________________________________________________________________
I was on my way back home when I was about to walk past the Angel’s Share. Since it wasn’t that late yet I decided to quickly say hi to Diluc before going home to get a decent amount of sleep before going on the next mission again tomorrow. As I walked through the door, I could already hear that the tavern was really lively already this early in the evening. Diluc spotted me from behind the counter and slightly smiled as he waved me over. I sat down and leaned on the counter.
“Looks like here’s a lot going on today”, I said and started to look around the tavern.
There were a lot of familiar faces from the adventurer’s guild and some lonely members of the Knight of Favonious. As my eyes spotted a certain someone I turned back to Diluc with a confused look on my face. Kaeya was sitting at the back of the tavern on a table all alone wearing not his uniform but just a white shirt, a corset belt and his usual navy pants. With this outfit of his usually all girl and guys would be all over him, chatting and flirting like there was no tomorrow but now he just looked sad and lonely from this point of view.
“Why is Kaeya drinking by himself?”, I asked him pointing over to the somehow sad looking boy with his glass of wine in his hand.
“I have no idea. Ever since he walked in here he looked like that. He didn’t want to tell me what was going on. He just kept ordering drink after drink”, he explained to me while a little bit of concern was coating his voice.
You usually wouldn’t notice if Diluc was feeling worried about someone but when it came to his brother, he couldn’t hide his feelings all the time. As soon as he was concerned about Kaeya there was something seriously wrong.
“Did something happen at work today?”, Diluc added and handed me a glass of water.
“Not that I can think of anything. We did our usual commissions, cleared out a hirlichurl camp outside the city and then returned to the headquarters. I can’t think of anything that would make him so upset to get himself this drunk by himself.”
“Maybe you should go over and talk to him. You’re his friend after all”, he suggested.
“Yeah. Maybe”
As I was about to stand up, I already noticed that Kaeya stood up from his table and started walking over to the bar. He sat down on the stool right next to me and gave Diluc his empty glass. As he leaned over the bar to grab one of the full bottles Diluc smacked his hand away.
“I think you’ve had enough”, he said before he placed a glass of water in front of him.
Kaeya groaned in frustration and looked to his right where he seemed to only have noticed my presence now.
“Why are you looking at me like that? What do you want?”, he asked, his voice sounding a little bit broken and tired.
“I want to know what’s wrong. You look awful right now”
“Thanks, that’s exactly what I wanted to hear from you”, he mumbled and took a sip of the water.
Diluc looked at me signaling that I shouldn’t give up this easily.
“I’m serious. Did something happen that upset you?”, I continued.
I just wanted to know if I did something wrong and he was upset because of me or if there was something else going on.
“It’s none of your business”, Kaeya said and looked at me with such a lonely expression it almost made my heart break.
“I thought we were friends. You can tell me everything and if I did something wrong then you have to tell me so I can fix it. I don’t want to see you look this sad and lonely”, I explained and watched as his expression softened a bit and he sighed.
“Do I look that bad?”, he asked and I just nodded.
“You should leave”, Kaeya added and looked at his glass of water to avoid looking at me.
“I’m only leaving if you promise me to stop drinking and go home”
“I promise”, he whispered almost barely loud enough for me to understand.
“What did you say? I couldn’t hear you”
He sighed and looked at me.
“I promise. I’ll go home. I don’t feel like drinking anymore anyways”, he said, this time loud enough for Diluc and I to hear.
He was about to stand up when he lost his balance and had to hold onto the bar to not fall over. He looked at me and without saying anything I already knew what I had to do.
“I’ll take you home. Don’t worry”
We both finished our water before I walked over to Kaeyas side and helped him stand. I put his arm around my shoulder and put mine around his waist to keep him steady right next to me. As we stumbled towards the entrance Diluc had to shake his head. I waved him goodbye before we left.
“Do you think you can walk on your own or do you want me to carry you?”, I asked him as we arrived outside breathing in the fresh night air.
“I can walk…I think”, he mumbled and we continued to walk towards Kaeyas apartment.
As I noticed that he was struggling to walk on his own I let go of his waist for a second to get in front of him and lift him onto my back. He complained about him being too heavy as he cautiously put his arms around my neck to keep himself on my back.
“Don’t worry about my back. I’m fine. You’re not that heavy and I don’t want you to collapse on the way.”, I explained and playfully squeezed one of his legs.
“You’re too kind”, he whispered and placed his head on my shoulder.
