A.N. Just letting you know, I'm not publishing a chapter tomorrow. My publishing schedule is going to be weekdays and Saturdays for Deadman Remnant and Sundays for Magus of Dust. Sorry if you were expecting this to continue being a daily thing.
Chapter 17 - Hangover
Qrow groggily opened his eyes. Then they opened wide with shock.
A cute oriental face stared back at him. The face was serene and calmly sleeping. On a good day, Qrow would be hooting at the catch he got to bed.
This was not a good day.
For one, Qrow didn't remember what happened last night. Fearfully, he checked and sighed in relief when he found their clothes were untouched.
Qrow doesn't swing that way... not that he's against it. Don't hate what you ain't tried. But yeah, he'd prefer waking to a woman in his bed.
Second, he was pretty sure Rory was underage and at least ten years younger than him. Thinking about it, this probably looked bad out of context. Him, offering an underage kid a drink before taking him home to sleep with him.
Maybe he should lay off the alcohol for a bit...
"Ugh, what's that pain in my head?" Next to him, Rory started to wake up. Looking at Qrow, he only blinked twice before flopping back to bed.
"Qrowww, where are we?"
"Hm, looks like we're back in my room at Beacon."
Suddenly Rory shot straight up. "...we're at Beacon?"
A knock suddenly came from the door. "Qrow. Are you awake yet? Ozpin said to call you in once the two of you woke up."
Rory reaaally hoped this nightmare would end soon.
