An Unknown Warmth ... y/n(fem) x Gepard Landau

It's a date!

Once you and your friend got to Neverwinter, Brian had Serval tell you Gepard's schedule while you wrote it down. Your face felt warm the whole time, but you tried to ignore that. 

"And that's all I know. Well this is what he regularly does, but he doesn't change what he does much, he doesn't really like change." Serval said. "Oh! Y/n doesn't like change either, isn't that something?" Brian said as she playfully elbowed your side. "You're really reaching for any similarities we have, huh?" "Uh, yeah, it's fun! I mean even if it's stupid I get to make you blush and then you get upset when I mention that, just like right now." 

You looked away and sighed. "Yeah, yeah, ok. Well anyways we should-" "Hey Serval- oh." You turned around to see Gepard at the doorway, frozen and blushing while trying to avoid looking at you. You were blushing too and staring while your friend tried to hold in her laugh. "Uh...uh," 

"You know, I was actually gonna hang out with Brian some today, and, well I think it'd be a good idea for you two to talk." Serval said, grabbing your friends hand while rushing to get out. "Yeah, we planned this!" Your friend said right before Serval slammed the door behind them.

You gulped hard, waiting for one of you to say something, the silence was awkward and you were starting to itch. That may sound weird, but you were. Suddenly, just as you were starting to zone out, Gepard cleared his throat. 

"Well, I was coming to ask my sister to hang out, as you can see." He gestured to his clothes. You saw how he wasn't wearing his uniform, but a T-shirt and jeans instead. Then you could see his muscles. 

"But uh," You snapped out of your daze. "I guess she's busy." He looked up at you. "And you're not." The two of you blushed at the same time, you almost laughed at that, but you got distracted by that beautiful look in his eyes. 

"Do you wanna go out with me?" He asked. He was a bit more quiet when asking this, but you still heard him loud and clear. "Of coarse." You smiled at him, and he smiled back at you. You walked over to him as he started proposing different places the two of you could go. The place didn't matter, what mattered is that he made a move. (Yippee)

The date was simple, nothing memorable besides the fact it was your first date with each other, let alone first dates ever. The two of you went out to eat, walked around, and just enjoyed each other's company. After the date, he brought you back to Neverwinter where your friend was waiting outside. The two of you said bye and he went inside to talk to his sister. 

You turned to your friend, and before you could say anything she started asking you about everything. "How did it go? Was he a gentleman? Was it a good first date? Where'd you go? What did you do? Every detail Y/n, come on!" "Ugh, I'll tell you when we get back to the hotel tonight." "What!? Not now? Why not?" She questioned. 

"I'm still soaking it in, I guess?" You replied, also questioning yourself slightly. Why won't I tell her now? Suddenly, your phone began to ring. You sighed to yourself as you grabbed it out of your pocket. Oh great. It was Sampo. You brought your phone up to your ear as you and your friend started to walk to the hotel. 

"Hey old friend-" "I'm not old." "-yeah, well, it's just a phrase. Anyways, I was wondering if you wanted to have a drink with me tonight!" "Uh, that sounds nice but why?" "Well I've just been real busy lately and wanted a friend to talk to! It turns out all my "friends" actually don't like me! Can you believe it?" "Oh, uh, sorry to hear it. I guess some people just can't take how fun you are." "Haha, yeah, I guess...I'm glad I have you Y/n." "Aw, Sampo, I'm glad I have you too. Well where did you want to meet?" "Oh, don't worry about that, I'll find you." And before you could say anything else he hung up. 

You once again sighed to yourself and looked at your friend who had an eyebrow raised. "Sampo bothering you again?" "Haha, yeah, you could say that." "Does that guy just have no friends or something?" "Well, you know him, not many people can...'deal with him'." You felt sort of bad saying it like that, but it kinda is just like that.

"You're a good friend, and Sampo better be a good one too. Or else..." She said while placing her fist in her other hand to look threatening. You laughed a bit. "Don't worry, I don't think he'd ever dream of hurting me." "Ok, good." Your friend said, looking a little relieved from your words. 

You turned to your thoughts. He'd never hurt me, but how does he know where I am all the time? Was he the footsteps I heard earlier? Was he that shadow? Does he...follow me?  You shake your head as you try to leave those thoughts. Whatever, maybe I can ask him about it tonight. 

"Oh! Heh heh, um he called me about getting a drink tonight." "What! You were supposed to tell me about your date!" "Heh, sorry, I don't know how I forgot to mention that actually." You said while rubbing the back of your neck. "Ugh, you're starting to remind me of him too." 

AN: The way I love Sampo so much I didn't even realize that we're hanging out with him again. Sorry if you're getting too much Sampo, and sorry I was too lazy to write about Gepie's date. I'll try and give more detail with the next ones and make it more ~romantic~.
