Love

2B's POV

"Creed how are you feeling?" asked Devola

"Good, don't worry about me." replied Creed

"If you need anything let us know." said Popola

Devola and Popola leave the tent so it was just Creed and I in the tent.

"2B can I ask you something personal if you don't mind?" asked Creed

I nodded in response.

"So what's your relationship with 9S?" asked Creed

"Partner and a hearing friend." I replied

Creed observes me for a while before nodding.

"Then how come you like acted different with him?"

"Cause I wanted to hide it."

"Oh, your emotions." said Creed, "You focus on the mission a lot."

"Well, yes missions." I trailed off remembering everything that I've done to 9S.

"Is there something else?" I asked

I look around the tent and quickly check outside, just to make sure no one was around to listen.

"Pod, notify me when 9S is approaching." I ordered my Pod

"Affirmative." replied my Pod

I sat down next to Creed's bed. Creed leans over his bed and picks up his water bottle.

"Why being so secretive now?" asked Creed

"The truth is, I was created to kill 9S."

Creed spits out his water and starts coughing. I look at him in confusion to why he spit out his water.

"You were tasked to kill 9S?" Creed looks at me with shock look on his face

"Yes. My name 2B was a coverup, it's supposed to be type-E, I'm supposed to be 2E." I replied

"E? B mean battle, what does E mean?" asked Creed

"Execution."

Creed sighs and rubs his eyes.

"You were an executioner?" he asked

"We're a special type of androids that execute YoRHa androids if they discover anything. Then we erase their memories so causing them to forget what they were doing." I replied

"Discover what?" asked Creed but barely in a whisper

"The extinction of mankind."

Creed flinches from my reply and just looks away.

"But if you wiped his memories, there's a possibility he can learn again." said Creed

"Yes he did."

"So how many times have you, killed him?"

I didn't want to say it, I didn't want to hurt Creed in any way where I lose him but there's no point in hiding it.

"48 times." I replied

Creed leans back on the bed and lets out a long sigh.

"48 times." whispered Creed, "It was your mission wasn't it?"

"Yes, we were designed to do that." I replied

"Does he know?"

"A2 told him during a fight between them, since A2 had my memories because I was infected."

"You were infected? Like those YoRHa androids I bumped into?" he asked

"Yes I was, so I gave A2 my memories and my Pod. And killed me."

"And let me guess, you're Pods recreated you." said Creed

"Yes."

"Did you not feel bad for 9S?"

"I did, every time I killed him it pained me so much I just couldn't do it, but I had to."

I felt terrible, I wanted to cry so badly.

"How did 9S react?"

"He forgave me."

"9S is a strong kid, and I'm glad you told me this." said Creed, "Killing someone because of your mission doesn't determine who you are. If you did it without any sympathy then you'll truly be a terrible person but that's not the case."

He smiles and I nearly let my tears out but I was able to keep them in.

"9S is approaching the tent." warned my Pod

9S enters the tent in frustration and sits down on the other side of Creed.

"Creed I have a question." said 9S

"Yea what is it?"

"Who's Avery lover?" asked 9S

Creed looks dumbfounded for a second until he snaps his finger.

"I doubted that she loved him, but shit."

"What is it?" asked 9S

"His name was Gally Miller. He was like a kid very kind and respectful. Very moral, but he died because of me." sighed Creed

"It's not your fault you were following orders." I comforted

"But I didn't know who's order was priority." said Creed, "Anyways, what about him?"

"I asked her why she avoids me but then she loses it and said that I remind her of him."

Creed raises an eyebrow and inspects 9S' faces.

"9S do you mind taking off your visor?" asked Creed

"Sure."

9S takes off his visor and Creed looked like he was lost of words.

"Avery has good eyes, you do look like him." said Creed

"But how can I help with those memories?" asked 9S

"You can't, never possible to override a human memory. We can't have our memories erased. They can be forgotten but never erased." replied Creed

"Memories are very precious to us as androids because they could be erased." said 9S

Creed looks at me with an eyebrow raised and just shrugs.

"9S, if you're trying to like get rid of Avery's memory of Gally, that's a big no. That will make the situation worse." said Creed

"Then what should I do?" asked 9S

"Make memories with her so that she doesn't see you as Gally, but as 9S." said Creed

9S seemed to think about it and nodded.

"I'll give it a try." determinedly said 9S

Creed smiles and pats 9S' hair.

"I know you can do it."

"Thanks Creed! I'll do my best!" he exclaimed

He runs out of the tent excitedly leaving me and Creed alone.

"Nines is a good kid, I'm glad he was your partner though." said Creed

"Why?" I asked

"You guys make a good team." he replied

I nodded in response and smiled at him.

"Pod, how long until I can move around." asked Creed

"Minimum 1 week, advised not to do extensive procedures." said my Pod

"Got it." said Creed

Creed lifts up his shirt and looks at the band aid and sighs but I wasn't focusing on his wound, more of his abs that were very, attractive. I began caressing it and Creed let out a short sharp gasp.

"2B?"

"This is interesting." I said, "Is there more of these on your body?"

"No no no, it's just on my stomach." said Creed as he lowers his shirt down

I look at Creed and his face was red.

"I apologize if that made you uncomfortable." I apologized

"No no no, it's not your fault. It was just, well you're my first." confessed Creed

"First what?" I asked

"Lover." replied Creed

His face looks all embarrassed and I couldn't help but hug him again.

"So this is what love feels like." I whispered

"Does it feel weird?" asked Creed as he hugs me back

"No, it feels nice." I replied

I look at his face and I slowly lean in and press my lips against his. He doesn't retract or push me away, he pulls me in a bit more so I kiss him a bit more aggressively. His lip was very smooth and very soft, this feeling was amazing. After about a minute I pull away and Creed smiles and was all red.

"I love you." I whispered

Creed turns even more red but nods his head.

"I love you too." he whispered back
