Teemo slowly opened his eyes and took in his surroundings. After a few minutes of confusion did he finally realize he was not in his own house as the sun was shining in from a window. He sat up to look around with squinted eyes as the room was still slightly dark. Teemo could feel a massive headache as he was forced to put his hands on his head as he tried to make it go away some how. He was about to get out of the bed when the bed moved on its own causing Teemo to look to his side suddenly, lying next to him was Tristana. Teemo could see that she was still asleep as her eyes were closed and the soft sound of snoring coming from her. Little by little did it all come back to him until he remembered it all. He couldn't believe that they had slept together but he didn't regret it one bit, he loved her and she loved him. He smiled at her and was happy that he was leaving the League and the military, he could live as close to a normal life as he could, with her, with Tristana.
Teemo lied back down and could only smile at the sleeping face of Tristana as he slowly closed his eyes to go back to sleep. For once he wasn't afraid to sleep as he knew he wasn't alone this time. He had just closed his eyes when he felt Tristana place her arm onto him pulling him closer causing him to open his eyes and come face to face with her beautiful smile and eyes. He could only smile back at her and think, "I could get used to this life."
"Good morning Teemo, how did you sleep?" Tristana held onto her smile the whole time she spoke as she scooted over to be close enough to hug him. Teemo returned the hug and gave her a quick kiss on her forehead.
"I haven't slept like that for a long time, its been a while since I've had some nice dreams," said Teemo as he rolled onto his back as she snuggled against his chest.
"Last night was no dream Teemo," said Tristana with a look on her face that bordered smug and content. Making Teemo give her an accomplished look as he haven't done anything like this in years.
"So do you want to stay in bed a little longer and just enjoy each other's company or do we need to get out of bed?" Teemo stumbled around his own question and was met with a finger to his lips after he finished.
"Shush, don't ruin the moment Teemo." Tristana quickly pulled back her finger with a gasp as she felt a sharp pain run down her hand. Teemo saw it and gently grabbed her hand that was still in its cast and gently kissed it without breaking eye contact with Tristana.
"Last night is still a little foggy from the drinks we had, did... did you tell me if I broke your hand or not?" Teemo carefully placed her hand onto his chest as he asked her with absolute concern.
"No you didn't break it but you did sprain it severely, enough that I had to go get it put in a small hand cast," said Tristana as she closed her eyes and placed her head onto his chest so she could listen to melodic rhythm of his heartbeat going fuh-thump, fuh-thump and feel his warm chest tuft caress her cheek. Teemo was quiet for a moment and was about to speak up when he heard that soft snoring again and smiled as he too was still pretty tired. He closed his eyes and placed his arm over her in a protective way as he slowly drifted off to sleep.
Teemo woke up to the smell of bacon and eggs and sniffed in the sweet aroma as he opened his eyes to a very brighten up room, due to the sun shinning in fully.
He looked about and found that he was alone in the bed and that the room was also empty. He gradually was able to get himself out of the bed and put his pants back on and left the room to follow the fragrance that lingered in the air. It didn't take long to find the source as there wasn't many rooms in the house and turned into the kitchen. Standing over an oven was Tristana wearing a tank top and shorts cooking eggs.
"What time is it?" Teemo walked up behind Tristana and wrapped his arms around her to hug her.
"A little past eleven-o-clock in the morning." Replied Tristana as she tilted her head so that their cheeks were touching. "You hungry? I'm making breakfast right now," said Tristana after she sighed contently and was greeted by a swift kiss on her cheek.
"How about I finish the food and you sit down?" Teemo paused for a moment and stared at her right hand which was still in its cast. "I'm sorry Tristana for hurting you and pushing you away for so long, I was just so scared to let someone get close t..." But he was quickly cut off as Tristana took a piece of bacon and put it his mouth and broke free from his hug.
"Why thank you Teemo for offering to cook and you already apologized to me last night when we had our talk." Tristana walked over to the table and took a seat and smiled at Teemo as he still had a bit of bacon sticking out of his mouth.
Teemo grabbed hold of the cooked strip and took a bite out of it and placed it on the counter as he took over for Tristana and began to finish cooking. After a while did Tristana and Teemo sit across from each other eating while smiling at each other and had the occasional laugh at just staring into each other eyes. After a few minutes did it become awkward for the both of them so Teemo decided to break the silence, "So Tristana how about we head to that restaurant tonight? I did promise that we would go when we made it back here."
"Oh yeah you did! That would be lovely Teemo. But I don't want you to fall behind on your training for the upcoming match. I can't possibly..." And she was cut off by Teemo as he held his hand up and smiled at her.