I had to smile. The next 10 minutes felt like they passed by in slow motion. The night breeze was refreshing and even though Kaeya started to get a little bit heavy on my back it still kind of felt nice to have him this close to me. Usually we weren’t this close. Working as a Knight of Favonious under his command wasn’t always easy since he would sometimes start to flirt with people mid battle even if our life depended on it. He became a good friend of mine and even if it did feel weird sometimes to have this casual relationship with the person that was technically my boss, I wouldn’t want to miss working alongside him. It seemed like he had fallen asleep on my back since it took some time for him to react after I had asked for his keys. He rummaged through his pockets until he finally found them. I took them and opened the door. After closing it behind us I looked around to see where his bedroom was. Even though I was working everyday with him I had never been to his apartment before. As I found his bedroom I walked in and let him down gently onto the bed. I turned towards him just to see how he was trying to take off his shoes almost falling over.
“Let me help you take them off”, I said while already getting on my knees and helping him with his high boots.
“You don’t have to help me. I can do it by myself”
“You can barely keep yourself on the bed right now. Just let me help you this once.”
He stayed silent after that and just watched me as I took off his shoes. He was about to lay down when I stopped him.
“Don’t you want to at least take off your belt? I bet it’s uncomfortable to sleep this restrained”, I asked and watched his cheeks turn a light pink as I stepped closer to him.
“No…I mean…maybe…I don’t know”, he mumbled sleepy.
“I’ll help you. Just stay still”
I leaned down and reached out to grab the strings that were keeping the corset belt together. I untied the knot and carefully loosened it before pulling the string out and removing it completely. I could almost see how much better Kaeya could breath right now. Just now I noticed that the shirt he was wearing was only buttoned at the bottom revealing half his chest. I had to look away since I noticed my cheeks heat up a little bit. I had to admit that Kaeya was a really attractive man and that I might have developed a little crush on him but I shouldn’t be thinking like this right now while he was this drunk. I put the corset onto one of his drawers and walked back to the bed.
“Can you help me with these too?”, Kaeya asked his cheeks a constant light pink as he fumbled with his pants trying to get them off in his drunken state.
“S-sure”, I slightly stuttered as I reached for his pants and helped him undo them.
“Can you lift your butt for me?”, I asked and he nodded.
He lifted himself up from the bed while I pulled his pants down. Kaeya sat back down and seemed to sober up a little bit while I carefully folded his pants and placed them right where his corset was now. As I turned back around he was still sitting on his bed, his shirt now pulled down so half of his thighs were covered and his fingers fiddling with the ends of it. It was different seeing him like this, looking all vulnerable and shy suddenly. If he would have been sober, he would have never let me do this to him or he would have made one inappropriate comment after the other. But he seemed to be too drunk to even think about making a flirty comment or maybe even form a proper thought. I walked back to the bed and softly pushed him onto it so he would lay down, but instead of letting me go after his back had gently hit the mattress, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me onto the bed with him, making me land right on top of him. I had to regain my composure as I tried to get off of him without touching anything that he didn’t want me to, but he stopped me just by reaching out and placing his hand on my cheek. I was startled about this sudden intimacy that I froze and just looked down at him. My eyes instantly scanned his appearance and I never regretted doing that more in my entire life than right now. His hair was a little disheveled but still looked beautiful as it was laying on his chest like a beautiful blue scarf. His shirt had opened even more now revealing not only his chest but also his entire left shoulder and the soft look on his face as he began to stroke my cheek so softly that it almost felt like a feathers touch made my heartbeat speed up and my thoughts run wild, making me almost incapable of thinking a single straight thought.
“Kaeya”, I whispered, my arms threatening to give up on me as I looked down at his beautiful face right under me.
“Did I ever tell you how pretty you are?”, he asked almost sounding like he suddenly sobered up completely while he had that daydreaming look in his eye.
“I don’t know. Maybe in one of your flirtatious attempts”
“Then I’ll have to tell you right now. You are absolutely gorgeous”, he said, his hand still stroking my cheek as his other hand moved to grab one of mine and place it on his heart.
I almost gasped audibly as I felt his heart hammer against his chest maybe even faster than mine right now. I didn’t know what to answer after he complimented me like that. My natural reaction was just to turn beet red and wanting to hide for eternity. As he noticed my hesitation to answer he moved his hand to the back of my neck and pulled me down and closer to him. I could almost feel his breath on my skin and it was already driving me crazy.
“If I asked you to kiss me…would you?”, he whispered, his eye focused on my lips.
