A/n- I know some people don't like this couple for numerous reasons, but I do and I don't think it's as bad as people want it to be. I don't think it's incest because they aren't blood related and I don't think it's grooming because they only realized their feelings after they were apart for a while and Sothe had the time to grow up and think for himself. I will not be taking questions or debates on this. If it's not for you then skip this story and move on. For those who will read it, enjoy!

The Commission Files- File #a1219 Alone Time

Characters: Sothe, Micaiah

Based on: a commission by Amayasenpai_ on Twitter

"Finally, we get some alone time." Micaiah said with a sigh as Sothe closed the door to the room behind them. They were currently in a small bed and breakfast inn in a remote part of Daein. Why were they in such a place you may ask? Well, it was their honeymoon of course. Instead of going somewhere with a lot of people that would inevitably cause them too much stress to enjoy themselves they decided to go somewhere nice, quiet, and cozy to get away from their duties. Everything in the capital was taken care of of course, they knew better to leave it in chaos, but it had also taken a long time to get things stable so this break was something the both of them needed after everything happening since the war with the Goddess.

"Agreed." Sothe said taking a few deep breaths as well. "Who knew we'd get such a crowd out here as well? I guess your fame as queen has even spread to every corner of Daein at this point."

"I really hope that's for the best though, I want to be someone the people of Daein can believe in." Micaiah stated. "That's why I kept stopping to help people while we were out, I'm sorry if that bothered you too much Sothe."

"Not at all." Sothe assured her. "As long as I get to stand by your side and keep you safe then I'm happy. Besides, you being so helpful and caring to everyone is one of the reasons I love you so much."

"Oh Sothe, you've really gotten better at saying romantic things like that." Micaiah said with a small blush. "But it's really because I have you by my side that I feel so confident to help people, you make things so easy and make me feel safe, and I love that feeling. I don't think anyone else but you could give it to me."

"As I've said many times before, I'll protect you right up to the very moment I die." Sothe stated seriously. "But with how things have gone recently, I don't think that's going to be for a long while."

"Me either." Micaiah said walking over and wrapping her arms around Sothe's body and giving him a kiss on the lips. "And it goes without saying, but I love you too Sothe, and I always will."

"Good, that's how things should be." Sothe replied warmly. After that they just stood there in each other's embrace for a long time, just enjoying being with each other, before Sothe spoke up again. "So, is there anything you want to do tonight? I'm sure we could sneak out and see what this village does at night."

"Hmm, that does sound nice, but maybe another night, we do have all week here." Micaiah noted. "Actually, I was wanting to relax and take a bath, if that's alright with you." The village may be small, but this inn still had some good commodities, like separate bathing rooms for each bedroom.

"That's a good idea, I'll get it ready for you and tell you when you can get in." Sothe said as he started to walk to the bathroom. But he was stopped by Micaiah holding onto his hand. "Hm, what is it?"

"You don't understand Sothe, I want to take a bath with you." Micaiah explained. "I want to relax with you as well."

"A-Are you sure about that?" Sothe asked a bit surprised. Yes they were married, and yes they had known each other for quite a while, and yes there were times that they had seen each other naked, but this would be the first time that they would do something like this on purpose. Sothe knew that this moment would come eventually, but he still wasn't completely ready for it.

"Yes, why wouldn't I be?" Micaiah asked confidently. "Sothe, we're married. We're allowed to do these sort of things with each other without people judging us. You and only you are allowed to see me in the most intimate of ways, and I want you to. But if you're not comfortable with the idea yet, then I can bathe alone." Sothe took a moment to compose himself before he responded. Of course he eventually wanted to be intimate with Micaiah, she just kind of sprung it on him suddenly. He wasn't expecting her to be the one to initiate anything.

"I'm comfortable with it, I was just taken aback by how forward you were about it." Sothe admitted truthfully. "I guess I've never really considered how you felt on the matter with everything that has been going on recently."

"That's fair." Micaiah assured him. "But yes, I would like to take our relationship to new places, and I would like to do it tonight. And I mean more than just taking a bath together, you understand what that means right?"

"I do." Sothe replied with a nod. "And to be honest, it's something I've been thinking and dreaming about a decent amount recently. I just wanted to try and find a good time to bring it up. But I guess you beat me to it."

"Aww, you've been thinking about me." Micaiah teased him and it was his turn to blush a bit. "But good, I'm glad we got that settled. Now come on, let's get that bath ready!" So the two of them moved into the bathroom and did just that. They made sure that their were enough towels and that the water was warm enough for them to feel good before they faced each other and started taking their clothes off. The both of them were silent as they did so, but they were also both looking at each other intently as they undressed. When it was finally over they embraced again, feeling their bare skin against each other.