"I still have a few more days to get used to the blow dart, today is our day and I want to enjoy it before I go back to training," said Teemo as he stared into her eyes and was so fixated on them that he didn't even hear her response.
"Teemo, Teemo, TEEMO!" Tristana had scream his name to get his attention as he jumped up at the loud sound.
"Oh sorry I was just thinking," said Teemo as he shuffled about in his chair as he attempted to avoid the icy glare of her eyes.
"About what, the match?" Tristana harshly said as she took a bite out of her food.
"No, you," said Teemo as he got up and walked over to her and held his hand out to her. Tristana looked at his hand with surprise before she grabbed it and was pulled up out of the chair. She quickly swallowed the food in her mouth as Teemo began to lead her to the living room. She felt her pulse race as he stopped and bowed to her and then grabbed her hand and placed his other hand on her hip and began to dance slowly back and forth with her.
"Teemo I never knew you could dance?" Tristana was astonished at well he was maintaining his composure as she could see him concentrating deeply with each foot placement.
"There's a lot you don't know about me," said Teemo with a sly smirk on his face but continued speaking before Tristana could respond. "So what time would you like to for me to pick you up at for our date?"
Tristana couldn't help but give him a devilish smile as she thought about it. "Hmmm perhaps seven would be nice. Just don't be late or this whole thing might not work out." Tristana pointed to him and herself as she said the final words.
"Trist I want this to work, you have brought happiness back into my life. I will be here at seven and I will not be late." Teemo smiled back at her as he finished his little dance with her.
"I'm still hungry," Said Tristana after a moments pause as they stared into each other eyes causing Teemo to frown. Teemo and Tristana went back to finishing their breakfast before Teemo told Tristana that he would be back for the date and that he wouldn't miss it for the world. Teemo looked back one last time and could see Tristana looking out her window as he headed down the street to get home and prepare for their date. They had agreed that it would be best to wear some very nice clothes that night.
Hours have passed by with Teemo spending the day grooming his fur making sure it wasn't ragged or matted in spots and trimming down the thick patches. He sifted through his closet to find his nicest outfit. It took nearly a hour by itself to find all the pieces he was looking for before he set them out on his bed making sure they weren't wrinkled horrible. Once he was sure they were good enough for the date he quickly hopped into the shower and cleaned himself thoroughly. Once he had dried himself off he began to put his outfit on. He started with the sleek khaki colored pants followed by his collared shirt with cuffs at the ends of the sleeves. The shirt itself was baby blue with dark blue lines running through it to make very small boxes over the entire shirt. After he had buttoned up his shirt and tucked it in he pulled his vest on which was midnight blue and brought out the colors of his outfit very well. His shoes were black with a smooth white top and was finished up with real leather laces.
He took one last look in the mirror before he was satisfied with his appearance before quickly brushing his teeth and combing the fur on top of his head one last time. He made sure to stop by the local flower shop and pick up a bouquet of roses as he headed to Tristana's house. With every step he could feel and hear his heart pound harder and faster in his chest as he drew closer and closer. Before he knew it he was once again standing at her doorstep and with a quick look at his watch he could see that it was 6:53, he made it in time. Teemo had a horse drawn carriage scheduled to show up at 7:00 pm to take them to dinner and could actually see it heading down the street. With a quick succession of taps on the door he waited for a few seconds before he heard a voice call out from inside.
"Teemo is that you?" Called Tristana from the other side of the door.
"Yes it's me Tristana." Teemo called back to her and was met with silence for about a minute before the door opened up. Teemo was completely stunned by the figure standing in front of him.
Tristana was her hair brushed and was not all over the place. She had a very bright shade of red of lipstick on that matched her dress. Her dress was a one piece deal but it was so much more. It was a beautiful scarlet color and seem to dazzle in the light despite no gems or stones embedded in it. It had a single strap go over her right shoulder leaving her left shoulder bare. The "neck" of the dress crossed her chest that was just below the collarbone showing off her neck and uppermost part of her chest without revealing too much. The dress's skirt portion was split down her left side showing off her leg leaving the whole dress looking as though it was crooked yet belonged on her as it complimented her figure very well. Teemo noticed that she was wearing a gold necklace with a large, exquisite sapphire sitting in the center of it. Teemo just couldn't believe how beautiful she was and how he was lucky enough to be apart of her life.
"Trist... you're gorgeous, I mean that dress and the necklace!" Teemo stammered out his words as he held out the flowers for her. Tristana smiled as she took the flowers and smelled them.
