For once in the span of 7 years did you have a good night's rest. There were no nightmares to torment you, no waking up in cold sweats, no wondering if you had accidentally woken up a worried Bex. It was all just a calming pitch black throughout the entirety of the night, one that soon turned into a bright sunny morning as you awoke.
Stifling a yawn, you realized the comforting strong arms that would wrap around you were missing, and your right side of the mattress was empty. You sat up rather quickly, noticing that Bex hadn't woken you up with her upbeat attitude either. Standing up, you stretched your limbs and made your way to the 'kitchen'.
It was anything but a kitchen, but Bexie had decided it was her kitchen.
Though right before entering the area, you could hear the familiar giggles of your little redhead.
"Monny always makes happy faces with the veggies." Bex's tiny voice rung out, and as you peered around the corner of the room you were met with the most adorable sight you had ever seen. Vi had your little one propped up on her side as she concocted something, the act seeming so natural it was as though she had done this since forever. With every move she was careful handling Bexie, holding her with so much love and care.
"Oh yeah? I bet you I can make an even better happy face than hers." Vi replied jokingly, her free hand stirring the contents inside the pot.
Bex gasped, shushing her.
"Don't let Ekko hear you or it will become a competition! He'll say he can do a better one than yours, and between you and me, he always beats monny, so he'll win you too! He's just too good."
She whispered.
Vi chuckled.
"Alright, alright. I'll make a decent happy face. But how does one make a happy face with soup?!"
Bex laughed.
"It's simple! You take carrots and line them up as a smile, then you put two aspuguses together to make the eyes, duh."
"Aspuguses, got it." Vi mumbled, a bright smile on her face. You took that as your cue to walk in properly.
"Revealing my secrets are we Bex?"
You exclaimed, making her squeal.
"Nooo! I'm sorry monny, it's just I felt bad."
You laughed at her statement, greeting both Vi and Bex with a peck to the cheek.
"Mornin', I hope you don't mind but I decided to make some breakfast, since Bex was very eager for it and we didn't wanna wake you up." Vi chimed as she put an excited Bex down, the tiny child quick to prop herself up on a rickety stool to serve herself a bowl of soup with a smiley of carrots and 'aspuguses'.
"You still know how to make the soup?!" You queried, noticing the few familiar ingredients Vi used.
"Oh come on! You'd always get sick, so I had plenty of practice."
"That's not true! It was mostly Mylo, besides I was always the one making it."
Vi hummed.
"Well then I guess I gained plenty of practice from observing you."
You scoffed sarcastically,
"When weren't you observing me you little stalker?! Always drooling over me and whatnot.."
You claimed, the statement earning you a playful nudge.
"Not like you weren't doing the same." She stated, raising a brow with a smirk.
Laughing in defeat, you admitted it was true.
"You were nice to look at."
You quipped, snaking your arms around her waist as you gazed into her eyes.
They seemingly widened at your comment.
"Were? Ouch." She spat, motioning a figurative dagger made out of air to her chest.
"I don't know... it's something about your tattoo, maybe your change of hair..."
She seemingly squinted, trying to see what you were getting at.
"Now you're delightfully nice to look at."
She rolled her eyes playfully, meeting your lips with yours. The kiss didn't last very long given how a tiny voice rung out with urgency.
"Monny, other monny, can you please get a room?" Bex stated, her face being one of confusion and disgust. You couldn't help it as your heart melted a little at the new nickname Bex had given Vi, but you still laughed at her suggestion. "Our bad Bex, I assure you it won't happen again." You affirmed, glancing over at Vi to see the smuggest look on her face.
Only rolling your eyes sarcastically, you simply served yourself a bowl without a smiley. Vi though, decided to serve herself a bowl with a side of happy face. "Damn Bex, I think I made a better one than you.." Vi claimed, showcasing her wobbly face floating atop the soup. Bex gasped.
"Nuh uh! Mine was for sure better!"
"Hmm, Cupcake, what do you think? Who did it better?" You thought about it, placing your hand on your chin.
"Sorry, but Bex definitely won this round. The student can't outdo the teacher, hon."
Vi muttered a joking 'damnit', whereas Bex just giggled.
"I told you so!"
"Yeah, yeah whatever Bexie. You win, this time..."
Just then, Ekko walked in with a rather surprised look on his face. "What smells so good?" He pressed.
