In Childe's POV:

"Mmm... soft and warm..." was all I mumbled out.

Whatever this was, it felt comforting. Almost like a pillow. The surface was squishy for the most part, but a part of it felt colder and hard. Mm, and whatever I was tasting tasted a bit bland, but smelled familiar. One thing was for sure— it was hot. Could it have been firewater? No, the drink tasted a bit more on the spicy side rather than just hot.

I eventually woke up from the sounds emitting from in front of me somewhere. When I did open my eyes though, all I saw was a flustered (Y/n) lying across from me. The shirt I had lended her was now barely covering her under the shoulders.

Had I...?

"A-Ajax..." squeaked out my childhood friend, her face was as red as a tomato. "What's gotten into you...?"

When I had realized where my hand was still, my eyes went wide and my cheeks went red from embarrassment.

"A-ah! Sorry, (Y/n)! I didn't... I wasn't aware that..." I yelped, retracting my hand from her breast.

"It would've been fine if..."

"If...?"

"If you asked first... It's not like you haven't... with my... you know... before..."

My mind then went back to a few days back when we were at my kitchen counter. With her shirt and bra basically just moved out of the way to make room for me to massage them, we were just enjoying one another's company and making out. If no one had known otherwise, we would've just looked like any other horny college couple.

"You wouldn't have...?"

She shook her said as she then said, "Of course not. I trust you completely, at this point, Ajax. I've known you since freshmen year of high school."

"You... trust me?"

"Without a doubt. Even if you are a Fatui bitch," she chuckled out.

Hearing her say those words out loud to me, I felt a stirring my chest and a churning in my stomach. I could feel some tears threatening to spill out of my eyes. It had felt like ages since the last time someone had told me that they had trusted me. I felt loved for once in my life. I then hugged her tightly, digging my head into her shoulder for a bit before she spoke up once again.

"Ajax...? Are you alright?" she asked me, as she turned around in bed, wiping a tear that had escaped my right eye.

"(Y/n)..."

"Yes?"

"Do you... can we... fuck?" I asked her, finally breaking out of my trance and right into her adoring, (e/c) eyes that I longed to drown in.

"W-what!?"

"You heard me. Do you wanna fuck me?"

"R-right now? I- it's like 7 in the morning!"

"That doesn't answer my question, girlie."

"Ajax, I..."

"We don't have to if you don't want to. I will never pressure you into doing things you don't feel like doing."

"It's not that, Ajax... I do, but..."

"Hey, it's okay if you're scared. These sorts things aren't easy. We can take it slow and at our own pace together," I whispered in her ear, entangling our hands together.