"These smell wonderful Teemo, thank you very much. By the way you look handsome," said Tristana as she looked him up and down with a look in her eye. She looked past him to see the carriage pull up and looked back at him with a smile on her face.
"Well lets be on our way," said Teemo as he held out his arm for Tristana to hook her own arm around, which she did. They spent the majority of the time on the ride to the restaurant complimenting each other's outfits. Nearly twenty minutes have passed by when they finally arrived with Teemo helping Tristana down the steps.
Once she reached the ground Teemo pulled a gold coin and handed it to the driver and thanked him for the ride.
Teemo led Tristana to the front of the fancy restaurant and stopped at the waiter who greeted them. "Hello, ahh Teemo we've been waiting for you and Tristana as well. Please follow me," said the waiter as he led them inside and to a table for two in the center of the restaurant. Teemo pulled Tristana's chair out for her and pushed her in before he took his seat across from her. Before either of them could say anything a different waiter came up to their table.
"Hello, my name is Lukas and I will be your waiter for the night. What would you like to drink?" Lukas had a very friendly smile on his face as he talked to them.
"We would like your finest wine please." Tristana said quickly making Teemo raise his eyebrow with interest.
"Ah yes excellent choice and I will return with your bottle momentarily," said Lukas as he wrote down the drink on his note pad and left.
"Wine?" Was all Teemo asked as he looked at her quizzically.
"Yes to help us relax a bit and enjoy the night. I mean it is a date after all, lets enjoy it." Tristana had her head in her hands along with Teemo as they gazed dreamily into each other's eyes. After a few seconds Teemo was the first to break eye contact as he picked up his menu and began to look through it. Tristana quickly picked hers up and also started to look through it. It took a couple of minutes before the waiter returned with their wine and asked if they were ready to order. Teemo ordered the steak with asparagus and sautéed mushrooms on top of the steak with mash potatoes with garlic bits mixed in. Tristana ordered the lobster with steamed vegetables and onion and celery soup with a hint of lemon juice topping every thing.
The night went by amazingly as they talked about old league matches, friends, family, jokes and the occasional bits of gossip. "Teemo have you heard what they say about Ziggs?" Tristana asked with a over the top whisper as the wine bottle they have been sharing all night was empty.
"What about *hic* Ziggs?" Teemo stumbled on the words as he was interested in what she had to say.
"I heard from a friend who heard from *hic* another *hic* friend that he is..." She paused to look around real quick to make sure no one was within ear shot. "I heard he is gay," said Tristana as she whispered to him and giggling quickly afterwards.
"No way?!" Teemo was shocked to hear such rumors about Ziggs existed.
"Yeah *hic* I was surprised to hear about *hic* it as well. Well I had such a wonderful night Teemo, lets head home." Tristana suddenly stood up and began to stumble towards the exit. Teemo quickly pulled out a handful of gold coins and placed them on the table, he knew he over payed by a very large margin but he didn't care. He followed Tristana out of the restaurant and began to lead her back to her house as he made sure she wasn't going to fall flat on her face. It was a long walk that took nearly fourty minutes to make it to Tristana's house. By the time they had made it the cool night air had sobered them both up a little bit giving them both a chance to think clearly.
"Tonight was wonderful Teemo. I had a great time! Though I wish this night won't end so quickly." Tristana held the door open as she spoke the last words and was standing slightly out of the way creating a path for Teemo.
"I don't want this to end either Tristana, I would like to spend some more time with you," said Teemo as he walked into her house while reaching into his back pocket trying to find what he had bought earlier that day. No sooner had the door closed was Tristana kissing Teemo on the lips and caressing his body. Teemo returned the attack viciously as he continued to search his pockets as he traced his fingers through her hair. After nearly a minute of kissing did he finally break the kiss as he finally found it, he pulled it from his pocket and held it up between the two.
"Hmmm Teemo is that what I think it is?" Tristana asked with a growl as she began to unbutton his vest.
"Yes, Tristana, yes it is," said Teemo as he slowly pulled the strap off of her shoulder.
"Someone had the whole night planned out," said Tristana before kissing him again cutting of what he was going to say.
((((Author's Notes))))
Teemo has woken up in Tristana's house apparently having sex with her last night.
He doesn't mind and neither does Tristana as they now both want to be with each other as they plan to have a date THAT night.
I wanted to do more with the date itself but my goodness it was tough for me to do this, romantic dates are just not my thing unfortunately
every time I tried to write the entire date it became super awkward or bland which was a no go.
And as always please have a great weekend and I will see you in a few weeks!
