Work Text:
“Fuck” you sighed as you flopped on the couch, irritated as you watch your character on the screen fly off the screen, marking your defeat, it had been a couple of hours since you agreed to play with Sesa, what you did not know was how much of a tryhard he can be. You feel a few reassuring pats on your back and a hearty laugh from the Vouivran man.
You sat with him in his apartment, having been dating for a while it was time for you to finally stay at his place; a sort of small apartment in Sargon befitting a man of the working class which was a bit of a shock to you considering one would think his line of work would make him rake in enough to afford a better place yet you do not question it as it was not that bad, in fact it was quite a cozy apartment and not so cramped to make you feel claustrophobic.
“Don’t fret, y/n, you did well and that is all that matters” He says in a way that does comfort you, yet he pulls a shit eating grin “Besides…I did tell you I was a pro at Hyper Crasher Sisters.” He proceeds to ruffle your hair, eliciting a groan from you.
You grumble and avert your gaze from Sesa, pouting. “I did not think you would beat me for 2 hours straight…” for you it was not about losing, you do not care if you lose to him it is how you feel inadequate for him, to be participating in something so innocuous as is one of his interests and suck at it, it was one of the things that added up to your concern of being a proper partner for him.
His grin falters a bit and he sighs, taking your hand in his “I know, it was probably shitty of me to not notice that you were not having fun as I kicked your virtual ass, maybe next time you would want me to go easier on you?” The question being one that tends to be deployed as a taunt towards an opponent yet his expression showed nothing but sincerity.
You shake your head and air out a pathetic chuckle “No need…I do not want you to go easy on me, it is just…” you trail off, looking around the room as to avert your gaze away in shame “You do not think I am not enough for you…right?”
His hand squeezes yours tighter and his eyes narrow, looking at you with a determined expression “Y/n…you are always enough for me, I do not know where this came from but be assured that I will never see you as lesser than me.”
You look up at him “N-Not even if I am not as good in games as you are? Or not a super genius that can assemble weapons in the blink of an eye?”
Sesa laughs, raising an eyebrow in amusement “Is that what this is about? Because I assure you, it does not matter if I have to have to handhold you all the way in a co-op game, to carry you is such a great honor of me to have as your boyfriend” he says, reaching out to lovingly caress your hair “‘Sides, I would never see my beautiful, smart, and anxiety ridden girlfriend as a lesser being compared to me, you do not need to be good at what I am to be enough for me.” he reaches out to lovingly caress your head, his hands raking through your locks with nothing but the upmost care.
You feel his tail coil around your waist, making you position yourself closer to him, sighing, you lean on his chest and hug him, taking in his scent that you have grown so fond of. His hand slides down to your back where he rubs circles on you; as he holds you close, he looks out the window, seeing the starry night sky blanket the city.
He looks down at you and whispers “How about we call it a day for tonight?”
The moment you nod, he turns off the TV and console and scoops you up over his shoulder, making you yelp as he takes you to his bedroom, there he proceeds to lower you on the bed, your back gently hitting the mattress before he climbs up beside you, he gazes at you with such a soft expression it makes you swoon. Suddenly, his lips are on yours and he is kissing you as if he had gone days without your affection, then he pulls away, cupping your cheek.
You put your head against his chest, your eyes struggling to remain open as you are comforted by the feeling of his chest rising and falling, he hums.
“If I were to tell you all the things I love about you I would not even be halfway done by morning.”
