Lesbian/Asexual Solidarity!

if you could interpret this gif into luisa just getting mega snuggled by the reader <33

Absolutely!

Pepa had, unfortunately, done quite a bit of ‘letting it go’ over the past week during some hard conversations with Abuela. The conversation’s needed to happen, no two ways about it. But being soaked after less than ten minutes outside wasn’t fun either.

You had insisted on following Luisa through her day, helping in whatever way you could with the various chores. One thing you were adept at was clearing the drains in the streets of debris like sticks and some errant pieces of clothing so that the water would drain more effectively. By the time you had gotten home the cold was starting to seep in and your body was starting to stiffen.

You insisted that Luisa get a bath first, effectively hiding how cold you were getting. She argued for a minute, but eventually let you nudge her toward the bathroom. You stood in the middle of her redecorated room. There was still the training course and the weights for her workouts, but her bed was newly covered with an abundance of pink and purple bedding. Her closet had been repainted from a grey color to purple with pink accents. You admired the amount of work it had taken to make her room better when you felt a set of lips brush your clammy face.

“Your turn.” She said, pushing you to the bathroom. You stood for a long time letting the hot water wash away the cold, or most of it anyway, before drying off and pulling on new clothes. Luisa lay back on her bed, book in hand. You smiled and grabbed a blanket from the end of the bed, wrapping it around yourself before resting your head on her chest.

“What are you reading?” You asked, humming softly as one of her hands started to play with your hair.

“Collection of myths from India.” Luisa said, glancing down at your face. Her brows furrowed in concern. “Are you still cold?”

“No.” You said. And then you shivered.

“No, you’re not cold, you’re freezing?” Luisa asked, a little bit of sarcasm in her tone. She shook her head and put her book to the side. She lifted you onto her chest, her arms resting on top of you. You snuggled into her warmth, sighing softly.

“Better?” She asked, kissing the top of your head.

“Mmhmm.” You said, starting to feel a little sleepy.

“D’you want me to read to you?”

“Mmhmm.”

“As you wish.” She whispered, before picking her book up and starting at the beginning.

Life is Strange: True Colors

Your date

Luisa x female reader

It has been at least a day since your meeting also you have a date today. Same place it was yesterday well at 12 o’clock. Right now it was eleven You wanted to get some flowers for Luisa.

But one thing you didn’t know was what was her favorite flower.

You walked up the hill, walking to Casita. You saw Isabela halfway there. “Ah. Y/n!” Isabela said. You turned and had an idea. “Isabela!” You said walking over to her.

Isabela gave you a hug as well you returned it. “So you have a date today?” Isabela said making your eyes widen. “How do you know?” You questioned. “Well, a little birdie told me,” Isabela said.

Dolores. Of course. “Well, I was wondering. Since you’re Luisa’s big sister, that you knew what flower Luisa likes.” You asked nervously fidgeting with your hands.

“Well a Poppy well do good. For starters.” Isbela said as she formed a flower for you to take. You spent at least 20 minutes here, so might as well start walking to your destination.

You thanked Isabela and walked your separate ways. You sighed as you walked, you saw Luisa already there. “Oh, sorry I’m late? Honestly I was checking the time on the way this way.” You said.

Luisa chuckled. “No you’re good. You came early then I expected. I got a brake earlier.”

You sat down with the flower behind your back. “Watcha hiding?” She asked as she looked at you. You nervously smiled at her. “Well, since this is a date. I wanted to bring a little something.” You said.

Luisa had a confused look causing you to giggle. “Here.” You said as you tucked the flower in Luisa’s hair. “A poppy” You said as she blushed.

“How do you know I liked poppys?” She asked you. “A certain someone talked me.” You said as you examined the part you tucked the flower.

You felt her arms around your torso. You looked down at her to notice she was looking up at you. “You’re beautiful” Luisa said making you blush. “I know” You giggled making her smile.

