A Helpless Princess's Knight (Rogue x Reader)

No. 28

A couple of weeks had gone by since we got back from Crocus. I was starting to get used to seeing everyone in the guild and not being the only bartender. I was fixing drinks for Alzack and Macao.

"So, when's the next family day?" I asked.

"I don't know, I haven't though about it since the Tenrou team came back.." Macao said.

"Exactly why we need to get back to it." I smiled, handing them their drinks.

"You only say that because Rogue want to come along," Macao said, Alzack nodded in agreement.

"No, that's not the only reason... I mean hey, Romeo will want to bring Wendy anyway.." I said, we all looked over to the two.

Romeo and Wendy were playing some kind of card game. They were laughing a lot.

"I guess you're right there.. God, when did my kids grow up?" Macao asked, sipping on his drink.

"How about we do our classic pinic at the Magnolia tree?" Alazack asked, Macao and I nodded at his idea.

"Let's go tomorrow, I mean it shouldn't be to crazy around here." I said.

We all agreed and I awaited Rogue's arrival. I saw his shadow glide upon the barstool infront of me.

"Hey," Rogue said.

"Hey, let's head out?" I asked, he nodded and we started walking home.

"So tomorrow we're going to the Magnolia tree for family day." I said.

"Alrighty, sounds good." He smiled.

"I never asked you, but where exactly do you live?" I asked.

"It's in the next town over, but it really isn't all that far." He said.

"So then when you said it was in your way home, that was a lie?" I asked.

"Yeah... Can you blame me though?" He asked rubbing his neck.

"I guess not..." It went quiet.

I stopped walking. Rogue quickly stopped when he noticed, turning around to look at me.

"Take me there?" I asked blushing.

"For the night?" He blushed, I nodded back to him.

He held me and we went into shadow form til we were in his apartment.

"Sorry if it's dirty. I didn't expect you to want to come over." He said.

I looked around to see that the entire place was very clean and neat. He showed me around and we ended at his bedroom. It was like the rest of the apartment, dark furniture, few lights, and very clean.

"Wow, you call this dirty?" I asked.

"Heh, yeah I like to keep my spaces clean." He rubbed his neck.

I looked down at his bed. I realized... I didn't bring any clothes...

"Something wrong?" He asked.

"I didn't bring any clothes."

"Here, just take one of my shirts. I'll go to the bathroom to get changed." He said, I nodded to him.

I looked down at the shirt. I was happy to wear his shirt. I got changed and looked into the mirror. I heard a knock on the door.
