Rumor Has It
Author's Note: Hello and welcome to my second Genshin Impact story, this time more lighthearted and less serious as the first one. So I hope you enjoy, I don't know if I'll post more for this fandom but we'll see, I had a blast writing this.
Warning: Heavy use of sex jokes and cursing and well...you'll understand the T rating once you see it.
This is unbeta'd so all mistakes are mine and I own nothing but the plot.
I hope you enjoy.

"Is it true Acting Grandmaster Jean and Master Diluc are dating?"
"That's what I heard, they're supposedly having secret rendezvous at the nearby inn"
"Oooooh, sounds scandalous"
"I know right? Who knew Acting Grandmaster Jean would be so daring"
Kaeya felt his head snapped at the mention of those words, he gazed at the two female Knights as they passed him in the Ordo Favonius's courtyard. He felt a grin slowly creep on his face, it was a little fun to hear such rumors of his superior and his own brother flying around sometimes. An insatiable curiosity finally overtook him, a trait Diluc hated about him the worst, before approaching the two women.
"Morning ladies", he greeted the two guards as he walked up to them.
"Si-Sir Kaeye, good morning", one of them replied, a little flustered at his sudden appearance.
"Mo-morning Sir", the other replied, with similar surprise.
"So what is this about a rumor?", he asked, with his usual cool bravado. "Something about Acting Grandmaster Jean and Master Diluc?".
The two women looked at each other, admittedly nervous over having to tell their superior a very scandalous rumor. Especially one that involves two important people in his life, but Kaeye gave him his signature easy going smile, almost reassuring them he had no ulterior motives. Finally, the guard on the right sighed before replying.
"We heard that Acting Grandmaster Jean was having secret rendezvous meetings with Master Diluc and that they were in a secret relationship", she replied.
"Oh? Sounds scandalous", he repeated their words which embarrassed them even more. "Wherever did that idea come from?".
"Apparently someone saw them entering an inn together but left separately", she answered. "And-and…they've been seen around the city together".
"Yeah and I've seen Master Diluc near her house plenty of times", the other one spoke up.
"Did you ever see him enter?", he asked her, letting his smile drop.
She looked down on the ground, "No…I've mostly seen him window shopping around that area".
Kaeya sighed before turning his attention to the other one, "And this rumor about them being seen in an inn? Is there any basis to this?".
The two looked at each other before she looked back at him and shook her head.
"No, I just overheard some of the other Knights talking about last night…", she replied.
"So it's all just hearsay and assumptions?", he concluded and the two looked away in embarrassment, realizing the weight of their mistakes. "Look, I'm not mad at you two for believing it, I just don't want that getting out and spreading around the city. Acting Grandmaster Jean already has a lot on her plate and a baseless rumor about some secret relationship isn't going to help things, understand?".
"Yes sir"
"We understand Sir Kaeya, we're sorry".
Kaeya smiled once more, wanting to bring back the easy going atmosphere around them and put his hands on his hips.
"It's fine, just don't speak about it anymore", he reminded them. "Gods forbid if Grandmaster Jean hears about it, or even worse, her sister".
The two allowed themselves to relax a bit once Kaeya's carefree attitude came back and eased the tension in the air. They excused themselves before leaving the courtyard, but that's when Kaeya stopped them once more to ask a final question.
"By the way, where'd you hear that story from?", he asked.
"I heard it from some of the guards from the rear entrance", one of them replied. "I think it was Patton".
He waved them off before turning his heel and began walking down the stairs and headed towards the city. Putting a hand under his chin, he began to scratch and thought to himself that he seemingly found something entertaining he could do today.
Oh…this could be fun…

When he had arrived at the side gate, he saw the typical scene at the possibly the least exciting part of the city. A group of Knights were sitting in a semicircle, playing card games while a couple of them were inspecting some newly arrived supplies by merchants. Kaeya had half the mind to reprimand them, but he knew it'll only get on their nerves too much, so he decided to head straight into his objective.
But as he approached, it seems it was already like the rumor was already in full swing amongst them.
"Man, who knew Acting Grandmaster Jean and Master Diluc be fucking behind everyone's back", one of the Knights, Kaeya remembered as Tyler, commented.
"Sounds too risqué to be honest", the Knight facing him admitted.
"Hey, maybe they get a kick out of it", the other one beside him said. "I mean, who wouldn't want to have a secret relationship? It's the shit you read in romance novels".
