This weird situation. Right now, Childe, holding Zhongli's chin, and just them both staring at each other for some time. The ginger's attention shifted towards the other's lips, then he kept getting closer, and, slowly but surely, he kissed Zhongli. Zhongli could of avoided the kiss, but he got lost in Childe's deep blue eyes. As he realized what was happening, the ginger already invaded his mouth. The brunette tried getting away, but the other's grip was too strong. That's why, he bit the ginger's lip and pushed him away.

"O-oh, sorry, I-" Childe got cut off while trying to explain:

"Who do you think you are to kiss me like that?!" Zhongli started yelling at Childe.
"I told you I wasn't in the mood..." The brunette sighed.
"Get out of here."

"But-" 
Before Childe could say anything, Zhongli grabbed the bag of bottles, forcefully pushed it towards the ginger and shoved him out the door. Childe was standing outside the door, facing it, completely shocked. The only thing he could think of at the moment was
"Damn, how is he so strong?"
He quickly shook those thoughts away and realized what he did. 
"Oh, man, I feel bad now... But, that..."

...

"Felt good..."

He looked down and covered his face with his hands, embarrassed that he thought that.
The ginger slowly started walking off the porch, blushing a lot, and very embarrassed. Yet, he walked away while swinging the bag around like a happy child.

3rd person POV of Zhongli

Zhongli threw himself on the couch. He started to blush uncontrollably, since he held back the blushing so much when Childe kissed him. "Gosh, what a jerk... I was worrying so much about my license, but he only decides to show up the next day..."  The poor guy sighed. He covered up his face with his hands and started staring at the license, quickly he zoned out. I wonder what was he thinking about.... 
Suddenly, weird noises started. It sounded like... scratching. It came from the outside door's direction. Zhongli snapped back into reality and walked to the door a little confused. After opening the door, he couldn't see anyone, until, he looked down. It was a.... cat. A black cat. Once the cat and Zhongli made eye contact, it started instantly meowing. It was messy and loud.
"I think... it's stray..." 

...

Zhongli quickly and carefully looked around.. then stared back at the cat for a bit..."Whatever.." He quickly took the cat into his arms and brought it inside. Actually, our dear Zhongli had a bit of a.. soft spot for cats. He had an old friend, with whom he hung out very often. Naturally, the brunette often visited the friend's home. His beloved old friend had a cat, and so on, Zhongli got greatly attached to it while visiting so often. That's how his love for cats started.
Back into the present, the cat was already in the bathtub. Zhongli totally knew how hard is it to bathe cats... But he seriously had no choice. It was too dirty to do all the work by itself with it's little tongue. 
"It is time for war", he thought.

After a long time of hard work, and no matter how hard he tried not to get hurt, his arms were all scarred by the nails of the cat, and his bathroom was flooded with water. It didn't go as planned, but, he did finish bathing the cat in the end. Suddenly, the cat ran out of the bathroom and jumped on the living's room couch to rest. But it was... still wet. "My poor couch.." he thought as cleaning up the bathroom. "It will leave a stain. What a rude and, mean cat..." But deep down, he actually couldn't stop adoring the cat.
 Zhongli yawned. It was really late, and he should of went to bed a long time ago. Although, since tomorrow was going to be Sunday, it didn't really matter.
After tidying up, the brunette barely managed to drag himself to bed. He fell asleep fully clothed, and even fell asleep with his glasses. Wow, it must of been a really hard day of work. I don't think anything can wake up this man at the moment. But, there's one little problem.

I don't think he locked the door.
