Short circuit

twelve

(Name) POV

"(Name), what the hell was that!?" Hank yelled as I looked at him calmly. Usually under these circumstances I'd flinch at someone telling but right now, I was in the state of not giving a single fuck. "I do not know what you were referring to" I answer calmly, still in my state of not giving a single fuck.

"All of it! You can't let anger get the best of you!" Hank yelled in my face as I slightly shivered. "And who's the one freezing their ass off right now Hank? Huh? Not you. I am. I'm the one freezing my ass off. I was the one who he decided to fuck with and kiss. Did he kiss you? No, he didn't-" "So that's what a kiss is..." Connor commented and I glared at him. "A kiss isn't supposed to be against your will Connor. You of all fucking people should know that. You're the internet all inside one person and you don't even know that." I snap, freezing. "You are cold (Name), here, take my coat to warm up your body temperature. Your chances of getting sick is growing higher with each passing second" Connor says, removing his jacket and putting it over my shoulders. Even despite me being rude to him, he still was being kind. I felt remorse for snapping at Connor when it wasn't his fault.

"Take me home" I say and walk to the car with both Connor and Hank following. Hank seemed like he wanted to say something but couldn't. "I'm sorry (Name) I guess it was the fact he didn't tell us anything and I got upset. Although, is still is your fault about that" Hank said. I laughed bitterly at that.

"I'm sorry I got assaulted and pushed into a pool. I'm sorry I didn't allow Connor into the Android's head. I apologize for not being the perfect partner like Connor. Yeah, it's my fault and I'm sorry. My bad Lieutenant" I respond. "In all honesty Lieutenant, I was not going to pull that trigger" Connor confessed and Hank opened the car door and unlocked the car. I sat in the back seat with Connor's jacket on my shoulders. Connor got into the backseat with me and I look at him as if he grew a second head. "What are you doing?" I commanded more than asked. Connor then pulled me closer to him and I felt the warmth of him being close to me. "Your temperature is low. If you do not warm up soon, you will be certain to fall ill" Connor said and pulled me closer. I was feeling the warmth of Connor.

"Connor, your shirt is getting wet because of me" I say and started to move away from him. He pulls me back in to share his warmth and I give up trying. I think I've done enough for today as I fall asleep, definitely a long way away from Detroit and my house.

Connor POV

I noticed (Name) go to sleep (sleep? What's that?) and I made sure she was comfortable. I look into the mirror making eye contact with lieutenant. " lieutenant, I know this is out of place but it is not completely her fault." I explained as he keeps his eyes on the road. He pressed his lips into a thin line, not wanting to speak at the moment. " I know" he says gruffly, still watching the road. "And I feel like and ass for making her feel like it was her fault" he said.

"Then why... Did you make it seem that way?" I ask curiously. " I have my reasons" he replied, clearly not in a mood to speak. I sit back quietly, trying to find something to do until I spot something in one of the seat pockets behind The Lieutenant's seat. Pulling the item out, I see that it's (Name)'s phone. I turn it in and the lock screen is of her cat. I smile when I see (cat's name) there, looking up at the camera with big (cat's eye color) eyes.

I see that she has a passcode on it and I notice it has numbers on it. I try random birth dates, which could have been her father's and surprising the date 2008 worked. Once I opened it up, the home screen was a different photo. The photo had me stare at it for a while, wondering how I felt about the picture.

It was a hand drawn photo of me wearing a crown of flowers. I looked down at (Name) to see she hasn't awoken yet, and the Lieutenant was focused more on driving than what I was doing. I look down at the picture and smile. (Name) turned a bit in her sleep but not to where she would awaken. I went into her photos and seen different drawn photos. I seen a few more of me and finally I seen one more that caught my attention the most. It was a picture of me petting (cat's name) on the couch. (Name) seemed to have drawn it from memory, but most of the main details were correct. Although, she did not draw the suit I usually wear to tell people I am an Android. It was... Casual attire as one would put it.

I then opened the camera and smiled before taking a picture of myself. The picture came out and I took another, one where (Name) is also in the shot and laying on my shoulder. I put the phone back, arriving at (Name)'s house. I take (Name)'s house keys from her pocket and I pick her up, carrying her to her front door. Hank opened the door and I carried her to her room, not wanting to wake her much. By now, her clothes were still damp, meaning I'd have to wake her up so she can change clothes. I go to her closet and scan around, finding warm and comfortable clothing that were suitable for her to wear. I then see undergarments on a hanger which seemed... Exotic but I made sure to not look at them much as I took the hanger and set it on her bed.

I go to the side where she is laying and I kneel down, eye level to her. "(Name)" I say, pushing her shoulder slightly and she woke up briefly. I noticed that (Name) was not fully awake and so I tried again. "(Name) wake up" I say, more stern this time and she opened her eyes, drowsy from sleep. "You have to change out of your clothes, you could get sick" I say with less sternness and she rolls over. "Do it yourself" I hear her mumble and I frowned while looking at the pile of clothes on her bed.

"I cannot do that. Touching someone in an indecent way without their conscious consent is against the law" I counter, not thinking anything of it. She doesn't respond so I go over to the side she rolled to. I grab a pillow and bring it into the air, bringing it back and hitting her with the pillow. It was a harmless gesture, and I kept doing this until she actually got up.

"Why Connor..." (Name) whined and tried to roll back over but I stopped her.

Name POV

His arm around my waist stopped me from rolling over and I felt more of his weight on the bed and I huffed in annoyance. I turned back over to be met with a sight that would destroy me. How Connor was positioned, it seemed like it was one of those scenes that could have came from fifty shades of grey. It was at this moment, I had one singular thought about all this.

'What ovaries?'

Once I thought that, I didn't know what happened with my brain. Was it bad to think of an Android in a way outside of the field of work? Heck yes. But did my mind change course of how I was thinking at this moment? Hell no.

The only thing my mind was processing was Connor with his sleeves rolled to his elbows and his tie hanging loosely. The fact he had a serious look brought even more casualties within me. I was caged in his arms and that was the last thing my mind processed.

The combination of a strong alpha male with a stern look who had me in his cage was enough to destroy everything within me. I knew my heart rate was increasing and I knew my body temperature was skyrocketing through the hemisphere at this very moment. The only thing I was able to do was stare.

And stare I did.

Connor didn't seem to move either, nor did he say a word. His LED was changed to yellow and I didn't know what he was doing or thinking at the moment. It was like this for a while, until he spoke.

"(Name), your heart rate is increasing and the temperature of your body is increased highly. Are you alright?" Connor asked and I couldn't even speak. I didn't know how to even breathe at the moment. "Hold on a minute" Connor says and he goes into the living room. I hear him speaking to Hank.

"Lieutenant, I think something may be wrong with (Name)" I hear Connor say. "What do you mean?" Hank asks and I knew a whole storm was coming for me. "Her expression and body language seemed... Off" Connor said.

"What?" I hear Hank ask

Oh no...
