PREVIOUS || NEXT
The next day after all has happened, Zhongli noticed how you seem to be⌠happier.Â
You really werenât lying when you told him last night that you and Diluc have been getting along pretty well, because you surely never seem to take your eyes off of your phone as you type out responses to your newly found friend the whole time in the hotel room.Â
By the time you take your eyes off your phone is when you came out of the hotel room to do your activities for the day, such as eating breakfast, taking a stroll around the garden once more, visiting the convenience store once again, hanging out with a friend of yours by Good Hunter, and so on.Â
The thing is, all of these had one thing in common.Â
Besides a certain experience, you kept seeing a certain red-haired man to the point where itâs no longer a coincidence. Do you two just really have the same schedule or something?Â
As you lined up for the buffet with your plate in hand, you were tempted to grab your phone and check if you received any message from a certain man, still smiling from enjoying your last conversation with him on the phone.Â
It wasnât until you hear someone clearing his throat behind you when you turn around from recognizing it, causing your eyes to brighten at the sight of the familiar man youâve been talking to for the past hour earlier.Â
âDiluc!â You greeted happily.Â
â( Name ).â He greeted, also pleasantly surprised.
âI thought you were out for work already! Didnât you mention you often go to Angelâs Share early?â You ask curiously.Â
He nodded in response. âI do. Just not today it seems, I have something important to do today.âÂ
The two of you started picking your foods by the time the food is now displayed in front of you after taking a step forward, choosing what you want to eat for breakfast all the while chatting with Diluc â a major difference a few days ago when you and the man were suffering from the awkward silence between you two.Â
Turns out, Diluc supposedly had a plus one, but the person wasnât able to make it due to not having time, hence how he finds himself being alone. Today, however, is the day when the plus one visits the hotel just to greet the wedding couple and wish them well, who will be leaving tomorrow for their honeymoon.Â
Youâre curious to know who his plus one is, but you wouldnât be surprised if itâs someone as important and highly regarded as him.Â
Once you two finished picking your meal at the same time, you started heading towards where Zhongli is, whoâs waiting for you to come at last. You paid no mind how Diluc is following you, perhaps heâs heading towards his table as well thatâs in the same direction as yours.Â
âYou could sit with me and Zhongli if you want. You two seem to know each other back then before we visited your establishment.â You offered with a smile, carefully holding your plate in fear of dropping it.Â
He shakes his head. âOh Iâll be alright. Mr. Zhongli has visited Mondstadt back then a few times and would come by for a nice tea and brunch. Though, he tends to have his chatty friend with him whenever he does.âÂ
You canât help but grin when he mentioned the chatty friend. âYou mean Venti?âÂ
Diluc nodded. âYes. He usually comes around to drink a lot of alcohol. Itâs a miracle he didnât get any sickness from drinking so much.âÂ
You visibly imagine Venti drinking lots of alcohol, causing you to laugh at the thought. âWell Iâm not surprised to hear that. He seems the kind to do that.âÂ
Before you knew it, youâre finally at your table, causing you to stop your tracks instantly and bid Diluc goodbye before sitting on your seat. If it werenât for you noticing Zhongli waving at you as well as Diluc slowing down his walk, you wouldâve not noticed the fact that you almost walked past your table thanks to you being distracted with your conversation.
âLetâs talk again next time. Enjoy your meal, Diluc.â You said as you watched Diluc giving you an acknowledged nod before walking away to where his table is.Â
By the time Diluc is long far away, Zhongli decides to speak up after taking a sip of his tea. âYou know, I was starting to think you were too busy being indecisive on your food, but I suppose I was wrong.â He said with amusement.Â
You chuckled, picking up your eating utensils. âConsider yourself lucky that I wasnât in the mood to eat seafood, lest I decide to tease you with it.âÂ
You feel satisfied seeing the cringe look on his face, grinning to yourself as you take a bite of your food.Â
â
After eating breakfast, you and Zhongli went back to your hotel room and got ready for your first activity. While your friend is getting ready to go somewhere, you decided to go visit the convenience store to buy some snacks.Â
You wanted to try something new this time, so you decided to choose snacks that are from Mondstadt instead of Liyue or Inazuma. Of course, you wouldnât forget the ones Zhongli wanted, particularly another certain drink.Â
âItâs a non-alcoholic drink called Fruits of the Festival.â He says as he zips his bag that contains the things he needed. âVenti recommended that we drink some now that there are a lot of them in stock for the celebration of the upcoming Weinlesefest festival.âÂ
With that in mind, perhaps you shouldâve taken into consideration that the drink would possibly be out of stock soon , because by the time you encounter the aisle that supposedly contains the Fruits of the Festival, there was only one bottle left.
Just as youâre about to take the bottle, you didnât notice how someone else was reaching out to it as well, causing your hand to touch his.Â
Surprised, you look at the person whoâs getting the same item as you, only to be even more surprised when you realize who it is.Â
â...Diluc?âÂ
â( Name )?âÂ
You canât help but let out a laugh, not believing that you saw your friend again coincidentally. âOh wow, I didnât expect to see you here! Are you trying to get this one?â You asked, gesturing to the drink youâre still touching.Â
He hums in agreement. âDonât worry, I could always get the other one.â He said, about to let go until you immediately let go of it.Â
âAh no, no, no! Itâs better if you take this one since itâs the last one. Consider it a payment for letting me have the grape juice last time.â You said with a laugh, gesturing to the man to take the drink.
