 Montgomery didn't know how to feel after seeing Moon act like that. He was kind of excited because he now knew for sure that they both felt the same about each other, but at the same time he felt guilty. It was like he exposed a secret of Moons to his brother. He watched as Sun walked towards them. Something about his smile was different, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

 "Are you alright Moony?" He asked in a concerned tone.

 "Yeah," Moon replied, "I'm fine.."

 He was obviously lying. It was easy to tell since he began to fidget with the ribbons on his wrist. 

 Sun connected himself to the silver cable that still hung nearby, "Well, I'll leave you guys alone, Call for me if you need anything!"

 Monty swore he heard him giggling as he slowly floated up to the podium and disappeared. Moon was right. He was definitely better at 'flying' then Sun was. 

 "I am definitely going to be bullied over this later." Moon said with a shaky sigh. 

 "Has that happened before?" Monty asked.

 "No," Moon replied, "It felt really weird, as if I was in a trance." He looked down as his gloved hands covered his face, "Man, that was stupid."

 Monty grabbed hold of both of his wrists, causing him to look up slightly. His eyes looked..afraid, maybe even upset. 

 "Maybe it came with the new look you have." Monty replied. He made sure to choose his words carefully so that it didn't make it clear that he was watching them the other day.

 "Why would they do THIS to me though?" He asked.

 "Maybe it was to make you more... oh what's the word?" Monty wasn't programmed with enough IQ for these situations.

"Emotional?" 

 "No, No, that's not it," After a few seconds he managed to figure it out, "Relatable!"

 Monty was surprised to see his crush look up a bit more, lowering his hands slightly, "What do you mean by that?" He tilted his head slightly with confusion. It was the same way he did so when Christmas Eve was mentioned to him. 

 "Well most feel the same as you do in these kinds of situations, so I'm guessing if any of the children see you like this they'll see that its alright about feeling this way? Sorry if that doesn't make since I-"

 Moon placed a finger at the front of the alligators snout, "Its fine I... think I understand." He proceeded to take his finger away as he chuckled, "Are you... blushing?"

 Monty put a hand over his cheek, and was surprised to see that he was. Usually he could feel right away when it was happening, but not this time. Maybe he was to focused on listening to feel it, but he didn't know. He wasn't an expert when it came to the thing. 

 "Well, I guess I am," He tried to sound less embarrassed, "I mean, who could blame me though?"

 "Me," The attendant laughed, "For asking me to fly around the daycare in the first place!" 

 "Hey you said yes, so its technically your fault." Monty replied. He liked how much Moon argued. It was almost as if he learned all of this stuff from the kids he took care of. 

 They both laughed before looking up at the podium. They weren't embarrassed to see Sun peeking over the ledge. In fact, they kind of knew that he was there the whole time, but they were distracted with their own problems. When Sun hid away, it was as if a light bulb appeared over Moons head. He whispered this plan to Monty, and he couldn't help but agree to join this slightly evil plan that had hatched in the attendants head.

 "Hey Sun!" Moon called out.

 "Yes brother?" He pretended to have just woken up, stretching as he walked on to the podium. 

 "Can you pass down the cable?" Moon asked.

 "Sure!" Sun giggled as he passed it down. 

 "Stay up there alright? I gotta talk to you!" Moon told his brother as he attached the cable to himself. 

 "Uh... sure thing Moony!"

 Moon turned to Monty and winked before flying up to the balcony in a flash, putting and arm around his brother. He used his other arm to take the cable off of him, only to reattach it onto Sun.

 "Monty just wanted to see you fly around," Moon put on a cheery voice as he said this, "Just to see who is better."

 "Well, of course you're better at this kind of thing Moon!" Sun told him nervously. He looked down to see Monty nodding. 

 Moon flicked one of his brothers rays lightly, "I know, but how is he going to know without proof?" 

 "I don't know about this brother.." Sun looked genuinely unsure. 

 "Oh come on Sunny, how about you take it for a SPIN!" 

 Right after Moon said so he pushed Sun right off of the podium without warning. Sun began to spin fast as he slowly lowered, making him dizzy. He heard his brother laughing from the podium as he tried to gain control over the cable. He began to scream.

"Help!" 

"Sorry, I can't!" Moon told him in a low, sad tone from above.

"Why not?"

"I'm too busy diving into the ball pit!" 

 After a few seconds, he heard his brother crash into the ball pit from below. He thought his rays were going to fall off because of how fast he was spinning. Luckily for him, that didn't happen. Something stopped him. 

 "Hey Sunny~" Monty greeted him with a chuckle.

 This didn't help his dizziness at all. He began to feel nauseous.

 "Put... me down." He ordered as he felt his rays begin to move slowly around his head. 

 "Are you sure you want me to do that?" The gator asked, "You certainly don't look alright."

As his vision began to clear up again, he looked away to see Moon swimming around in the ball pit. He couldn't help but laugh at the sight. He didn't think he would see the day.

 He looked happier than ever.
