Here it is-
The Blacksun chapter I kinda owed you guys who were here for this ship xD
"Dang, your dad will kill me for this." Sun whispered to himself as he very carefully assisted Blake in walking straight until they get to their doorstep.
He insisted to just carry her bridal style instead, so she wouldn't have to put effort, but Blake said she can still manage. One arm around his shoulders while her boyfriend's hand was on her waist, holding her like she was some kind of fragile glass that one wrong move and he'll easily lose her.
She gave him the keys and with an exasperated sigh, Sun shoved them onto the doorknob and it quickly went ajar.
Still so careful of his movements, deep down he wanted to blame himself for letting her take not just one or two shots, though he was sure not more than five. Blake doesn't even drink, only on special occassions, and always had low tolerance.
But then again, it was Ruby's eighteenth, and she's finally legal. It was a blast despite it being more like a simple get together than a birthday party. For him, the important thing here is they both had fun, and were happy.
When they got in, Blake suddenly held his cheeks with a sheepish smile on her face. That caught him off guard. Rosy pair of cheeks, which he'd assume probably because of the alcohol, and those yellow cat-like eyes gazing at him like he was the only person in the world right now.
Sun gulped, his heart started beating erratically inside his chest with the anticipation of what Blake might do next, and even if he badly wanted to just let her rest, it felt like his feet were nailed to the floor when she kissed him.
Her lips had always been soft and warm, and this wasn't the first time they did it - but it was their first inside the Belladonna household.
Normally, Blake will never do this. Never. But damn, her soul might have gone to somewhere else, thus leaving her like this.
Wrapping her arms around his neck, their kiss started as slow, then grew more passionate which they never have done before. Usually it was just short, sweet kisses, and simple pecks on regular days. From what his vivid memory coud recall, they only made out once, during that one time Blake was extremely down. Apart from that, nothing, and there was never a follow up. So this was new, and for Sun this might be one of those cool dreams he didn't want to wake up from yet.
He parted his lips from hers, whispering out loud, "Blake...! Y- Your dad will surely kill me twice now. Like he's going to kill me first, then resurrect me, only just to kill me again." catching his own breath, he dared to glance at the stairway to see if ever there was a Ghira whose death glare never failed to send chills down his spine.
Ignoring his words, Blake just chuckled at him and buried her face in his neck. He sighed as he embraced her tight, feeling her warm breath sweeping against his skin.
And just in time, as if his mind had just conjured the last person he wanted to see at this state; Ghira came straight from the restroom, clearing his throat exaggeratedly, not once but twice.
That made him face her father wide-eyed, still holding Blake in his arms. Ghira raised his eyebrow at him, arms crossed while tapping his right foot as if waiting for him to do the talking first. It was like an unspoken rule between them that just by the look he gave him, Sun felt compelled to explain why his daughter came home this late, and he wanted to add even more clingy and touchy in rare times like this.
"Uh, sir," Sun lingered his vision around their living room to look for the time, 12:52AM, "Blake really enjoyed our friend Ruby's birthday celebration. Some things just got legal for her, so you know, the usual stuff." he laughed awkwardly, trying to mask the nervousness slowly creeping through him.
"I told you to drop her off by ten." Ghira's tone was stern, though not at all threatening, but for Sun it sounded so.
"Dad, come on, don't be like that. Me and Sun just had a good time together, and if anything, I would've not reached home by now if it weren't because of him." Blake said.
Ghira took a deep breath. For a moment, he couldn't keep his eyes off the way Sun was holding Blake, until he clicked his tongue, "Okay, I'll spare you this night. Now take her to her room, then leave immediately. Aye, son?"
It wasn't very frequent when Ghira referred to him as 'son'. Only in those occassions where he did a good job on a certain thing, and then he gives him a fatherly pat on the back, inwardly telling him 'you should be proud'.
"On it, sir." for Sun, hearing that alone was already rewarding enough for his part; because it just means approval, even though Ghira tried to be strict at all times.
But before Sun could even get going, Blake spoke again, pulling away from him then turning to look at her father, "Dad, I don't want to be in my room right now. Just let me sleep here. In the couch, I mean. And Sun won't leave..."
This time, Ghira sighed in defeat. If his daughter's completely fine about it, then he should be too. And if Kali was here, she would've already told him to 'Just leave the children alone and do their own thing. They're adults.' in her most chastising voice. "Alright, alright. If you say so, Blake. Goodnight," he said instead, "Just...keep things - child-friendly." he reminded them one last time before fully going upstairs.
A huge sigh of relief escaped his mouth, and he can't help but smile at Blake for what she said. It had always been a challenge being with her, though it wasn't obvious, but everything had been worth the stake if it meant being together and there for her.
Six months. It took him six months to pursue Blake and finally hear her sweet 'Yes'. With of course, lots of effort and constant persistence. Though he was from Mistral, he and Blake met at a university in Menagerie and cliche as it may sound, but the moment he saw her there felt like 'love at first sight'.
She had always been the silent, mysterious type. Only speak to few people who talk to her first, always had a book to read in her hand, a regular in the library, and a good student in general. But maybe the thing most striking about her besides those attributes, was the determination she possess in improving herself in different aspects.
