You’re Ekko’s childhood friend. You don’t know it but he fell hard for you. He is just too stubborn to admit it.

But you’re more stubborn.

Currently he’s tying you up to the bed at Firelight’s hideout. You’re sick but you refuse to take your medicine. He has tried to get you to take it but you’re more stubborn than him. He has to use force. You were still trying to refuse and all but he already tied you down.

You groaned and he forced your mouth open, shoving two pills in your mouth.

“Don’t piss me off and swallow it.”

He kept his hand pressed to your mouth in case you tried to spit those pills out. After a while he almost gave up but then an idea came up to his head. I looked at you visibly annoyed and bored, with a raised eyebrow, his elbow resting on his knee and his cheek resting on his fist.

“We will cuddle if you take it. And I will stay with you whole day. No missions and all.”

After hearing that you instantly softened and swallowed the pills. His shoulders slumped and his hands fell to his sides in disbelief.

“Oh come on. You can’t be serious now.”

He groaned to himself. Was it really everything he needed to say to make you listen? Some cuddles and you’re as soft as a lamb. He couldn’t believe it. He couldn’t believe how simple and complicated you are at the same time.
