When we arrive at the police station, the captain calls me in his office. He seems really tired.
I walk towards his office and Connor follows me close behind. He didn't talk to me at all in the car. He didn't take my hand anymore. He just stood there, empty. I can feel my heart sinking when I look at him. I need the other Connor back. The Connor I fell in love with.
When I close the door behind us, the captain starts screaming at me.
'You kissed the machine in front of the Feds? What the actual fuck, Y/n? How are they supposed to trust us with any deviant related mission when our best detective makes out with an android in public?'
'Cap, I-'
I want to say that it shouldn't have happened, that it was a mistake, but I can't. I don't regret it. Connor was having a breakdown, he was suffering. I couldn't bare to see him like that.
'It won't happen again, Captain' Connor answers.
I turn around to look at him, but his eyes are watching only the captain. My heart breaks, but I take a deep breath and look back at my superior.
'It won't happen again indeed, because you both are off the case. The FBI is taking over. It's not our bussiness anymore'
'What?! No way! We have a lead, we can solve the case, Captain, please' I desperatly beg him.
'Y/n, I'm sorry. I really am. But this is a civil war. We can't manage this, but the FBI can. This is official. You're off the case and the android is going back to CyberLife' he continues.
'No... This can't be happening. They'll destroy him!'
The Captain looks really confused. He puts his hand on my shoulder.
'This is up to CyberLife. The android isn't our property, Y/n. Anyway, I thought you couldn't stand them. What is happening to you, Anderson?'
Tears start running down my cheeks, but I don't let the Captain see them. "You're not weak, Y/n" I encourage myself.
'Nothing, I'm fine. Thank you, Captain' I say, while walking out of his office.
I sit on my chair and Connor sits on my desk. He looks at me, but he doesn't seem to mind any of it.
'We can't stop here. We can catch them, Y/n. We can end this once and for all' he says.
'And then what happens, Connor? You still go back to CyberLife and they still destroy you, so they can make a better prototype. Am I right? And we also eradicate a whole new innocent race. We are on the wrong side, Connor. I know you know it'
'We are on the right side. Deviants are only androids that have malfunctions. They are not humans, they don't feel anything. They need to be stopped'
I feel like I'm about to start crying again. I can't believe what I hear. What happened to him?
'Connor, are you telling me that you didn't feel ANYTHING when that deviant killed himself in front of you? When we hugged? When YOU kissed ME? Connor, I know you can feel so many things, and I understand that you are scared and that you were told that you are incapable of feeling any emotions, but they lied to you. You are not just a machine. And those deviants are not just machines either. You are not slaves. You are alive. Connor, please!'
He looks at me and I can finally see a little spark in his eyes. He knows I'm right, but there is something wrong with him. Maybe someone is forcing him to be just a machine. Someone from CyberLife who noticed he was starting to 'break'.
'My mission is to stop the deviants and only the mission matters. After that, I will do whatever CyberLife says, because I belong to them' Connor says, but I can hear his voice shaking.
I get up and stand in front of him, holding his face.
'Connor, you do not belong to anyone. You don't have to go back to them. We could lay low until this stops. They won't find you. I promise I won't leave you alone, I won't abandon you'
I can see a little smile on his lips, but when he is about to agree, something happens. He moves away from me, pushing me further. He seems to be in pain again. Someone is clearly controlling him.
'If you won't help me finish this mission, I'll do it on my own' Connor says, while walking to the door.
I can't move, I'm shocked and scared. I can't lose him.
'Connor, please, fight it. Fight them. You know you're alive and you know they are wrong. Please, come with me'
He doesn't stop walking and I panic. I'm shaking and crying.
'Please, don't leave me. Connor, I need you, please. I- I think I love you!' I shout.
Connor stops. I hear him talking to someone, telling them that he is done. He rips the blue circle off his temple and crushes it in his hand, then he turns around and I can see tears in his eyes. Is he back?
He comes to me, but doesn't touch me. He looks scared, like he doesn't know what to do. I touch his cheeks and wipe his tears away, then I kiss him, passionately. I didn't lose him. He's here, with me, and I won't let him go.
He kisses me too, grabbing my hips and pulling me closer to him.
'I think I love you too, Y/n' he tells me between kisses.
Outside a whole war is taking place, but now that I know I have Connor here with me, I'm not scared and lonely anymore. We will get through this together.- 3 months later -
The war is finally over. CyberLife is gone. After protesting quietly and peacefully, Markus and his people gained the populations' sympathy. Connor and I also managed to convince a lot of police officers and even the captain to protect the deviants and fight for their rights. In the end, the army and the gouverment were forced to stop any kind of violent movements against the deviants and to also close down CyberLife.
All the deviants are now free. They can live in peace, alongside humans.
Connor and I moved together. We're still working on his emotions, as he still can't fully understand them. He is now officially and permanently working as my partner, so we spend all our time together.
We got ourselves a dog, because we found out that Connor actually loves dogs. I love seeing him play with Sumo, our dog. He looks like a little kid.
With time I realized that I love Connor deeply and that I cannot imagine life without him, now that he is in my life. He brings color in anything, he makes me happy, he protects me, but also trusts me. And I'm sure he loves me too, because he tells me so every two hours. After my father died, I never thought I would feel any kind of happiness, but now that I have Connor next to me, I couldn't be happier. (END)
