Proof

I gave Fialux a wide berth for the rest of that day into the next. Things got a little awkward after she realized she’d basically been crying on me for the better part of an hour.

I was pretty sure from the medical readouts I was looking at, from the way her heart rate fluctuated wildly and all her other stats were going a little wonky, that she was still having one hell of a cry in her room. I’d moved her back to the rustic cabin buried deep under Starlight City suburbia.

I figured the room had all the same safety features as the recovery room, so why not let her enjoy something that might calm her down?

It tore at my heart that I couldn’t go in there and do anything to help her, but I was going to give her the distance she needed. Even if I wasn’t sure whether or not distance was something she really needed, but she’d been pretty insistent about pushing me away.

But giving her that distance really sucked. I was supposed to be her girlfriend. I still felt like her girlfriend. I’d been her girlfriend that morning and nothing about my feelings had changed even if she couldn’t remember a damn thing.

I could still remember every amazing moment we’d had together, and it tore at my heart knowing she couldn’t remember any of it.

I sighed. Looked down at the cup of tea I’d brewed for myself in the lab breakfast nook. I was going to have to talk to her again, eventually, but it broke my heart every time I looked at her and I saw attraction there, but not the half cocked grin she gave me that said I was hers.

I took in a deep breath. Let out another sigh. I’d been able to stave off some of the loneliness of working in the lab all by my lonesome when I had Fialux around. I could always look forward to seeing her again and somehow knowing she’d always be there waiting for me made any project I was working on go by faster.

Maybe it was a little unhealthy that I was getting all of my social interaction from her, but it worked so why worry?

I was even more unhealthy about socializing before Fialux came along. Back when I’d been getting all of my social interaction from a megalomaniacal psychotic supercomputer who’d done his very best to kill me and take over the world.

Lucky for me that his very best turned out to not be all that good at all.

“Is something wrong?” a voice said from the entrance to the breakfast nook.

I looked up in surprise. Nobody was supposed to be able to make it this deep into my lab. If I heard someone then…

This time the sigh I let out was one of relief. It was none other than Selena standing there looking absolutely beautiful. She wore some pajama shorts and a tank top she’d brought over to the lab when it became apparent it would be easier for us to spend time here than at her apartment off campus.
