You and Ekko had been out and about all day, running around the undercity and going out as usual. Keeping watch in the undercity, aiding the sickly on the streets, and even some self indulging with shopping. The evening settled in the undercity, and the two of you now sat in his personal quarters in the firelight base.

Ekko sat behind you while you sat before him on the comfort of his bed, his hands moving intricately through the strands of your hair as you had asked him to fix it after the long day. As tedious as the process was, Ekko never minded as he got to spend time with you. He made sure not to pull on your hair hard as to not hurt your scalp and ruin the comfortable mood that had set in.

“I hope you like everything you got today.” He said, interrupting your blabbering of a crazy story, not wanting you to get too far into your head, especially not before bed. A brief chuckle escaped him as he looked at all the knick knacks and plushies now around his room. “You really make me give into just about anything, you know that?”