Did I just hear him right? He couldn’t have asked me that. It was probably just the alcohol speaking but somehow he looked as if he desperately needed to hear the answer to this question.
“I mean…I guess. Yeah”, I whispered back, mainly because I was fearing my voice to give up on me mid sentence.
A small and hopeful smile appeared on his face as he pulled me even closer.
“Kiss me”
His words were still ringing in my ears as I was fighting against my inner demon figuring out if this was a good idea. Since he was this drunk maybe he wouldn’t remember what happened here anyways. But I would and I wasn’t sure if I could continue working with him side by side if my heart kept racing when I was close to him thinking of the kiss. Even though my brain was telling me that this was not a good idea, my heart was screaming and almost begging me to fulfil his wish and maybe just give into that desperate need to feel his lips on mine. I leaned in but instead of going for his lips I placed a soft kiss on his cheek instead. As I moved back and looked at his face there was disappointment and maybe a little sadness written all over it. I felt a little bad but at the same time I was proud that I didn’t completely gave in to temptation.
“You don’t like me like that, do you? You already have someone, right?”, Kaeya asked more to himself as towards me since he couldn’t keep eye contact.
“What are you talking about?”, I asked confused about his sudden assumptions.
“I saw you with Bennett today. I already had a feeling that you were close…but when he hugged you that tight, I just knew that I had no chance anymore”, he continued to talk and removed his hand from my cheek.
Wait! Was this the reason he was drinking all alone at the tavern? To forget that Benny hugged me after our mission?
“So you thought that Benny and I are a couple?”, I asked and watched as he slowly nodded.
I couldn’t help my heart from skipping a beat before a smile creeped onto my face. I couldn’t believe that the Kaeya Alberich, cavalry captain of the Knights of Favonious had gotten jealous over Benny hugging me after our mission was completed. Since Benny and I were friends at the adventurer’s guild before I joined the Knights of Favonious it was just natural for me to hug him when we were parting ways again. Now that I thought of it, I never hugged anyone else than Benny because he was my only and closest friend beside Kaeya.
“Is that why you were drinking?”
Kaeyas cheeks turned a darker shade of pink and I couldn’t help but reach out to stroke his cheek this time.
“There was no need for you getting jealous over Benny. He is my closest friend and since we both have so much to do, I never know when I’ll see him again. That’s why I hug him every time we part. There is nothing between us. We’re just friends”, I assured him and watched how his expression turned a little bit softer.
“But why didn’t you kiss me then?”, he asked, worry still coating his voice.
“Because I don’t want you to forget. Who knows if you’ll remember any of this in the morning.”, I explained.
Kaeya still looked as if he was doubting what I said so I leaned down, removed his hair from his forehead and placed another soft kiss there. His eye instantly found mine again as I moved to my original position.
“I promise there is only one person that can make my heart race”, I said smiling down at him.
“Pinkie promise?”, he asked and held out his pinkie.
“Pinkie promise!”
I hooked my finger with his and had to laugh as he started to smile. He moved his arms around my waist and pulled me down onto him, making my whole weight rest on his body. He buried his head in my neck and I could feel his smile on my skin.
“You’re mine now”, he whispered and sighed as if a heavy burden was just lifted from his chest.
Hearing these words come out of his mouth made me happy and sad at the same time. I was really hoping that this wasn’t just the alcohol speaking and this cute and somehow shy Kaeya wouldn’t disappear in the morning. I remembered that we had an important mission in the afternoon so we both should definitely rest now. I pushed myself up from Kaeya and the bed and looked down at him from where I was standing.
“We should sleep. Tomorrow is a big day and we can’t afford to lose any strength.”
Kaeya nodded and instantly yawned after he had laid down properly on the bed as if the sleep suddenly hit him after his head touched the pillow. I made sure to tug him in so he wouldn’t freeze at night and was about to go to sleep in the living room when he stopped me.
“Y/n? Can you stay with me?”, he asked.
“I’ll stay her until you fall asleep. Deal?”, I responded while kneeling next to the bed and reaching out to softly stroke his head.
“Deal”, he whispered sleepy, already closing his eyes and enjoyed the feeling of my fingers running through his hair.
It didn’t take long until he had fallen asleep. I stroked his head one last time before I leaned over the bed and softly pressed a kiss to his cheek.
“Goodnight, my captain”, I whispered, silently giggling at the nickname I gave him.
