You groaned as you looked at yourself in the mirror. After being discharged from the hospital, you were able to leave with the girls. You were now back on the bus but you still had bandages wrapped around your head.

But what really bothered you was the fact that they had cut your hair.

Ahri and Kai'sa at least took the time to try and make it look nice. It was a comb over style but the sides and back were shaved down.

Y/N: Even after I left the military, the universe still finds a way to make my hair short.

Jinx: I like it.

Eve: I think you look quite handsome.

Kai'sa: I tried my best. You do look younger.

Ahri: It looks good! I missed you having short hair.

Akali: You look like a snack, and mama's hungry~

She was greeted with a pillow to the face, courtesy of the Guinea Pigs.

Mini Akali: <Squeak!>

You just sighed as Totoro jumped on your shoulder and looked at you.

Totoro: <Meow>

You smiled as you scratched his chin.

Y/N: Thanks buddy.

You walked back to the main area of the bus as it drove towards its next destination. You sat down next to Jinx and frowned. She just handed you a beer which you just looked at.

Y/N: It's 8 AM.

Jinx: Yep.

You shrugged and took the beer. You popped it open and took a drink. Ahri leaned over so that she could see you past Jinx.

Ahri: How are you feeling?

Y/N: Thankful that my friend is an ex-special forces agent. Jayce came through and really saved my ass from jail.

Jinx: Yay for corruption.

Ahri: I meant.....

Y/N: I know.

Kai'sa noticed the look on your face. Guilt. She thought about it for a moment before she stood up.

Kai'sa: Actually, can I talk to you?

You looked up and nodded. You stood up and followed her to the back while the others watched.

Once you were in the back area, Akali crossed her arms.

Akali: Are they going to fuck?

Jinx: Oh, they're going to fuck.

Ahri and Eve smacked the two on their heads.

You sat down next to Kai'sa who looked at you with those eyes that told you what was to come.

She was in mother mode.

Kai'sa: What happened? At the bar.

You took a deep breath and shrugged.

Y/N: I don't know.

Kai'sa: Y/N...

Y/N: I really don't. He just said those things and I got mad and he hit me and......I lost it.

You still couldn't really remember what happened. Only bits and pieces of the fight. You couldn't even gather how you won against five guys.

Kai'sa: What you did....it wasn't you. Of course Akali thought it was cool, but Jinx was worried. And that says a lot.

Y/N: I know.

Kai'sa placed a hand on yours.

Kai'sa: And you've been spacing out more lately.

You nodded as you lowered your head.

Y/N: I know.

Kai'sa: Talk to me. To Ahri. To Jinx. Hell, even Totoro. Someone. Whatever is going in up there, it's getting worse. You can't keep pretending that it's not.

You looked at her, but you didn't know what to say.

Rell: Tounge tied?

Y/N: No.

Rell: Then talk.

Y/N: I.....

Kai'sa: Y/N?

Y/N: I...yeah. I'll try that. Just, not right now.

Rell: Then when?

Y/N: Soon.

Kai'sa: You promise?

You nodded.

Rell: Say it.

Y/N: I promise.

Kai'sa smiled. She lifted your head up and kissed your cheek.

Kai'sa: Fine. Then, how about this? When we get to the next stop, we have an entire day to ourselves. No shows, no interviews, nothing. How about we go out?

You looked at her.

Y/N: Like a date?

Kai'sa: Like a date.

You gave it some thought before you nodded.

Y/N: Okay. Sounds good.

The two of you looked at each other and smiled. Maybe this could be fun.

Akali: Y'all fucking or not?!

Ahri: Kali!
------------
You undid the bandages from your head before you dropped them into the trash bin. You looked at the new cut on your head and winced. Could be worse.

And better.

At least you were alive.

And the new hair cut did kinda look good.

Totoro: <Meow>

You looked down at the cat who was staring at you from the ground. You were in the hotel the group will be staying in for the show tomorrow. You were shirtless but you did have on a pair of nice jeans and socks.

Y/N: Daddy is getting ready for a date.

Totoro: <Meow?>

Y/N: Uh, no. Not your mom.

Totoro: <Meow>

Y/N: Can't be a two timer if I'm not in a relationship.

Totoro: <Meow>

Y/N: I'm not arguing with you over this. I'm a grown man. I can make my own choices.

Totoro: <Meow!>

You gasped as Totoro left the bathroom.

Y/N: You didn't mean that!

Totoro: <Meow!>

You watched as he left the room. Kai'sa just sat on the bed confused before she turned to you.

Kai'sa: Um...what was that?

You placed your hands on the sink and lowered your head.

Y/N: A son's disappointment.

Kai'sa: Right. Okay.