"You are so beautiful Micaiah." Sothe said softly. "I almost can't believe I'm lucky enough to have someone as pretty as you as my wife."

"Hey, you're pretty handsome yourself Sothe." Micaiah replied back just as softly. "No wonder you keep your stomach out so much, if you didn't your muscles might bust out of your clothes." She teased him as her hand slowly trailed up and down his abs, sending goosebumps across his body.

"You're so calm about this." Sothe replied a bit flustered. "It's like our roles have reversed."

"Well, it's like I told you Sothe, you make me feel safe. So I can be as calm as I need to be." Micaiah continued on, moving her hand down slightly lower until it landed on Sothe's length. "Hm, I don't know what I expected, but I think I like how this feels." Of course Sothe wasn't fully erect just yet, but he would be very soon if she continued on like this.

"Your hand is so warm." Sothe muttered as he moaned slightly. Then he regained some composure. "You just tell me if something is wrong or if you don't like how things are going and we'll stop okay? I don't want to hurt you Micaiah."

"I'm sure you won't." Micaiah replied, starting to stroke his dick gently. "I'm not just a frail mage like I used to be. I appreciate your concern as always Sothe, but I want you to enjoy yourself as well. So do what you please, I know if something goes wrong I can trust you to take care of things."

"Very well." Sothe confirmed before quickly picking Micaiah up in his arms and moving their heads closer for a passionate kiss. He wanted to have her in his arms all the time anyways, so if she was okay with it then he would let himself take what he wanted. They continued to kiss like that as Sothe stepped into the tub and then sat down in it, placing Micaiah in such a position so her head was resting on his shoulder and her back was on his chest.

"See, that wasn't so bad was it?" Micaiah teased him some more once they got into position. Sothe still had his arms around her body, holding her close. "And this water is so nice, don't you agree?"

"It's very pleasing, but not as pleasing as sharing a moment like this with you." Sothe noted. "But I have to ask, are you going to keep teasing me like that all night?"

"Maybe?" Micaiah replied with a cheeky grin. "Are you going to keep holding yourself back all night, causing me to tease you?"

"Fair point." Sothe said with a chuckle. "Just bear with me, this is my first time as well."

"We have all the time in the world to practice." Micaiah assured him, and that actually did make Sothe feel a bit better. He could get used to this, they just had to do it a couple times to see what worked and what didn't. That really calmed him and for another long while they just sat in the bath together and enjoyed the time spent with each other, talking about this or that, reminiscing about friends, wondering about the future, and what could be done about it. Eventually though Micaiah wanted to move a bit further so she grabbed a small towel and lathered it up with soap before handing it to Sothe. "Here, why don't we wash each other, you can go first."

"Okay." Sothe said sitting up and letting Micaiah sit up as well. He took the towel and started washing Micaiah's back with one hand, leaving the other free. "I'm always so amazed at how soft your skin is Micaiah. I mean recently we've been able to keep up with our hygiene, but it was even this way when we were on the run with the Dawn Brigade."

"I'm not sure what it is myself." Micaiah commented. "Maybe it's connected to my royal lineage, or the fact that I'm a Branded."

"Speaking of that, I know you've probably already thought it through, but what are we going to do if tonight leads us to having a child?" Sothe wondered.

"I mean, it's not like everyone knows what I am, only the important people do." Micaiah noted. "We'll just treat everything as normal until it isn't for some reason. Does that sound good to you?"

"If that's what you want to do then I'm fully committed to the idea." Sothe replied, starting to wash her lower back in the process.

"What do you personally think Sothe? Do you want to have children?" Micaiah asked. "We've never really talked about it that much before."

"I haven't really thought about it that much either to be honest. I'm not against it, I just want to make sure any child we do have has a better childhood then we did." Sothe stated. "So if we do, I'm going to be the best father I can be, plain and simple."

"I agree, and hopefully by the time we do have a child we'll have made Daein a place where that can be a reality." Micaiah added.

"I'm sure we will." Sothe replied confidently. "Can you stand up so I can get your legs?"

"Of course." So Micaiah stood up and Sothe washed her legs and feet from the back. When she felt he was done on that side she turned around and suddenly Sothe was face to face with her thighs and everything that entailed. Again, he had seen glimpses of this part of her body before, but this was the first time he was seeing it in full measure. The first thing he did was let out a nervous chuckle. "What?"

"You shave down there as well?" Sothe asked in a bit of disbelief.

