Merome - To The Moon And Back

Requested by: Sososatheplo

Fluffy and I were laying on the grass looking up at the sky, our fenced-in yard keeping us safe from mobs.

"Hey biggums?" He says.

I look over at him, "Yeah fluffy?"

"Have you ever wanted to go to the moon?" He asks, staring up at the sky.

I sit up and look down at him, "Do you want to go to the moon Jerome?"

He shrugs, "It would be pretty cool I guess."

I know that look, the look that says, "I want to say yes but I still want to seem cool."

I lean on one arm and look up, thinking for a moment, "Maybe you can..."

"What?" He sits up.

I don't say anything, I just jump up and run towards the backdoor.

"Mitch, where are you going!?" He follows me inside the house.

I look around to make sure no one else is around before going into Seto's room, being careful not to wake him up as I go over to his shelf full of potions. I grab a bunch of levitating potions, or whatever they're called and quickly leave. I hand over a few potions to Jerome, he looks at them, then at me confused.

"Come on." I grab his arm and pull him back outside.

Jerome stands there and stares at me still confused as I drink the potion. Suddenly, my feet leave the ground slowly and I'm floating, in all honesty, it feels like I'm in water, floating around, it's really cool!

"Biggums, you're flying!?!?" He looks down at the potion in his hand before drinking it, soon, he starts floating too.

I look up at the sky and grab the second potion, remembering I only grabbed four, so this is my last one. I drink it and I slowly float higher above the ground. Jerome does the same. We both are laughing, flying around and trying to get as close to the moon as we possibly can.

I reach my hand out towards the moon, but my smile turns to a frown as I start going down slowly back towards the ground, "N-No, wait!" I wave my arms, but to no avail.

Jerome follows, the effect of the potion wearing off for both of us. I gently land on the grass, looking up at the sky once again. But with a feeling of being further away from the moon.

"Maybe next time?" He says, looking down at me.

I look at him, "We're never getting to the moon are we?"

Jerome puts his hand on mine, "Maybe we will, but don't worry Mitch..." He gets closer to me, "I'd go to the moon and back for you any day." I laugh and playfully push him away, he also laughs.

Jerome stands up and waits for me, I roll over on my stomach and jump up, "Race ya inside!" I yell as I run towards the door.

I let him win.
