Yoranda blinked in surprise when he lined up four more of the shots in front of her and she looked up at him. "You might not sleep with me, but damn,after all these I can't guarantee that I won't sleep with you," she said before taking one of them and downing it. She shivered a bit as it went down, setting down the empty glass and pushing it back towards him. "So let me guess, I'll go to sleep and when I wake up in the morning, Haera will be here and will have somehow told you who I liked before dating Luther?" she teased.
Birger laughed, "A tiny girl like you, try and sleep with a giant like me?" He asked and leaned forward. "That's cute, babe... real cute." He said and poked her nose. He wanted to kiss her, taste that drink right off her lips. Her aura was strong and he wondered why the hell her sister had the same aura. It confused the shit out of him and he wondered if they were a thing since she always ran back to her. "Down all three back to back... I dare you." He smirked.
Yoranda smirked a bit as he poked her nose, gazing up at him. She blinked in surprise when he told her to drink all three of them back to back and she nodded. "I can do that," she replied. "I can't guarantee you'll be safe if I do, though. I may be tiny, but so are velociraptors and they can take down creatures way bigger than them," she said with a smirk. She grabbed the first of the glasses, taking a moment to brace herself before knocking it back.
Birger laughed and watched her take the shot. Some of her drink spilled from the corner of her mouth and he wiped it off with his thumb before sucking on it. "Now I know what to expect." He smirked before slowly pushing the third out of five shots for her. "You are doing so well... why not another?" He asked.
Yoranda blushed a bit when he reached over and wiped the drink from her lips and took it for himself. She set down the glass and took the next one, downing it in one go and then taking the next one and doing the same. She sighed, shuddering a bit as she finished the last one and set down the empty glass. "You're a cruel, cruel man," she said, looking up at him. "What are you getting out of this? You're wasting perfectly good alcohol on not getting laid," she said with a slight smirk. "You're not gonna get me drunk enough to tell you who I like, so if that's the goal you might as well stop while you're ahead."
Birger watched her blush and smirked, "I don't want jack shit from you, but you were in need of a drink or seven and I am a friend who is willing to help, but those were your last so." He smiled. "Plus I don't lay drunk girls... not even when I am drunk." He said and grabbed the glasses to go clean. If I wanted you I would have you, sober." He said and walked back to her. "You think you can sleep now?" He asked softly.
Yoranda smirked a bit when he said that she was in need of a drink or seven. She was almost disappointed when he said that he didn't sleep with drunk girls and she let out a dramatic sigh. "Well, damn," she said. "I guess that means I'll have to wait until morning." She paused slightly when he asked if she thought she could sleep, and then she shrugged. "I don't know. Maybe. It might be worth a try. I can't promise to leave you alone if you stay, though," she said, smirking up at him. "Ugh. Has anyone ever told you that your beard is really sexy?" she asked, reaching across to try to touch his beard.
Birger smirked, "You can do most of whatever you want while we try sleeping." He said and watched her reach over and try and touch his beard. "A few... yeah." He said and leaned over to let her play with it. She was adorable and his need to protect her grew. "Come. It is bed time." He said and walked around and hauled her over his shoulder before walking to his quarters and placing her on the bed before going to his dress of drawers and throwing a shirt at her gently. "Put it on." He said.
Yoranda giggled a bit when he told her that a few people had told him his beard was sexy. "Damn. Thought I'd be the first," she said as she played with his beard. She blinked in surprise when he came around and put her over his shoulder, not fighting it as he carried her upstairs and put her on the bed. She didn't catch the shirt he threw at her but nodded. "Okay," she replied, standing up and calmly taking off her dress, having had much too much to drink to care that he was right there. She tossed the dress aside and pulled the shirt on, finding that it was long enough to be a dress on her. She giggled. "I look so pretty!" she said, doing a little twirl and falling over in the process - falling, luckily, on to the bed.
Birger watched the whole damn scene and smiled. He absolutely loved this girl. She was funny and carefree, gorgeous and proud. She had a tongue and knew how to work it. Her voice was stunning. The only thing was she was a bit young and by bit a good bit. He undressed down to his boxer briefs and adjusted her so she was under the covers before sliding in himself. "You look stunning." He said softly.
Yoranda kept her brown eyes on him while he undressed, smirking a bit as he covered her up in the blanket and then climbed into the bed with her. She reached over and gently poked his abs a few times. "Ugh, who knew you were so muscly?" she asked, smirking a bit. "I'm gonna touch them. Gonna touch all the muscles...all night. And you can't stop me," she giggled.
Birger laughed a deep and hardy laugh when she reached over and poked his abs while saying was was gonna touch them all. "Are you now? Go right ahead, babe. Do ya worse." He said, loving how tiny her hands were on him. "Ugh you have the cutest tiny hands ever." He said and lifted one to his lips and kissed it. "But you should go to bed. I have to go to bed. Haera will bust my damn door down if I am not down there on time. She will throw everything, including you, and I might lose you. I rather not lose you, Yora." He chuckled.
Yoranda giggled when he told her her hands were cute, blushing when he kissed one of them. "All the better to terrorize you with," she told him teasingly, but nodded when he said that they should sleep. "Fine, fine. I'll try to sleep. It's gonna be hard with a big snuggly teddy bear beside me, though," she said, shuffling a bit closer and nestling herself against him slightly. "Don't worry...you're not gonna lose me," she told him softly, closing her eyes to try to fall asleep.