“And so are you.” You told Luisa as you cupped her face. “I-I brought some food” Luisa said breaking eye contact.

“Oh you did?” You asked. Luisa nodded and you felt her arms leave your hips. She grabbed a nearby picnic basket. “I made some of the food in there before everyone started calling me.” Luisa said.

You stared in awe as she took out some of the picnic basket, they looked delicious. “You made this?” You asked. Luisa smiled, “Yeah.” Luisa held up a Arepas De Queso.

You took a bite. You moaned at the taste. It was good! “That was good.” You said with your mouth full. Luisa chuckled.

“Thank you for the food Luisa.” You said. Luisa nodded. “I’m sorry I didn’t get anything for you Y/n” She said as she looked at you. “Oh it’s alright.”

You moved closer to her. “How was your day?” You asked Luisa. “It was good.” Luisa said as she ate another arepas de queso.

“How about you?” She asked you. “It was great. But I didn’t really do anything though.” You chuckled.

Luisa smiled as she looked at you. You stared into her hazel eyes. “Hey love-birds!” Someone yelled from behind a house. “Just kiss already!” A kid voice sounded most likely Antonio.

You both looked that way to notice a few heads popping out from behind the house they were hiding behind.

You blushed, as you looked at the kids. “C’mon!” One yelled.

Luisa looked at you. “Gotta give the kids what they want.” She said as she cupped your face and leaned in close. Her breath was soft against your lips.

A kiss on the first date?!

Her lips pressed against yours. Your eyes widen with shock but soon after you closed them. You took this opportunity to take over the kiss. You bit her lips making her moan lightly.

You shoved your tongue inside her mouth making her shocked. You could barely hear the children cheering until it was interrupted by someone saying “leave them alone” Most likely Luisa’s father.

Does the whole town know you both are on a date?

As you broke the kiss, you heard someone whistle. Making you both blush as you saw who it was. Luisa’s father had taken a picture of you both and had walked off.

Quietly you groaned as you felt Luisa’s grip tighten on your hips.

“Luisa can you loosen your grip on my hips.” You asked. Luisa let go quickly and started apologizing to you.

“Sometimes I forget how strong I am” She said sheepishly rubbing the back of her neck.

“It’s okay, mi amor” You said to her pulling her into another kiss.

“Oh, crap. I gotta go.” You said as you broke the kiss again making Luisa whine.

You giggled as got up from Luisa’s lap. “I had fun, maybe we can do this some other time again?” You asked. “Yeah, of course amor” She said. “Maybe in two days. Tomorrow I’m going to be loaded with a lot of chores.” You said.

Luisa nodded as she looked at you. “Okay. I’ll come by to pick you up, bye Y/n” Luisa said. You chuckled as you ran off back to your house.

Your father giving you a deadpan look. “Did you do your chores?” He asked. You nodded. “Of course, I did. I always do them before I leave.” His deadpan look softed.

“Oh, Antonio told me that you guys kissed.” Your mama yelled from the kitchen. You blushed and whined.

“Hey, it natural.” You father said laughing as he pulled your mother in for a kiss.

“Your going to burn the food!” You yelled as you stirred the food from them.

At least you didn’t run into Victornia today.

A knock came on your door, you walked over to open it. “Y/n l/n?” the person said.

“Yes, that’s me” You said.

“Here, this is for you.” The man said giving you the note and rushed off.

“What does it say?” Your parents asked.

You gasped and covered your mouth. Tears welled in the corner of you eyes. “n-no. This can’t be” You said as you rushed to your room. “Mija!?” Both of your parents said. On the way to your room. You dropped the letter which also had a picture in it.

