"I guess Whitely works as a concealer for your birthmark, very interesting indeed. This is highly confidential information... I must depart to tell the Queen about it..." May said.
"My mother...? Why her? My mother is no scientist." I asked.
"She is not, but the Queen is one of the Evermoon guardians. I must inform her about anything related to the Evermoon blood."
"Oh right, I forgot my mom is a guardian."
"Yep, yep. I'll have to report it so I'm leaving tomorrow."
"B-But what about my trouble with..." I looked around to make sure no one is listening then I whispered. "My Theo?"
"If you face any problems use this..." May handed me a small blue box.
"What is this?"
"A taser, I invented it by accident while trying to create an enhancer."
"A taser...?"
"You press the box then throw it on Theo, two electrical cords will jump out and stun Theo, don't worry it won't kill him, but it'll leave horrible side effects if used frequently." Oh no, I don't want to hurt the love of my life, I will only use it when the 'other' Theo emerges!
"Thank you, May."
"No problem, now rest, goodnight."
We went to our separate rooms, it was the first night in a while that I spent the night by myself. I am so used to Theodore cuddling me in his sleep that I feel oddly cold even though the blanket is warm and the room temperature is cool.
"Theo... I miss you." I felt hot tears stream down, I cover my mouth to muffle my sobs.

The next day...
I woke up feeling tired, maybe it's because I cried myself to sleep or the fact that I was not by Theo's side. It was already past eleven in the morning and I heard sounds outside. I left the room to see May packing her bags.
"Good morning Noah." May greeted me.
"Morning May, where are you going?" I asked.
"The capital, didn't I already tell you?"
"Oh! Right, I forgot, why aren't you letting the maids pack your stuff?"
"They're busy, besides, I don't like anyone touching my stuff."
"Alright, have a nice trip."
"Thanks, I'll bring you and Theo souvenirs when I get back, I don't know how long it'll take for me to get back, but I will contact you once I reach the Royal Palace."
"May Amaterasu watch over you."
"May Amaterasu protects you."
The moment I left the tower I was greeted by a bouquet of the lily-of-the-valley. They're my favorite type of flowers! I looked up to see my love who was holding them and he gave me his sad puppy face. "Th-Theo?!" I called out to him.
"My love, I'm sorry, I was so, so lonely without you yesterday! The bed was big and cold, I missed so, so much! Are you upset because I did not protect you despite being close by?" Theodore asked.
"O-Of course I am not mad at you!"
"Do you hate me...?"
"Aww... My love!" I took the bouquet and pulled him close to my arms cradling his head. "There is nothing you would do that would make me hate you, I love you so, so much, and to be honest, I really missed you too."
"My Noah! I love you too!" Theodore leaned in and I eagerly kissed him.
"God, stop flirting in front of my tower, if you wanna fuck around go somewhere else, lovebugs!" Suddenly May interrupted us. Oh my God, I completely forgot we were in the front door of May's tower.
"What's up with all this luggage? Did you destroy another project and the tower is contaminated again?" Theodore asked.
"Again...?" I asked confused.
"You see May does all kinds of weird experiments, one time she set her whole lab on fire, one time she created a toxic gas that will make you hallucinate funny things, and--"
"Oh my God, shut up! Those are rare occasions! Rare. Occasions. Don't make it sound like I do them all the time!" May shouted then punched Theo's arm. "Rude! I am packing because I have something urgent I must report personally!"
"Oooh! What is it?"
"Confidential."
"Alright..."
"I'll be back before you know it."
"Have a safe trip, May Amaterasu watch over you."
"May Amaterasu protects you."
We parted ways, Theodore hugged me from behind and nuzzled his nose on my nape. "I like your scent honey, it was only for one night, but I missed it." Yeah... This is my husband, the other person who pushed me is someone else.

Later that day...
I can't breathe, my neck is being squeezed by none other than the other 'Theo' "Ugh... Th-Theo... S-Stop...!" I pleaded.
"Stop...? And why should I? That sappy little shit is so sweet to you, but I... I will get rid of you before you end me." 'Theodore' said.
"Wh-Who... A-Are... You...?" I barely squeezed the words out.
"Aiden... For the sake of our history, I will remind you of my name, Moon-child, goodbye." Aiden squeezed tighter and I can feel light-headed.
