Detroit: Become Human One Shots [COMPLETED]

Clearing Baggage [Connor x Reader] PT2

[REQUESTED]

Several months had passed after you caught Connor cheating on you. Several months of you sitting on Hank's couch, sobbing your soul out while stroking Sumo's fur. Several months of adverting your gaze from the gentle faced android. Several months of requesting different cases from him. 

Several months, however, brought you to meet an amazing guy. He was kind, caring, funny, and humble. He knew which situations called for certain actions. He was just an overall loving guy and you found yourself quickly falling for him. The relationship between you two was nothing but pure bliss, even Hank, himself, saw this and approved of him immediately. If it wasn't his personality that reeled you in, it was the common background you had - both of you had been cheated on. 

"Hmm, what about this place," you were wrapped up in your large winter coat, walking hand-in-hand down the Detroit streets with your current boyfriend, "it seems like it's cozy. Plus, I've heard their hot chocolate is to die for!"

Without any hesitation, he yanked you inside the cafe, smiling at you as his eyes focused on you rather than the menu. "I think I'm going to get a hot chocolate," you broke your eye contact from the menu and met his eyes, "stop staring, you're going to make me blush."

"I can't help it, you're just so-" his voice trailed off as he widened his eyes, staring in pure shock past you before snapping from his thoughts and turning both you and him away from whatever he spotted.

"W-What," you attempt to turn but he keeps you from turning, saying it was for your own good, but was cut off by a familiar voice.

"Oh, it's nice to see you again Detective," your eyes widen, much like your boyfriend's previously had, as you turn sharply, facing the RK800 android directly.

"Uh, Connor, it's...nice, I suppose. What are you doing here, androids don't need to eat," he blinked at you before stepping to the side, revealing the same female he had cheated on you with, "oh, hello." 

"Well isn't this a straight up coincidence?" All eyes direct to your boyfriend, who was glancing between Connor and the girl. "This is my ex." You smile softly at her, jutting your hand out and shaking hers gently.

"And this is mine, Connor," you watch as your boyfriend firmly shakes the RK800's hand, never breaking direct eye contact.

The ringing of your phone echoed across the small cafe. Excusing yourself, you step outside and answer the call. It wasn't anything too important, just Hank asking you if you could give him a ride home from the bar. You didn't decline, obviously thankful for his actions over the past months, "Of course Hank, I'll be right there." As you're about to rush back inside, you're stopped by the android you previously had dated. 

"Was that Lieutenant," you nod, trying to push past him in an attempt to tell your boyfriend of the happenings, but Connor was determined to make you hear him out, "listen, about the past-"

"Connor, there's nothing to talk about. You cheated. You can be sorry all you want and I can accept your apologies over and over, but I've come to the realization that I shouldn't dwell on the bad things that happened if I want to live a happy life in the future."

"I'm sorry, I really am, and this might be a shot in the dark, but I still love you." 

You cut him off there. Whatever you just said clearly didn't register with him. You were over Connor and you were happy with your current relationship. With a loud groan, you turn back to the android, pinching the bridge of your nose, "Listen, I appreciate it, I really do, but I'm over you, Connor. I'm with someone else now and if you truly still love me, you'll let me be happy with my current relationship."

And with that, you were gone. Gone from Connor...again. And it was his fault. 

Again.