She wore a blue skirt with a white shirt tucked in. Her hair was tied up and she wore some makeup, but not much. Hell, Eve and Ahri were the only two that actually wore more than foundation and eyeliner.

Yeah, you knew what that was.

And, as per what seemed to be tradition now, you had a new roommate. Kai'sa herself.

You walked out of the bathroom and over to the bed where you had your shirt laying. Kai'sa watched as you pulled it on before you nodded.

Y/N: Alright. Ready to go?

Kai'sa nodded.

The plan was simple. A movie, some lunch, and a walk around town. Kai'sa wanted to look at some shops, so that was on the agenda as well.

You both left the room and found Ahri cradling Totoro like a baby while Eve and Akali watched the Guinea Pigs host a tea party.

Eve: This is adorable.

Akali: Yeah. No one even noticed that Mini Eve spiked the tea.

Eve: I did.

Jinx sat at the coffee table and held a tea cup of her own.

Mini Ahri: <Squeak?>

Jinx: Yes, please.

Jinx lowered her cup and Mini Ahri poured more tea into it. Jinx then took a sip of it.

Jinx: Sad that the animals get me more smashed than the real thing.

Y/N: Still drinking?

Jinx: Don't judge my life choices, you ass.

Ahri looked up and noticed that you and Kai'sa were dressed up.

Ahri: You guys heading somewhere?

You nodded.

Kai'sa: We're going on a date.

Eve: A date? Hm.

Everyone watched as she grabbed a tea cup of her own.

Eve: Fill it up, Mini Ahri.

Mini Ahri happily complied. Totoro stared you down the entire time.

Totoro: <Meow>

The girls watched as you pointed at him.

Y/N: It's not cheating if there's no one to cheat on!

Totoro: <Meow!>

Y/N: I will spank you!

Ahri: You will not land a hand on our child!

Totoro: <Meow!>

Y/N: That's it!

You rushed towards the couch and leaped over it, casuing Ahri to scream and Totoro to try to escape.
------------
Kai'sa: One large popcorn, please.

Kai'sa ordered the snacks while you paid for them, despite her protest, before she walked back towards you.

Kai'sa: Want butter on it?

Y/N: Sure.

Kai'sa walked over to the pumps and buttered up the popcorn. The two of you walked through the theater with your tickets before you found the right one.

You both walked in and took your seats. To your surpise, no one else was there.

Y/N: Empty theater.

Kai'sa: No one ever likes watching foreign art films.

Y/N: Yeah. They kinda what?

You looked at Kai'sa as she sat down. You hesitated before you sat down as well.

Y/N: This is a foreign art film? Really?

Kai'sa: Yes. French.

What the hell?

The lights dimmed and the movie began to play. You figured there was no harm in it, so you strapped yourself in for the ride.

The first scene started and you found yourself slightly curious about how things would go. You quickly realized that foreign French films were very.....artistic. Sure. Let's use that word.

You watched the screen as the woman began to strip from the robe she was wearing. All while a male in a mask watched her.

You looked over at Kai'sa to see that she was watching the film with eyes of wonder rather than confusion.

You turned back to the screen to see the woman approaching the man seductively, but she stopped and instead lowered herself to her knees. She then lifted her wrists up.

The man stood up and reached behind him where he pulled out a pair of cuffs.

Y/N: So, are these always this....kinky?

Kai'sa just watched the film. You hesitated before you did the same.

The man placed the cuffs on the woman before he placed a hand under her chin. The woman slowly rose to her feet while the man's hand moved down to her neck.

Kai'sa: Submission.

You looked at her while she kept her eyes on the screen.

Kai'sa: To love someone, is to submit to them. For both a man and a woman. That's what this is trying to say.

You raised a brow before you looked back at the screen. The woman reached up and lifted the man's mask up. She then leaned in and kissed him.

Kai'sa: Submitting means to reveal your true self. Your flaws, your past, your regrets, and your fears.

She then looked at you.

Kai'sa: Do you know what that's like?

You turned back to her and nodded.

Y/N: I've been in love before.

Kai'sa: I know. It's why you're the way you are now. Hiding your true self away.

You shrugged.

Y/N: Is that a bad thing?

Kai'sa: To some. But I see it as something else. Whoever you loved, you loved her with all your heart. Did you?

You nodded.

Y/N: I did.

Kai'sa: And did it hurt to lose her?

Y/N: Like hell.

Kai'sa: Because you both submitted to each other. You showed your true self. Your doubts. Your fear. And now it became a regret.

One of the worst regrets of your life. But not because you loved her. Because you lost her.

Kai'sa slowly set her hand over hers as the screen of the two lovers continued to play.

Kai'sa: You're scared to do it again.

Y/N: Sometimes.

