Your name is Cronus Ampora, and fuck if you aren't horns over heels in love with your little matesprit.

He's so perfect in every way, the way he moves and talks and laughs and especially the way he kisses you. You were caught so off guard by the sudden burst of kisses and makeouts that you didn't even realize it was still him, and you forgot that 'him' doesn't like moving as fast as you're used to.

And yeah, you know you tend to move a little fast with your relationships, but it feels natural and normal to you and your partners are always cool with it. Not this one though. This one squeaks and panics if you put a hand on his waist, whereas with someone like Damara or Meenah would practically demand it.

You're actually quite nervous about Kankri asking about your past matesprits. You actually haven't had many, most of the people you pail with you don't have any relationship with at all. He knows though, you know he knows how many trolls you've pailed and you're worried he's gonna end up getting upset. But he's not upset now, and that's all that matters to you.

You've watched movies and had dinners and even just relaxed together on his human bed, usually cuddling or spooning and giggling like the little human girls in some of the movies you've seen. Since you kissed him for the first time he's much better about hugs and kisses and such, and he likes it when you peck his cheeks and nose and forehead. You have to admit that you like the blush it earns you, even if he just pulls the neck of his sweater over his face to hide it. His attempts always fail though, because you know that if you lay compliments on him and kiss his lips through the cloth his entire face goes candy red and he can't possibly hide that. And that's a good thing, because his blush is one of the cutest things you've ever seen.

Some days you bring your guitar to his hive and play some songs and chords for him, and he watches in amazement as your skilled and experienced fingers strum the strings. The song you usually play is a melody you dedicated to him because when you played with the notes one day you realized how much the soft and happy tune reminded you of him. You refer to it in your head as "Kankri's Melody" and you play it for him whenever you're there, since he enjoys it so much. You always chuckle because he asks you to play it over and over again without even knowing what it's called, which makes you think it's got an accurate name.

But more than anything else you love cuddling with him and holding him close to your chest as he relaxes in the afternoons. You love stroking and playing with his hair and gently kissing his ear and sometimes you're able to get him to fall asleep, which you're definitely happy about. He stresses all the time and you want him to relax more often, and being the one to help him with that makes you happier than you could ever imagine. You usually leave his hive after he falls asleep, but on your way out you always glance at him and see how adorable he is, curled up comfortably in the big red fuzz of his sweater. Sometimes he has a small blush on his cheeks and almost always a smile, and you can't help but wonder if you caused that. You sure hope you did.


A/N: Yay! Chapter 4! Sorry for the shortness but I'll update it again in like a day or so. Also there will be sexytimes in the next chapter so if you're uncomfortable with reading that (which makes me wonder why you're even looking for M rated Cronkri) you can skip that chapter, even though it's somewhat important to the plot. Just a warning.
