Leon had taken Y/N to one of the nicest bars in town, which really means the only bar that isn't dirty, nor filled with perverts.

Y/N was very.. nervous. They had never once been in a bar, well maybe that's a stretch actually.

Y/N had of course been in a bar with friends once, but never on like a.. date? Or at least, with someone they were attracted to.

"So, L/N, what's your poison?" Leon suddenly pipes up as they sit down. His arm is resting on the bar and he's looking at them, giving them his full attention.

The only thing that would make it better is if he was batting his eyelashes, and if this was a real date.

"Uh.. I've never really drank much. The most I remember drinking was some vodka Jell-O shots at my aunts wedding when I was.. kinda young." Y/N admits and looks away, a little embarrassed.

They had no reason to really be so embarrassed but, they just didn't wanna disappoint Leon. And if he was a drinker, and they couldn't keep up, he could find someone who could.

"To be honest, I expected that of you L/N.. you do seem pretty by the book. I bet you were so scared you'd get in trouble." Leon chuckles and shakes his head.

"Oh god.. this is so embarrassing. He's laughing at me like I'm some.. child."

Y/N thinks to themself as they play along, laughing with Leon to make it feel less.. awkward.

"Yeah, I was a little bit." They add, wishing they could crawl into a hole and die right now.

Call them dramatic, but who wouldn't in a situation like this?

"Hey, I'm paying tonight so I want you to try some whiskey, alright?" Leon offers, seeming thrilled at the idea.

"Uh.. sure?" Y/N smiles as Leon waves down the bartender.

When both Leon and Y/N have their drinks, Y/N was nervous to take a sip.

However, Leon was already drinking his like a man who just found water after days in the desert.

"L/N.. if you don't want it I can drink it." Leon says, joking a bit but he's also serious. He's not the type to push people into uncomfortable situations, or peer pressure them in any way when it's really not wanted.

"Nah I'm good, I wanna try it." Y/N says and begins to take a sip, their face scrunching up in disgust at the initial taste of the beverage.

Leon then chuckles, seeming amused at Y/N's reaction. "It's alright, darlin'. Whiskey ain't for everyone."

Y/N was at first happy about his reassurance, and more so happy that he called them "darlin". But, whiskey was for him. If Leon likes whiskey so much, maybe they should? No, that's ridiculous. Well, they still don't wanna disappoint him, so..

"Nah man, I've got this!" Y/N suddenly says before chugging the whiskey, the liquid filling there senses in an instant.

Their nostrils burn with every breath, their mouth and throat set ablaze as it goes down, and finally the lava like liquid hits their stomach, making them nearly vomit on the spot.

But, they pull it together. For the sake of impressing Leon.

"Oh.. Jesus Y/N, are you sure that wasn't too much for ya?" Leon asks.. using their real name for once.

"I'm great! I've never been better!" Y/N giggles, clearly just a bit tipsy feeling, not like full on drunk but also not fully.. not drunk? Very confusing.

Leon looked worried, but nodded and figured that they are a grown person, they can make their own decisions.

As time progressed, Leon and Y/N had ended up talking for hours, about both nothing and everything all at once.

"I've gotta go to the bathroom, I'll be right back, okay rookie?" Leon asks, to which Y/N nods rather drunkenly.

Leon was definitely hesitant on leaving Y/N alone, but decided that a five minute trip to the bathroom wouldn't lead to anything, it was either that or he piss his pants.

Y/N sat alone for a minute, which felt like an eternity without Leon. Fuck what they would give to be able to have his scent engraved in their nostrils forever, to have the memory of his smile embedded in their brain, to for once feel the touch of his hand against their needy and eager body.

Y/N was snapped out of their thoughts when suddenly they felt a tap on their shoulder, and when they turned to look it was another older gentleman, which was an understatement.

This man had a receding hairline, box dye looking black hair that had white roots to it, his facial and other body hair was grown out and definitely not taken care of, and as soon as Y/N faced him a pungent and disgusting smell hit their nose, making them wanna vomit.

⚠️(This part will be about creepy guy, so he warned)⚠️

"Hey sweet ass, I've got a huge problem, and you're the cause of it. I kinda need some.. help."  The man said in a hoarse voice.

Y/N was disgusted, and felt very uncomfortable with this man being anywhere near them. "Kinda here with someone, no thanks." They say.

It isn't a lie, but it isn't a whole truth. They were in a way implying that Leon was their exclusive boyfriend oh, what a dream that would be.

"Yeah, I saw him. Trust me, that guy seems weak. I mean, he takes care of his appearance like a woman. You need a man doncha? Someone who can.. boss you around and make you his property." The man spoke, leaning over and putting a hand on the table behind Y/N, causing: you guessed it, more uncomfortable closeness.

"No. Thanks." Y/N spoke more sternly and turned away from him. So much for there being totally no creeps here, and for a nice time with Leon.

"Come on.. let's just go to the bathroom, for a minute. I bet I can make ya' scream." The man spoke again, this time wrapping his arms around Y/N's waist.

"No way! Get off me!" Y/N said very loudly and in a distressed manner. They were about to fight back, and probably kick this old fuck's ass, but suddenly their savior came.

Leon had grabbed the man by the back of the shirt and shook his head. "Sir, you're too old too be acting like this. You should know by now that no, means fucking no." He practically growled at the man, seeming so protective over Y/N.

"L-look pal I don't want no trouble, I'll.. see myself out." The older man spoke and quickly scurried off, probably to an alleyway to find another way to get laid tonight.

"Hey, you okay?" Leon had checked on Y/N, putting his hands on their shoulders.

"Yeah.. I'm, I'm fine, I just- that was so weird." Y/N says and blushes a bit, probably from Leon's proximity now.

"Want me to take you to your place?" Leon asks, seeming worried about the rookie agent who was quite literally just harassed.

"That would be.. so nice." Y/N smiles and bites their lip, feeling nervous and very anxious.

After Leon drops Y/N off and gets to his own home, he sits on his couch and contemplates things.

"Dammit, man. That's my rookie, I have every right to be protective, to even be pissed off." Leon starts strongly, ranting to his cat: Casket.

"But why.. Cass, why was I so, jealous?" He asks and looks at Casket while petting her head.
