𝙁𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙙 - Akali x Male reader

Chapter 46

The following two days were nothing but an awkward mess - I did pay for the month already and Conrad is moving out to go live with Matty. He did say sorry at least ten times while we were busy packing my things.

Akali didn't seem too fazed by helping out, she felt that getting my things out and into our new temporary home that is probably going to be a more permanent one. Other than that? There isn't much worth noting.

We pretty much parted ways and I think it is for the best - Akali expressed that I use more online classes seeing as if I did online classes wouldn't change anything seeing as all my exams aren't being written in this city.

But just feels cowardly. Whatever. I will just go on with little worry. The break is going to start soon but I have no reason to show up for classes - not like I need extra credit. 

I am good at what I do.

But was I really going to throw a friendship away that was years and years of probably bringing me to this place? I won't ignore everything he did for me... but it doesn't mean I will ever excuse anyone from doing that to me.

I have been busy moving our room around, Akali already gave me a vague idea of what she'd like to see and I am free to mix my own touch to it while I am at it.

"Sweety?" she steps in as I lie down on the floor to figure out how I am going to wire everything, "Mind taking a little break?" I peek over to see her glistening, it has been pretty hot today.

"Sure," I roll out from underneath as she shoots her gaze around, "I like it so far," she interlaces her fingers with mine, "Would you mind setting up my stuff later in the office room?" she asks.

I glance at the door in our room leading to the room in question, "Sure, I just need to look at the space, and then I will figure it out."

She nods, "We have space for a TV in the room and we can keep your PC in that corner and get some blinds maybe?"

"Blinds?"

"For like when you desperately need to play games and won't listen to me when I try to trick you into getting into bed with me," she winks before starting to walk towards the door.

"I am going to be honest, it doesn't take much to convince me."

"I know~"

She shows me around but a lot of the furniture is out of place, there are a lot of things that I owned and that she owned we needed to put in the cupboards. She did live in her own apartment and a lot of the things from her past are still in the storage unit and she wanted to fetch them.

Also, saw a hint of her past and that she came from a group of assassins... or was it ninjas?

I swear I read something like that once - My cute ripped girlfriend is a cold-blooded assassin. This just feels like I'd be treated like a baby bird if anything. Maybe that is exactly what this is... I glance at her as she notices my furrowed brow.

"Something wrong?"

I shake my head, "Nope," Nah can't be, she is too busy with Ahri running her energy into the ground.

We sit down in the kitchen, the only place that hasn't been touched, "Listen, I have to run in an hour to go to work - you don't have to do everything. Okay?"

I nod, "It's fine. I can keep myself busy... this place doesn't have internet either way and the internet guys are coming to install it soon so rather not them freaking the fuck out and focusing more on Akali than their job."

She kisses my cheek, "Being a celeb sucks!"

"It does," I sigh, "It is incredibly hard to plan a date night and such without having you dress like you are afraid of germs - going out just to be bothered by everyone around us and ruin the mood completely."

She giggles, "A lot of people do show some privacy, so don't worry so much, okay?"

I nod, "Alright."

"But... who called you? You said you were going to have to talk to me about something?" she cocks her head to the side, pushing her lips out sucking in the air, and making a squeaking sound.

"Ah," I chuckle awkwardly, "My family asked to visit and I wanted to just warn you about it first-"

"Oh no..." she purses her lips, "This is like the thing where if they don't like me they are going to make your life hell, and then we won't ever be able to be happy because they are just going to hold my existence over your head and you are going to have to choose between me and-"

I grab her hands, "My family is super friendly, you will be fine... I think they will be happier to see I have a relationship and that I am not single."

She nods, "If the worst happens we can just bribe them with money."

I narrow my gaze at her, "We really don't have to go that far."

She giggles, "You don't know, maybe they don't like me at all - or maybe they push to marry me, and then we really have a situation on our hands."

I stop her, "That is very much too soon."

She nods, "I am aware."

"What about your family?"

"You are going to have to get into shape, not that you are out of shape, then you are going to need to learn to speak their language, Korean by the way, and then you are going to have to learn a set of rules that they follow. Then you are going to have to convince me because there is no way I am going to them."

I chuckle, "You could have just led with that piece of info."

She lifts her shoulders, "I like being dramatic."

"Just a little bit."

"When is this?"

"When I let them know."

She tilts her head to the side, "Maybe... next weekend? I should be free."

"Are you sure? I don't want to overwhelm you with my family... they are pretty dysfunctional."

"Aren't we all?" she lifts herself as she heads to the fridge, "Then it is a deal, also, Kai'Sa wants to meet you."

I then look at her, "Am I going to have to meet all of them?"

"Eventually, I love them like sisters," she then pours us both a glass of soda, "But with Kai'Sa maybe the three of us can get into some exercising."

I nod, "I was kinda thinking about it... making myself a little-"

She places the cup in front of me, cupping my face, "You don't have to change just so that society will accept you. You are perfect for me, if you want to change because YOU want to do it, then I will be there for you."

I speak despite my squished face, "I dwidnt mweantt tho mhake-"

"What?" she lets go of my face.

"I didn't mean to make it sound like I am doing it because of it," I state, "Maybe I can look a little better - I don't think I have ever been that serious about my appearance."

She giggles, "If that is the reason, then I am fine with it. We will see okay?"

I don't mind myself at all, but it wouldn't hurt to look a bit better.
