Stay a Little Longer With Me

~Finale~

Julian was hanging out with the apprentice earlier that day, nearly getting caught by Nadia since the apprentice had convinced him to go through his old desk at the castle, trying to recall any memories from the night of the Count's death. Julian and the apprentice thankfully both got away in time since Asra come in and saved the day. His cheeks had a light dust of pink on them, thinking of the other male, recalling their relationship that they used to have. Julian misses that, he yearns for it. He misses Asra taking control of him, touching him, kissing him, making love to him. His lips sort of form a frown as he continues to think of the white-haired male.

"Hey?!" The apprentice raises their voice, snapping their fingers in front of Julian's startled face. Caught not paying attention, his face flushes slightly in embarrassment and stutters out

"E-erm yes y/n?" He looks expectantly at the apprentices clearly annoyed face.

"C' mon Julian, let's escape and head back to my shop." They say, returning Julian back to the task at hand.

He gives a small nod in agreement and they make their way back to the shop

~Timeskip~

The apprentice and Julian have finally arrived in front of their shop. Julian looks at the key in his palm, remembering that he had recovered it from his desk earlier.

"Follow me" The apprentice beckons Julian inside.

Julian removes his coat, hooking it onto the hanger.

"Welcome back, Julian and y/n"

Julian's ears perk up, hearing the warm voice welcome them. He recognizes the voice that belonged to Asra. Julian's head whips around as his eyes are brought to the sight of the white-haired male. He has a playful glint in his eyes and a slight smirk on his face. The apprentice doesn't notice this and just gives a quick hello back then disappears into the back room, leaving the two of them alone. Asra walks up to the other nervous male, crossing his arms and leans against the counter.

"How's it been," He pauses for dramatic effects and then looks up at Julian through the hair covering his eyes "Ilya?~" he finishes.

Julian swallowed hard and stammers out "Oh y-ya know, the usual. Running from Nadia's guards and all that jazz."

Arsa chuckles as Julian's nervous stutter.

"Erm, how about you?" Julian manages out.

Asra lifts a brow and replies "Just shop work is all."

Julian can feel the others intense gaze on him. Too nervous to look back at him in the eyes, Julian's gaze shifts to the ground. Asra walks over to to the other like a predator stalking its prey.

"Why won't you look at me, Ilya?" He asks, using his hand to grab at Julian's chin and turn his head to look at him.

His slight smirk from earlier is now a full-on grin, making Julian's mouth water and knees go weak.

"Umm..."

Julian gets cut off as he feels the other's lips press against his in a slow kiss. Julian lets himself get lost into the kiss, forgetting everything around him and relishing the feeling of Asra's lips kissing his. Julian can feel Asra pushing him forward, landing him between the wall and Asra. Asra grabs tightly at Julian's wrists, pushing them above his head. Julian lets a whimper out past his lips as his hands are being pinned to the wall by Asra's strong hands.

"Hey Ilya, remember when you said you'd do anything for me, right?"

Julian nods his head as he recalls the event.
