Clouds Cover the Sun Because they like the warmth

A Unique Confession

The door opened with a click and the two stumbled into the room. One of the first things Manon did was toss her purses onto the floor before kicking off her heels. After Norman locked the door he kicked off his shoes, and threw his blazer, and kicked off his shoes. When he did Manon grabbed his hands before moving them back and forth while humming a mix of songs. Norman laughed as he followed her steps. "We could've stayed to dance longer." Norman said as Manon shrugged. "And you want to have a worse hangover tomorrow." Manon replied before Norman pulled her closer. 

"It wouldn't matter if I was by you." Manon felt her face turn bright red but before she could give any response back Norman kissed her. Manon smiled into the kiss before twirling around and falling down on one of the beds. Dragging Norman with her. He was especially surprised when she flipped him around. When she pulled back she got to see his flushed face. Even though their position was rather compromising, Manon could care less. "Got you back." She snickered. While Norman looked back at her lovingly. Cupping her face before pulling her in for another kiss. Though things got heated pretty quickly. Manon nibbled, and licked his lip, and next thing she knew her tongue was able to slip into his mouth. She was used to things getting freaky. Especially after a night of drinking. Yet this was a little out of the ordinary. Don't get Manon wrong, she wasn't a virgin by any means, yet this was unusual. Compared to past partners she rarely topped. Let alone from the start. 

Though Norman wasn't trying anything to get it going further. Outside of just brushing bits of her hair. Another hand remained on her waist. While her's remained on his shoulders. She found she didn't mind. Tonight was already good. Plus it felt nice not to have stuff getting out of hand right now. Eventually they parted for air. Chest huffing as she looked at Norman's very starstruck face. Manon couldn't help but give a small smile before planting a peck on his cheek. Before planting another and another all over his face. Norman giggled as she did so. "Manon, I'm going to have to clean that off.' Norman said while laughing. Manon didn't stop though. Even as he playfully tried to nudge her away. "I can just make more." Manon teased before Norman quickly tackled her. Causing Manon to yelp as she landed on her back. Norman gave her a quick peck on the lips. "Payback." He said with a smirk. Manon couldn't help but laugh. Using her elbows to help sit her up before kissing him again. Bringing her hands up to cup his face. This time it wasn't as heated. As the two rolled over to their sides. 

"I love you." Norman said as they parted. "I love you too." Manon said as she snuggled into his chest. Laying there peacefully in each other's arms. With Norman's fingers combing through her hair. Just peacefully sat in silence. Until Manon broke it with what was the worst ice breaker. She wasn't sure if it was the alcohol, or the circumstances that led them to this night. "I remember when I would drink with my ex's the night would usually end in sex. I'm glad tonight is ending differently." Manon muttered, a little sleepily. She noticed Norman's hand stopped moving. Confused Manon looked up to see Norman looking uncomfortable. He had been uncomfortable when her aunt Tiffany made a reference to them having sex. "Is everything alright?" Manon asked as Norman gave her a smile. "Yeah, sorry, just tired." Manon wasn't buying it for a second. She moved herself up to him. "Norman. I know something is bothering you. What is it?" He had been so nice to her for the evening. Making sure her comfort was of top priority that evening. He deserved the same. Norman let out a sigh as he looked away. "It's complicated, and I understand if you want to break up afterwards." Manon felt her heart sink. Had he been cheating on her? She had doubts he would. He was far too kind, and to face it there wasn't really anything he could use her for. 

"I've heard from people all about sex and stuff, and I've never really felt the desire to have it. Let alone find women attractive when sexualized. Hell I've had a hard time even finding myself wanting girlfriends. Like exceptions happen, but for the most part I don't feel it, and I've even surprised several of my family members when I didn't get boners that often, let alone horny. I think I might have some problems." Manon's brows raised as she looked at Norman. He had turned onto his back to face away from her, and for the first time Manon could see shame in his face. He even removed his hands from her. Manon's face softened into a smile as she put her hand on top of his. Norman looked confused as he turned to face her. Manon looked into his eyes. "You don't have issues because of that. If anything I've felt things similarly." Norman's eyes widened as Manon looked away. "Like I don't mind sex, don't get me wrong, but I definitely don't feel the need, or even really understand the whole hype and stuff." Manon had looked away a little embarrassed finally admitting it. She didn't even think about it just to ignore it. Just to feel normal. 

A light sizzle caught her attention back to Norman. Staticky tears were dripping down his face. Onto the sheets sizzling away and just leaving behind a tear stain. It was so incredibly surprising. She had never seen Norman cry before. It seemed he didn't even realize it until Manon wiped a tear away. It tickled a little, but didn't do any damage. Manon wanted to give some funny remarks. Or say something. Digging around for something but the moment didn't need any words. AS Norman pulled her close letting his tears flow freely. Manon wiping them away. Pressing gentle kisses to his lips. As for that night. She couldn't think of a better way to fall asleep. Cuddled with her lover and the two opening up about something they thought no one else understood. In the end that night was perfect. And Manon wouldn't have any other way.

For those who are confused (and these are completely my head cannon's) I've decided for this fic the Normal Guy is grayromanitc/asexual. While Manon may be somewhere else on the asexual spectrum. (Though we'll just say she is asexual ;)) Anyways the reason why. They just give off really ace vibes. Or am I only one who thinks that?
