It was normal for Gladio to come to my house and complain about his father. Since having been introduced to him, by said man, Gladio had found comfort in coming to talk to me.

"Can you believe him! He yelled at me because of something Iris did! I wasn't even home!" He yelled angrily.

"He doesn't like to raise his voice with your sister... he knows she cries when he does."

"What about me though?"

"He has to take his anger out on someone." I said calmly.

"You know what, fuck my father!" Gladio snapped.

"I'm trying." I said not looking up from my books.

"Really?"

"Done told you that I like him, so don't be surprised I'm trying to sleep with him." I said as I looked up at him.

"Yea but he's my dad."

"And?"

"And you're like my mother."

"And?"

"And that's nasty."

"It's nasty for two parents to screw each other? God I pray for your wife."

"Could be husband." He mumbled under his breath.

"I feel bad for him too." I said calmly.

I stood up and stretched.

"Well I have to go. I have a meeting with your father." I said softly.

He nodded his head and I ruffled his hair up.

"I'll see you later." He said calmly.

I nodded my head and left the house.

"Morning, Clarus."

"(Y/n)." He said calmly.

"Sorry I'm late I was with Gladio." I said as I set down.

"I don't need to know about you and my son." He said with a frown.

"Me and your son? Whatever do you mean?" I asked with a frown.

"You and my son's relationship is highly inappropriate."

"Inappropriate? What is so wrong with it?"

"Well you're my age and he is my son. You and he shouldn't be-"

"You think me and Gladio.... are.. sleeping together?" I asked shocked.

"Well yes and I must say it is wr-"

"One I am actually in my late thirties. Two I see Gladio as my son and Three... I like you, you dumb ass!" I snapped.

"You aren't sleeping with Gladio?"

"No, and I wouldn't ever think about it either. He is like a son to me." I said as I crossed my arms over my chest.

"You like me?"

"Yes.. and just so you know the reason he comes to my house all the time is so he can complain about you." I said calmly.

"I fucked up."

"Yea."

"No you see I've been complaining to Regis and Cor about you... and they already hate you from what I said." He said calmly.

"Clarus! Cor is my brother!" I snapped.

"I'm sorry."

I rubbed my forehead and let out a sigh.

"I'm going to kill you."

"I'm really really sorry.... so... do you still like me or-"

"Right now I'm wanting to strangle you." I said sternly.

"I can get into that sort of thing."

I rubbed my face and shook my head. I grabbed a hold of his jacket and dragged him behind me.

"Where are we going?"

"My house."

"Why?"

"You already know."

I turned to look at him and sent him a wink. In an instant I was thrown over his shoulder and he took off running towards my house. We passed by Gladio and his friends.

"I didn't mean it literally!" He yelled as we passed him.
