Smith and Will turned to see a very angry looking (y/n) at the doorway. Smith winced and patted the boy. "I'll leave you to your girlfriend. Good luck." She exited the room with a skip in her step.

(y/n) didn't give a glance to the woman, only staring at Will who grew nervous. 

"Um hi. H-How long have you been there?" (y/n) pinched the bridge of her nose and walked to towards the boy. His eyes followed her every movement as she sat on the edge of the table beside him and stared. 

"I didn't take the ore." Will whispered out, fidgeting with the ring he was wearing on his finger.

"You didn't? But you just confessed to Smith that you did."

"I lied. But I think I know who did it." (y/n) blinked at Will, waiting for him to tell her who, but it seemed that he was too focused to answer.

(y/n) rolled her eyes and moved on. "And the robots. Are they really after you?"

The boy nodded solemnly. "Those nightmares I keep getting, it's always about them. And it's just a feeling, I-I don't know how to describe it." (y/n) looked at the boy sadly and took his hands in hers, intertwining their fingers.

"I thought we promised not to keep secrets from each other." She whispered.

Will looked at her. "I know, I'm sorry. I just didn't want to worry you. Besides, I fine now." (y/n) gave him an unamused look. "Mostly fine now."

The girl hummed, playing with the boys fingers as he looked at her with a smile. The smile was soon wiped when he remembered the events that occurred nearly a few hours ago. Turning sad, he told the girl, "I'm not the only one keeping secrets."

(y/n) tilted her head in confusion. "What do you mean?"

"You're new friend." Will sour, looking away. "Damian or whatever his name is."

"Oh him. We've been friends since we were babies. I thought it would be good for us to catch up every once in a while." She responded nonchalantly. 

"Then why haven't I seen you hang out with him before?" 

"Will. I think you're forgetting that before we came to this planet, you and I were fugitives on a very big space ship. Didn't exactly get the chance to pop in and say hello."

Will's sadness subsided as he nervously rubbed the back of his neck. "Oh. I thought you guys were just, getting friendly."

"Getting friendly? You mean flirting." The girl smirked.

"You know what I mean. You guys were just so close and I thought something happened."

"Jealous?"

"You wish."
