Work Text:
“Let’s move it people!” Beidou hollered as soon as the Crux had finished docking in Liyue Harbor. Contrary to popular belief, Beidou could be a very patient woman, but when she had a date planned, she did not have time to waste.
“Beidou, everyone here knows about your date there’s no reason to yell.” Kazuha teased as he helped offload the many boxes they had with them.
“Oh please, ‘everyone’ is an exaggeration.” She scoffed, but an exasperated look from Kazuha and raised eyebrows from her other crew members were enough for her to mutter and apology and drop the subject.
With everyone being excited about spending the next few days in Liyue as a break to visit their friends and family, the work went by quickly. Beidou walked around one more time to ensure that everything had been unloaded and that the ship was properly tied down and ready for the next few days. Satisfied, she bid farewell to the dock officer and her crew, before practically running to the Jade Chamber transportation platform.
“Ah Miss Beidou, you made it early.” The transporter stated as she approached.
“Is that alright? It won’t affect anyone’s schedule, right?” Beidou questioned panting. She had known she was bit early, and even though she really wanted to see Ningguang, she didn’t want to mess up her schedule due to that.
“Oh no, Lady Ningguang had planned for this. She should be finishing up now as well. Are you ready to depart?”
“Please.”
--------------------
--------------------
Ningguang had just started on her last stack of paperwork when one of her assistants informed her that the Crux had entered the waters of the Harbor. She glanced at the clock that hung on her way, to no one’s surprise, Beidou was early. Beidou had a bad habit of running late to almost anything, but if Ningguang told her that she was actually taking the extremely rare weekend off, Beidou would magically arrive early and impatiently stare her down until she finished.
She knew the patterns of the captain well though and had been working overtime to ensure that she could finish everything by Friday afternoon to allow for the maximum time to spend with her captain. It was difficult, but she was determined to make it happen. After all, she was just as excited to see Beidou, even though she was much better at hiding that fact.
“NINGGUANG! I have come to rescue you!” Beidou shouted through the Jade Palace right after she slammed the doors open. In an instant an assistant scolded her for being so loud as the doors were carefully shut. To Beidou’s credit, she did at least appear a little sheepish as she apologized before making sure her steps were soft as she went directly for Ningguang’s office.
Initially, she violently pushed the doors of Ningguang’s office open, but after feeling the glares of the assistant on her back, she quickly grabbed them before they could make contact with the walls. Ningguang didn’t even bother looking at as she quickly finished up the last of her work. She knew exactly what was coming.
“Ningguang!” Beidou shouted as she slammed her hands down on the desk. Thankfully the Tianquan had already closed all of the inkwells and other lose items on her desk, so nothing spilled from the force of the impact. “Stop working! It’s vacation time!”
“Hello Beidou.” She greeted calmly. “Give me one moment to put this away and then we can go.”
“Hurry up, I walked circles outside just so I could get here perfectly on time.” Beidou groaned. Well, that would explain the dramatic entrance. Ningguang sighed at her antics, but quickly stored some documents and passed the rest on to her assistants. She gave her office a quick once over to ensure that everything was in order before she reached her hand out to Beidou.
“Let’s go eat, shall we?” Beidou took her hand in an instant and gently pulled her along as they descended from the Jade Chamber.
--------------------
--------------------
Even though Ningguang was always served stellar meals, it had still been a while since she had the opportunity to actually go to a restaurant and eat out. Beidou also seemed very excited to eat something that could practically be made while she was out in the middle of the sea.
It was true that sometimes the two of them grated on each other’s nerves, and their conversation was filled with lively banter and teasing, but it was also filled with more love than could ever be put into words.
Beidou rolled her eyes as she finished her drink while she listened to Ningguang and the owner of the restaurant argue. The owner wanted to give them their meal for free based off how much they do for Liyue, but Ningguang was lecturing him on how this would affect his business financial profile, and that she should pay because she could easily afford it. She insisted that he save his generosity for someone who was in a less secure financial position. It took everything in Beidou to not burst out laughing at the two of them and offered that they pay half price for the meal. Neither one of them seemed very happy with the solution, but it was a solution nonetheless, so they both begrudgingly agreed.
“Let’s go home, Beidou.” Ningguang said now that everything was handled. Beidou happily agreed and took her hand once again to pull her along again.
It didn’t take long to make it back to the Jade Chamber, and after bringing them up, the transporter immediately bid them a good night and disappeared. Beidou looked around and noticed that assistants didn’t start to swarm Ningguang, there was no ideal background chatter, or anything for that matter. A thought crept into Beidou’s mind.
“Oh? Are you up to something?” She asked as she checked around corners to ensure there wasn’t anyone lingering around.
“We get such little time together; I didn’t want us disturbed.” Ningguang informed her as if it was a small thing to clear the entire floating chamber of everyone just for the two of them.
Beidou smiled as she waltzed back to Ningguang, she wrapped her arms around her delicate waist and pulled them close together. She hovered just close enough to taunt Ningguang but waited for her to make the first move.
“Who ever said something like that was going to come from this, hm?” She hummed as ran a hand up Beidou’s body and secured her hand on the brunette’s jaw. Beidou looked her up and down as if to say that no one had told her that something like this wouldn’t happen.
“Then tell me, what would you like to have come from this?” Beidou purred as she rested her head in the hand that still firmly held her jaw. “If you need help deciding, I have some ideas for the famed Tianquan.”
