The Boy Savior - Ekko x Reader - Season 1

Chapter 22 - smut

An hour surely had passed since you two had been lying on his bed. You were facing him, your head resting on his chest as Ekko lied on his back and your arm hugged his torso - his arms were also both wrapped around your shoulders.

You told him what happened with your brother - it felt good to finally be able to talk to him. He didn't have much more ideas than you - he could only promise that he would help you get your brother back. He also made you promise that you wouldn't go to him alone another time...

While you listened to his heart, steadily beating inside his chest, you were sure that in other circumstances, it would have been the perfect lullaby for you. Especially since you felt so tired after everything that had happened today. But this time, you couldn't stop thinking about one thing. You were sure Ekko was still awake as well - his breathing hadn't changed at all while you were listening to it, so you just went ahead and called his name in the darkness.

"Ekko?" you asked and you weren't surprised at all when you heard him respond right away.

"Hmm?" he hummed. His voice resonated under your ears, inside his chest.

"Why didn't you want to have sex with me?" you asked simply and the boy immediately choked on his own saliva under you.

"What?" he coughed and you pushed yourself up onto your elbows to look into his eyes. There was no lamp lighting the room anymore but the moon and the firelights outside, peacefully flying by Ekko's window, gave you enough light to see his furrowed brows and slightly confused expression.

"An hour before..." you said. "You stopped before - anything - could have happened." your eyes now looked away from his. You were glad it was dark in your room as you felt your cheeks warming up. You were embarrassed for questioning him like this about a topic so sensitive but you were dying to know... After being kind of rejected two times in a row...

Ekko didn't answer right away. He was just searching your face for a while, chewing on his thoughts properly before speaking.

"Y/N." he said and his left hand gently reached under your chin to turn your face towards his. When you looked at him, he was smiling and it warmed up your insides right away. "Y/N, I think, you have no idea how... important you are to me. And this means, that I would never want to do anything to you, that would make you feel pushed or you wouldn't want. And you had already had enough for today anyway..."

What he said only cemented it inside you that you loved the boy by your side, but also made you want to smack him on the forehead.

"Did I seriously look like I was being pushed?" you asked as you sat up and Ekko followed you chuckling. The bed creaked a little under your weights shifting when he pulled you closer to him by your waist.

"Hey! Don't blame me for being a gentleman, okay?" he said playfully before kissing you, this time his tongue finding yours right away. He pulled you back to the bed and in one, smooth movement, he got above you - one of his hands holding his weight by your head while the other traced your side gently, his fingers wandering under your top by your waist.

His lips left your mouth to slowly wander towards your neck, leaving a trail of wet kisses along your jawline, and when he reached the most sensitive part, you couldn't help but let out a shaky mixture of a breath and a moan.

"What was that, huh?" the boy raised his head up to look at you with a quirky expression and you furrowed your brows.

"What was what?" you asked honestly. Your confusion probably was visible, because you could see Ekko's amusement in his eyes, as he looked down at you from his own height. "That sound you made when I was doing this..." he leaned back down to softly lick the skin on your neck, close to the back of your ear and damn, you could barely hold yourself together.
