Connected [ Squip x Unisex! Reader]

~[ Chapter 13 ]~

You open the door and walk inside. The music was so loud you already felt like you were going deaf. You don't seem to know anyone here... You look around for Michael.

You find him arguing with Jeremy.

"What?! Are you too "cool" to hang out with me and (Y/N) all of a sudden?!"

"Yeah! You're a loser!" Jeremy yelled and then pushed Michael into the bathroom and closed the door on him. He walked away and then you see Chloe dragging him upstairs.

You knock on the bathroom door.

"Hello? Michael?"

"I-I'm having my period!"

"Michael... Let me in"

He unlocks the door and opens it. You walk in and close it again.

"What happened?"

"I was confronting Jeremy about ignoring us..." He starts tearing up. "He doesn't even seem to be thinking for himself at all, (Y/N). I tried to tell him about this other guy who had a Squip... He's in a mental hospital now from trying to get it out! He wouldn't listen to me though!"

You sit next to him.

"I don't think he will listen. We just have to wait until he realizes his mistakes, okay? I don't know when that will happen. But eventually, he'll realize he needs us!"

Michael laughs and smiles. "Yeah! He totally needs us!"

You guys decide to stay there for a little until Michale completely calms down. After a few minutes, Michael puts his head on your shoulder. You put your arms around him. 

"I-I really love you, (Y/N). You probably don't feel the same... But I just... I wanted you to know..."

Squip looks at him with a disapproving look. He doesn't seem happy.

"Michael... I'm sorry. I really care about you... But I can't love you back... I-I love someone else..."

~~~~ Squip POV ~~~~

Michael put his head on (Y/N)'s shoulder... Why is he touching them? T-They're not okay with this, right?!

  "I-I really love you, (Y/N). You probably don't feel the same... But I just... I wanted you to know..." 

Why did this actually hurt to hear? They don't love him back... Why does it hurt so much?

 I look at Michael. I'm annoyed...

  "Michael... I'm sorry. I really care about you... But I can't love you back... I-I love someone else..." 

Hearing (Y/N) say this made me feel so much better... I'm... Relieved. 

~~~~ (Y/N) POV ~~~~

"Hey... It's fine, (Y/N)... But. May I ask who you love..?"

"O-Oh..." 

You look at Squip.

"Go on." He smiles nicely.

"You know the computer I got implanted in my brain..?"

"Uh... Yeah..."

"I love him..."