“Oh? Tell me what’s on your mind.” Beidou didn’t miss as it came out as an order.
“Well, as Tianquan you work so hard to make sure that everything is taken care of. How about I take care of you? I know exactly what you would like.”
Ningguang eyed Beidou as she watched the fire behind her eyes grow brighter with the thought of a challenge. She pretended to mull it over as she could practically feel Beidou buzzing in her hand with the effort of trying to remain still. Eventually Ningguang sighed, and Beidou didn’t need any other signs or instructions to make her take action. She pulled Ningguang’s hand off her chin and placed it over her shoulder as she fully wrapped her hands around Ningguang’s waist and slowly led them towards her chambers.
“Lay down.” Beidou gently pleaded once they entered. Ningguang accepted as she waltzed over to lounge on her large bed while Beidou practically ripped her own boots off. She hesitated at the door for just a moment before locking it just in case, she was not going to risk being interrupted despite the whole place being cleared.
“No, no, no, don’t.” Beidou called as she saw Ningguang reach to undo her heels. “Allow me.” She said in response to the questioning look she got from the blonde.
Beidou sauntered her way over to the bed Ningguang was lounging on and kneeled on the edge as she reached for her heels. She easily slid them off her feet and started to massage her ankles and she brought her lips to kiss just under her knee. Ningguang gave a content sigh as she felt the pressure of Beidou’s hands start to crawl up her leg. Beidou eased the pressure slightly once she reached her knee, but she spent more time as she worked the joint and eased any pain in the muscle. Once she felt the tightness start to go away, she switched to give the same treatment to Ningguang’s other leg.
Beidou slowly worked her way up until she made it to Ningguang knee again. She planted her hands on the inside of both of her knees, before forcing them apart to slot herself in between them. Ningguang gasped at the unexpected roughness. She tried to roll her hips to encourage Beidou, but the brunette refused to do any more than pulling her legs around her waist.
She smirked as she reached around Ningguang to let her breath ghost at her neck as she reached behind her to undo the zipper of her dress. Ningguang tilted her head to give her better access as she fisted her left hand into Beidou’s hair to hold her in place. It was a little difficult to remove Ningguang’s dress without moving off her neck, but Beidou was nothing if not determined. She managed to wiggle her out of it and ripped her own gloves off right after. Ningguang helped out by unclasping her clock and pulled out her hair pin so she could have a better grip on her hair.
The only sounds in the room were the clanking of the hairpin disappearing somewhere in the corner of the room and Ningguang’s soft pants as Beidou remained latched on her neck. Beidou let her hands wander the expanse of the beautiful skin underneath her. She softly rubbed at the small indents in the pale skin from where the seams slightly dug in.
“Please, Ningguang please.” Beidou pleaded against the neck that she was still held against.
“Please what? Use your words.” Ningguang instructed.
“Please let me have my way. Let me please you.” Beidou begged. Her eyes turned pleading when Ningguang released her enough to allow her to look into her eyes.
“Hm, I’m not so sure.” Ningguang’s voice was smoother than silk as she wrapped her hand sharply around Beidou’s neck. “Do you deserve that? You did cause quite a commotion when you arrived.”
Beidou tried to respond, but no words could make it past Ningguang’s hand as it was all Beidou could do to force air into her lungs to prevent herself from passing out. Ningguang’s hand remained firm even as Beidou started to squirm slightly. You could never say Beidou went down without a fight as she changed tactics.
Beidou gripped Ningguang’s legs still wrapped around her and pulled her even closer, grinding against her as she palmed at her chest with one hand. A whine escaped past her hand and Ningguang appeared to think.
“This is how you convince me to let you have your way? Grinding against me like a bitch in heat?” Ningguang’s words sounded scolding, but the hitch in her breath gave her away. Beidou continued rolling her hips and she pinched at her nipple. It was enough for Ningguang’s grip to faulter for a moment, and it was all Beidou needed to take advantage of the situation. She expertly wiggled fully out of her grip and immediately mouthed at the gap between Ningguang’s breasts.
Ningguang’s breathy gasps increased in pitch as Beidou slowly descended down her body. She used her biceps to hold down Ningguang’s legs as she laid down flat on the bed, effectively trapping the blonde underneath her. Beidou lightly traced down Ningguang’s sides, forcing a shiver out of her as she reached for her hair again. Her hands tangled in the brown locks, but this time she didn’t force it to go anywhere. She let Beidou take control as that slow descent continued.
It wasn’t until Beidou’s mouth was finally firmly between Ningguang’s legs that she relaxed for a moment. Only for a moment though as she quickly realized her mistake. As she descended, Beidou had never left her mouth in the same place for too long. It was always just light grazing, and kisses scattered about, but now, Beidou had secured her arms around Ningguang’s hips and had yet to remove her mouth since she began. Ningguang instantly tensed up again as she was forced to endure the onslaught of Beidou’s tongue against her most sensitive parts.
It didn’t matter how many times Ningguang tugged at her hair, or how many noises were pulled from her, Beidou refused to budge. Even as saliva and other liquids started to drip down the pirate captain’s chin, she held firm. She slowed down for a moment to allow Ningguang a break for a fraction of a second to come down from her high, before she started up again. Ningguang might not ever admit it out loud, but perhaps letting Beidou have her way with her wasn’t such a bad idea. It was her last coherent thought before her voice picked up once again.
