Why an android? /Reed900/

Sorting out problems (Chapter ten)

(Warning
Mentions abusive and some self harm)

It had been a hour and 20 minutes since all that happened. Hank, Connor, Gavin and Conan were trying to question the deviant that was called Ethan. Conan saw Gavin go in to question the deviant. He already knew this was going to go down hill.

Gavin was being hash, the man started yelling at the robot. He didn't get an reaction out of the android so Reed walked out pissed off. He walked back into the observation room. Gavin went to the corner of the room, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed.

"Well, what now?!" Hank said. Connor stood next to him looking at Ethan.

"That thing won't talk, make Conan talk to it."

"You remember that Conan is your android right?"

"Conan, go fucking talk to it!"

"Maybe I will."

"I bet it won't tell you shit." Gavin smirked.

"If your wrong then you have to let me spend your day off with you."

"Alright microwave." Gavin winked at Conan, being a prick. Conan smirked and winked back at him. Making Gavin get flustered before leaving the room. Going into the interaction room.

Conan entered. "Ethan?" The door closed behind Conan, the android peaked it's head up at Conan. "What?"

Conan went to sit down at the opposite side of the table. "You explained earlier that Laura Morris wouldn't leave you alone, what did she do?"

"She was abusive.."

"Why did she and the child have bruises on them then?"

"Karma?"

Conan nodded. "You have any proof that she did?"

The android pulled up it's sleeves, there were cigarette marks, old stab wounds and cuts.

Conan stared pretty disturbed. His LED flickered yellow.

"How long has this been going on?"

"Two years."

"What did the child do?"

"We..we were planning to leave with her until she copied the mom.."

Conan kept questioning Ethan. He got all the information he needed and left the room.

Hour and 13 minutes later.

Conan was sitting near Gavin's desk looking like he was spacing out. Gavin walked to Him.

"You ok?"

"Hm? Yes, why wouldn't I be?"

"Right..well come on."

"What?"

"We're going to my place."

Conan nodded. He got up and they headed to the car. They both got in, the whole car ride there was silent.

They both left the car and headed to the apartment. They both got in, Gavin first then Conan. "Yeah, I forgot to clean up."

The place was a mess, Conan didn't really mind.

"Wait, can you cl-"

"I'm not a house maid Gavin."

"Fucking dammit."

Another hour later.

Gavin and Conan were watching a movie, a kinda old movie. Face off. Even though Conan had never seen a movie before he was enjoying it and Pumpkin, Gavin's cat was laying between them sleeping. Gavin was watching Conan's reaction. Once the movie ended Conan looked over at Gavin smiling.

"That was a sweet ending."

Gavin shook his head looking away smirking. "Heh, yeah. Your fucking reaction at the start though. You looked like you were going to cry!" Gavin laughed.

"You're an asshole, but I prefer you this way."

"What the fuck does that mean?" Gavin was still smiling.

"You know, you being an angry asshole. Why are you angry all the time Gavin?"

Gavin's smile faded. "I guess someone has to know." He looked back at Conan.

"I wasn't always such an ass, or a prick. I was kinda nice? Until I met someone."

"Who?"

"Someone that would be my partner- not partner like we are but, dating thing."

"Oh..?" Conan nodded.

"And then ending up as my ex, thankfully."

"Why?"

"They were..." Gavin sighed. "They were violent."

"Abusive?" Conan's LED turned yellow.

"Yeah yeah and now I'm basically a full on prick because of him."

"It was a him?"

"Yes- what's wrong with being gay?"

"Nothing actually."

"Yeah, you're just saying that."

"No! I'm being honest!"

"Ugh." Gavin was getting up before getting grabbed by the arm. "Ow-"

"Gavin are you ok? I just grabbed you."

"I'm fine!" He yelled.

Conan pulled Gavin back down onto the couch and pushed him down. Getting on top on Gavin.

"C-Conan?! What the fuck?!"

Conan grabbed Gavin's arm and pulled his sleeve down. There were cuts on his arm. "Gavin..?"

Gavin got emotional. "Get the fuck off me!"

[ Software instability ^ ]

That was an order but Conan didn't want to follow it. For a couple of seconds Conan looked like he was spacing out emotionless. Gavin trying to get off him Conan finally came back to reality. Something had happened. There was a red wall blocking him? He knew what happened now HE had realised what happened.

"I'm so sorry.." Conan hugged Gavin softly.

Gavin got too emotional that he started crying, hugging back.

Conan knew how high his stress levels were so he tried to be careful with Gavin.

"Want me to wrap them up?"

"In a minute." Gavin kept hold of Conan, the android smiled a bit.

They kept hugging for about 3 minutes, definitely more longer than a minute.

"Ok, let me wrap you up." Conan picked Gavin up.

"I can walk y'know?"

"You wouldn't have let me go probably anyway."

"Asshole."

"Thank you."

Conan took Gavin to the bathroom, he was about to make Gavin sit on the edge of the bathtub before they both fell in, Conan on top of Gavin. They both got embarrassed and flustered. Conan got off of Gavin and pulled him back up. Going to get bandages and he he wrapped Gavin's arms up.

"There you go, you need to stop doing that ok?"

"Yeah yeah."

"Gavin, I mean it." Conan looked deeply into Gavin's eyes.

"Fine." Gavin sighed. "And I'll help you."  Conan smiled.

"Ok, fine.." Gavin agreed.

"And try to sort out your anger, don't drink too much coffee and-"

"Ok ok!" Gavin weakly smiled.

Conan smiled, he definitely knew that he was a deviant now but how was he going to tell Gavin? Conan was going to have to talk with Connor about this.
