A/N: Y/F/B = Your Favorite Book. Hope you enjoy <3

     Silver moonlight shined through my windows and I felt myself sigh. I couldn't sleep. I hadn't been able to for a few weeks. The past few nights I've had to keep finding quiet things to occupy me so I don't wake my dad or alert Markus. Markus was our android. He'd been the sweetest thing the world had to offer to me. He'd help me cook often. Taught me how to play the piano a bit. And he even watches me paint whenever I'm in the studio. He always does his best to make me feel better after a rough day. I had a little crush on the RK200, I'll admit. I knew it wasn't right. A human and an android? The world would never accept us. I wanted him so bad and no matter how much I try to convince myself he's alive, I have to always tell myself he's just an android. A machine. Who won't ever share the amount of love for me as I do for him. My thoughts always consisted of Markus. Whenever I was alone or with him, my mind would drift off. Like right now. Maybe that's why I could never sleep in the first place. Because I constantly laid awake restless with images of the android twirling around my mind. 

    I took my mind off of the handsome android for a minute and started to brainstorm what I should do to occupy myself. Playing the piano would wake up my dad, AND alert Markus. I can't play chess alone. Watching TV would be a bit too loud I think. I thought about the large bookcases lining the living room downstairs. I'd read a lot of them, but I'm sure I could find another one filled with a new story to keep me company tonight. I swung my legs over the edge of my bed and quietly crept towards my door, twisting the handle gently. 

    I turned the corner and strolled through the hallway. I reached the stairs and started to tiptoe down them carefully. I went into the living room and stood in front of one of the many bookcases. My eyes scanned over the different colored spines of the books. I smiled and grabbed Y/F/B; pulling it from the slightly dusty shelf. I spun around on my heel and took a seat on the couch; curling up on the edge. 

(Markus' POV)

  I sat upright in a chair right next to Carl's bedside. My eyes were glued to the floor when I heard Y/N's door open a few rooms away. I glanced back at Carl's peaceful state and then to the door. I tilted my head. I stood up from the wooden chair and quietly opened up the door. I stepped out into the hallway and walked down it. I stood over the railing and placed my hands on it; peering down to look at the living room. Y/N stood in front of a bookcase. I watched as he/she picked out a book and took a seat on the couch. I felt a small smile quirk at the corners of my lips as I watched him/her.

         I flipped the next page intently and read each word happily. I'd already read this book many times but I loved the story so much. "What are you reading?" A soft voice broke the silence from behind me. I jumped a bit and snapped my head towards the voice. Markus stood at the door frame that led into the living room. My fear stricken face was quickly replaced with a small smile. I didn't mean to make him aware of my presence down here this late, but I'm also happy he's here. "Y/F/B." I replied. Markus smiled back and walked closer; taking a seat on the couch next to me. He glanced down at my book. "You know, you shouldn't be up this late, Y/N." He said quietly. "I know.. I'm sorry if I disturbed you. It's just that I couldn't sleep.." I sighed. "Do you have trouble sleeping often?" He asked me. "These past few weeks, yes." I answered with truth. "I'll go make you something to help. Wait here." He said and stood; walking out of the living room. 

(Time skip about like five minutes) 

     I kept reading my book and got through a good few chapters. I heard footsteps and lifted my head up to see Markus entering the living room with a small mug in his hands. He sat himself beside me again and carefully extended his hands out to me. The mug had hot tea in it. There was a visible cloud of steam rising from it. I set my book down on my lap and reached my hands out; grabbing the tea from him. An inexorable smile crept it's way onto my face. I felt my fingers brush against his own as I took it from his grasp. I gaped down to the tea in my hands. "You made me tea?" I looked up at him warmly. "Tea has a very calming effect. It should help you sleep better." He smiled at me. "You didn't have to do that for me, Markus." I looked back up into his beautiful green eyes. "I wanted to." He replied gently. I brought the mug to my lips and sipped the warm liquid. It wasn't too sweet or too plain. "Thank you." I rested the mug on my lap; my hands still holding it. "You're welcome." Markus said delicately. "Come on. I'll take you to bed. It's not good for you to be up this late every night. You need sleep." He extended out his arm for me to take. I felt a flutter in my stomach and stood from the couch. I held my tea in one hand and used my other arm to loop through his. The close proximity made my heart race faster and my blood rushed to my face. I was almost sure my face was as hot as the tea. We walked steadily together back upstairs as I took small drinks of the tea. We walked towards my room and Markus pushed my door open. He then let my arm go and stepped off to the side for me to go in first. I held my nearly empty cup of tea as I climbed onto my bed. Markus walked into the room and grabbed my cup from my hands gently. "Sleep well, Y/N." He smiled and turned around to walk out. I didn't want him to leave and without thinking I shouted. "Wait!" I called. He turned to look at me curiously. I blushed and cursed myself for being so awkward. "I-I um..." I tried to think of an excuse for him to stay. "C-Can you stay with me?" I asked. I sounded so dumb. Markus thought for a moments and walked towards me; placing the mug on my side table. "Of course." His tone of voice was sweet and gentle. He sat on the side of my bed. "You can.. Lay in the bed. I-If you want..." I trailed off. What did I just say!? Markus did nothing but smile and lift the blankets up; climbing into the bed next to me. The pillows beneath us had been propped up so we were both sitting up a bit. I felt our shoulders touch.

   I gulped and took a deep breathe. I confidently turned on my other side and scooted even closer to him; carefully wrapping my arms around him. Markus did nothing and stayed in his position. I waited a moment but nothing happened. Just when I thought I messed something up and was about to pull away, he returned the gesture. I widened my eyes softly. He returned it. I could hear his artificial heart beating with my head against his chest like it was. I slowly rolled back onto my side a bit and Markus followed my actions. I stared back into his eyes. I nervously leaned forward and captured his lips in a kiss.

 deviant.

(Your POV) 

     Markus then kissed me back softly. Our lips moved in sync with passion. I felt my stomach erupt in pure bliss. I felt like crying and laughing at the same time.  All the love I felt for him was returned. He was a deviant. 

    We soon pulled away from the kiss and I gasped for air quietly. "What is this thing... That I feel?" Markus looked down in confusion then back up; meeting my eyes. "Is it a good feeling..? Do you feel n-nervous or unexplainably excited around me...?" I questioned him. He nodded carefully. "It's called love, Markus." I breathed out. "Love..." He murmured to himself. "And I love you too..." I confessed just above a whisper. His eyes met mine once more then he smiled widely. The bright moonlight still gleamed through the blinds of my window; lighting up Markus' face. For a second, as I observed his perfect features, I would've sworn he looked human. He unhesitantly pulled me closer into his arms; hugging me to his chest tightly. He kissed the top of my head gently. "Get some sleep now. I'll be here when you wake up." He mumbled into my ear. My eyes grew heavy and I began to drift off into the darkness. Sleep was going to be a lot easier if I had Markus this close to me every night.
