Chapter 25 Uncomfortable
♥︎♡♥︎♡♥︎ Moon's P.O.V. ♥︎♡♥︎♡♥︎

I woke up to the sound of someone walking past my bedroom. I sat up in my bed and checked the time. It was only 5 am. It made me think of the last time Sun woke me up at 5 am. It made me smile to think about it.

I got out of bed and opened my door to see Sun on the balcony, with his legs hanging off the edge. I walked over to him and sat next to him, but still kinda far from how close we normally would be.

"Morning. You're up early."

He looked away from me.

"Why did you leave me last night? I needed you. I was so scared. And you left. Why?"

Sun gave a sad look. His eyes filled with tears. I sighed and grabbed his cheek, and wiped his tears away. I took my hand away and softly spoke.

"Sun, you've been acting differently... for the past few weeks, and you were very mean and controlling. I felt like I couldn't escape. I was sexually assaulted many times. It was all because of a stupid chip that someone put in your head. A parts and services worker pulled it out, and you went back to normal, but.... I think it's gonna take a little time to get used to you again. I'm sorry."

Sun looked utterly shocked.

"MOONY, I'M SO SO SORRY! I love you so much! I would never try to hurt you. Ever! I want to be with you for the rest of my life!"

"I know... I just... need a little space. Is that okay?"

He nodded. I could tell he wanted to hug me. I wanted to comfort him, but... I kinda got uncomfortable... I then decided that I was just going to let him hug me this once. I'm ready for anything else. Hell, I wasn't even ready for this, but for him, I'll do my best.

"You can hug me, just not too tight, please..."

"Okay."

He leaned in and hugged me lightly, barely touching my skin. I closed my eyes quickly, waiting for something to happen. But he didn't do anything. I whimpered softly, and he pulled away from me.

"Sorry..."

"No, I'm sorry. I'm only like this because of the stupid chip. I-"

"No, Moon. STOP!"

His voice scared me at first. He noticed his mistake and looked away for a moment.

"You never did anything wrong. Don't apologize. It's not your fault. It's mine. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I hope you know, I love you so much."

That's... sweet. I needed that. I smiled at him, and he smiled back.

"Thanks, I'm gonna go get dressed."

I stood up and went to my room again. I picked out some fresh clothes and put them on. I stopped and thought about Sun. I love him, I do... I just... need some time. I wish this never happened. I wish I could just go back to normal and love Sun the way I used to..

Before I knew it, Sun was opening the daycare. I could hear his squeaky voice, talking to someone, most likely the children.
