Gustav's Pov

Sydney had fell asleep on our movie and I knew that she would because her eyes kept closing. We had watched so many cartoon movies it was night by now. I turned the tv off and I picked Sydney up in my arms. I glitched upstairs to her room and I put her in her bed. I got her underneath the covers and sat in the chair in the corner of her room. I started singing Star Shopping to myself. After awhile Sydney started moving around which made me stop singing.

She then said tiredly,"Keep singing.."

I smirked and kept singing. When the song was over I sighed and looked forward.

"I'll never sing that song live again..."

I thought she wouldn't have heard me but she responded.

"I know..I never got to see you sing it live.." "You never made it to a concert?.." "No.."

I started to feel bad then she sat up.

"Come on. We're going on another walk."

"But it's late..and you were just asleep.." "So? Come with me.." "Fine. Where are we going?" "Just anywhere." "Okay."

So she got ready and we left.

Sydney's Pov

While me and Gus were walking we had heard that guy start talking.

"Well then, going on a little walk are we?"

Gus groaned and I laughed a little bit.

"Please go away. The walk was supposed to be soothing, not annoying." "Oh, pity. Too bad you're not very good at hurting my feelings." "Are you always this annoying or do you like..just do it to personally get on Gus's nerves?" "I do it personally of course."

I rolled my eyes playfully and Gus chuckled.

"He's literally like this every time he shows up." "What can I say? I like you. But alas, I must go again. Other business needs tending. Ciao."

This time I chuckled and then the guy disappeared.

"Why does he just disappear and reappear like that?" "I don't know. He's weird." "I see." "So..are you freaked out yet?" "Like I said on the bridge, I'm glad you've been around."

I could feel him smiling and that made me smile.

"Hey, wanna see something cool?" "Sure. Show me."

He stopped walking and he said,"Get on my back."

I did what he said he glitched. When he did we were on the beach and I giggled at the fast motion. I got off his back and looked forward.

"Race you to the shore." "You're on."

I started running and he stayed standing where he was standing. I kept running as fast as I could but by the time I looked back at him and looked forward again he had already glitched to the shore.

"You like, totally cheated." "I did not." "You did. You glitched here." "Do you have some proof of that?" "No, I guess not."

Once I looked ahead, I stared at the skyline meeting the water. The bright moon reflecting against it.

"It's beautiful out here." "It is."

He took a deep breath in then exhaled.

"I miss stuff like this. Nature at its finest."

I went and grabbed his hand in mine and felt the coldness of it.

"I wish I could give you your life back.." "That's not for you to do..and it's my fault I'm like this.." "You didn't deserve this. No one does. Even if it was caused by a mistake."

I laid my head on his arm and I guess he felt me shiver.

"Are you cold?" "I'm a little chilly but I'll be okay." "I can glitch us back to your house if you want to."

I sat down and made him sit down with me. With my hand still in his.

"Lets just enjoy this view for a little while longer." "Okay."

So we sat and we listened to the waves crash against each other. After we had sat for awhile longer I started to laugh a little bit.

"What's so funny?" "Nothing..just the fact that if somebody seen me laying my head on your arm and stuff I'd probably look absolutely nuts." "Yeah, you would."

We both started laughing and when it died down I was still smiling a little.

"Thank you..Sydney." "For what?" "For not being afraid of me.." "Well, you'll never have to worry about that. Now your friend still kinda scares me." "He still kinda scares me, too. And also, he's not my friend."

We started laughing again then Gus stood up.

"Alright, lets get you back home before you catch a death." "Very funny."

I stood up with him and he got ready for me to get on his back. Once I did he glitched me back home. We were on the porch and he let me down. We went into the house and he locked the door behind us. We went back to my room and I got my shoes off. I jumped onto the bed while he went to sit in the corner.

"Why don't you lay in my bed? I know that corner chair's uncomfortable." "I'll be okay. You just get some sleep." "Fine."

I grabbed a blanket and came towards him with it.

"What are you doing?" "Well, if you're gonna be uncomfortable at least take this blanket." "But I don't-." "Hey, you will take it to make me feel better."

He sighed and took the blanket. I got back into bed and got underneath the covers.

"Sing to me again please." "What do you want me to sing?" "Star Shopping.." "Okay."

He started singing and I automatically started falling into sleep.
