AN: This story is heavily inspired by one of 'ReadBetweenTheWines' videos on TikTok, but I've obviously changed it a bit. Who knew we needed a Boxer Leon? Not me, but I kind of love it♡

K/N- Kids name
--------------------------------------------------------

I take K/N's hand in my own as we weave between the crowded lines entering the arena, at some point it becomes too busy so I scoop up the little boy, holding him close in my arms as we make it to the priority line, then I grab the tickets and we head into the massive stadium where Leon's fight is being held. His son wiggles in my arms, pointing out every single photo of his dad as I smile and nod, then I take us both to our front row seats, my nerves a little on edge about this entire idea.

It's bring your kid to work day today, and I felt bad about Leon not being able to do bring his son to his fight, so I took matters into my own hands. Since I'm K/N's nanny, I figured I'm still technically looking after him whilst giving Leon and his son this experience of a lifetime. His son shuffles in his seat, bright blue eyes wide as he soaks in the enormous crowd and music thumping around us. "This is all for daddy?" He asks me in amazement.

I nod, feeling proud of Leon. "Yeah, a lot of people came to see him. That's why daddy couldn't bring you here with him, because it's very overwhelming for him, but since you're here with me he doesn't have to worry about you." I softly say, ruffling his hair as he grins. We don't have to wait long for the crowd to go wild, then the first opponent comes out, doing the classic boxing ring strut and smacking his chest. K/N boos at him, earning a laugh from me. Then everyone goes silent, until Leon walks down the corridor and into the ring. Screams and yells fill the room as K/N joins them. I'm glad I managed to get us front row seats, because as soon as Leon turns to wave at our side his eyes snag on us, and he does a double take before a grin splits his lips.

He doesn't hesitate to climb out of the ring, jogging over to us, then he crouches down as a series of cameras pan to us. I smile as Leon hugs his son, then pulls back, giving him a fist bump with his boxing glove. Leon's eyes find mine as he stands, "Hey" he murmurs, then he turns and walks away, stopping just before getting back in the ring to throw me a wink over his shoulder. Internally I'm freaking out, he's dramatically handsome and sexy, but I can't ever admit that out loud, he's kind of my boss for goodness sake, and his son is sat right next to me. I play the wink off, averting my eyes elsewhere as the referee begins to shout out the rules and ask if both men are ready, but when the fight is about to begin I let myself admire Leon's strength and muscles.

The fight doesn't go on for long. I check on the little boy often, since this is a little aggressive, but he seems utterly transfixed on his dad, gazing up at him as Leon dodges punches and throws a few of his own. Leon sometimes checks on us too, his eyes flick to our side as if he's watching for his son's reaction, then on round three Leon achieves a knockout, winning the whole match. The crowd goes wild, and his son cries tears of joy. It's the sweetest thing ever.

"Can we go see daddy now?" K/N asks sweetly once the music resumes and the audience begins to leave, but I shake my head, feeling a little guilty at the way his face drops. I take his hand, bending down to look at him.

"There's gonna be hours of press interviews and you daddy needs to do some more work stuff, but we'll see him at home later tonight, okay?" I smile, hoping the kid doesn't cry on me. Thankfully he nods, pleading for some fast food instead, so of course I allow it, and we also buy Leon a small gift too from his son's insistence. The day turns to evening, which soon turns to night. K/N is exhausted, and goes to bed early without protest of seeing his dad, which surprises me. I make sure he's asleep and comfortable, then head downstairs of the large house, perching on the sofa to wait for Leon so I can go home. The night draws on, and I don't even realise I've fallen asleep until Leon's gently shaking my shoulder, crouching in front of me with a soft smile on his face.

"Hey sleepyhead," He murmurs, "I'm back now."

I smile, still in that place between waking up and being asleep. My eyes are heavy as I nod, yawning and stretching, until reality kicks back in. My eyes widen suddenly, then I'm sitting up so fast I almost send Leon flying backwards. He grabs the sofa near my thigh to keep steady as I look around, noticing it's around three in the morning. "Oh my...shit, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to fall asleep. K/N's fine, and I've already locked-" I begin, but Leon moves his hand to pat my knee.

"I know," He gently says, "I've checked on him. I trust you."

My shoulders slump in relief, then I stand up, wobbling a little with my exhaustion. "I should get going now." I mumble, but Leon shakes his head, stepping in front of me as his hand finds mine.

"No, it's fine you've had a long day, you can just stay here until the morning. There's the guest bedroom upstairs next door to mine." He shrugs, suddenly letting go of my hand as if he didn't realise. It only catches on moments later that he's touched me, and I blush.

"I shouldn't. It's fine, I can get home okay-"

"Please." Leon pleads, eyes searching mine. "It'll make me feel better knowing you're here safe rather than driving when you're so tired. Just...please?"

My shoulders slump in defeat, and I nod. Leon shows me to the bedroom, then after thanking him I close the door, getting ready for bed and getting changed into the oversized shirt Leon lent me. I'm too sleepy to question it, so I just slip it on after brushing my hair, ready to collapse into bed, but when my door knocks I freeze, then walk over to open it. As soon as I do I'm greeted by Leon leaning against the doorframe, dressed in only some grey sweatpants. My breath hitches at the sight, and I'm far from rational right now.

"Is everything alright? Have you changed your mind, because I can go..." I lead off as Leon's lips quirk up, then he's leaning forwards, pressing a finger to my mouth that quietens me. I swallow deeply, feeling a sudden heat between my thighs at the simple yet attractive gesture, but then he pulls his hand away.

"Everything's fine, I just wanted to thank you, for today. I've never had to chance to bring him to a match before, but seeing him watch me and that smile of his...God, it makes it so worth it." Leon honestly says, face so open and raw. I nod, lifting up a shoulder.

"It's fine, K/N really loved it, he adores you and wouldn't stop talking about you on the way home, especially your knockout." I reply.

Leon's mouth turns into a smirk as his eyes dip to my lips, then they flick back to my heated gaze. "Yeah, well I wanted to impress."

I huff a laugh, "He was definitely impressed by you."

Leon's eyes darken as he leans into me, lowering his head until his lips are inches away from my own. I feel my knees weaken at the sight of him, and get a brief waft of his cologne. "I'm glad, but that's not who I wanted to impress." I lick my lips, feeling myself inch towards him, then Leon adds "Were you impressed by me Y/N?"

I blush, feeling my hands shake from the mixture of nervousness and excitement. "What are you doing?" I whisper, the rational part of my brain knows that Leon's my boss. I'm his kid's nanny. Yet...

"Tell me if you were impressed, because I'm about to kiss you if you say yes." Leon deeply says, arm reaching out and wrapping around my back, pulling me to him until we're chest to chest. I gasp, then nod, letting my emotions take the reigns.

"Yeah, I was impressed." I whisper in response, then Leon's lips crash to mine. It's messy and passionate, his tongue dominates mine and I'm falling apart for him, my hands grab at his shoulders to help me lift onto my toes as he groans into my mouth, his hand lowering until he's grabbing my bare thighs, squeezing in a way that has me whimpering. We pull away, checking each other's reactions, then within seconds we're back onto each other, kissing like it's our last day on earth, and when Leon closes the door behind us, I know that I'm doomed in such a good way.