Imagine a girl sitting between your legs, leaning against you as you run your fingers through her hair, and watch a mindless movie, which ends with you both asleep and cuddled up together

02﹐🦋﹢﹒mi amor !? . summary: "what kind of date would they take you on for valentines day?"

dolores would likely prefer to stay inside and spend some quality time instead. don't get me wrong, she'd love to bring you out on a fancy special date - perfect for the most special person in her life, you. but she wants to be alone with you, to focus on you. she wants to mute the world just for you, even for a short moment.

you melted into dolores' touch as she lovingly runs her fingers through the knots in your hair. calming, romantic music played through your shared earphones as the long forgotten movie acted as background noise. moments like these were what she treasured the most, sure, it isn't your usual valentines day date. but it's enough. "are you hungry?" she whispered softly into your ear after taking out the earbud, pausing the movie and the music on her phone. "sort of," you snuggled into her chest, "but we can stay here for a bit."

isabela would probably organize a cutesy picnic date in a beautiful private gazebo or something like that. i see her as the type to want it simple, but also aesthetic, you get me? she'd definitely ask you to dance with her, oh! and flowers aren't a problem, she'll have a whole bundle of all your favorites!

isabela chuckled to herself as she watched you stumble on your feet to keep up with her. "how far is it?" you asked, careful with every step you take as your girlfriend had taken the initiative of blind-folding you for her special surprise. "it's close, watch your steps!" and as if she jinxed it, you inconveniently tripped on the steps of the gazebo, not like you knew what you tripped over. thankfully, your girlfriend very graciously caught you in her arms and twirled you around, swiftly sliding the blind-fold off of your face to reveal her valentines gift. "happy valentines, amor."

luisa would be similar to dolores. working a lot gets overwhelming and she'd probably want to avoid that on special occasions. she'll likely ask her mom to help her prepare dinner, then you two just have a romantic dinner date in like, a garden isabela set up for you two or something.

you grinned from ear to ear as luisa brought over your plates and drinks. you two were seated in the middle of a flower garden the isabela had made earlier, specifically for you two. for luisa, she's anxious about this. what if it isn't enough for you? but for you, the fact she went through this much effort just for the two of you? your heart swells in a good way. she sat across you, shoulders tense until she feels your significantly smaller hand on hers. "happy valentines day."

mirabel would probably take you somewhere festive, like a town fair! you two would sit on a grassy hill and admire the beautiful stars and sway to the upbeat music. when you two get hungry you just wander around the booths and stalls, maybe even dance to the music?

mirabel leaned into your shoulder as she stared up at you with a look of admiration, adoration. you're too busy admiring the stars scattered across the midnight sky, but she subtly pecks your knuckles and intertwines your pinkies. you look down at her, grinning and pulling her closer. "hey," you pause, gesturing to the town fair. "you wanna go stuff our mouths full of food and dance until the night wastes away?" you finished, chuckling as mirabel immediately jumps up and pulls you up with her. "let's go!"

camilo would drag you to somewhere like an amusement park or an arcade. he'd have a hand around your waist or shoulder almost the entire time, it's a big place with lots of crowds! he lets you win in games, lets you choose the rides, etc. very fun:)

camilo put in another quarter, determined to win you that dinosaur plush while you were struggling to keep a hold of all the other stuffed animals he's already won. "cami- cami!" you dropped the dozens of stuff animals onto a clean nearby table, keeping an eye on them. "cami you- you don't need to get it?" "no no let me get it." "but—" "shh, anything for you mariposa." "that's sweet but you're looting the whole machine—" "let the children cry."

Mirabel

Your special spot would be the river (where she ran away to)

You would catch butterflies in jars just to left them go after

Mirabel sometimes picks you up if you can’t reach

It makes you really embarrassed which makes her laugh

——————————————————————————

Genre: fluff

You stood on your tiptoes, leaning forward over the river. “Almost..almo-”

*SPLASH*

Your skirt weighed you down as you sat in the shallow water trying to stand. 

