Solars shook as he stumbled into Earth's room. For once, he couldn't find anything to fix around the pizzaplex. And that gave him free time. And then his thoughts started again. And he felt like if he didn't tell. someone they were going to burn him mental--ok yea he wanted--needed--to talk to someone
Earth was talking with Pollux, who Solar had very recently become acquainted with. Seeing Solar enter they quickly left the area. A shiver ran down his spine;something about them teleporting, especially after Lunar explained it, gave him the spooks. Earth turned to him, smiling warmly.
" Solar! It's nice to see you. " She waved, her poofy cloud hair swaying back and fourth. Solar waved back. " Hey, Earth.. Ah, can we talk. Like, serious talk? " a concerned look popped onto her face plate. " Solar, you do know you can talk to me on this. Nothing leaves this room unless it's concerning enough, ok? "
It took a second, before what she thought he meant clicked. " No! No! It's not l.. Bad thoughts. " Earth exhaled, her expression becoming a little calmer. " Oh, that's good. I was really worried that was the case, considering how tense you've seemed as of lately. " Has he really been like that? Maybe he was losing his poker face.
" It's just.. Well, it's Moon. " Earth tilted her head, crouching so she was at an even height with Solar. He began pacing, something he did when stressed. Or when he just needed to think. " Whenever I'm near him, i get this--its a feeling. I don't know what it is. I feel like I'm going to explode, and everything feels all fuzzy;id something wrong with me!? Am i malfunctioning!? "
Earth looked a bit puzzled, before she suddenly started laughing. Solar looked over at her, a bit confused. " Why.. Why are you laughing? " when she finally stopped, she spoke seriously. " Describe it to me more, please. " he nodded. " It's, like, whenever I'm near him i feel like I'm really happy. And my rays start spinning. And i just feel all--yea, you get the point.. "
He wasn't good at expressing his feelings. Earth knee this. He really hoped she actually got the point. Earth nodded, holding back a laugh. " Solar, that's love. You love Moon, don't you? " he paused. Love? Did he love Moon? He started pacing again, the thump of his footsteps keeping him from zoning out completely
Was it love? Did he know what that was? A thought suddenly crossed his mind. " Moon's aroace.. He doesn't-- he can't. " Earth shook her head. " That's not completely true. It's.. Well, it's a spectrum, you know? Some people can't feel love, while others can only feel love towards someone they have a deep connection with. "
" Oh. " Solar stood still. Maybe this was.. Well, a thing. Maybe he wouldn't take a vow of silence and never tell Moon. Maybe he'd tell him.
Don't. You'll just hurt him.
He tugged at his rays a bit, taunting thoughts filling his head. Earth stood, walking over and pulling Solars hands from his rays. " You should go talk to him. He may not like you, since i haven't asked what part of the spectrum he is, but it'll do some good to at least get it out. "
He nodded, looking to the ground then back at Earth. ".. Sure. Why not. I may as well get it out. " Earth gave him a thumbs up. " I'm sure even if he's not a.. Well, Love-person, i don't think there's any harm in asking. " he nodded, hesitating. ".. Thank you, Earth. " He would've hugged her, but be wasn't much of a physical affection person. He turned to leave, hearing Earth tell him " Good luck! " as he left.
Earth paused waiting a moment. Pollux fizzled back into existence a second or so later. " HOLY MOLY! "She looked shocked. Utterly flabbergasted. Baffled, even. Earth couldn't help but laugh at the confusion they had towards the conversation.
" Hey, Moon? " Solars rays spun lightly as he crawled into Moon's room. Moon turned, his expression getting.. A bit happier? No, he was probably just seeing things. " What's up, Solar? " he tugged at his gloves a bit. " Odd question, ah, do you feel love? " Moon paused for a second, inhaling.
" Yes, technically. I'm aro/ace, yet i can still feel ROMANTIC. Love. Towards people i have a close bond with. It's a whole spectrum. Why? " Solar inhaled, looking from the ground back at Moon.
".. You gonna say anything--"
" I'm literally in love with you. "
Moon was, well stunned. He dropped the wrench he was holding, swiftly grabbing it before it hit the ground. Setting it on the arcade cabinet that housed the computer, he turned towards Solar. " Uhm.. Uh.. You wanna elaborate on that? " he nodded. " I talked to Earth. I said i feel, well, i feel really happy when i see you. And whenever i see you i feel, like.. Fuzzy. "
" And i always feel like I'm gonna explode whenever you look at me, or-- or whenever you do small things, like hold my hand or something!.. " He paused. " God i sound pathetic, don't i? " Moon shrugged. " A bit. " Solar glared at the ground shaking his head. " This was stupid.. Sorry, just forget about it--"
Moon put his hands on Solars shoulders, giving him a peck on the cheek. Solar felt his fans kick on, the soft whirring keeping him in reality. His rays were spinning. " Oh? " He stuttered out. Moon nodded smiling. " Oh. " he pulled back, pulling at his hat. " God, that was--that was weird. Reallly weird. But also, like, nice? Does that make sense? "
Solar nodded, his eyes wide. A faint red tinted his faceplate, which was already a sort of red and black to begin with.
" Ah.. Uhm.. "
" Uhm? "
Moon waited a bit, taking a step forward and grasping Solars hands in his own. " Look at me, cheeto;i like you a lot. And i thought it was platonic. Maybe i wished it was. But i love you. " Solar inhaled sharply, feeling his internal fans kick on.
".. You love me. "
" Yea. I love you. "
Moon said it so calmly, despite how not calm he was. He looked from side to side as a silence filled the room. Moon got up, speaking as he turned to leave. " Friday, 4:30, after closing. " " What? " Solar tilted his head, taking a step forward. " Friday, we'll talk about this. See what we wanna do about it. Sound good to you? " he quickly nodded. " Yea-- yea sounds good. " Moon nodded, turning to leave, leaving the faint sound of jingling bells in his wake.
Solar stood there, putting a hand to the front of his faceplate. Moon liked him. I love you. Those words made him feel.. Funny. He turned towards the tunnel Moon had just left through, quickly leaving the celestials room. He felt weird for saying for so long. He took a few deep breaths. This was fine.
I love you.
