Part Three

Y/n's pov

Timeskip brought to you by Faust booping Lucio and then choking  him

Blood covered my face as we rode back to the tavern. We had just finished with the contract and it got...messier than expected. We open the door and were greeted with warmth. I look at Lucio and smile as we approach the table with the man. "Done already?" He asks. We both nod. The man sets the money on the table and we take it happily. I smile at Montag, which probably looked a bit crazy, but he returned it. We shake the man's hand as we walk back to the room. "That was amazing! I haven't felt that thrill since we left the tribe!" I say, twirling. Lucio chuckles as he sits down on the bed. " Thanks for finding that man." He says. " Of course! " I exclaim, " We should probably get clean. ". " I'd love to join you in the shower. " Lucio says, laying on his stomach, head propped on his hands, feet in the air, a sly smirk on his face. I scoff and roll my eyes at him. "In your dreams!" I say laughing. "A lot more happens in my dreams." He says with a wink. I shake my head, still smiling. " Do you wanna shower first or second, you dork?" I ask, sitting down next to him. " It's up to you. " He says. "Go shower," I say, leaning back on the bed. " Care to join? " He asks, getting up. I playfully throw a pillow at him as we both laugh.

Lucio's Pov

By the time I get out of the shower, Y/n is asleep on the bed, curled up. I smile as I sit by her. I gently brush a few strands of hair away from her face. She yawns as she slowly stretches. "Hey." She says, simply. She was still a bit asleep. "Hey," I reply. "My turn?" She asks. I nod. She gets up and slowly moves to the bathroom. I lay back on the bed. She stops in the doorway, perfect body leaning against the side of it. " Thanks for helping me today." She says, looking back at me. Even with blood on her s/t (skin toned) face, she still was adorable. I smile. "Of course," I say as she closes the door. I close my eyes and try to savor the memory of the small smile. Slowly, I doze off.

Y/n's pov

The warm water falls over my body as I yawn. I'm happy I got at least a little bit of sleep. I hadn't been able to with my anxiety being how it was. I was so worried about us being able to stay here so that we wouldn't die. I wash the blood off my face as I hear a knock on the door. "Come in?" I say, confused. "I wanted to replace the towel I used. Here." I hear Lucio's voice say. I peer out from behind the curtain to see him placing a towel on the rack. "Thanks," I say. He looks over at me. "You missed a spot." He says. "Where?" I ask. He grabs my face and pulls me into a kiss. After a few seconds, he pulls back. " There." He says, smirking. He leaves the room with me, shocked and blushing. I finish showering and get dressed. I walk out, still a bit flustered, as I see Montag on the bed. He waved to me as I lay down. "Night." He says. "N-night. I hope we find more contracts soon." I say. Lucio nods in agreement. I turn on my side as I hear Monty's calm breaths. I lay there, blushing. Why? Why did he kiss me? I always thought we were just good friends. But what if we got together? I push those ideas out of my head as I drift off.

We both jerk up as we hear a small knock at the door. I look over at Monty as he gets up. He opens the door as they start talking. I can't hear much so I lay in bed. After five minutes, Lucio closes the door. He looks back at me, grinning. "We just got our second contract." He says. I jump out of bed. " That's amazing! When is it?" I ask. " It's due in three days. I'll fill you in on the details later," he says, jumping into bed. I grab his arm and drag him up. " No! Get up and tell me now." I say. He groans as he stands up. " What do I get in return?" Montag asks, leaning into me with a smirk. I blush and stick my tongue out. " You get me not kicking your ass." I laugh. He chuckles slightly and starts telling me the contact. " Rook Mavenborn. The person who gave us the contract just wants us to kill them. That's really it. " He says. I nod and walk over to the bed. "How come you get to sleep?" He pouts. "I'm not. I'm packing."  I say. "Why? It's due in three days."  He says, walking over. " Because we're getting it done early." I explain. He rolls his eyes and mocks me. I punch him in the arm gently as he grabs his bag. Silence swallows the room as our rustling of the bags stop. "You all packed?" I ask. He nods and changes real quick. " What if we didn't come back here?" He asks.  " What do you mean? " I mean what if we find a place to settle down. Like live our lives with out moving room every week. " Monty says. I look at him and sit on the bed. " Umm. I think that would be great but Morga won't stop looking for us. " I say. " But what if it wasn't here. What if it's like far far faaaaar away? " He asks, hopefully, scooting next to me.