"I mean, yes. When you're fighting day in and day out it gets sweaty between my legs, not having hair down there helps it stay cooler if just by a bit, wouldn't you agree?" Micaiah asked back, blushing a bit more this time.

"I guess that is a reason why I shave as well." Sothe admitted. "But it looks good, just as soft and tender as the rest of your body." Then he bit his lip for a bit in nervousness before continuing on. "Can I-?"

"Of course." Micaiah confirmed. So Sothe sat up a bit more in the tub and brought his hands up to her hips before slowly moving them towards her thigh. Micaiah made sure to stay in an open enough stance that he could explore around and eventually she let out a soft moan of her own as his fingers continued to get closer to her clit and pussy. Sothe didn't know exactly what he was doing of course, so when he stumbled upon her clit and brushed by it, making Micaiah moan a bit louder, he figured he would keep doing it and see how it went.

"This part of your body is quite sensitive isn't it?" Sothe wondered as he continued to work her clit gently. "Does this feel good for you Micaiah?"

"It feels wonderful! Keep going Sothe!" She moaned out, very pleased with what was going on. So Sothe continued on until he got an idea. He didn't know if it was a good idea, but he did it anyways, slipping one of his fingers into Micaiah's body and moving it around a bit to feel around. "Ahhhhh!" Micaiah moaned out even louder. She might have been a bit more ready for this moment, but it was her first time as well.

"Should I stop?" Sothe wondered at the sudden explosion of moans coming from Micaiah.

"No, keep going!" Micaiah urged him. "It feels so good!" Sothe took that as a sign he was doing something right so he inserted his finger even deeper inside her body and the moans increased in volume and intensity. He had a free hand still so he used that to go back to massaging her clit back and forth and Micaiah couldn't help but squeeze her legs together in pleasure to try and hold on just a bit longer. "Oh Sothe! Please! Just a bit more!"

"Alright, how about this then?" Sothe replied before he inserted another finger into her body to go along with the first one. That did the trick and mere moments later he could feel her insides tighten up around his fingers and some fluid leaking out as she moaned out one last time before calming down again. Her legs were getting a bit weak so she sat back down in the tub, still facing Sothe though.

"Hmm, it seems I need to work up some endurance to last longer than that." Micaiah noted when she caught her breath eventually. "That was really good Sothe, did you know that would happen?"

"Not a clue, I was just playing it by ear honestly." Sothe responded.

"Lucky you then." Micaiah said with a smile before kissing him on the lips. When she leaned in for it though she noticed that Sothe's dick was quite hard now, he had probably gotten excited from what just happened. "Maybe I should do the same for you?"

"How about not." Sothe noted. "I have the feeling that I'm going to last about as long as you did, so I'd rather have you getting pleasure as well and doing what you planned on in the first place. Why don't we hurry up and get clean and then we can move this to the bed where we can move around better? You should be rested enough to go again by that time right?"

"Well, we'll find out won't we?" Micaiah replied. So the two of them washed each other quickly, but slow enough that they actually got clean, stepped out of the tub, and dried each other off as well. Then Sothe took Micaiah by the hand and led her to the bed they would be sharing for the week. He sat on the edge of it, his dick still pretty hard, and wondered what would happen next.

"So, how do you want to do this?" He asked.

"I'd like to be able to kiss you and look you in the eyes as we do it." Micaiah noted. "I think if you just stay sitting like that and I sit on your lap we can do just that."

"I would love that." Sothe replied. He moved a bit back on the bed to give Micaiah space to spread her legs and have them supported on the bed and when she was ready got closer and did just that, lowering herself down enough that Sothe's dick was rubbing against her entrance. "Just take it slow, I've heard that it can hurt the first time."

"I will." Micaiah assured him. She adjusted herself just a bit more before lowering herself down just a bit more, allowing the tip of Sothe's dick to slip inside her pussy for the first time. She gasped and moaned like she had before when it was his fingers, but this feeling was different. It was much more warm and filling than just a few fingers. "You doing okay Sothe?" She asked when she was used to the feeling.

"Your body is so warm and inviting, it feels like I'm melting already." Sothe replied, feeling good as well. "I apologize in advance if I don't last too long."

"No need, I know this must be very stimulating for you." Micaiah told him softly before giving him another kiss. "Just breathe deeply and do what your body tells you to do, alright?"

"Alright, I can do that." Sothe said before she lowered herself down even more on his length. He moaned a bit louder the lower she went, but eventually she got down all the way and he could catch his breath again. "Goddess, this is so much more than I thought it would be! How are you feeling, is everything good?"

