too, but I did do what I said" I say. He backed up. We stood up. "Wyatt, this is your mother. Zephyr" I say.