Dealing with her started not as easy as he thought it would be. Blake tried to push him away several times, not because she didn't want him around, but because she wanted to deal with her inner struggles by herself, yet still he never left her. Bearing that kind of mindset, she thought it's going to be fine, but Sun made her understand close to her heart that she will never have to walk and fight alone.
Until they started going out, with mutual feelings, that Sun had to deal with her parents this time around. Kali was quick to give him her blessing, but with Ghira it was way tougher. He had to prove himself, to show his edge, how worthy he was for their only daughter. Eventually, they paid off slowly.
Those six months were incredibly a pain in the ass - but at the end of the day, Sun chose to brush the silly memories off his mind and just spend this night with the girl he loved.
"Sleep with me tonight." Blake held his hand as she started to head towards their couch, fit for two people to lay in.
Spellbound must be the right word to describe his girlfriend right now, and Sun just had to wonder why Blake was acting like this. Not that he was complaining though, but it was probably just the alcohol kicking in, he kept on telling himself.
"Yeah, sure, of course."
As they both laid down, Sun quickly found the perfect position because just being close to her already puts him at ease, "Goodnight, Blake." he said, kissing her cheek softly.
Blake was already too sleepy to even lift her eyes, but she managed to mutter back, "Goodnight, my sun."
It didn't came out like she was owning him, but it definitely came out more like she was referring to him as her sun. That made his heart feel thoroughly warmed, and Sun just couldn't ask for more. Blake made him happy even in the smallest of things, and he so much wished he was doing the same for her.
Blake woke up, blinking twice so her eyes can adjust with the morning light that just shone directly in front of her. Freckles of dust hovering along the beam, and the transcendental ambiance their living room was pulling off at the moment. But what made her smile first thing is this literal ray of sunshine just beside her.
Unconsciously nuzzling his nose on the crook of her neck when she moved a little, Blake bit her lower lip to stop herself from chuckling as Sun continued to sleep behind her while his arms were wrapped around her waist.
He was hugging her like he couldn't afford losing her. It was one of Sun's habits that made Blake slowly fall for him, and everytime he does it, she's falling for him over and over again like it was even the first time it happened.
"I'll go prepare us some breakfast," Blake tried to remove his hand slowly, but to no avail when he held her again with the usual, indistinct sleeping noise.
Lightly shaking her head, Blake once again tried removing his hand, but this time she got a proper response, "Just...stay with me here, for a while." he mumbled, and she could feel his tickling breath on her neck.
She finally turned to face him, his eyes were still closed and he looked so much in peace, "I'm not running away from you, silly." Blake poked his nose, smiling even though he woudn't see.
But Sun slowly opened his eyes, like that of a child, and his whole face just lit up with bliss when he witnessed how Blake was so close to his face, her sweet smile still intact in her lips.
Indeed, a hella good morning.
"Good morning, beautiful." he chuckled, and then kissed her softly on the nose, which made her giggle.
"You're so cheesy." Blake jokingly rolled her eyes and sat up, biting her lower lip to stop herself from kissing him back.
"I'm just telling the truth." he shrugged, sitting up beside her as well and couldn't help but to give her another quick embrace.
Without saying anymore word, she just showed him another heart warming smile. That alone already says a lot and it made his whole day, but there was something Sun wanted to ask since yesterday, "Uh, Blake?" he said, suddenly letting go of her while scratching the back of his head, as if having second thoughts about his question.
Maybe it wasn't a good idea to ask this first thing in the morning, but perhaps Blake wouldn't mind either.
"Yes?" she answered simply, though looking at him curiously.
"You had this talk with Mercury, right? So...how did it went? If you don't mind me asking." he tried his best to sound like it wasn't that big of a deal when it really was, a tiny part of him wanted to know what was it all about though he was certainly sure of one thing.
Blake was half surprised, half expecting that, and there was no in between. Knowing Sun, he usually won't ask, but if it involves other people, she'll let him know, "Glad you mentioned it, I almost forgot to tell you. Uh, it went fine, basically he's not the cynical person you thought he was." she held his hand assuringly, noticing the slightest worried expression on his face.
For a split second there, Sun had his eyebrows knitted in confusion, "Hey, I never said that. I just think he's really cool, but kind of arrogant in a sense. In a sense like, the bad boy type, and Yang sure loves that, huh?" he was quick to collect himself, letting out a laugh afterwards.
That earned him a good laugh from her as well, "So you're the good boy type?"
"Uh, that one came from you, so maybe I am?"
She just pinched his cheek instead, "Let's not just think of him that way," Blake finally stood up and combed her hair using her fingers, "because I'm very sure Yang made the right choice in dating him. She found her match." she turned to look at him over the shoulder, a small smile gracing on her lips while her eyes motioning him to follow her.
Sun did without furder ado, putting one arm around her, "Yeah, right. I guess that was proven after their turn in seven minutes."
"Indeed."
Stay tuned! Next part's gonna be more Yang/Merc/Em/Ruby bonding ^^;