“Y/N?!” Mirabel yelled rushing over to help you up. She tried to hold in her laugher but failed, your usually tamed hair became frizzy, you sat in the water stunned. You pouted slightly turning red from embarrassment. You grabbed Mirabel’s hand pulling her into the water with you. Mirabel’s teal colorful skirt turned darker in the water. You both now sat across from each other, both looking down in an awkward silence. You looked up to see Mirabel staring at you. Both darting away from each other’s eyes. The silence was soon broken when you burst out laughing, the awkwardness taking over you. Mirabel paused, then joined you, laughing along. You stood, reaching your hand out for her. She took it and pulled you after her, grabbing her cross bag as you ran back to the Casita to change, hand in hand.

Isabela

PLANT MOM X PLANT PARENT AHHHH

Most of the flowers in her room are your favorite/ones that remind her of you.

She helped you start a garden and come over to hang out wit you to water and tend to the plants

——————————————————————————

Genre: fluff

As you approached the stairs of the casita the doors opened quickly. “¡Hola, Casita!” You looked up to see a window creak, resembling a wave from the magical house. You smiled and walked in. 

“Ah! Y/n.” Julieta called from the kitchen, peeking around the wall. “Hi! How are you, Tia Juli?” Julieta’s smiled faded slightly, inspecting your hand noticing the band-aid wrapped tightly around your finger. She whipped around and grabbed an arepa off of a plate. “What happened, mija?” She asked as you bit into the food. You swallowed, “Just a thrown from a rose in my garden. Isabela helped me plant it.” Julieta’s smile returned. “Speaking of Isa, go upstairs,” she took a rag off her shoulder and wiped her hands. “She’s waiting for you.” She said turning back to the kitchen stove. You nodded and rushed out a quick thank you. Once you got to Isabela’s door you knocked three times. You heard a small gasp inside the room and footsteps approaching the door. The nob turned and Isa pulled you into a hug. You wrapped your arms around her, “Well hello to you too..” You smirked. “Hi.” She said giggling. She pulled you over to a small sprout. You stared at it inspecting to small thing. “What is it?” you said look up at Isa with a smile. “Watch.” She said crouching down The sapling twitched growing wider and wider, longer and longer. You looked up at the cherry blossom tree standing high above you. “Whoa..” You were stunned. You had always wanted to see a cherry blossom tree up close. Columbia didn’t have those and you had only seen pictures or paintings of them. “Isa..” She grabbed you, growing vines around you both, lifting you into the tree, holding your hands “this is..” Her head moved to your shoulders leaning onto you. “This is beautiful.” After a while of talking, playing with each others hair, and talking about your garden, the two of you went up the the roof. She leans against you once more, putting her head on your shoulder.  The sky was a mix of pink, orange and yellow. The sun was going down now, and tomorrow you’d venture with Isabela again.

Luisa

Luisa will scoop you up put you on her shoulder or her back or bridal style

She loves holding you sm its adorable

Luisa often overworks and you comfort her after

——————————————————————————

Genre: fluff + slight angst

Luisa slammed her door as soon as she entered, ready to flop down on her bed. She had a very long day. She had to reroute the river for the 3rd time this week, then she had to move a couple of trees and carry them to the valley, then she brought some runaway donkeys back to their pen. She let out a tired sigh.

 “Luisa?”

She jumped in surprise as you started walking towards her. “Y/n! I uhm- sorry! I wasn’t expect you to- It just- I didn’t know you were-”

You stood on your tiptoes and pecked her on the lips trying to end her mindless rambling. Her face turned red, her hand reaching up to her lips in shock “..here.” She flushed, pulling you into a tight hug. “Lu, you need to relax. Nobody doubts your strength. You’re the strongest person I know.” You both sat on Luisa’s bed. You grabbed her hand and squeezed it tightly. “Y/n..” This caught your attention, you looked up at her. “..You’re the nicest, most caring person in the world.”

My Arcane masterlist

━─━─━━─━「🚬」━━─━─━─━

Strange sounds slowly stirred you awake, the squeak from the old mattress being the final noise to make you blink eyes open, squinting at the little light coming from the corner of the room, the faint pink from tubes of Shimmer kept on a shelf.

