Taking care of Gregory

Michael called the next day, telling us that he had finished with the ID for everyone. Just in time, since new years is just around the corner. And also a good timing, because I can get away from the kisses of Sun and Moon. Maybe it's only my imagination, but I think they kiss me more than they did back in the daycare. I couldn't get away from all those head kisses last night and this morning. They don't even want to let me go.
„Can't you stay longer?"
„Just a tiny whiny bitty longer??"
„I'm sure the others want to live their own life's that we promised them!"
„But you will go to your brother tomorrow and we won't see you for a while..."
„Michael will only give me the ID and the location of where they will live from now on. Don't worry."

Luckily, the others seemed to notice that Sun and Moon are really stubborn and hold them off for me. Well- Bonnie and Monty did. Those two are the only ones who have something against them or hold a little grudge. I thanked them and walked quickly to Michael. The weather was clear and even though it's winter, I'm feeling warm inside me. Maybe spring is sooner here as anticipated. I knocked on the shack from Michael and the door was opening immediately by Ennard.
„We called you half an hour ago."
„You try to stop Michael from overworking and than you can blame me for being late."
„What does Michaels stupidity has anything to do with that?"
„Because it's impossible to stop Sun and Moon from their grip around me."

He rolled his eyes, but couldn't say anything, since he also can't stop Michael from working. I had hoped that the quiet time would boost their friendship, but everything stayed the same as it seems. I walked inside, hearing Michael in the kitchen mumbling to himself. I looked back to Ennard who just shrugged it off.
„He has been like that since he finished those ID things."
„Why though?"
„Maybe to much stress with that kid, maybe the sleep deprivation is kicking him into the grave."
„Since you don't seem worried, I'm sure it's not that serious."
„Y/N! You're already here?"
I walked to Michael and laughed a little.

„You can't really say that I was punctual, so sorry for the wait."
„Oh no, it's nothing! I was so lost in my thoughts that it felt like it were only a few seconds since I called."
„I thought you wouldn't have to much stress anymore?"
„Well...it's not stress, but more of a favor that I wanted to ask you."
„Sure! You helped me so many times, so I will help you as best as I can."
He laughed awkwardly and gave me the ID's for everyone, before turning to Gregory's room.
„Well- you see...how do I put this..."
„Can Eclipse stay here to entertain Gregory?"
„Ennard! That wasn't my question!"

A sense of guilt punched me right into the face. Eclipse. I forgot about him completely. Surely if he would be a nuisance, Michael would have called earlier so I can pick him up.
„You want to have someone who looks over Gregory so he can be protected or won't run away ."
„Yes but I won't ask Y/N to keep their friend stuck in here 24/7!"
„Oh no, you can keep him with Gregory if it's not bad. He must be lonely and needs company if he doesn't have any friends."
„I wanted to ask if you could watch over him at the weekends from time to time when I have to...collect a few things."
That doesn't sound legal to me. I would rather not ask what he means by that.

„I can do that, you just have to tell me when exactly!"
„U-uhm...today?"
And my word to Sun and Moon is now only dust and smoke.
„Sure, I don't mind. When will you be back?"
„Around midnight, at the very least tomorrow morning. I would also bring your friends to their apartment block."
„Are you sure? Isn't this to much of a burden?"
„Nah, I can do at least that much."
„You can still let us keep Eclipse right?"
„What did I just say-„
„Sure."
„You really don't have to do this. It was already wrong of me not to call you that we are thankful for the company, but letting him stay longer?"