Kai'sa: But you're willing to.

Y/N: I would like to.

Kai'sa: Then do it.

You both leaned towards each other as the two lovers kissed.

Y/N: And what if it goes wrong?

Kai'sa: Then you can try again. How many times as it takes.

Y/N: And if I never succeed?

Kai'sa moved closer. You could smell the perfume she had put on. You could feel her breath against your skin as she leaned in to whisper in your ear.

Kai'sa: Isn't it worth trying?

She pulled away before she placed a hand on your cheek. You then leaned in and kissed her.

As the movie went on, you found yourself deepening the kiss.

The film was quickly forgotten.
----------------
You and Kai'sa ended up sitting across from each other at the Thai restaurant Kai'sa had found.

You had ordered a beer while Kai'sa stuck to some tea. To each their own.

Kai'sa: So, what's on your mind?

You shrugged.

Y/N: A lot. But also nothing.

Kai'sa smiled. She had her chin resting on her palm as she looked at you.

Kai'sa: What can you tell me about?

Y/N: Uh....Totoro and me talk.

Kai'sa nodded confused.

Y/N: Like, I actually know what he says. And I can't explain how.

You smiled a bit at how weird it sounds now that you were saying it out loud.

Kai'sa: So, do you actually know what he's saying or...

Y/N: Yeah. It's kinda like, when you rook Spanish in high school. You can't speak it, but you know enough to piece together what someone is saying.

Kai'sa: I actually can speak spanish.

Y/N: Me too. Learned a few languages while I served.

Kai'sa raised a brow.

Kai'sa: Really? How many?

You gave it some thought before you sighed.

Y/N: Let's see. Korean, Chinese, Mongolian, Russian, Polish, German, Japanese, Shuriman, Targonan, Latin, French, and Spanish. Off the top of my head.

Kai'sa nodded, impressed.

Kai'sa: Not bad. Can't say I know Targonan.

Y/N: The S and the F are hard to pronounce.

Kai'sa just smiled. She had such a pretty smile. Hell, she was just beautiful in general.

You honestly couldn't think of the last time you hung around someone like this. You felt so relaxed. Sure, you had Jinx but she was your friend. Your sister.

But Kai'sa was something else entirely.

And you could feel your heart beat faster every time she laughed. Everytime she smiled.
------------
You both walked down the street looking at the shops everywhere. Kai'sa had her arm wrapped around yours and everyone watched as you both passed by.

All thought of the same thing.

What a lovely couple.

Kai'sa: So, you've seen the world, right? Like you traveled with your team?

You nodded.

Y/N: Seen the world twice and then some. Met people from all over. Cultures. Shook hands with some important people, too.

Kai'sa: Really?

You nodded.

Kai'sa: Like who?

Y/N: Some kings. Queens.

Kai'sa just rolled her eyes.

Kai'sa: Course you did.

Y/N: I did.

Kai'sa: Let me guess, you were knighted too.

You nodded.

Y/N: Yes, actually. Got a few medals and titles.

Kai'sa: I believe the medals. Why haven't you shown us them?

You shrugged.

Y/N: I...uh...don't really have them anymore.

Kai'sa: Why not?

Y/N: Sold some. The rest I just locked away in storage.

Kai'sa looked at you in surpise.

Kai'sa: Why?

Y/N: I was....in a bad place. I wasn't thinking straight. Besides that, I decided to put a lot of my stuff away. It wasn't going to do me any good to keep around reminders of what ultimately got everyone around me killed.

Kai'sa understood your logic, but she also thought that you should at least keep some part of your past. You were a hero, at least from what she had gathered.

Kai'sa moved closer to you.

Kai'sa: Well, you're our manager now. Our friend. And soon, you'll be one of our lovers.

You flinched at the word. Lover? Kai'sa noticed this and smiled.

Kai'sa: I'm joking. You won't be a lover. Well, not just a lover.

She stopped walking and instead moved to block your path.

Kai'sa: Once you're able to say you can love one of us, you'll become a partner. Rather it's me, Kali, Eve, or Ahri. You know we love you.

Y/N: Yeah, I do. You all constantly remind me.

Kai'sa: So we're not in any rush. And if you think you need to sleep with all of us....

Y/N: I don't really....

Kai'sa: Then that's fine. At least for me. I doubt the others mind, as well.

You felt your cheeks grow warmer before she moved even closer so that no one else could hear her.

Kai'sa: And if you wish to speed up the process by sleeping with more than one at a time, I'd be happy to help.

You were caught off guard by that before you noticed the teasing smile on her face. She started to laugh at your reaction while you rolled your eyes.

You grabbed her hand and walked ahead while she laughed.

This wasn't such a bad date.

You definitely wouldn't mind another.
