"Damn, you're really cute when you're sleeping"
That's what Zhongli heard as soon as he opened his eyes and saw Childe in front of him. The brunette got startled, quickly grabbed a pillow and threw it directly at the ginger's face. Childe fell over and bumped his head to the wall. "Owww... what was that for?.." spoke he while rubbing his head.
"Wh- What do you mean what was that for?! How did you get in here?"
"Hey, calm down.. I mean no harm" Childe stood up and fixed his hairstyle. "I just wanted to.. check up on you. And, your door was unlocked".
"Oh, my door... my door?! Ah, damn it, that could of went horribly wrong..."
Then it turned quiet for a bit. Zhongli was in deep thought for a bit, until Childe spoke up.
"Hey, uh, I'm... sorry for, um, you know, kissing you yesterday. I just sort of.. couldn't control myself, haha, *mumbling: you're so hot after all...*"
"What did you say?" - Zhongli asked him confused.
"A-ah! Nothing! Don't worry about it, haha. Anyways, are you okay? Your hands are scarred. What happened?" Childe took one of the brunette's arms and gently kissed it.
...
Zhongli started to uncontrollably blush. He covered his face with his other hand.
"I'm f-fine. The cat did it, it's nothing serious."
"You... have a cat? Since when? I didn't see it yesterday-"
"Ah! Forget it!" The brunette took his arm back. "Did you need anything else? You can leave now." He stopped covering his face which was already free of blushing, and looked at Childe straight in the eye.
Childe smirked.
"Does this mean you forgive me?"
"Forgive you? For what?" spoke Zhongli.
"Like I said... for kissing you yesterday" As the ginger said that, he got close to Zhongli's face and glimpsed at his lips for a moment.
Zhongli got startled, and quickly shut off the close contact by putting his own hand on Childe's mouth, blocking him.
"Yeah, yeah, I forgive you... just, go already" The brunette blushed a bit.
"Yay! Great! Well then, see you later" the ginger winked and the room, as well as the house.
"Wait... see you later? ... Ah, I see..." Zhongli thought that and smiled a bit.
3rd person POV of Childe
The ginger walked a couple blocks away from the brunette's home, and when there was the point where you couldn't see the house anymore, Childe got into a car that was waiting for him in the street. The car was black and modern, very simplistic. When he just sat down and closed the car door, he let out a big sigh.
"Hard day, Ajax?" - said and giggled a blonde male looking person in the driver's seat.
"Yeah, something like that, and don't call me by my real name..." Childe relaxed his body in the back seat.
"Uuuuuuugh, he's so cute...."
"Haha, what the hell man? I most definitely don't want to hear about your love problems.
The blonde giggled.
"Yeah, whatever, let's just go to the base"
"Sure" agreed the blonde.
After some time, they arrived at the so called "base". It seemed like a normal building, although, a little abandoned looking and boring. Childe and the blonde walked into the building. Over there, was a security guard near the door, looking really buff, with weird, purple clothes...
"PASSWORD?" said the guard.
The blonde got startled for a bit. The guard's voice was quite deep and very loud.
"AH! Damn, I can never get used to this!" shouted the blonde.
The guard did not pay attention to the blonde, meanwhile the ginger had already told him the password. Tartaglia and the blonde finally walked in there. There were loads of people working near computers, loads of doors, with templates such as "Practice" or "Training" room.
This was called a Fatui base. It is a largely known snezhnayan organization, that participates in illegal events. However, the government is unable to catch them, since they change their members and bases locations almost every week or so. In general, they're complete professionals in what they do, and no one has beaten them till this day.
"So, what are the plans for today, comrade?" asked Childe.
"I get it, karma, but don't call me comrade. Anyways, we have a meeting with the harbingers in a couple of hours. It's about the recent incident that occurred some weeks ago. You know what I mean. We have to decide on who's going to take her spot now" explained the blonde.
"I see, well, thanks for driving me here. I'll see you later, at the meeting. I have some work to do" said the ginger.
"Yeah, just don't be late!" shouted the blonde.
"Alright, 'boss' Aether!" Childe shouted back.
