Their Moon

Chapter- 19 Creep?!

During the dinner Moon and Dante sat face to face and there were shooting daggers in each other's heads.

Salvatore sighed "Guys, that's enough."

He was in another room when the commotion was happening but when he came out he was told by the others what happened earlier.

"Let's try to be civil and not kill each other with out minds, okay?" Salvatore said as they continued to eat

Both of Dante and Moon felt good after having dinner and they were no longer irritated and angry at each other.

MOON'S POV

Damn maybe it was wrong of me to came across as someone that rude. I think it had more to do with me being hungry.

Okay Moon, don't act like a brat and apologize

"So, what is it that you do" I asked looking up from my now empty plate. I mean I asked him a question that should count as an apology

I can say he was taken back with my change in tone

"I run multiple animal shelters" Damn! Even he didn't found as angry as earlier. That's good. Maybe he too was just hungry.

Animal shelters wow that's amazing I mean I have always liked animals and someone's out there doing something for them made me happy.

"Oh lord! That's amazing." My brothers were shocked with a sudden change in out behaviors but I had a feeling that Dante want holding it against me and so it was okay.

All of us chatted a little more.

Luca was getting up with his plate and he offered to do the dishes. I then excused my self to go to my room.

I sighed and then fell face flat on my bed

"I wanna go home"

I felt homesick. I wanted to go back to the place where my stuff was. I can't live in a place for a longer time knowing this is not where I'll be living for a longer time it always irked me. This feeling, an unexplainable one.

Atleast pretend to be thankful for all that they are doing

But I am thankful

Do it

There is not reason to do something stupid

Stupid? You are the one who has been bothering everyone and now being selfish too. Hurt yourself. You deserve it.

"No, I don't. I don't. I don't"

Pick it up

I don't have anything on me right now

Look for something

I don't want to

DO IT!

Before I couldn't argue back there was a knock on my door. I didn't realize that it was almost midnight.

"Come in" I said and then I door ooeneramd Xavier entered the room.

I pushed myself in a sitting position, though doing that took a lot of my energy. Speaking of energy why do I feel so low and tired all the time?

"How are you doing" he asked. I know he was referring to what happened back on the car

"I'm fine" I replied not wanting to dive deeper into it. But I'll admit that I'm glad that he came.

Pathetic always leeching of people

"Moon" he walked closer to me. Crouched to my level. He looked deep into my eyes held me by my arms gently "Talk to me"

Talk to me. Talk to me. Talk to me. The words kept on ringing in my ears.

Stop burdening him. He's just trying to be nice. Deal with your problems. What is wrong with you.

XAVIER'S POV

I know I need to talk to her. I can't let her be on her own. Her thoughts might get loud and what not.

I don't care if I can't help her or not but I'm going to be there for her

Everyone went to their rooms and I came to Moon's to know how she holding up but the moment I entered her room and I saw her I knew something was wrong

She looked all tired and low and he face that usually didn't show any emotion was full of unexplainable feelings.

I asked her how she's doing and as usual she replied in a few words. I want her to talk. I need her to talk. She can't let all this bottled up.

I don't care of I get slapped in the face today. I walked towards her crouched t her level since she was sitting in the bed and I help her arms and asked get to talk to me in the hope that maybe, just maybe she'll tell me something.

As soon as the words "talk to me" left my mouth she sat there with eyes on the bed, head held low

I sat on the bed in front of her and shook her a little

"Moon" I called only to have no response from her

I shoo0k her again, this time she lifted her head, she looked terrified. What happened

"Hey, hey what's wrong talk to me" I asked her again

She said nothing and came closer to be and hugged me. Her head was on my chest and my arms immediately went to cover her face. I wanted to shield her from all the miseries and the pain

She was shaking. I. Tightened my hold on her

"Xavier, I'm scared" she spoke, she expressed for the first time in months.

"What are you scared of, kid?" I asked. She started shaking more and I only held her tight

When I got no response from her I asked again "Moon, what are you so scared of"

And the next words she spoke made me pull her closer to me in the hope of shielding her from her

"Me, I'm scared of myself"