I stood up and quietly left the bedroom, not fully closing the door behind me since I feared the clicking of it would wake him. I sneaked through the apartment to the living room and quickly found what I was searching for. After placing the just found blanket on the living room couch, I grabbed a few pillows from the couches and laid down to sleep. It wasn’t the most comfortable, but I could sleep here for a few good hours.
I woke up the next morning as the sunlight started to shine directly into my eyes. I was a little disoriented as I looked around to room remembering what happened yesterday. I stretched after I got up and walked to the kitchen. Since I was sure that Kaeya would have a murder headache as soon as he woke up, I prepared a glass of water and some painkillers I found in one of the kitchen cabinets before I sneaked into his room. He was still sleeping as I arrived so I quietly placed the glass and the pills on the nightstand beside his bed before I sat down on the floor next to the bed. I started to watch him sleep and I had to admit that my heart was really beating faster for this man. I never wanted to admit it before but maybe my crush on him was more than that and had been like this for some time already. Last night really had opened my eyes about how I felt and of course about Kaeya as well. I noticed that he started to move and changed into a kneeling position so I could look at him better. As he opened his eyes still sleepy a small smile appeared as he noticed me.
“Good morning”, he mumbled and moved his arm from under his head towards me.
“Morning, Kaeya. Did you sleep ok?”, I asked and softly grabbed his hand.
“I slept ok. Would have slept better with you though”, he joked with a smile.
“I see you’re back to your old form. I guess the cute and shy Kaeya disappeared from existence again”
I giggled as he rolled his eyes. He must be remembering everything that happened yesterday since his cheeks turned a light pink.
“It is a privilege to see me vulnerable like that, so feel honored. That won’t happen that often”, he explained.
I moved from the floor to the edge of the mattress and sat down as Kaeya sat up on the bed. He instantly held his head and I grabbed the glass and the pills and gave them to him.
“Take these and you’ll feel better”
“Thanks. I really did get drunk for no reason after all. This is my punishment, I guess”, he said laughing before he downed the pills quickly and emptied the glass of water.
“You really did. But there is something for you to look forward to”, I said scooting closer to him.
He tilted his head and looked at me confused. “Promise” I only mouthed silently and watched as his cheeks turned a darker shade of pink. Seeing Kaeya flustered like this was really something I could get used to. He looked away for a second before his gaze landed back on me.
“Can I maybe add a request to the promise?”, he asked and I nodded.
“Sure”
“Can I hug you?”, he asked with the most sincere look I had ever seen on him.
I had to smile at his request. It was such a simple task but it still made my heart beat faster. Before I answered him I had already climbed onto the bed and wrapped my arms around him, burying my face in his chest. I could hear his heartbeat and closed my eyes just taking in his warmth and scent. As I looked up at him, Kaeya had the most beautiful smile on his face I had ever seen. He looked down at me and pulled me up a little bit so both our faces were on the same height.
“Will you please kiss me?”, he asked, his hand moving to my cheek to softly hold it.
“With pleasure”
I connected our lips and almost instantly melted in his arms. The kiss was soft and a bit shy but just as beautiful as I imagined. As we separated both of us had a huge smile on our faces.
“I can’t believe I had to get drunk because of jealousy to be able to make you mine”, he mumbled which made me laugh.
“You could have avoided all that by just asking me instead of assuming things. It would have been way easier. But I have to admit that I wouldn’t want to have missed seeing you get shy as I undressed you. It was a very pleasant sight”, I said and earned a playful hit against my shoulder.
“Don’t remind me. I’m still embarrassed that I couldn’t undress myself”, he complained with a slightly awkward smile on his face.
“I thought it was very amusing. I could get used to that side of yours”, I admitted.
Kaeya lifted one of his brows and looked at me a little bit confused. He then lifted me onto his lap and let his hands rest on the side of my waist as he looked at me.
“You’re mocking me, aren’t you?”, he asked and I shook my head.
“I’m not. You looked really cute with your cheeks all red and shy about me undressing you”, I said while I moved my hands to cup his cheeks.
Kaeya blushed a little bit as I stroked his cheeks. He tightened his grip on my waist a little bit and sighed.
“So you’re telling me I can let me guard down when I’m around you?”
“Of course, only if you are comfortable with it.”, I added and leaned forward to kiss his nose.
He closed his eyes for a second before he pulled me into a tighter embrace than before. He buried his face in my chest while I placed my head on his.
“You have to take care of me from now on”, he mumbled.
“I will. I promise.”, I whispered leaving a soft kiss on his hair.
