Assassin! Shay x Assassin! Reader

Author's Note: It's really late. And I'm really bored. So I decided it would be the perfect time to write a request. Sorry for any mistakes. Enjoy!

"Shay, where are you taking me?" You asked for what was probably the hundredth time, but again you were shushed.

"I told you, it's a surprise, now be patient, love, we're almost there." You heard the smooth Irish accent that you loved so much. Currently, Shay's hands were over your eyes as he led you somewhere. You trusted the man enough to not lead you off a cliff or something. A light breeze blew against your skin, only making you wonder once more where you were. The ground beneath your feet was soft, so you came to the conclusion that you were walking on grass. After a couple more minutes of walking, you stopped.

"Here," said Shay, "you can look now." He removed his hands from over your eyes but he slid them down your sides to your waist as he held you against him. You opened your eyes and blinked a couple times. You were soon in awe at what you saw though.

Laid out in front of you was a blanket with different assortments of food. Candles were lit and the flames flickered, beckoning you to come and sit. You turned around in Shay's embrace to face him.

"It's beautiful." You said with a smile, pecking his lips. "Thank you."

Shay smiled in return, one of his hands coming up to brush a strand of hair from your face.
"Anything for you, my love." He whispered, claiming your lips once again. "Shall we eat?" He asked as he pulled back. You nodded eagerly, looking at the food again which looked delicious.

As you sat and ate, you looked around where you were. You both sat atop a small hill with a few trees scattered around you. You watched the sky darken as the sun set and as the first few twinkling stars emerged into the sky.

You had both finished eating by the time night completely fell. Shay looked over at you, his eyes gentle and loving.
"Come here." He urged and without hesitation you moved closer to him, snuggling into his side.

"This was perfect." You said. "What brought this on?"

Shay shrugged lightly, "I thought we both could've used a break from the rest of the assassins. I figured you would've liked it." He answered. You moved slightly so that you could now straddle him. His hands fell on your hips and yours rested on his shoulders.

"I loved it. Just as I love you." A smile crossed the assassin's face as the words left your lips. He leaned forward, softly pressing his lips to yours. You kissed back, moving closer to him, if that was possible. He pulled back and rested his forehead against yours.

"I love you too." He whispered, his fingers ghosting along your waist now. "And I always will, no matter what happens."

You both sat in each other's embrace, whispering words of affection as the stars glimmered brightly above. The candles burned lowly, now basking you and Shay in the light of the moon. For now you could forget the hardships that came with being an assassin and just relax. His words echoed in your head and you smiled.

I love you too. And I always will.
