"Well this is my place, go a head and make yourself at home." Childe pointed to the couch. "Thank you for your hospitality." Zhongli said. "Oh it's no problem, like I said make yourself at home." Zhongli smiled at the response and sat down on the sofa.

Childe took out his phone and scrolled through the food apps he had. "So what are you feeling? The popular choice of pizza, or something else?" Zhongli thought for a moment. "Pizza sounds good, what do you think about pepperoni?" Childe grinned placing the order. "Pepperoni it is!" He said then sat besides Zhongli after and nervously played with his fingers.

Silence. The same one from before.

"Childe, I don't know if you'll ever for give me." Zhongli said abruptly. "I was being rather childish and freaked out, taking it out on you, which hurt you. I'm surprised you even agreed to have dinner with me haha." Childe sat there silently not saying a word. "I'm so sorry, sorry won't cut it but I don't know what else to do, how can I eve-" Zhongli was cut off by another's lips to his mouth. It was soft, warm, and it felt fuzzy. Butterflies were in his stomach.

The kiss was broken apart after a few seconds. Zhongli was stunned. Childe blushed and quickly turned his face the other way. "I don't wanna hear it." Childe said still facing away from him. "Oh I'm sorry, I'll stop and leave." Zhongli frowned and got up from the sofa. Childe quickly grabbed his armed pulling him to sit back down. "No I meant I don't wanna hear the word sorry anymore. I forgave you a long time ago. I'm the one who should be sorry, I was being so petty and I was to pushy."

Zhongli was in awe. "I don't know what to do, I think I've fallen to deep for you, I've only know you for a while. Is this normal?" Childe sighed. Zhongli grabbed Childe's hands squeezing them. "Tartaglia. I think I'm in love with you, I now understand that." Childe blushed heavily. "Zhongli. I feel the exact same way."

Their faces leaned in close together. "Can I kiss you again?" Childe whispered. A nod was given from Zhongli. Their lips planted onto eachother once again.

Ring

They quickly pulled apart hearing the ring of the doorbell. "Oh that must be the pizza, I'll go get it." Childe got up from the couch leaving Zhongli in the living room. He was red as a tomato. "We kissed." He thought. "I can't believe it."

Childe walked into the room holding a pizza box. "Pizzas hereee~ let's enjoy!" Childe sang. Zhongli laughed at the sight. "What's so funny?" Childe said sarcastically. "Oh nothing it just your little acts make me laugh." Zhongli replied.

"Then I'll keep doing them for you then! Just for you." Childe snickered. Zhongli smiled.
