Kid POV

After everyone left, it was beginning to get dark out.

Still, Liz and Patty decided to keep their plans to go out (god only knows where to) leaving Chrona and I alone for the first time since this morning.

I was happy that everything seemed to be going so smoothly. It seemed like Chrona was settling in a lot better than I thought.

"Well, what now?" Chrona asked, breaking the silence as I poured some coffee.

I sighed thoughtfully. "Well, it's only about nine...Are you feeling tired yet?" She frowned, shaking her head 'no', making me smile. "We could watch a movie, then."

We made our way back to the living room, dimming the lights a little. (A/N: dimmer switch, bitches! lmao!) "What are you in the mood for?"

Chrona simply seated herself on the couch. "Anything's fine,"

I shrugged, popping in a random movie (A/N: use ur imagination) before sitting next to her. Right away, she cuddled up next to me and I wrapped an arm around her. It warmed my heart to have her close like this. I barely paid any attention to the movie, instead blissfully enjoying the way our bodies seemed to fit each other perfectly...The way she smelled of lavender and rain...The way it was so easy to relax around her...

It was unbelievable how perfect it all was...How perfect she was for me.

For an instant I recalled the ring I had hidden away upstairs. I had gotten it from my father yesterday, intending to pop the quiestion today but now I knew it was folly to think such things.

As amazing as it was to have her like this, and as much as I knew I could spend the rest of my life with her, I knew it'd be too much for her too soon.

She told me she loved me, but Stein had been right; She could move on if she so wanted to. And though I couldn't bare the idea, I couldn't trap her here. As long as she loved me now, I was fine. I wouldn't propose until she was ready.

She was worth the wait.

oooo

Chrona yawned as the end credits rolled up the screen. "That felt like it took longer than it was supposed to," she mumbled.

I smiled and got up to put the dvd away. "Tired are we?"

"A little,"

"Then we should be heading to bed. It's almost midnight," I pointed out. She nodded in agreement and followed me upstairs.

Liz and Patty still weren't back yet. Just as well, they always stayed up late, and they would've insisted on keeping Chrona up just a little longer to try on some nightgowns. I went over to my own closet, on the opposite wall of Chrona's, and pulled out a white t-shirt and navy blue pants. "If you're uncomfortable changing in the same room, there's a bathroom right there," I pointed out, fighting the light blush that wanted to appear. Seemed liek every time I thought of Chrona naked, thoughts of our...intimacy...flashed through my mind.

She bit her lip. "Um...no...I'm fine...Kid-kun?"

"Yes?"

"Does...Does me being naked...bother you?" She asked quietly, her face turning pink.

I felt my throat go dry. "No, of course not," I assured her. "Why would you think that?"

Chrona looked at the floor. "W-well...I've...um...n-nevermind. Just curious..."

I quirked a brow. Already dressed I strolled over and placed a hand on her shoulder, making her jolt slightly. "Chrona, whatever you need to say go ahead. There's no need to be embarrassed."

"W-well..." She grabbed at her arm and figeted, her eyes darting around the room. "I...I've sort of gotten into the habit of...um...sleeping naked..."

...Oh...

My face turned red at the idea of her next to me without a single strand of clothing, laying there peacefully, her body free and exposed...

I shook my head and tried to compose myself, smiling softly. "Whatever makes you comfortable," was my response, kissing her forehead softly before going to brush my teeth in my own bathroom (A/N: on his side of the room...it's a big room...SYMMETRY PPL!). When I came out, Chrona was in her own bathroom. I resisted the urge to peek and see if she was naked, opting to instead climb into bed. Just as I was getting comfortable, she poked her head out of her bathroom.

"You...you're sure this is okay?"

I nodded. "Of course. I've seen you naked before, haven't I?"

She visibly relaxed at that and strolled out, walking over...completely nude...

I couldn't help but scan my eyes over her pale figure, taking in every detail. Even though I had seen plenty of her just last night the sight was still exciting.

Oblivious to my flustered state, she climbed into bed, sighing softly. "Good night, Kid-kun. And um...Thank you...for letting me move in,"

I laid down beside her, holding her close (despite the growning problem below). "I'd do anything for you, Chrona, you know that. I'm just glad you accepted."

"Still, I'd like to thank you in some way,"

"You don't need to," I blushed a deep red now.

"No, I've been thinking about it...and I've decided how."

"...How?"

She smiled, kissing me softly. "It's a surprise," She replied before cuddling up to my chest again. "Good night,"

"Good night, Chrona," There was no way I was going to be able to sleep tonight.

oooooooooooooooo

u all have to wait for the surprise now lol