"But still, surprising to hear about it", he replied.
"Eh, I kinda saw it coming, I mean, didn't they already know each other, like, way back?", Ben, the Knight on his right said.
"Yeah, they were probably already messing each other insides by that time", Tyler joked.
The other two made a disgusted face at that.
"Ugh, man, that's gross don't say it like that"
"What?", Tyler questioned.
"Have some decency man, there's kids here"
"Hey maybe it is true that Klee is their love child -"
"Gentlemen, as lively as ever I see", Kaeya suddenly greeted as he stood behind them.
Instantly, all the Knight shot up in their seats, standing as stiff as a board before facing the Cavalry Captain, who was merely watching with amusement as they saluted him and trying to block his view of their playing cards.
"Sir Kaeya", Tyler said as he put his arm down. "We-We weren't told you'd be coming over".
He waved him off, "It's fine, I'm actually here on personal business".
Kaeya looked around them, they seemed too flustered and embarrassed around him. He honestly thought that his job was keeping the Knights from slacking off and doing their job but eavesdropping on their conversation seemed to make it clear to him.
Seems like the rumor mill is running high…he thought.
He turned back to the men, "So, what was the lively conversation you guys wanted to remain decent?".
A collective intake of breath was taken by all of them upon the realization that Kaeya, of all the Cavalry Captains, was the one who overheard them. They were a lot more nervous than before, two of them were kicking away the rock by their feet and Ben was looking away. Tyler glared before turning back to Kaeya, who still awaited for an answer from them.
"We…We were talking about a rumor going around about Acting Grandmaster Jean and Master Diluc", he replied.
"Oh? A rumor? What's it about?", he asked.
Tyler scratched the back of his neck, "Um, apparently they're having a secret relationship and stuff like that…".
"Tyler said Klee is their love child!", Ben suddenly said.
Tyler glared at him, "Idiot! I never said that!".
"Yeah you did", the other Knight behind him replied.
"Shut it"
"Enough", Kaeya said, shutting the situation down. "Tyler proceed".
He sighed before continuing, "Acting Grandmaster Jean was said to be frequenting the Angel's Share recently, even staying late into the night and apparently they've been doing it there all the time and something about rendezvouses at the inn".
"And the Klee thing?", Kaeya coaxed as he crossed his arms.
"I-It was a joke I made to Ben the other day I swear", Tyler defended.
In any other day Kaeya would share in such humor, especially the idea of Klee being Jean and Diluc's love child, hell, he himself made mental chides every time he'd see Klee and Jean together and the similarities of Klee's vision with Diluc. But it was a different story if the other Knights were whispering to themselves about it, or worse, people around town picked up wind of it.
Sure, his earlier objective was to find the source of the rumor and get more details about it, but now it was more on to stop from spreading further than it already was. He wasn't lying earlier, something like could only sour Jean's already shaky reputation to the people and Gods forbid how pissed off it'll make Diluc.
He looked back at the group, "Where'd you hear about this?".
"Some of the Knights from the night shift told me about it yesterday, they said they heard it from Patton the night before as well", Tyler replied.
Did we hire a bored housewife disguised as a Knight or something?...he jokingly thought.
"Look, I know it's fun to talk and make assumptions about Acting Grandmaster Jean's affairs", he began to lecture them like he did earlier. "But I am asking you to keep it amongst yourselves and not to discuss it with anyone outside the Knights, if such a baseless rumor gets out it could damage her reputation further understand? And it's not just Jean but Master Diluc as well".
All of them replied:
"Yes Sir"
"We understand Sir"
"We're sorry Sir"
"Understood Sir"
"Good, so where is Patton?", Kaeya asked. "I'm going to find him and have him clear up an obvious misunderstanding".
"He's on break, I think he went to the Angel's Share", Ben replied.
Kaeya nodded as he stepped back, "Well get back to it before -"
"Oi, you lot! What the hell are you standing around for!? Get to work!"
At the sound of Cavalry Captain Hertha's the four of them scrambled to their posts and continued their jobs, stuffing the playing cards into their pockets as they jogged away. Kaeya gave them props for efficiency, if they would apply it to their work ethics it would be admirable.
"Captain Kaeya", Hertha said as she arrived. "What brings you to my neck of the woods?".
Kaeya shrugged, "Personal business Hertha, I'll get out of your hair".