Birger smirked, "I am a damn teddy, thank you for noticing. I was trying super hard." He said and held her closer to him, protectively. He didn't want to let her go. She was so tiny against him and all he wanted to do was protect and love on her. He let his hand travel the curve of her body before resting on her hip. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Before he knew it the light was hitting him. Yora was asleep next to him and he smiled. He could get used to this. Slowly and quietly he got up and dressed before heading downstairs to see Haera waiting for him. "Ohhh a girlie is up there, huh?" She asked and he nodded. "Yora... she drank a bit last night so I made her stay. Hey.... do you know who she liked before Luther?" He asked and Haera laughed. "Yeah... your stupid ass." She said and started to get to setting up.
Birger blinked, "Me? No... why.. oh god... I was the fucking asshole who was too stupid to see a great thing in front... I am the one who made... who made her cry.. I broke her heart, Hae." He said and looked back at the stairs.
"Yeah you did... now you can ask her out when she is over Luther or today, but after you fucking help me." She said and he nodded before going help.

Yoranda slept soundly that night, falling asleep not long after settling down and sleeping heavily right through until morning. When morning came she blinked in the light from the window, groaning loudly and pulling the blankets up over herself. Her head was throbbing with a dull, aching pain and she felt a little dizzy. She was also feeling pretty embarrassed about how she'd acted with Birger last night. He'd seemed to enjoy it, but she wasn't certain and she was regretting all the flirting and the touching and the cuddling. It had been nice...but not appropriate. Not with her boss.
Haera and Birger was finished and she left. He walked up stairs ato see a moving Yora and he freaked. What was he going to say? Sorry I am a blind fucking idiot? Sorry I got your heart broken again. Sorry I am such a fucked up. Sorry, but I find you really adorable please go out with me? He shook his head and inched around the bed to go take a shower. He got to the stairs, "Yora.... will you go out with me?" He asked before running up the stairs and into the shower.
Yoranda heard Birger coming up the stairs and into the bedroom. She let out a small grumble from beneath the blankets, trying to indicate to him that she was awake and he didn't have to tiptoe around her. She suddenly heard his words and then she heard the sound of his footsteps as he ran off. Her eyes went wide and she sat bolt upright, looking in the direction that he had gone. She leapt out of the bed and went after him, smirking a bit as she found the door unlocked. She opened it and stepped inside, putting her hands on her hips. "Birger, get out here," she said, an amused tone in her voice.
Birger heard the door open and mentally cursed as she walked inside. When she told him to come out he shook his head, "I am naked." He said and peeked around the curtain to look at her, water dripping off his beard. "Can I help you? Your shift doesn't start for a lot more hours. You need something to eat. You should go eat, dear." He said and smiled at her. Part of him hoped she didn't hear.
Yoranda smirked a bit when he stuck his head out and refused to come out because he was naked. "I'm not going anywhere until you tell me what exactly you said to me right when you came in," she said to him, folding her arms over her chest and leaning against the doorway somewhat. "It sounded something like Yora will you go out with me. Is that what you said?" she asked. She was playing it off as if she was cool, calm, and collected, but her head was killing her and her heart was racing. Maybe she'd underestimated Haera's wealth of knowledge.
Birger looked at her, "So damn bossy." He said and shook his head before turning the water off and grabbing his towel. He wrapped himself and let it hang on his hips before stepping out and towering over her. "Mmm I believe I did. Haera told me, Yora..." He said softly. "I am... I am greatly sorry for pushing you away. I like you too... a lot... but with your sister being the way she was and Una seemingly having her head up her ass and acting like she was the greatest doctor there was... I didn't want to be involved in that. That was a mess and a half that just... wasn't for me. One you explain your sister horribly, by the way. She isn't and arrogant woman." He sighed and poked her cheek. "I know I am your boss and you are going to say no, but... if you don't mind giving me a chance when you are ready... I would be honored." He said softly.
Yoranda giggled a bit when he called her bossy, waiting patiently while he got himself wrapped in a towel and stepped out. He looked absolutely delicious wrapped in his towel like that. She could just eat him up, but she was getting ahead of herself. She gazed up at him as he explained himself, her smirk fading into a tender, girlish smile. She giggled a bit when he poked her cheek and she gazed up at him. "I'd really like that," she told him in a soft voice. "I'll give you a chance...but I just need you to promise me that you're not going to dump my ass because you realize you're in love with my sister. I've had enough of that for one lifetime."
Birger smiled when she said she would like to give him a chance. "Thank you." He said before blinking, "Do I look like fucking Luther? Don't insult me babe. And to think I was going to let you join me for a shower." He said and shook his head before going back in and placing the towel back on the rack. "You just gotta wait for the good a lot longer." He smiled, "But I won't... I would never leave you like that." He said softly. "You were too good for him anyway." He said.
Yoranda smiled a bit when he commented that he was going to let her join him for a shower before she said that. "You really think you can stop me from just getting in there with you?" she asked with a smirk, though she was debating whether or not to actually do it. She was quiet for a moment when he said he'd never leave her like that and that she was too good for Luther. "If you think I'm too good for Luther then why were you so encouraging about me going out with him?" she asked. "You seemed to think he was wonderful back then."
Birger blinked, "I mean.. I could try, shit woman." He huffed but was smiling. There was a quiet period and he wondered if she was actually waiting for him to finish. Then she asked her question and it hit him hard. How could he answer that. He didn't think Luther would do that to her and he didn't want her getting any closer to him, he wanted to smash whatever she was doing down and give it to Luther. "I didn't know he was going to do this to you. I had... if I had known... I would have never pushed you away. I would have gladly accepted whatever was happening between us. I am... truly sorry." He said.
Yoranda went quiet after she heard his words. She waited a moment, hearing only the sound of the running water, and then she carefully took off his long shirt and her underwear, taking care to be quiet as she did so. She headed over to the shower and drew back the curtain, gazing up at him as she stepped inside. "Apology accepted," she told him with a slight smirk. The hot water felt good and the steam was actually quite nice for her headache, so she tilted her head back under the water to let it run through her hair, sighing a bit.
