MY BOSS FELL FOR ME| CHILDE X READER| MODERN AU|

-Chap 7|long drive home-

A/n: this is a complete follow up of the last chapter sorry!!

"I might miss my bus" she said under her breathe while walking away. Childe looked up, as he realized that she might be missing her bus.

"Oh, you're taking the bus? I can give you a ride, [y/n]"...

He suddenly wanted to spend more time with her. But he was also worried that it would be unprofessional for him as her boss to invite her to spend time together outside of work even if this seemed completely innocent to him right now

Childe was having trouble deciding what to say, but he couldn't just allow his assistant to miss her bus...

"No I'll make it" she smile reassuring felling embarrassed at the idea of getting a ride with her boss. Childe sighed.

"But it's freezing outside, and you're clearly tired. I'm happy to offer you a ride, honestly." He tried to think about how he should word it exactly, as he still liked the idea of spending more time with her.

Childe cleared his throat again. "Please let me drive you home? I insist on it." He hoped his words sounded okay.

"Ok, fine" she admitted in defeat.
Childe nodded, as he realized that his offer had been accepted.

"Alright, let me just get my car keys and we'll be on our way." Childe didn't hesitate for a second, as he quickly got up and went to get his keys from his desk.

Childe's car was parked right outside, and he wondered how he should start the car... He felt a bit embarrassed by that, since he had driven people before and it was a very expensive car, but he couldn't help but feel a bit nervous now..

she looked shocked at his car "I new you were rich but not this rich..."

"Oh, this car? It's not a big deal..."
Childe cleared his throat, as he walked towards his car now. He couldn't help but be embarrassed by the fact that his assistant was shocked by something like this.

"Just... just get in the car, [y/n]. It's all good..."

He opened the passenger door, as he waited for her to get in the car. "I can't even afford a car" she laughed hopping into his car. Childe closed the door behind her, and he chuckled a bit too.

"Yeah, it's nice, but it's really not that big of a deal..." He walked to the driver's side of the car, as he started the engine.

"I'll just drive you home and then I'll head back to the office, okay?" Childe started to drive, as he wondered how to start the conversation.

"Ok, yeah"she said while showing him her apartment address. Childe nodded, as he drove towards her apartment with [y/n] in the car.

He couldn't help but wonder what to say as he looked over to [y/n] now.

He cleared his throat. "So... um..."

Childe paused for a second, as he tried to figure out what to say. He suddenly had so many things he wanted to tell her now, and he couldn't wait to hear what she had to say too.

Childe felt a little bit nervous now, since he didn't know how the conversation would go.

"About the notes from earlier" she said trying to make conversation. She was still quite embarrassed after earlier on when she didn't have any answers so she wanted to reclaim herself, especially when her boss was driving her home.

"Oh, right. That..." He paused for a second, as he thought about what to say now.

Childe glanced at [y/n], and he felt his heart start to beat a little faster now.
