As they lay there, entwined under the cascading warm water, Winry felt a wave of satisfaction wash over her. Orion was next to her, his breaths syncing with hers. He was there, with her, sharing this intimate moment. He had shown her a side of him she had never seen before, a side she wanted to explore more.

As they pulled apart, Orion looked at her with eyes full of affection and something deeper... a promise, a pledge of his commitment to her. His gaze was intense, his emotions laid bare before her. It was a sight she would remember forever, a memory she would cherish.

"Orion," she whispered, her voice shaky but filled with emotion. She reached out to touch his face, her fingers tracing the contours of his jaw, his cheek, his lips. "Thank you."

He caught her hand, pressing a soft kiss to her palm. "No, Winry. Thank you." His voice was soft, filled with emotion. She could see it in his eyes, the depth of his feelings for her. It made her heart swell with love.

At the door of Winry's house, Winry's eyes were glowing, their shine reflecting off Orion's equally radiant gaze. Leaning in, she pressed her lips against his one last time, her fingers gently brushing against his stubbled cheek. "Are you going to Tatsumaki now?" She asked, pulling back just enough to meet his gaze. Her voice was soft, barely above a whisper, but it carried an undercurrent of affection that warmed his heart.

Orion nodded, his fingers lightly tracing circles on her hand that was still resting on his cheek. "Yeah, it's her turn now," he admitted, his voice a murmur in the quiet afternoon air. He flashed her a warm smile, one that made his eyes crinkle at the corners.

Winry responded with a soft nod, her fingers threading into the back of his hair as she pulled him into a gentle hug. The action was so natural, so filled with love that it made Orion's heart flutter. After a moment, she released him, her fingers lingering on his neck before she pulled away completely.

Orion watched her retreat back into the house, his eyes lingering on her disappearing figure for a moment longer. Then, he hopped onto his scooter, the hum of the engine breaking the afternoon silence. A quick wave at Winry and he was off, riding towards Tatsumaki's house.

Orion arrived at Tatsumaki's house with a grin tugging at his lips, his heart filled with a sense of fulfillment and anticipation. The petite, green-haired girl was known to be quite the tsundere, her stubborn nature and reluctant affections making their interactions all the more interesting.

As he parked his scooter and walked to the door, he reminded himself of his philosophy. Never shy away, always double back. It was a mantra that had always served him well, especially with Tatsumaki.

He knocked lightly on the door, and after a few moments, Tatsumaki herself opened it. "You're late," she grumbled, her eyes narrowing at him. But Orion could see the anticipation in her gaze, the slight quiver of her lips. He chuckled lightly, leaning against the door frame and looking down at her.

"Sorry, got caught up with something," he said, his voice soft but filled with hidden laughter. Her cheeks tinged a light pink, and she quickly turned away, pretending to be disinterested. Orion could almost hear her heart pounding in her chest.

Seeing her act so defiant, Orion stepped into the house, shutting the door behind him. "So, what's the plan for today, Tatsu?" he asked, his tone casual as he moved closer to her. She blushed harder, her gaze fixed on the floor. "I...I don't know. Maybe we can watch a movie or something."

Orion caught the hint of hesitation in her voice. She was a tough nut to crack, but that didn't mean she wasn't willing. She just needed a little push. So he decided to give her just that.

"Or we could do something else," he suggested, stepping closer until there was barely any space left between them. Tatsumaki was flustered now, her cheeks a brilliant red. "Wh-what are you suggesting?" she stammered, trying to step away, but Orion held her firm.

"Something romantic," he proposed, his voice a murmur. Tatsumaki's eyes widened, and she froze. For a moment, there was silence, the only sound being their shallow breaths.

"Romantic?" she squeaked, her face turning even redder. "I-I don't do romantic!"

Orion chuckled, tracing his fingers down her arm. "There's always a first time, Tatsu." He was so close now that she could feel his breath against her skin. "Besides, I think you would enjoy it."

At that, Tatsumaki finally looked up at him, her eyes wide and confused. But there was a hint of curiosity there, a slight glimmer of interest. Seeing that, Orion knew he was on the right track.

"Alright," he murmured, moving his hand up to her chin, lifting it gently. "But only if you're okay with it."

For a moment, Tatsumaki looked at him, her gaze moving from his eyes to his lips and back again. And then, slowly, she nodded, her face a burning red.

Satisfied, Orion leaned in, pressing his lips against hers in a gentle kiss. She stiffened at first, but then, slowly, she melted into him, her arms wrapping around his neck.

Tatsumaki pulled back, a slight smile tugging at her lips as she continued to play her part, acting like she was still annoyed. But there was a hint of warmth in her eyes, a soft blush on her cheeks that told Orion everything he needed to know.

"Really, you could at least try to be less obvious," she muttered, her gaze dropping to the floor as she took a step back. There was a flustered look on her face, a shy grin that she tried to hide by turning her head to the side.

"Is that so?" Orion teased, leaning in closer, his voice dropping to a whisper. His gaze was fixed on her, watching every flicker of emotion that crossed her face. His eyes twinkled with amusement as he added, "Then what should we do now, Tatsu?"

She paused, glancing at him from the corner of her eye. "I...I don't know," she admitted, her voice barely audible. Orion found her hesitation endearing. He knew she wasn't used to this, to showing affection, to being vulnerable. But he also knew she was trying, and that meant more to him than anything else.

Seeing her struggle, he decided to take the lead. He reached out, gently grabbing her hand and pulling her closer. "How about we go somewhere nice?" he suggested, his voice a soft murmur. "We can have a lunch together."

Tatsumaki squirmed out of Orion's hold, her face a rosy pink as she feigned irritation. "Looking at the clock, I should be the third girl today, right?" she spat, rolling her eyes at him. "Go and take one of them to lunch." Her voice was an annoyed whine, but Orion could see right through her.

"Tatsu," Orion began, the corner of his lips pulling into a teasing grin. He advanced on her, his steps slow and deliberate. "Are you... jealous?" The words slipped from his mouth in a soft murmur, a playful glint in his eyes. She sputtered, her green eyes wide as she tried to evade his gaze.

But Orion was quick. He gently but firmly caught her, his hand wrapping around her wrist and pulling her back towards him. Her back met the wall, his body crowding hers as he leaned in, his head ducking down to nuzzle into the crook of her neck. He inhaled deeply, the unique scent of her making his heart flutter.

In response, Tatsumaki stammered, struggling to find words as she squirmed under his gaze. "I'm not... I don't get jealous!" she protested, trying and failing to sound convincing.

But the flush on her cheeks, the way her heart pounded in her chest, told a different story. Orion chuckled against her skin, his breath tickling her neck.

"You are so cute when you're jealous," he mumbled, his voice barely above a whisper. The words hung heavy in the air between them, the tension almost palpable. He could feel Tatsumaki's heart race against his chest, her breath hitching at his confession.

She wriggled free from his embrace, turning to hide her flushed face. But Orion wasn't done yet. He liked to see her flustered, liked the blush that painted her cheeks and the spark of defiance in her eyes.
