#x 02

♡┆ just X-02' yearning

Just imagine X-02.

He had been created with one and only objective, destroying each thing that their creators deemed as dangerous for their project.

So why did they even gave him the capacity of feeling? The capability of feeling how his chest started to hurt, the pressure becoming almost too much to bear as he noticed how your memory had been once again erased after the last mission.

Still, he tried. Time and time again, holding your hands softly as he spoke about the different memories he still had of the two of you together, even that time he had been able to take you away from the laboratory for a very short period of time. The way he had shown you the infinite sky full of stars, how he promised to create a paradise in which you two could have been in peace... Hiding his expression as he showed it to you, eyes interlocked just like they were the first time he took you there. He had been there so many times, yet he couldn't help but fall in love even more deeply as he saw the stars shine in your eyes as you looked at them.

He knew your time together was coming, after all, they had suddenly allowed you two to spend a bit more time together. The two of you were currently charging in the same pod, both of your bodies brushing due to the small size of it. He kept looking at you, his purple orbs locked into your face, even if your eyes were simply looking at the wall behind him. Just then, your hands moved towards his, wrapping your hands together. And for a moment, X-02' nucleus almost exploded, the rhythm of it raising at the hope of you finally remembering him. You smiled softly, just like you used to do when the two of you were younger, when you still had your mind mostly fine. Yet you stood like that, hands interlocked, eyes locked into one another, but none of you dared to take the next step, the sound of the few droplets that fell from his hair echoing around the room.

He could feel his nucleus falling apart. He had exceeded his limits, thus breaking all the mechanism that was keeping himself alive. Yet he could only think of only one thing. Running away from you, getting as far away as possible, just so he could try to reduce the damage done to you as much as possible. He could be destroyed, but maybe you had a chance, a possibility of being fixed so you could keep living even if he was no longer there, maybe the scientists would not give up on you. But just as he could feel his whole body about to burst, he opened his eyes one last time, seeing you throw yourself towards him, even as he moved his arms, trying to warn you about what was about to happen to him, pleading with his gaze to simply let him go, he had fulfilled his task of protecting you as much as possible, he was content with that. Regardless of that, you kept getting closer, finally embracing him, both of your nucleus pressing and echoing in the bast space, almost as if the two of them had been a single one who knows how much time ago. You moved your hand towards the button that removed his eye-cover, petting his cheek and moving your face forward, kissing him on the lips just as you had seen described on one of the many books that were laying around his room. Caleb smiled one last time, embracing you as he corresponded your one and only kiss.

Next time, next time he would succeed on his task.

a/n: heavily inspired on karma from alien stage, I just can't help but love Mizi's monologue... It was so so good that it low-key makes me cry... Heavily relied on my own imagination cause I haven't read x-02 cause I don't have it and I want to wait till I have him...

"Then it's a promise.

In life...

and in death...

We will never be apart."