It took you a bit to realize what was making those odd noises, assuming it had just been part of the dream you forgot about the moment you woke up but after a couple of seconds of listening to what sounded like heavy breathing and soft grunting, you rolled over to take a look at Sevika who was at your side -- looking asleep but far from having a peaceful rest from the way her face contorted.

Narrowing eyes to try and focus on her features under the glow of the drug, you placed a hand on her cheek, the one with a big scar with bright lines of blue that seemed to pulsate to the rhythm of her heart-beat, erratic and constant. It worried you just how sweaty her skin was and how much every bit of it seemed to be twitching under your palm...but above all, it worried you how she whimpered…

It sounded like she was hurting…

Your heart ached, heavy with concern and sympathy for what you thought was her fighting against a nightmare, unable to help her besides caressing her cheek and hoping she would calm down.

Something seemed wrong, however -- the way her body jerked didn't seem normal and she suddenly shot up with a choked gasp, hunching over and touching at the where her arm used to be, the left one that got blown-up in the same explosion that scarred all the side of her body and left her with those ominous azure scars…

Sevika panted heavily, like she couldn't breathe...and it hurt you seeing her like that, clutching the stub of a lost arm, trying to reach and touch something that wasn't there anymore…

"Sev--", you barely got time to finish calling her when she stood up from the bed, turning back on you and stumbling across the room, almost falling on the way to the shelves glowing strong pink.

You pushed yourself up and quickly chased after her, watching the woman slump over against the wall, hand searching for Shimmer, trembling and dropping a tube, spilling it all over the floor with a bright glow and a loud sizzle.

"Fuck!", she groaned, banging fist on the wall.

"Sevika! What's wrong?", you moved closer, avoiding the puddle on the floor, finding the pink helped you see where you were going a bit better.

"Don't touch me!", she barked, making you stop in your tracks for a second but you knew something was wrong and she was trying to hide it from you.

"Sev...it's okay…", you reached out, touching her bare shoulder, her skin incredibly hot and damp.

She tensed up incredibly bad at your touch, letting out a sharp exhale, feeling far too aware of how sensitive her body was. You saw her shaky hand search for the left arm again and then fingers dig into the blue on her ribs, scratching furiously at the scars that seemed to itch. Quickly you wrapped your hands around a wrist and made her stop with a pull of the arm before she broke through skin.

"Stop, you're going to hurt yourself…", you scolded, feeling her pull the arm from you but let it drop to the side, clenching and stretching fingers to hold back the urge to touch her scars. "Sevika, what's wrong, baby?", you softened your tone and took a step closer, looking at the glowing stub.

You vaguely remember a conversation she had with Silco about finding a solution for the lost arm, something about a person named Smeech that would come visit them to make an offer. Until then she was given tube after tube of Shimmer to keep the fresh wounds from deteriorating and losing all sensation in the nerves but you hated seeing her use that shit -- she always jerked and sounded to be in pain and even though she always told you to go somewhere else, you stuck around and heard her through the walls, trying to muffle screams.

"Nothing...go back to bed…", she hated being seen as weak and being given pity and you knew it wasn't easy for her to get rid of old habits but you were hoping being together with her for a bit now would have shown her you could be trusted.

Backing down wasn't something you would do, however -- you knew it would take some effort and pushing her a bit to get her to open up to you.

She'd done that before.

You needed to be patient and give her time while showing you would be there for her, comforting in a less vocal way because she wasn't the type to be overly vocal about any of her personal stuff…

Hating the idea of her shoving Shimmer into her body in such a state, you refused to take another tube and merely took her hand, caressing over a set of busted knuckles, trying to get her to look at you. She avoided your gaze but that was ok, you would wait and keep doting on her warm hand.

"I'm not going anywhere, you know that.", you spoke softly but firmly enough for her to snort.