"You better, or else I'll tell Acting Grandmaster Jean you've been slacking off again", she bitingly replied. "And it's CAPTAIN Hertha you hear?".
"Sheesh, can't a guy catch a break?", he chuckled as he left, heading towards the Angel's Share with his new objective.

"Sir Kaeya!"
He turned to the sound of his name being called to see Amber bounding towards him, her shoes still had fresh mud on them and there were still leaves and twigs practically stuck to her hair and clothes. Indication that she had just gotten back from a scouting mission, but there was a bubbling energy to the Outrider that he noticed right away. It seemed more intense than when she talked about gliding or Aether, though with the latter he noted she talked in a dreamlike tone and starry eyes when she spoke of him.
"My, what energy Amber, I take the scouting mission was successful?", he replied as she stopped in front of him to catch her breath.
"Don't pretend you care about that Sir Kaeye", Amber brushed off his attempts, despite it being the truth. "I'm actually here cause I've been hearing a rumor amongst the other Knights".
Ah shit…
"Is it true Acting Grandmaster Jean and Master Diluc are dating?", she asked in a hushed tone that Kaeya was thankful for.
"Where'd you hear that from?", he asked her.
"Swan and Lawrence were talking about it when I got back", she replied.
The sudden urge to implement a gag order on the entire Ordo Favonius passed his mind momentarily before he shook it off. That would only make things worse and blow the entire situation out of proportions. Besides, he was on a mission to squash the rumor before it spread even further and reached Jean herself.
"Listen, Amber, all that rumor is assumption and hearsay", he quickly explained to her. "Some guy just probably saw them together, made up some grand story that was juicy and scandalous enough and spread it around".
"So it's not true Acting Grandmaster Jean and Master Diluc are dating?", Amber concluded and Kaeya nodded. "Awww, that sucks, I was actually happy for them and everything".
"Don't ever tell any of them that or else Jean will wring both our necks for it", Kaeya jokes, but saw it as a possibility, nonetheless.
"But it would've been nice to see them together, for some strange reason, they're a perfect fit", Amber admitted.
Kaeya nodded in agreement, despite himself, he was a romantic through the core. There was always something about Jean and Diluc that intrigued him, the two's relationship was something straight out of a romance novel. Close friends and comrades before a tragedy drove them apart, before finally, through some twist of fate, kept finding themselves involved in each other's lives despite the fragile state their relationship has become after all these years.
If Kaeya was a writer, he would consider it one of the best possible love stories ever told. But the reality was much different, though, for a moment, he'd enjoy indulging the fantasy of the two secretly dating. He knows deep inside himself, those two deserve each other.
"But it's not exactly for me to decide", he muttered to himself.
He looked up to see Amber giving a questioning look, realizing that he had probably spoken his thoughts out loud. Something he almost never does, but it seems his mouth and feelings got the better of him.
"What was that Sir? Sounded ominous", Amber wondered and Kaeya merely smiled in reply.
"Well, I'm off to dispel the rumor before it gets too complicated to control", Kaeya announced before turning around, but glanced at Amber as he left. "You probably should take a shower Amber, I heard Aether is coming back into town today".
At the mention of his name, the red ribbon wearing brunette's face turned red before playing with the ends of her hair. She gazed embarrassingly at the ground, something Kaeya grinned at the sight of, thankful he had gotten the message that morning from Aether himself. It seems like there's another relationship just bubbling beneath the surface.
"He…He is? I see…thanks Sir Kaeya, I'll see you later", she said before turning around and jogging home, muttering to herself. "What outfit should I wear?...lunch at the Good Hunter sounds like a good idea…hope Noelle doesn't get in the way this time…".
Kaeya returned to his current mission, dispelling the rumor and clear a possible misunderstanding before it spills out into the public.
I should be getting paid for this…he happily thought as the Angel's Share loomed over in the distance.
-0-
He found Patton at the corner of the Angel's Share laughing it up with a group of other Knights. Kaeya would be caught up in the easy going atmosphere himself if he wasn't here for a different purpose. So as nonchalant and unassuming as he can, he approached the group as a chortle of laughter and jeers began to erupt from them, it was thankful that there were barely any people this early or else they would be considered a nuisance.
"So it's true about the whole inn secret rendezvous?", one of the Knights beside Patton asked as leaned closer to him.
