Can you leave me alone now? • Scaramouche X Reader

Chapter 11 • Alone with you

"Y/n?" You could hear Scaramouche's tired voice from next to you as you woke up.

The two of you had fallen asleep on the couch for who knows how long. You couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed.

"Scara? How long were we asleep." He picks his phone up from next to him. The time read 9:34
"Four hours... that's more than I sleep every night." Scaramouche complained while you laughed.

Scaramouche gets up and walks towards the window while Neko jumps back onto your lap after noticing you're awake.

"It's dark out y/n, do you wanna stay the night?" The offer surprised you.

Sleeping over? At your crushes house? This was a lot.

Scaramouche noticed the uncomfortable look on your face. "Relax, I don't mean in my bed. You can spend the night in the guest room. I'd rather die than sleep in the same bed as you." His snarky tone made you happy. The comment didn't.

"Alright. But can we watch one more movie before than?" You pleaded. He proceeded to groan and flop back into the spot next to you.

"Scaramouche?"

"Hm?"

"How did Yoimiya know about the stuff that you did?"

He paused for a moment to think. "I don't know."

"What?"

"The only people that I know went to Liyue are Kazuha and Childe."

"But they wouldn't say anything..." I add.

"Right. I'm guessing word just got around. Knowing her, she's probably friends with people from Liyue." He explained.

"That makes sense." But who?...

2:47 AM

The two of you got a bit distracted. What was the plan to watch just one more movie turned into watching two. Then, turned into watching kpop performances. Then turned into just talking. Talking about anything and everything.

"There is no way you like dogs more than cats" Scaramouche stared at you shocked.

"I love cats! I just like dogs slightly more.." You laughed.

"I hope Neko hears this and hates you." He flopped into the couch. You replied with flopping into the couch as-well. Scaramouche turns to look at you and you do the same.

Minutes spent just staring at each other. You could see his eyes look into yours, then your lips, then your eyes again.

Are we about to?..

But then a yawn slipped out. One of those loud ones. Scaramouche couldn't help but laugh at the silence being ruined.

"Do you wanna go to bed now?" He asked.

"Not really." You wanted to spend more time with him...

"Well I do." He stands up and walks towards the stairs. You jump up and run to catch up with him.
He then stops at a door. "You can stay here." You walk in and he leaves.

The room was nice. Much nicer than yours. Neko followed you up and jumped onto what was your bed for the night. You threw the sheets up and just as you were gonna climb in the door opened.

Scaramouche! He threw clothing onto the end of the bed. "You weren't seriously gonna sleep in that right? You're gross." Before you could thank him he leaves.