"Yeah, you're stubborn as fuck sometimes…,", her voice sounded pained and you could feel her hand squeezing yours. It made you wonder if it was her way of fighting the urge to touch her wounds or if it was her body's way of begging for the pink drug.

That shit was addictive and you knew how it could mess someone up if used too often. You didn't like the thought of her becoming like those beggars in the sketchiest part of town you'd seen while out on errands for Silco. She never seemed bothered by their presence but you remembered how hard she tried to avoid Shimmer after coming back, only to succumb a few hours later due to intense pain.

You couldn't judge her or any of those addicts for what they were going through because you knew in similar situations you would have been there too but you just happened to be lucky to have Sevika keep you away from it, her overly protective nature something that kept you closer since childhood.

Of course...when it came to her being protected then that was a different story. She would never admit needing help, never accepting it unless it was absolutely necessary and even then wanted to do everything herself and be independent…

That was why you had to keep trying…

Eventually she would let you help her…

"Sounds like projecting to me…", you chuckled softly, feeling her hand relax a bit and body turn a bit for you to see a bit of her face, gray eyes looking towards the shelves. Quieting your voice, you spoke;"How about we sit down for now and if you really need it, I'll give you a boost?", raising her hand to give those knuckles a few kisses.

Sevika chewed on her lip for a couple of seconds, studying the bright color in the tubes before giving you a short nod, letting you lead her back to bed so she could sit down while you crawled closer to press yourself up against her back. Bare and hot, sweaty and sticky, you wrapped your arms around her neck and urged her to rest against your chest.

"Do you want to tell me what's up?", you asked, kissing the back of her neck where the loose hair couldn't reach. It was getting long enough for her to put it in a bun. You thought she looked better like this -- with her nice, dark hair hanging freely.

Sevika groaned as an answer which was better than being completely silent. You chuckled and pressed your cheek to her shoulder, lowering an arm to caress hers, massaging the muscle softly, rubbing at her collarbones, stopping on her chest.

For a moment you looked at the scarred stub, wondering if she would be upset if you tried to touch it. You never tried before and you knew she hated when you looked at it for too long, though you weren't sure why. Something told you she thought you were pitying her… But you never felt pity because you respected her decision to fight for her ideals even if that meant sacrificing herself to save Silco...or you if you had been the one in that spot when the explosion went off… Even that bit of sadness turned to pride at seeing how well she managed to do her usual things with just one arm because you always knew she was capable of doing anything she wanted… You knew she'd never respect you enough to allow you to be this close if you saw her as someone lesser…

It didn't take away the fact you wanted to touch it just like any other part of her body because you didn't see it any differently but were afraid it would make her uncomfortable, like an invasion of personal space and she'd go back into her bubble you tried so hard to pull her out of all your life...

Slowly you squirmed a bit closer, kissing one shoulder and then the back of her neck, tracing lips to the other, kissing where the flesh neared its end, watching how Sevika would respond. You felt her tense and inhale audibly but not pull away. It made you smile softly, kissing the scarred skin.

"Why...are you doing that…?", it was mumbled in a bit of incoherent manner but you understood it enough to raise your head and hug her chest.

"Because I love you…", you spoke, the honesty in your voice making the woman slouch a bit as if to protect herself from the comfort you offered. She often did that on her bad days...willingly deprive herself of affection. It happened before the factory incident and you were sure it would be a constant until your relationship was a bit more developed.