Patton happily nodded, "Yeah man, it was crazy, they went in and after 4 hours, came out all blushing and sweating"
"4 hours!? Damn, is Acting Grandmaster Jean trying to get herself pregnant or something?", the Knight questioned.
"Ha! If that's the case, she's giving Klee a younger sibling!", another jeered.
"Hahaha, so I guess it is true about the whole love child thing"
"Oh come on! Blonder hair, red eyes, Klee's practically a dead ringer"
"But with Master Diluc of all people?"
"Hey, all that stress has to be relieved somewhere"
"Maybe she has a thing for bad boys"
"Hey, maybe she'll like Tommy over here, since he's bad at everything"
"Oh shut up Ed"
"What lively discourse so early in the day", Kaeya said as he appeared before them, and it was like a knife had sliced through the atmosphere, the air grew still as all of them stood up and saluted.
"Mo-Morning, Sir Kaeya", one of the Knights, Ed, greeted. "I didn't expect to see you here".
"I was around the area and thought I'd follow the sound of laughter", he slyly replied, giving them a look as the realization hit them and all looked down in embarrassment.
"Sorry about that Sir, we'll try to keep it down", Tommy apologized.
Kaeya crossed his arms over his chest, looking every single one of them and noticing Patton was the one who was red and sweating.
"I remember you gentlemen were assigned to patrol the center and market this morning, am I correct?", Kaeya said.
Ed raised his hand, "Um, we don't start for another hour Sir".
"So? It's not like criminals are going to wait for you until you do", he scolded, and lying to himself that he was enjoying playing a strict superior. "Or do I have to report you all for public disturbance to your Captain?".
In an instant, all the men filed out of the Angel's Share and Charles breathed a sigh of relief at the sight of it. Patton was already packing up his things from his seat before Kaeya sat down beside him, the young man swallowed thickly as he watched him place his elbow on the table, rest his head in his hand before turning to him.
"So Patton, I hear you have some grand story about Acting Grandmaster Jean and Master Diluc", he said, immediately heading straight to the point. "Might I ask how you made such a story?".
"Whe-Where'd you hear about it Sir?", he nervously asked as he sat down.
"Oh around, it's actually a popular conversation topic wouldn't you agree?", Kaeya said before giving him a smile, an attempt to ease the tense mood.
"I-I guess so…", Patton admitted, twiddling his thumbs.
"Might I ask how you came up with such a story then?", Kaeya asked once more.
Patton stuttered but continued nonetheless, "My…My sister told me actually, she-she works at a store near the inn and apparently saw them that one time".
"One time? I heard they were spotted there on several occasions", Kaeya corrected.
"Tha-That's what she said! I mean, she said that it was the one time but…but I don't know about the rest…", he confessed.
Kaeya felt like smiling, finding the immediate hole in his story, "So, you're not even sure that they met on several occasions? I heard they were having secret rendezvouses at that inn".
"My Mom! She said that could be the case and…and I agreed with her…", he defended before realizing what he had said and looked down. "Oh…".
Kaeya played the part of the clueless captain this time, wanting to reassure Patton that he wasn't in any trouble while at the same time dismantling the story at its source. It was a bit of scummy tactic, play dumb and then pick apart a story but it had to be done. Kaeya saw the opportunity to destroy the rumor for good, so much so, that he sat straighter in his chair and looked back at him with a serious expression.
"Look Patton, you can believe anything you want, that's not my issue", Kaeya started. "My issue is spreading a supposed secret relationship of a superior around which, in my eyes, has no factual basis whatsoever".
"Bu-but my sister -"
"Saw them the one time they were conveniently in the same area of an inn, did she even see them go in and leave together?"
Patton looked down, trying to remember, "No-no, she didn't see them go in just that they left the inn separately".
"See? That could've been easily a misunderstanding, Acting Grandmaster Jean has been coordinating with inn staff to secure a venue for an event next month and who knows what business a businessman like Master Diluc would have with an inn", Kaeya explained, thankful he had been given a notice for a delegates meeting for next month in town, sure, it was supposed to be held in an entirely different part of the city but it was good ammunition.
"She was? I didn't know…", Patton said.
"Yeah and a rumor like that, even if it was true, could damage her reputation permanently you understand me?", he coaxed the young Knight, who nodded in agreement.
"I guess I got too caught up with what my Mom and Sister were saying to even consider it", he admitted, a little shameful now.
