Catras POV:

"What do you mean by that?" Adora asked confused

"What did I mean by that?" I thought, panicking at this point but determined to just go for broke and play whatever hand I had in trying to keep her here with me. Adora was interesting, hot and cute + totally my type...and also just enough of an emotionally and sexually repressed mess who, I was convinced, could be fixed with just enough time and the right approach "Do you..think that there is no way you could be Gay? Not even the smallest possibility?"

"I...no...I mean, of course i'm sure"

"Then I bet that I can show you that you are a lot more confused than you think, if you give me a chance. If you turn out straight, what do you lose?"

Adora thought about it but looked at me angrily "Do you ...like wanna date me or something?"

"No no no, you misunderstand. This is a purely transactional relationship. I take care of the place and even cook for us when i'm not too busy with work, while I help you figure out if you're really straight or not, while all you do is give me a place to stay...You're getting the deal of your life, in my opinion"

"What...would that entail?" she asked, clearly curious

"I'm just going to be your roommate, nothing more, nothing less but every once in a while, I'm going to test how you react to sudden advances of a Woman. They might be blatantly obvious or may be a bit more subtle but Im, by no means, going to force you to do anything you don't want to, just so we're clear"

Adora, once again, seemed in deep thought. I knew that our night was something she failed to put into Words right now, unable to file the event into any category that would describe "her" in her mind...but the aftermath of it was still reverberating on the inside. Something told me she was in denial for different reason than her own conviction and that her upbringing had something to do with it

"So..you're a..you know...Lesbian?"

"Yes, yes I am. Never was into guys and im never going to be"

She looked at me as if she'd just discovered an unknown species "How...how about I...think on it and give you a call?"

"Nope. Things like this are best decided in the spur of the moment. Humans, in case of doubt, have the weird ability to talk themselves out of something. Yes or no, Adora, that's all you gotta say" her Eyes evaded mine, her Guilt adding to the weight of the decision I've put in front of her. I didn't like to use her feelings like this but I figured that, in the long run, she'd profit from it as well if my assumptions were correct "Worst case scenario, she got a free live in maid for a few months while I look for some place I can afford with what Entrapta is paying me" I thought and after a few more seconds of silence had passed, I made her look at me, carefully tilting her chin to in my direction "This is going to help us both and ...i'm not gonna lie, I'd hate to sleep outside again" I show her a disarming smile and take her Hand

"How....I mean, for how long?"

"Until you tell me to fuck off I guess? I have no timetable in mind" I shrugged, allowing myself a small, white lie

"Cu..could I not sleep a night on it at least?" she asked, her smile seeming a bit wrong and I lose my patience

"Maybe you're the kind that learns the most when she isn't thinking" I say and pull her closer to me, leaning my Forehead on hers, staring directly into those gorgeous light blues "I'm going to kiss you now. After that, you're going to answer me, okay?" Before she could say anything, my lips were on hers but I did give her enough time to move away....she just didn't. Deep and slow, merciless and soft, I've set my goal to make her speechless without scaring her away and the red on her Face told me I've got my wish

She let out a long, shaky breath, moving away from me but keeping her Hand in mine "F-fine but under one condition"

"Shot"

"My Life will not change whatsoever. I will continue to live as I have until now and I will not tolerate anything Sexual without consent...I want to help you but im not selling my Body here"

"...Im a bit insulted you'd think I would need to do that...after all, you were the one who was all too eager to get me into bed" I smirk, turning her hardened facade into a blushing mess again

"Tha...I was drunk and I apologized for that already"

"So kissing you is okay?"

"No...maybe..."

"Hm....we'll figure it out, Princess...so, do we have a deal?" Adora was clearly still hesitating but her Hand slowly shook mine and she nodded "Good.." i say and stand up "Call me when you got that little talk out of the way and when I can move my stuff here....or don't and i'll show up in a week anyway" just as I opened the door, Adora jumped up

"Wait...it's already late and it's still shit weather out there...just stay here the night" she said, scratching her neck

"Oh? You know how that sounded, right?"

"Yes....but we already made a deal so don't expect anything tonight"

"Just tonight hm?" I can't help but grin "You are so easy to fluster, this is gonna be fun"

"...for one of us"

I close the door behind me and walk back over, stopping right in front of the blonde "Trust me...you'll have your fun too"

"...just shut up and pick a Movie while I order us some Chinese"

"Sounds like a roommate already. See? This is gonna be great" I smile and flip on the TV

A few hours, a few Wontons, Spring Rolls and sweet and sour Duck over Rice later, Adora had fallen asleep on the couch, ignoring the last few minutes of "Inception" and I sat there, looking at her slightly drooling on the cushion "So defenseless, so confused...so damn cute...it's not gonna be easy for me to keep my hands off you, Adora" I stretch my Arms and lay her Legs so she can sleep a bit more comfortably "...I might actually have a crush on you, dummy" I think to myself and sigh, trying to figure out if I have lost my mind yet "A crush on a closeted, maybe Gay? Her points were not wrong, she could be het and I would just waste my time trying to...to do what? I already slept with her and I am not in any position for a relationship...what could I possibly have to offer to her?..she still has a Future..."

Slightly depressed when I thought about my options, I take a blanket from the Bedroom and spread it out over us on the couch, hoping that I wasn't wrong in putting my hopes into this desperate move