"Everything feels heavenly." Micaiah stated with a long moan as she finally took all of Sothe inside of her. It was a really nice feeling being connected so intimately like this, she felt like they could just be like this for a while and it would be just fine. "Let's just stay like this for a bit, I like being this close to you Sothe."

"I can work with that." Sothe said with a smile since he was loving this feeling as well. But instead of just sitting there like that the two of them started kissing, this time going at each other passionately. Arms were wrapped around each other, their lips were moving around trying to find the best angle to stay connected, and their tongues were intertwined in a dance that only two lovers such as themselves could pull off. Even with the doubts both of them may have had, this right here was the perfect moment. It was just the two of them together, they didn't have to worry about anything or anyone else, they could focus on themselves and what they wanted and it was such a freeing feeling for the both of them. For the first time in years they could just be together and be in love.

"Oh Sothe, I love you so much!" Micaiah breathed as they pulled away from the kiss.

"I love you more!" Sothe breathed back before he moved his hands from Micaiah's back and up to her chest.

"Sothe, your hands, so firm." Micaiah moaned at the sudden touch, but it wasn't a bad feeling, quite the opposite.

"I'm going to make you mine, forever, are you okay with that?" Sothe asked in a breathy tone in response.

"That's all I've ever wanted." Micaiah replied truthfully, a bit surprised at Sothe's sudden burst of confidence. If that surprised her then what Sothe did next really caught her off guard. He used the hands he had on her chest to raise her body up and then moved them away to have her fall back down. He did it slowly at first, but eventually he picked up the pace so he was massaging her chest and bouncing her up and down on his dick at the same time. "Goddess! Sothe, it's like you've changed into a different person. But I like it! Keep going!"

"As you wish!" Sothe moaned as he continued on. Micaiah did end up helping him a bit eventually, moving herself up and down on his dick so he didn't have to use as much energy, but once she did that she felt him start to buck and thrust from his hips and that just drove her more crazy. In Sothe's case, his mind was in a state that felt like it was racing but feeling blank at the same time. All he really cared about in this moment was being with Micaiah and making her feel good. He didn't really care if he was feeling good, though he for sure was because he could feel something building up inside of his body with each time Micaiah came down on him. Eventually he could tell that he was at his limit and he felt he should let her know. "M-Micaiah! I don't know how much longer I can hold on. If you don't want me inside when I go off-!"

"Nonsense! Give me all of your love Sothe! Make me yours and no one else's!" Micaiah cut him off, wrapping her arms around him in the process so they could be as close as possible. Sothe tried his best to hold on as long as he could, but as soon as Micaiah gave him another kiss he couldn't and his hips started to buck wildly as his cock pulsed and throbbed before shooting his seed into her body with his orgasm. Feeling the fluids enter her body made Micaiah cum again as well and she tightened up around Sothe's cock, accepting what consequences may come from their actions. They both were a moaning mess and eventually they couldn't sit in that position for any longer so Sothe fell back onto the bed with Micaiah landing on his chest along with him. Once again they shared a quiet set of moments together peacefully before one of them spoke up again.

"I love you Sothe." Micaiah stated once again as breathless as she was. "Don't you ever think that I don't. Thank you for going along with what I wanted to do tonight, I know it was probably a bit much, but I enjoyed it and I hope you did as well."

"As long as you enjoyed-" Sothe started, but he thought better of it, knowing she wouldn't want to hear that. "I loved every moment of it. I want to do it again, soon. I didn't think I could feel any closer to you than I already was, but I was wrong. I want your body as close to mine for as long as we can, I want you as close to me as possible for the rest of time, everyone else be damned. I love you Micaiah and I want you to know it from more than my words and actions."

"Sothe." Micaiah said softly as she cupped his cheek in her hand softly. "I want that too. I want us to be as close as possible as much as possible because I love you that much as well. Who knew that me suggesting this would bring us even closer than we already were?"

"Who cares? All that matters is that we have each other as usual, and that's enough for me." Sothe said getting a bit back to normal. "And sorry for going a bit overboard there at the end."

"Sothe, you can go as overboard as you want with me, you've earned that right as my advisor, my friend, and most importantly as my lover." Micaiah assured him. "I want to see everything you have for me, so don't hold yourself back and give me your all. You can do that right?"

"I'll do anything to see you happy and smiling, you know that." Sothe assured her back.

"Good." Micaiah said satisfied with his answer. Then she gave off a yawn. "Hmm, I'm pretty tired now, how about you?"

"Yeah, let's get some sleep." Sothe agreed. "You want to get some clothes on first though?"

"No, I'd rather have you be my warmth tonight Sothe, just like it used to be and just like it should be." Micaiah stated.

"Very well, you can lean on me as always."