"Good, at least you understand the severity of such a thing and can still fix it", Kaeya said before Patton looked up. "What I want you to do now is clear everything up, say it was a misunderstanding and ask the others to stop spreading such false information around".
"I will, Sir", Patton agreed, fully accepting of his mistake.
Patton admitted it was a fun story to hear and it was just a thoughtless anecdote he told over beers a few nights before. Sure, he thought it was harmless and even joked about it with his friends, but he never took into account what impact a rumor, a baseless and even salacious one, could have on the people involved.
Patton sighed, he was going to fix this.
"You're a good man Patton, so I'm glad we have an understanding", Kaeya complimented him as he stood back up.
"Thank you Sir, I'll clear everything up with the rest and have them knock it off with telling others", he replied. "I should probably apologize to the Acting Grandmaster directly too, seeing the trouble I'm causing her".
"Eh no need, Acting Grandmaster Jean doesn't seem to be aware of it yet so you have time to clear it up before it reaches her", Kaeya reassured him. "And I suggest doing it with haste, before her sister gets wind of it".
Patton shivers at the thought of angering the no. 1 Idol of Mondstadt, drains his drink before standing up and running back outside. Now on his own personal mission to clear the rumor he started, sure people are going to give him grief over it, but it was better than having it be let out and possibly humiliating the Acting Grandmaster in the process. Besides, he doesn't want to get on Master Diluc's bad side.
Gods, please tell me there's still more time…he thought as he ran to the rear gate.
Kaeya watched him as he did as he walked out of the Angel's Share. A tad proud and pleased with himself that he had managed to deal with a situation by himself, sure, it took having a young Knight ready to get ridiculed and mocked for spreading such a rumor but it was all worth it to keep Jean and Diluc away from Mondstadt's rumor mill.
He smiles to himself as he walks back to the headquarters.

"Oh! Captain Kaeya!"
Kaeya turned to the sound of Paimon's voice calling out to him as he entered the headquarters. He watched as she floated towards him, Aether himself just trailing behind her. He always wondered what kind of magic she was using to fly like that, given she practically had no wings herself, but stopped caring about it once he realized he'll never get a concrete answer. Besides, Paimon might just extort him for mora in exchange for information.
Instead he smiles as he greets the two, "My, the Honorary Knight himself and his trusty companion, back so soon?".
Aether nodded as Paimon excitedly floated about, he could tell she was getting antsy just being here.
"Yeah, Paimon and him just came back from Liyue, it was greeeeaaat!", she replied, happily raising her arms into the air. "There were so many tasty foods and we found a lot of treasures, I think Paimon is going to be very rich".
Aether, who stood beside her, lightly elbowed her before giving her a scolding look almost saying, "Hey, don't be saying stuff like that". Paimon laughed as she rubbed the back of her head in embarrassment. Aether then dug into his pocket before bringing out a small envelope and handing it to Kaeya.
"What's this?", Kaeya asked as observed.
"Oh yeah! Paimon remembers why we're back here", she suddenly said. "Is Acting Grandmaster Jean around? We were asked to give her a letter from the Adventurer's Guild in Liyue Harbor".
"I'm not sure if she is, but let's head to her office and check", Kaeya said before turning to walk upstairs, the duo following behind him.
"So Captain Kaeya, Paimon heard this rumor from Swan and Lawrence earlier…", Paimon started.
"It's all hearsay based on a misunderstanding Paimon, nothing more", he swiftly replied. "The person behind it admitted it himself and is trying to clear it all up".
"Ehhhh? Really?", Paimon admonished.
Aether gave her a "I told you so" look, seemingly unbelieving of the rumor himself in the first place and Paimon merely sighed in disappointment.
"Aether! Paimon!", a voice called out to them as they reached the second floor.
The trio turned to see Amber running towards, she seemed energetic and glowing. Kaeya noted that she had cleaned herself up and even changed into different clothes, something more charming than her usual outfit. Something she proudly displayed to them as she arrived.
"Amber! Paimon is happy to see you again", Paimon greeted.
"Nice to see you guys too", she replied. "I just saw you and was surprised you were back in town".
Kaeya wanted to laugh at the obvious lie she was saying but chose to keep it to himself instead.
"Um, so Aether, how-how do I look?", Amber asked as she placed her arms behind her and looked up at him, acting like a shy schoolgirl.
