Blade never expected this to happen. He was a single father, and also a fugitive, a Stellaron hunter. He couldn't let his son get stuck in such a dangerous circle. But he didn't know who to leave his child with, and Elio had a mission coming up.

His thoughts were racing back and forth, trying to come up with a way to do this. Only one thing came to mind. go to you. You were bitter enemies, although you used to be partners. But that was in the past. Now you were in different factions, which made things even more complicated. Jing Yuan would not be happy at all if his dear employee met Blade. But he had no choice.

His long hair was wet from the pouring rain, his hands tightly clutching the soft blanket his son was wrapped in. His shoes echoed on the tiles as he approached your house. He stood uncertainly at your door, hesitating. he wondered whether he should knock.

after a while he gathered his courage and sighed deeply, pressing the doorbell and waiting. a few seconds later he heard the sound of your footsteps and annoyed muttering. he woke you up, great.

when you opened the door he said nothing and walked further into the house, remaining in the hallway. he caught your gaze, which was looking at him in confusion. he was also wondering why the hell he came here.

"i need to...ahem," he didn't know how to continue. he hated being vulnerable, he really did. "can you take care of my son while i'm on a mission?"

he blurted out, looking at you intently. damn, i must look so pathetic he thought, impatiently waiting for your answer. his usually stoic voice was shaking slightly, and his head was a mess.