"My famous soup." Vi stated, a proud look played on her face. "Excuse me?!" You exclaimed, raising your brows in bewilderment.
"Fine. Y/n's famous soup, but I made it."
Vi corrected herself, rolling her eyes.
"That's better."
Ekko just chuckled, quick to serve himself a bowl.
"So uh, what about the Caitlyn girl? Should I go bring her up a bowl-?"
Ekko turned to me with a 'are you serious' face.
"Tell me you're joking."
"Hey! Sure she may be a Piltie but that doesn't mean we have to be inhumane... keep in mind she's helping us out, AND got Vi out of that hellhole!"
Vi snorted.
"Wow, I didn't take you for someone to consider inhumanity against people from Piltover, especially Enforcers."
You punched her shoulder playfully, but still made sure to add force.
"That was years ago, and I was mad, rightfully so!"
Vi gave Ekko a knowing look, trying to hold back that damn smirk.
"Shut up, both of you."
"We didn't say anything!" Ekko claimed, swirling around his spoon inside the soup.
"Yeah well, I know what you two were thinking."
You stated, standing up to serve the blue haired girl a bowl.
"Don't look Bex! Monny is doing something unnatural." Ekko ushered, covering both of her eyes. Bex just let out a squeal, trying to pry his hands off as giggles emitted from her.
You sighed, a slight smile breaking through as you had to admit their banter was a little funny.
You were about to step out the room and out into the outside before you watched Vi stand up.
"Uh, I'm pretty sure I can handle a bowl of soup."
You perked, looking at her suspiciously.
"Oh, I know. I'm just tagging along to make sure you don't beat the shit out of our accomplice, I'm very much aware of your history towards Enforcers." She replied, sending you a wink.
You scoffed, shaking your head.
"I cannot believe you."
Stepping outside, you headed upstairs to the spare room the girl was in.
You knocked on the rickety door, and in a matter of seconds the door opened up.
Her eyes seemingly widened, and you sensed her nervousness increase.
"Oh, um, good morning! Did you... did you need my assistance?" She asked softly, smoothing down the wrinkles of her pants.
Poor girl, you thought. Caitlyn was clearly trying to make a good impression on you, and she didn't want to disappoint by feeding into the stereotype of other individuals from Piltover, let alone an Enforcer.
"Don't worry Caitlyn, I'm not here to bother you. I figured you were hungry, so I brought you some soup." You stated, a small smile on your lips.
Truly you understood why Vi seemed surprised by your behavior, hell, you hated Enforcers. But this girl genuinely didn't seem like a threat, and your intuition was always accurate.
"I'd check if it's poisoned by the way.. Y/n here is a little scary."
Your eyes widened and you immediately smacked Vi's head.
"Quit your shit!"
"Ow- okay, okay!"
You rolled your eyes, handing over the contents to Caitlyn in an apologetic manner.
"Don't listen to her, I'm sure by now you get a hint of how sarcastic Vi can be." You affirmed, sending Vi the stank eye.
She smiled, grabbing the bowl.
"Thank you, and don't worry, I've gotten plenty of her dramatics."
Caitlyn uttered, her eyes seemingly understanding.
You sighed in relief.
"Great! We'll get out of your hair now, see you."
Turning your heel, you descended the stairs after her door closed.
"You're just so hilarious today, huh?" You mentioned.
There was no reply, only the feel of her hand grab your wrist.
"Oh, you know you love me."
She declared, turning your frame around so that you'd face her.
You raised your brows, a skeptical look on your face.
You looked the other way, purposely trying to annoy her, desperately trying not to laugh or break your facade.
She took ahold of your chin, practically forcing you to look directly into her eyes.
"I'm sorry Cupcake, don't be mad." She whispered, her puppy eyes ever so present.
She was definitely doing this on purpose.
You tried to resist, but couldn't.
Sighing in defeat, you let out the smile you failed to hold back.
"Okay, okay fine."
She grinned, closing off the space between the both of you.
"I love it when you get all feisty."
She whispered, about to press her lips against yours before you pressed a finger against them.
"And I love you, even though you're a little clown." You grinned.
"I know." She affirmed, kissing you yet again.
Oh, you could never get tired of her even if you tried.

A/N: This was meant to be a silly filler, but I actually kind of like this one a lot, lol.
I was also thinking of creating another story whilst we wait for the second season to come out, one preferably with another character voiced by our lovely Hailee Steinfeld..? 🕷️🤫
