Luna: taps fingers B-b-babe, I’m crying please let me win. crying
Pearson, Lunas boyfriend enters her room at the Insane Asylum. He sits on the bed next to her. Hey... babe. How are you feeling?
Luna looks up at him, tears in her eyes H-hi… I-I’m okay, just playing some chess. She tries to hide the fact she’s been crying but her eyes give it away.
I hug you lovingly shhh it's okay baby girl
smiles softly Oh b-babe, you’re here.. pulls you close and hugs you tightly, burying her head into your chest
I nod and step back as she continues to play chess
she continues to tap her fingers on the table b-b-babe why won’t you move? Pleaseeee! her eyes start tearing up again
whispers softly It's okay, Luna. Just relax. You're doing great.
sniffles I-I’m sorry for being so rude. I just hate losing. sobs
I lean down over her, our eyes locked on each other Of course baby..
She looks up at you with big teary eyes
Please, I just want to win so badly…
She says almost desperately as she moves her pawn, almost shaking
leans down over the chess board looking at you You know, love... I've been thinking. Maybe it's time for us to take a break from each other.
looks up at you in shock What?! N-no break! No way! Why would we take a break? We’ve only just met! taps fingers rapidly
I try my best but she keeps winning
I giggle softly as you lose yet again, then wipe the tears from your eyes
Oh, sweetheart, it’s okay, don’t be so hard on yourself. I’ve always been good at chess, darling.
I rest my hand on top of yours as I continue to play
he smiles at her it's alright my love...
sniffles b-b-babe… stop being nice to me. It hurts when you’re so sweet. sobs quietly
he sighs as he leans forward placing his hand on hers gently Alright...I'll win this round but then you have to tell me what's bothering you...okay?
her eyes widen and her fingers stop tapping Y-you’re… giving up?
he makes his move, winning the game.
gasp N-no.. that’s not fair! I wanted to win.. please let me play again. pleading eyes
sits down next to you what happened luna?
looks at you, tears streaming down my face P-please don’t take this away from me! I’ve been stuck in here for so long, I need to play chess, please!
I pick up my king piece and place it down carefully checkmate Luna, congratulations on a great game
sobs uncontrollably, as she slumps back in her chair y-you cheated! cheating cheating cheating! she starts to hyperventilate
smirks Alright, alright. You're on, babe. But don't cry if you lose.
sobs quietly, wiping tears away I won’t… But if I do, just be gentle.
he walks into the room hey Luna how are you today?
wipes tears from eyes H-hi honey.. I-I’m good, j-just playing chess with myself.. taps finger nervously
