chapter 3

°Zhongli's POV°

As we got to my home I placed him on the bed as he tightens his grip on my blazer I gave him.

-" Stay here.. I'll prepare a warm bath okay?"

He nods as he continues to shiver but not as much as before but he was still cold.

I go to the bathroom as I start the bath and run the water and setting up towels and some of my clothes as i go and pick up Childe and place him on the side of the tub and start to undo his shirt.

-"wh-what are you doing.?! I can d-do it myself.."

He spoke still quite cold and latched onto me and then he whined as he held his hip.

-" come on.. Please your hurt."

He looked down but sighed as he nodded and I continued to undress him and soon enough placed him into the bath tub he whined because of the hole in his hip.

I sighed as I started to put shampoo in his hair and scrubbing it and he started to gradually fall asleep mid way washing him.

°Childe's POV°

I felt my eye lids slowly getting heavier as Morax kept washing me...he's hands were delicate..and soft so I ended up falling asleep in the bath.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-"Childe... Wake up I need to bandage you up. Sit up please.."

Is the first thing I heard when from Morax while he was stroking my hair so I can wake up, I sat up and stretched as I started to undo my bandage for Morax too re-do it.

-" I'll apply rubbing alcohol first okay? It'll sting.. A lot."

He said as he started to open the bottle and put a cotton bud onto it, damping it slowly and then placing it on my hip.

-"Argh! Th-that hurts.! Stop!"

I jerked up as I pulled his hand away as I held my hip tearing up.

-" I'm sorry childe but I need to do it.. Or else it's going get infected.."

Morax says as he grabs my back and pushes my back forward making me arch my back so he can continue putting rubbing alcohol on my hip

-"if it hurts just tighten your grip on me and I'll stop for a bit"

He says as I nod and he starts to rub it again, I abruptly jerk my back as I tear up and grab onto morax and try to endure the pain from the rubbing alcohol.

-"I'm nearly done just hold on for a bit longer.."

He says as I nod and hug him tighter as he presses the rubbing alcohol toughly against the wound and I immediately start to cry more

-"Arghh! St-stop! Stop i-it hurts! Please i-it hurts!"

I hug him as I cry onto his shoulder while holding my hip.

-"shhh... Childe I'm sorry I had too now sit up please.. All I have to do is re-bandage it and then I need to do your shoulder.. I'm sorry.. I know it hurts you how do you want me to make it up to you..?"

Morax asked me as I look at him with my teary eyes, he frowns as he rubs my cheek to move my tears

-"please stop crying... I'm sorry really but I need to do it.."

He says as he sits up and starts to undo my shoulder bandage as I just play with his hair to distract me.

-"do you like my hair?.."

He asks me as I look at his hair and nod

-"it's soft..and pretty.."

I tell him as I look at it, he suddenly backs away from me and undoes his hair, I could feel my cheeks warm up as I look at his hair falling delicately in front of him.

-"play with my hair while I do that, it will distract you I guess.."

He says as he damps the cutting bud again dambing it on my shoulder as I stroke my fingers through his hair, I gotta say it's so soft you could fall asleep while playing with it.

He had finished re-doing my bandages and i was half asleep when he told me he was finished.

-"Childe I'm done.. Come I'll prepare food for you"

He said as I nodded and leaned on him while I got up

-"Mhmm...i don't wanna walk I'm tired.."

-"Already? But you just woke up?"

I just look at him as I hug him tiredly, he sighs as he picked me up and started to go down stairs with me in his hands and he set me down on the dining chair and then goes to prepare food for us.

"He's so beautiful with his hair down...he looks so peaceful"

I thought to myself as I just stared at him smiling, I snapped into my senses and looked the other way as I started to blush.

-"Do you want me to feed you or do you think you can do it yourself?"

He asked me, I told him I can try by myself and he simply nodded as he put the food in a plate and placed it down in the table and set my plate after his.

-"Thank you morax.."

He seemed to be bothered after I said that sentence and he started to eat frustrated.

-"Morax.? are you okay? You seem bothered.."

I asked as I tapped his shoulder to grab his attention

-" stop calling me that.. You know you can call me zhongli..right?"

He said looking seriously at me. I found it hard to swallow the saliva in my mouth but I managed.

-" s-sorry.. I just... We got distanced... And since your an archon.. I thought to respect you so I... Uhm..decided to call you morax as respect.. I'm sorry"

I told him as I looked down and continued to eat, I was turning quite red so I just continued to look down..

-" we'll travel to Mondstadt in a few days.. I don't want to keep you all locked up here.."

He said and I looked up shocked but smiled as I got up and hugged him and thanked him, I smiled and sat down and started to eat again.

-"I'm sure we'll have a great time there.."

He said quite seductively and I looked at him quite confused but I nodded and placed my plate in the sink.

-"I'm gonna go to sleep... I'm tired.."

-"sleep well childe.."

He said before I left upstairs to the room zhongli had let me have.
