Male!Kanaya X Reader

...Kanaya.  You grinned, trying to hide any of your previous apprehension at visiting your secret crush's hive.

"Hi Kanaya," you say raising a hand and giving a tiny wave.  "Can I come in?"

The jade-blooded he-troll nodded politely in greeting and opened the door wider for you.

"Yes.  I have been waiting for you, ______.  Please, come inside."

You blinked gratefully, albeit shyly, as you entered his hive.  You paused and waited for Kanaya to close and lock the door behind you after you entered.  As he did so he turned to face you, folding his hands behind is back.

"So Kanaya, why'd you invite me over here tonight?"

"I was hoping you'd be able to help me try on and perhaps tailor a few outfits I've been working on," he explained, his voice calm and low.

You blinked in surprise and shifted a bit on your feet uncomfortably.  Kanaya wanted you to be his model?  Why you of all the girls and she-trolls he knew?  You hardly felt like you were fashion worthy and were almost nervous about letting him that close to you in order to tailor his outfits, but you put on a brave smile and swallowed before replying.

"I'd love to help you, Kanaya."

"Splendid, darling.  Come with me, if you'd please," he said, offering his arm to you as he stopped by your side.  Trying not to blush, you took his arm as he walked you into his hive.

"Wow," you breathed as you looked around the dressing room he'd brought you in.  It was filled with racks of gorgeous, intricately-designed outfits, most of which were flowing gowns.  You weren't exactly thrilled at the thought of wearing a dress--dresses weren't your thing--but you did see some that looked rather nice.

One dress in particular caught your attention.  It was a long, iridescent, (f/c) gown with spaghetti straps.  Kanaya saw you eyeing it and he walked you over to it.  He let go of your arm to lift the dress off of the rack.  He held it out to you.

"Would you like to try this one on?"

You felt your heart begin to race a bit as you looked from him to the dress.  You tried to quiet your heart for fear of him hearing it and nodded shyly.  His eyes sparkled a little with what seemed to be excitement?

"Splendid!  Follow me," he said, draping the dress over one arm while taking your left hand in the other.  He led you to a room divider which he hung the hanger on.  He turned to look at you, smiling pleasantly.

"This is where you will be changing, just behind this dressing shutter.  I'll be waiting for you through those curtains," he informed you as he pointed to large, white curtains covering a large archway leading onto a raised catwalk in front of a few rows of chairs like you'd see in a theater.

You knew what was there as you'd been to several of Kanaya's fashion shows before.  You'd always admired his work and made a point of attending every one on the off chance that he'd notice you.  But no matter how many times you showed up, it seemed he still held you in the same regard as he did with all of his fashion show attendees.

You pushed all discouraging thoughts from your mind as you slid behind the dressing shutters and hesitantly began to take off your clothes as soon as you heard him exit the large dressing room.

Kanaya left you to get dressed as he went and turned on a few dim lights over the catwalk before sitting down with his clipboard containing the sketch of the dress you were going to be wearing for any tailoring notes he wanted to make.  He nervously meddled with one of the page's curling corners as he waited for you to appear on the raised platform in front of him.  You hadn't just imagined that gleam in his eyes earlier, he really was excited that you'd agreed to try on some outfits.  He had designed the very dress you were going to be wearing with you in mind.  It was all part of a plan he'd come up with to get you over to his hive.