Romance for her was...a challenge…

Sevika groaned as a response, something you had gotten used to hearing when it came to you openly showing her affection. It used to bother you at first, feeling as if you were unwanted...but then you realized it had nothing to do with you. It was just how she protected herself from getting hurt and though you never once thought about taking advantage of her in any way, understood life had shaped her differently from how it shaped you…

But slowly you saw her open up to you...saw her lean a bit more into your touches, stay longer in bed with you in the morning, touch you casually when others were around, always a bit timidly…

You only noticed her trying to close herself off to you a bit more after the incident and you were sure you knew the reason why -- losing a limb, a part of herself, must be incredibly hard. She might not show it around others, not even you, feeling like she needed to appear strong and unbothered, hating the thought of others pitying her...but you knew it hurt. Not just the loss of an arm, the loss of power, control and agency, the sensitive nerves on that scarred chunk of flesh that she was still trying to remind herself was not a full arm anymore...but feeling unwhole and not knowing how to cope…

It hurt seeing her like that, so defeated...but you knew your pain was nothing compared to how she was feeling and so, all you could do was try to offer some affection, support and kindness…

"I mean it, Sev…", you insisted, pressing a kiss to where blue scars began, making sure to avoid the more sensitive part where the wound was worse.

Sevika huffed and tensed up a little, feeling your fingers lightly massage her shoulders, one hand applying gentle pressure to the scars, something you found could help her relax. You didn't know why but it must have had something to do with the nerves on the left side of her body. Always careful not to touch too hard or too much, you tended to her shoulder and then switched attention to ribs, side of her body and then back up again, watching her form slouch a bit and torso start to loosen up.

"Are you just saying that because of what happened? I don't need you to feel sorry for me. I don't need sympathy.", her tone wasn't venomous but there was a certain roughness to her words that made your hands stop with a little sigh.

"Do you think that poorly of me, Sev?", you kissed the back of her neck and crawled onto her lap to take a proper look at her face. She looked tired.

"...no.", Sevika lowered her gaze to you, the blue of her scars and the pink from the Shimmer made her look intimidating. More than usual...but you still wrapped your arms around her neck and gave that marred side of her face a few loving kisses.

She never really pushed you away whenever you got close like this...not physically, at least. You could tell she wanted to be touched even if her often sour-looking face said otherwise. She used to be a more joyful person as a child...you missed that part of her sometimes...but deep down, you knew it was still there, waiting for the right person, something you were still trying to figure out if you were because despite being friends for years, it felt like a relationship was something new to her.

A meaningful relationship, that is…

"I…", she started, blinking down at you, the warmth of her hand touching your side, keeping you secure in her lap. "I never wanted this for you.", her words caught you by surprise, pulling a confused little hum from you as your lips left her cheek so you could meet with her grey eyes.

"I always wanted more for you. For us. More than this. This rotten city…", Sevika sighed, her eyes on the pink drug for a few seconds. "You deserve better than this. Good food. Nice clothes. A pretty house with a garden. Not this old room...having to run errands for dangerous people…", her words were filled with melancholy and disappointment.

Did she feel like she had failed you?

You remembered how as a child you thought Piltover was the place of your dreams and how she promised to take you there so you wouldn't have to fight to survive in the undercity...but that was an idealistic thought in the mind of a kid who never knew better...it really didn't matter now.

You were happy with what you had.

"I was supposed to take care of you…", she lowered her gaze and the touch on your side felt weaker. You pushed closer and took her cheeks into your palms, caressing over them with your thumbs, pressing your forehead against hers.

Don't pull away, please -- you thought.

"Do you remember that time you took those cans of dried peaches from that guy with the snake tattoo on his face? The guy who fell on his ass when slipped on mud trying to chase you?", you smiled, feeling her relax a bit under your body.

"You ate so much that night you couldn't sleep because you kept whining that your 'tummy hurt'.", she chuckled lightly, a soft sound that made you press a kiss to her forehead, down to her nose.

"You stayed up all night trying to comfort me even though you were tired...", you caressed Sevika's cheeks again, moving back to look into her eyes, finding they sparkled a little, full of...something.

"You were crying…", she murmured.

"I think that's when I started to like you…", you whispered, watching her eyes widen a bit before she closed them with a sigh, holding you again.

"Are you going to say you're happy with how things are now? That you don't want more?", she asked, her calloused fingers caressing your skin.

"I'm happy that I can be with you.", you smiled.

Sevika frowned, "That's not what I asked."
