Lookism Gun X Reader: I'm Not Her (Book 2)

Y'all Weird

†YN's POV†

"Thank you, Johnny! You were a big help!" I beamed as he set down the last spoon.

"Yay!" He excitedly jumped up and down.

"Yay!" I clapped.

"Yay!"

We both turned to see a happy Maple carried in by Gun.

She had no idea what was going on but wanted to join in on the celebration.

I giggled as Gun carried her over to me.

"Hi, baby! All clean?"

"Yeah!"

"That's so good! Say thank you, Russ!"

"Don't call me that!"

"Sit down and eat...Russ."

"Next time you call me that, I'm slitting your throat..."

"Excuse me?" Gun glared and handed me the small child.

"Eh, he just hangry, he'll be a bit more pleasant once he eats."

"Oatmeal? Really?"

"Johnny likes it and Maple can eat it safely." I sat down and began to feed my niece. "There's food in the fridge if you want something different."

"Hmm..." Miller sat down and added some berries, apple chunks, and a bit of milk and honey to his bowl.

"Uss!" She pointed at him.

"Oh great, now she picked up that stupid name!"

"Watch the language around the little ones."

I gave some of the yummy oats to Maple and watched Gun finish preparing Johnny's bowl.

"By the way, why are you almost naked?" I asked curiously.

"Maple demand my full attention. Careful, Jonny, it's still hot."

"She must always be the center of attention, isn't that right, little one?"

She giggled.

"So when are they going back to their parents?" Miller asked and leaned over his bowl protectively as Mapel reached for it.

We all went quiet and I pulled her away.

That wasn't something we weren't ready to talk about.

"Going back? Where?"

"Your family. YN and Gun aren't your parents."

"Russ Miller!"

"You're sending us back?! I thought you loved us!"

"And we do! Gun and I love you both so much, Johnny!"

"Then why are you sending us away!"

Miller gulped up his breakfast and slipped away.

That rat.

"Johnny....the both of us love you...but we don't have custody over you two..."

"Custody? What's that?"

"It means we can't keep you here if your mom wants you back." Gun mixed his bowl of cold mush.

"But you guys are my mommy and daddy, I don't wanna go back!" He sobbed and tears ran down my face.

"Just tell her you have custody and she'll leave!"

"That's not how it works, little one..."

"Then make it work!"

Maple seeing her brother is such distress began to cry.

They were both unconsolable, no matter what we tried.

"You're going to be late for work, you should go on ahead." I sighed as I bounced Maple and pat Johnny's back.

"DON'T GO!" He jumped off the floor and clung on to Gun's leg screaming.

"I have to go, I was called in. I'm already going to be late."

"Johnny, hunny, you need to let go. He's going to be late."

"NO! NOOOOOO!"

It took about five minutes for me to pull him off.

"DADDY! DADDY! DON'T LEAVE ME! DADDY!"

It was difficult to restrain the boy, but I managed.
