It had been two days since Adalwolfa and Melanie had returned from Piltover. Instead of going to the Institute of War, Melanie had decided to stay with Adalwolfa in Zaun. It was something she had been thinking about for the most of their day in Piltover, whether to go to the Institute and leave the woman she loved behind or stay with her and give up the Institute and the chance to become a Summoner. In the end, her love for Adal had won and she had decided to stay with her in Zaun.
She was now walking around in Adal's apartment, looking for things to do while she waited for Adal to return from her work. She looked at the clock, "Hmm... Soon time for dinner... I wonder if she has any wine at home." She thought to herself and walked over to the cabinet where most of the alcohol was stored, opening it she browsed the bottles and found one she liked. Nodding to herself she took it out and walked with it into the kitchen. Glancing at the clock again she decided it was time to start with a dinner, deciding it was her turn to make it today.
Walking up to the freezer she begins to look through what they have at home. After some looking she pulls out some frozen chicken. Thinking she can do something with that she looks through some more cabinets, finding some rice and some Parmesan cheese.
Putting some more things on the counter she looks at what she have in front of her. She puts the chicken in water for it to defrost and begins to boil some water for the rice. Casting another glance at the clock she sees that it's almost six o'clock, thinking she wants to be done before Adal comes home she begins her cooking.
----------------------------------------
Around thirty minutes later she's done with most of the cooking. The kitchen being a lot dirtier than it was when she began, and so was Melanie. She looks at the finished chicken and at the clock, "Yeah I got time for a shower." She thought to herself and finished her cooking before hurrying into the shower.
After the quick shower she gets dressed again and begins to wait for Adal to return. Hoping Adal will like her cooking she keeps tapping her heel against the floor most of the time she's waiting on Adal.
Adal came back to the apartment a little tired she sat beside Mel as she took off her shoes before hugging her “Hello dear~<3 I’m death tired” she said nuzzling against her chest “I had a heavy day at work…how was your day?”
Melanie hugged Adal back as she got hugged by her. "Well, I had a nice calm day today, not doing much." She replied and stroked Adal's hair. "Are you hungry? I prepared a nice dinner for us." She whispered and held her close to her. She hadn't expected Adal to be so tired when she came home, but it didn't really matter.
“I am but I wanna hug you right now~” she said still nuzzling against her lover’s figure “You are soft and comfortable~” she said almost falling sleep “But I am hungry what did you make honey~<3” she asked refusing to let go of Mel.
Melanie hugged Adal back, holding her tightly against her, she noticed that Adal was sleepy, it must have been a long day. Melanie lift up Adal with her arms under her form, stumbling slightly, she was far from as strong as her.
"Well, we had some chicken, so I made something from that." She replied and walked into the kitchen with her lover. The table was covered with a fine white cloth, along with three burning candles that lit up the otherwise dark kitchen. The smell of cooked chicken would hit Adal's nose shortly after they walked in.
Melanie walked up to the table and pulled out a chair with her foot before placing Adal down on it. Melanie then walked up to the kitchen counter and took out the wine bottle and poured up two glasses, placing one in front of Adal and one where Melanie was going to sit she turned back to the counter before returning for the last time with the chicken, placing it down in front of Adal. She sat down in her own spot and folded her hands above the plate, looking dreamingly into Adal's eyes.
Adal was slightly surprised by Mel’s strength but the let herself be carried to the table and spoiled after all before meeting her it was rare for her to be spoiled or treated with care and she was going to enjoy it. She waited until Mel had finished serving the dinner and she started to eat enjoying the flavor, not the latest of Demacian or Ionian food but delicious anyway.
“Is the best I have had in a while~” she responded to her she was happy to still have Mel by her side but somewhere she felt a little guilty for concerning herself with the possibility that she might sometime might regret her decision of not going to the institute of war.
Melanie smiled at the compliment, small things like that made her happy. And when it came from her beloved one, it made her even happier. She too began eating, it was good indeed. After having taking a few bites and swallowing she puts away the fork and knife to take a sip from her wine glass and smiled.
So far the day had been good, but this made it perfect. She blinked and looked Adal in the eyes before picking up her fork and knife again and taking a few more bites, eating in silence felt nice. She looked up and put a hand on Adal's, just barely noticing her anxiety.
Adalwolfa forced herself to smile but she knew that Mel knew her better than to fall for it. “I’m just concerned…I would have wanted to follow you to the Institute instead of making you chose….” She said looking down “I fear that one day you might come to regret making this choice…”
Melanie smiled softly at Adal, that she cared for her gave Melanie a warm feeling. "Adal, love. I wont regret staying with you. Had I left for the Institute I would have regretted not staying with you." She said calmly and squeezed Adal's hand a little. "As long as I am with you I will be happy."
She smiled again before moving her hand back to the fork and continued to eat, sipping some wine in between the bites.
“Are you sure” Adal said looking to Mel with almost begging eyes “I…I am that important to you?” she had already eaten half the food in her plate in between words and now was more concerned about Mel that about feeding.
Melanie had just finished her plate, she was hungrier than she thought. She blinked a few times and looked up at Adal from her plate. "You, my love. Is the most important person in my life." She said and smiled before finishing her wine glass as well. Once she was done she got up from her chair and moved to Adal's side of the table and sat down on a chair next to her.
"I love you so much, Adal. I'd hate myself for leaving you." She said and hugged her tightly.
“Melanie…I love you and I don’t know if I deserve you…but I will try my best to make you happy” she said leaving her plate aside and hugging her girlfriend “I love you…I don’t know how this grew so fast inside of me but I don’t think I could live without you anymore” she said hugging her lover with all the streghnt she could muster without hurting her tears of happiness running through her cheeks. “Thank you…for the dinner.”
Melanie smiled and tightened her grip around Adal a little in an attempt to match her strength. Putting her head on Adal's shoulder and stroking her back she felt Adal's tears running down her cheek and onto Melanie's.
She smiled and moved her head back a bit. "You deserve me more than anyone, love. So please, don't cry and be happy instead. I can't be happy alone" Melani said lowly and kissed Adal deeply.
“Sorry Mel there…are so many things I haven’t ever told you…I don’t deserve you…I…I want to tell you all…this valor might be partly the wine but…I I just want to come clean…” She said trying to hold back her tears trying to stay true to herself letting her go of that strong hug as while she came clean and told her the little bits of her past to Melanie that she had omitted on purpose “listen I haven’t…been completely sincere with you…before I meet you…I was a gang member…I killed a lot of people for the wrong reasons...I used to sell weapons…All the wrongs things you could do in Zaun I did them…I wasn’t…I’m not a good person…the only reason I’m not a complete monster is because…of you I have…started to change a little but…I…I don’t want you to be with me without knowing me…I want you to know me…all of me.”
Melanie was a bit shocked when Adal said she hadn't been sincere with her. She nodded and listened to what Adal had to say. She had not expected her to be a gang member but it explained why she had all the security and that phone that always was silent.
Melanie hugged Adal tightly as Melanie noticed that Adal was just barely holding her tears back. Patting her love's back Melanie sighed slightly. "Adal, you are a good person. I love you, not someone who you were but the one you are right now." Melanie continued to pat and stroke Adal on her back. "If you need to cry, cry. I wont judge you, we are all broken. It's what we do to fix it that matters, not how we broke."