Aether merely nodded in approval and smiled, it was enough to light Amber's face at that indication and smiled in victory.
"I think you're very cute Amber", Paimon said, before crossing her arms and nodding. "Paimon approves…".
Aether gave her a questioning look but Amber interjected, "So…um, would you like to have some lunch at the Good Hunter later or…"
"I'll leave you kids to it", Kaeya said, before turning around and heading to the Grandmaster's office by himself, wanting to leave and give them their moment. Honestly, he was impressed with how both forward and shy Amber was with her feelings but it made for a nice spectacle sometimes and it was enough to entertain him.
Ah…to be young and in love…he thought as he reached the Jean's office.
He reached for the door and opened it immediately, holding up the letter in his hands and called out to Jean as soon as he opened the door and stepped inside. Unaware of the pieces of clothing that laid strewn on the ground around him.
"Grandmaster Jean, I have a letter from Liyue Harbor and -"
What words that would come out of his mouth were caught in his throat and only gurgling sounds emitted. He felt his eyes widened at the sight, his grip on the letter tightened in his hand to the point it was crumpling, for truly, the sight before him was equally as shocking.
Two people were currently on the floor, he noticed the familiar red hair of his brother's as it laid on the hardwood floor. Never mind the fact that Diluc was shirtless and his pants were already past his knees, what surprised him most was the person straddling him. Jean covered her naked chest, her hair was messed up and her top was tossed behind them as well as her pants, with Diluc's hands on her hips.
The Acting Grandmaster's face slowly turning red as he looked up at him, her mouth agape like a fish out of water. Diluc didn't seem to be faring any better, staring at Kaeya with a blank expression but he could see shock and surprise overtake his fiery red eyes.
It felt like an eternity pass before reality came back down Kaeya and realized the situation he was in, he just walked in on his superior and his brother about to do the deed, and he needed to get out there fast. Lest he wants to save his skin and eyes from being burnt off.
"I'll-I'll leave this letter here!", he announced before throwing the letter at a nearby table, turning around and practically running towards the door and grabbing the handle. "Use protection!".
Before the two could reply, Kaeya slammed the door behind him and let out a massive sigh of relief. He watched a couple of Knights pass and greet him, had he been a second late, things could be disastrous. But he recalls the scene once more and he feels shivers run up and down his spin.
Guess those rumors had some basis to them…he thought.
"Oi, Sir Kaeya what's the matter? Looks like you've seen a ghost", he heard Amber's voice and saw the trio slowly approach him.
He acted fast, running up to them and blocking their way before they could come any closer to the door.
"Never mind that, Paimon wonders if Acting Grandmaster Jean is in and if she has read the letter", Paimon said as Aether nodded in agreement.
"Well it seems Acting Grandmaster Jean is busy right now, but she has informed me she'll take a look at it once she gets work done", he quickly explained.
"Well, seems like our job here is done", Paimon said to Aether who nodded in reply.
"Oh wait before we go, I have to ask Acting Grandmaster Jean about my scouting report…", Amber said as she moved past Kaeya and headed to the door.
"Like I said, Acting Grandmaster Jean is busy and doesn't want to be disturb at the moment", Kaeya replied as he blocked her way. "You mentioned something about lunch at the Good Hunter right? Let's go immediately, consider it my treat".
"Oh really? Paimon is thankful to Captain Kaeya", Paimon thanked him, more on the fact she was getting free food.
"Eh? But it was supposed to be just me and Aether today…", Amber muttered.
Kaeya immediately turned them around and began pushing them downstairs and slowly out the door, but not before informing the guards to not enter the Grandmaster's office in the meantime until the Acting Grandmaster herself emerged. The excuse of being busy seemed to work fine and he was thankful all the Knights were understanding.
As they reached outside, Kaeya couldn't help but sigh and feel a little elated at the sudden development. He wasn't lying when he said that two were made for each other, and what he had witnessed had already affirmed it. But then he hears Paimon rattling off the food she wants to order at the Good Hunter as Aether laughs and Amber sulks, realizing the blow this would surely have on his wallet, he mentally grimaces.
Man…he thought…I should really be getting paid for this.
End.
Note: Thank you so much for reading, apologies if its too short compared to my last one and not as good. I'm coming back from a month's break from writing and posting and I'm trying to get back on the groove of things.
