Feeling Strange (Crypto x Mirage)

Chapter 6: "Salang "

(Mirage's  POV) 

"Hey , we're here. " I hear Crypto say as he softly nudges  me to wake up. "Okay , okay I'm up " I tell him as I get up and yawn. We walk infront of the door, as we see it slowly opening .  When it finally opened all the apex legends (other then us) were standing on our sides, clapping and cheering for us. Crypto was quiet and  had his hands in his pockets, while Ajay and I were  waving at everyone. After everyone congratulated us; everyone went home, while Crypto and I stayed at headquarters. "Hey I think its time to hit the road Crypto," I say, getting up from a bench we were sitting on. "Okay" he responded, getting up too. We decide to walk to my apartment since it was a block way from here. As we're walking to my apartment, we made small talk. "Soo Crypto, whatcha want me to call you? Without saying your name of course." I ask him. He turned blushed lightly for a bit before answer my question, it was adorable though. "...Salang , I'II tell you what it means like the end of the night." he said softly. "Salang huh? Okay ~ Salang" I said , winking at him. After like 5 mins, we finally made it.

(Crypto's POV) 

"Hey Salang, what time is it?" Elliot asked. I took out my phone to check the time. " Um, 7:15 p.m. ." I tell him. "Crap , we need to hurry." he said, grabbing my arm.  He took us to the back of his building where there was a ladder leading to the roof. "Come on, we're gonna miss it!" Mirage said to me, as he was climbing the ladder. I follow him up to the roof as I wondered what he wanted to show me. As I reach the last bit of bars, Elliot helped me up. "Look, isn't beautiful?" he said to sitting down in the concrete, pointing at it. 

It was the sun setting, from up here you can see everything. I sat next to Mirage as we watched it go down. "Everyday at 7:45 p.m. the sunsets, fun fact." he said smiling. Should I tell him? No it's too soon. Or even- No I can't. "Hey Salang, what where you saying to me at the dropship?"he asked. I turned red, "What-do you mean? I asked him. "I remember I was half asleep when felt you touching my hair and  said something Korean, what was it?" he told me. Shit, I thought he was fully asleep. I ended hiding my face as it got warmer. "I might neo gat-i  alot Mirage. That's what I said" I responded to him. "I mean,... please say everything in English." Elliot said blushing too.  We were face to face. "I might...like you a lot Mirage" I told him, still shaking and becoming a red mess. I closed my eyes and as I turned away. But just as I was, Mirage grabbed my face. "I like you too Tae" I heard him say. He was really happy. After a couple of seconds, I felt something on me. As I opened my eyes, I saw that Elliot had kissed me. We ended in this cuddling position where Elliot was behind wrapping his arm around me. It felt nice, I enjoyed it. "Andd,  aren't you gonna tell me what Salang means ?" he asked. "It means..love in Korean.. " I told him, hiding my face in his chest. "You're so adorable, you know that? And don't worry I'll keep calling you that. " he said, playing with my hair. "Tae, would you like to stay the night?" I heard him say, as I felt his body getting warm. I looked up at him nervously. "I'd like that." I responded shyly.
