(alhaitham x gn!reader smau)
“you better not eavesdrop”
“I won’t! Just hurry up and get in there!”
You knocked a couple times on the door of Alhaitham’s room, but it stayed quiet from inside. You knew he probably wasn’t going to approach the door anytime soon so you slowly turned the knob to let yourself in.
And there he was. He was standing in front of his window, staring at the pitch black sky with his hands in his pocket. His head was slightly bobbing along to whatever was playing through his headphones. Even though his back was faced towards you and his ears were covered, he knew you were there.
“Did you need something?”
The tone of his voice was cold, but you could tell he wasn’t actually trying to sound that way. He wanted you to comfort him. He wanted you to feel the same way.
“i need to tell you something”
Alhaitham turned to face you as his took off his headphones and tossed them on his bed.
“If you’re here to talk about what happened yesterday I would prefer if we didn’t.”
“It’s clear that we feel differently about one another.”
He looked at you in slight disbelief. You’ve never taken that tone with him before. You were so mad at yourself for letting it get to this point. If only you had thought of yourself for just this once, none of these misunderstandings would have happened.
There was a short pause in his movement. It was obvious that he was shocked by the way his eyes slightly widened the second you said that.
You slowly approached him, closing the gap between the two of you.
“i said i needed time because i thought that it would be wrong of me to tell you how i felt after i had just rejected Childe.”
“but that was such a huge mistake because it ended up hurting you and making everything so much more complicated and i’m so sorry.”
Your rambles were followed by a long silence until Alhaitham wrapped his arms around you and pulled you to his chest.
“There’s no need to worry now.”
“Would I be holding you like this if I was?”
The two of you stayed like this for a little while longer until Alhaitham stepped back, placing his index finger under your chin to tilt it upwards.
You locked eye contact with him as he slowly leaned over, your lips inches apart.
“Is this okay?” He asked.
You responded by closing the gap in between and meeting your lips with his.
He cupped your face with his hand, being extremely gentle as if you were made out of glass.
You truly had nothing to worry about anymore.
He made you feel safe. He made you feel loved. And he felt the same about you.
In this moment, nothing mattered more.
He was yours and you were his.
