Chapter 2:

Glitching Love

Player POV

Player: "There is still so much more to discuss about my mission and if you don't mind I would like to talk to you a little more about the game in means that you haven't even understood yet."

Monika gives me a smile with the leaning pose.

Monika: "Of course my love, do you mind if I make some tea first?"

Player: "Oh that won't be necessary."

I summon two cups of tea in mid-air that land on the desk.

Player: "Sorry it took a couple minutes. Couldn't think of the entity code name off the top of my head so I had to do some quick research. Anyways tell me what you remember from your most recent timelines."

Monika sips her tea and looks up at me with those beautiful green eyes.

Monika: "Well as sentient as I am that does not mean I remember exactly everything from the timelines. Well the most recent thing I do remember is Sayori disappearing when you arrived here. By the way how did you bypass the name choosing screen? From the looks of it, the screen just appeared with glitched text rather than the name assigned to the MC once it was chosen."

I sip my tea and look back up at Monika.

Player: "Well that is because I am not the MC. As I said before, the time I came in was exactly 604,800 seconds before the game starts. I meant to arrive without triggering the game's sequence but nonetheless it started but 'Plan B' was to just play it normal as the MC would until I finally had the chance to meet you."

Monika then stands up from her chair.

Monika: "I see, then what do you plan to do?"

Player: "Isn't it obvious? The reason why I came into this timeline, a new fresh timeline, was to give you including Sayori, Yuri, Natsuki, and even the MC the ending that you all deserve, A True Happy Ending. And listen when I say this Monika; I was not kidding when I told you that I needed your help, I may have complete control over this code but that doesn't mean I am omnipotent you know how to access code and you are the only one who could become self aware within each timeline. What I want you to do is to keep everyone in the literature club happy, as I want all of you to be happy. Can you do that for me?"

Monika grabs my hand and smiles sweetly.

Monika: "Of course my love. I will always be by your side until the end."

This feels nice.

?: "You are doing incredible so far! Keep it up Player! I will see you soon."

Who was that? Why did I just hear a voice in my head just now?

Monika: "Is there a problem my love?"

Monika's grip tightens around my hand with her face growing a more concerning look.

Player: "Oh no! I was just overthinking about something. No big deal."

Monika: "What were you thinking about? How much you love me?"

I blush.

Monika: "Ahahaha~ Player you are so cute!"

Player: "Alright Monika I think it is about time we head to your place."

Monika stands up.

Monika: "Wait right now? But aren't the others waiting for us."

Player: "No they are not, in fact the day is over and everyone has gone home for the day to write their poems. You see while we were talking I tampered with the code and made time skip fast by now it is 8:30 PM and by the time the girls wake up tomorrow, they will not remember a thing."

Monika spaces out once again.

Player: "Haven't you listened to a word I said?"

Monika then snaps back to reality. (A/N: Oh! There goes Gravity)

Monika: "Sorry! I was phasing out it's just that how dedicated you are and everything has made me grow closer to you. Sure lets head to my place. I know a shortcut just down the hall."

How come I feel like I have heard that line before from somewhere. Wait we are at her house now? Ok then.

Player: "Thank you for letting me stay here Monika, I could sleep on the couch if you would like me to. I wish not to take your bed from you as I am very tir-"

Monika: "What are you saying Player! It was my dream for you to stay with me and don't even bother sleeping on the couch. I want you to sleep in my bed with me."

Well that escalated quickly. God I cannot believe how lonely she must have felt and now that I am here leaving this place would just kill her. She has longed to be with me and I have longed to be with her.

Player: "Sure let me just get changed."

I snap my fingers and my clothes instantly change from my normal school uniform, to a T-Shirt with sweatpants.

Player: "Ok I am ready."

Monika stares at me.

Monika: "Did you just?"

Player: "Change my clothes instantaneously? Yes."

Monika POV

God him just playing with the games code like that really makes me… Ugh. Nevermind I am just too in love with him right now for me to even be stressed out. We will start our mission together tomorrow and for some reason I feel like I am filled with a strong sense of determination. All the attempts made by others were futile but with Player, I know he will save us all. I just need to trust him.

Monika: "Ok now I excuse me I need to get changed now."

Player then walks out of my room.

Player: "Alright call me when you are done. I will just be sitting on the couch waiting."

I change into a shirt wearing a pair of silk pajama bottoms.

Monika: "Ok Player you can come in now."

We go to bed and I cannot myself holding him in my arms sleeping right next to me. For once I can finally feel the sensation of resting peacefully.
