1.20 Tears on Privileged Pillows

Luna glanced up from her computer at the sound of a knock on her door.

"Come in."

Rey and Micah entered, and Luna wasn't surprised. Throughout dinner, they'd tried to assure her of their love, insisting it matched their affection for Aries. However, now that Luna's eyes were open, their words held little sway.

Taking seats on the bed, they faced her. Impatiently, she inquired, "What do you want?"

Rey spoke, "Sweetie, we don't want you to think that we love you less than Aries."

Luna chuckled, "You realize this is the first time you've ever called me sweetie. It was usually reserved for Aries."

A sense of discomfort settled over Rey. Micah added, "Just because we paid a little more attention to Aries as the youngest doesn't mean we love you any less."