He shakes his head, letting go of the drink. âItâs fine, you can take it. I wouldnât want you to miss out tasting something such as the Fruits of the Festival.â
You refuse to get the drink. âOh come on, itâs better if youâre the one whoâll get this.âÂ
âNo, no. Itâs fine.âÂ
âJust get it, Diluc.âÂ
âI prefer you getting it.â
âNo youââ
Suddenly, someone else takes the drink in front of the two of you, causing you to flinch in surprise.Â
âBrother Albedo! Is this blue drink the one youâre talking about?â A little girl with a red dress says before running towards where her brother is with the drink in hand, leaving you and Diluc stunned.Â
â...â
â...â
You canât help but laugh. âOh man, this reminds me of what happened back then.â You said, remembering the way you and Diluc fell into the same situation and kept insisting on whoâs taking the drink.
His lips twitch upward. âLikewise. We really have come a long way after that.âÂ
You nodded in agreement with a smile. âWe have. Though itâs really a shame none of us got the drink. Iâm sure theyâll restock soon.âÂ
âWe can visit tomorrow if youâd like.â Diluc offers. âIâm sure my plus one will be asking to go visit the store to buy some together, you can join us.âÂ
You shake your head. âAh, no need! I wouldnât want to bother you catching up with whoever your plus one is. Iâm sure Iâll eventually be able to try it when I hang out with my friend later.âÂ
He nods in understanding. âVery well then. I hope youâll enjoy the drink. If you somehow werenât able to drink it, you could always visit Angelâs Share. Itâll be available today or tomorrow.âÂ
Your eyes brighten, remembering the delightful establishment. Now that you think about it, you do miss their drinks there â so it wouldnât exactly hurt to go there before you and Zhongli leave to the airport. âAlright, Iâll keep that in mind. Thanks again, Diluc.âÂ
âSee you next time, ( Name ).âÂ
Then you two parted ways, unaware that next time is very much later.Â
â
After coming back to the hotel from the convenience store, you were itching to go visit the garden after passing by the entrance. Perhaps it wouldnât hurt to wait there for your friend instead of here when itâs time for you two to hang out.
Which is what led you to immediately get ready for your hangout once you finished unpacking the things you bought from the store.
âHow do I look?â You ask Zhongli as you come out from the bathroom, now fully dressed for your brunch. âDo I look alright?âÂ
You watched as your friend looked away from his book, looking at your outfit carefully before nodding in confirmation with a smile. âYes, you look great.âÂ
You sigh in relief, grabbing your bag from your bed to start packing up your things. âThatâs good. What will you be doing while Iâm gone?âÂ
Zhongli shrugs in response. âI donât have any plans for today, but a walk around the garden would be nice later.âÂ
âAlright. Iâll be back in a while.â You said, checking your phone for any messages (from a certain man) before putting it inside your bag.Â
âHave fun, ( Name ). Donât forget to tell Diluc I said hi.â He said with a chuckle, remembering what you told him about the wine tycoon today.Â
Your mouth opens agape. âWowâ Alright, whatever. Have fun too, Zhongli.âÂ
As you zip your bag closed after getting all the things you need, you immediately head towards the door. Maybe I should try taking pictures of some of the scenery, You thought to yourself.Â
Fortunately the trip to the garden didnât take long, and by the time you entered the hotelâs beautiful garden, you delightfully inhaled the fresh air. Thank Celestia itâs a good day today, you thought, looking around your surroundings.Â
As you walk around the area trying to find a place to sit on, you bring out your phone to take a few pictures. You were so fascinated with how each flower looked amazing in the pictures you took â with the lightning and atmosphere bringing ethereal energy to your pictures.
While admiring the pictures you took, you didnât notice a person walking towards the same direction as you, causing you to accidentally bump into them.Â
âAh, so sorry!â You said with a yelp, maintaining your balance. âI didnât mean to bump into youââ Your eyes widens when you realize who you bump into.Â
âThe apologies are all mine, I shouldâve watched where I was goinââ The red-haired manâs words slowly trail off when he hears your voice, now realizing whoâs in front of him.
â..Diluc?âÂ
â( Name )?âÂ
You let out a laugh once more. âOh wow, I canât believe this! Iâm starting to think this isnât a coincidence now â since when have you started visiting the garden?âÂ
âJust now. I wanted to see what it looks like during the daytime. What brings you here as well?âÂ
âAh, I wanted to take a stroll around the garden while waiting for my friend to come and pick me up so we can go have brunch. This place is really beautiful, isnât it?â You replied, keeping your phone aside.Â
He hums in agreement. âIt is.âÂ
You then thought of something. âWanna walk around the place together while Iâm waiting for my friend?â You asked.Â
âI donât mind.â He said with a nod.Â
And so, you two continued where you left off from last night in the garden, talking about Weinlesefest as you wait for your friend to come.Â
Throughout the stroll, Diluc explained to you all the things you needed to know about the upcoming festival. Apparently, the Weinlesefest festival is more about making new wine as they invite their Archon to drink with everyone. So it makes sense that someone like Diluc, whose entire business and establishment is famous for the amazing wine, is currently thinking of something that could make good wine.
He also explained about what you could do if you participate in the festival, particularly visit Springvale and explore around the place since itâs where the festival will be held. Ah, just hearing all the things you could do and eat made you want to consider extending your stay, but alas, you think one week in one of your favorite regions is enough for you. Besides, even if you decide to extend your stay, only Celestia knows what would happen to you once youâre back to work.Â
While you converse with your friend, you couldnât help but notice the way he looks as though thereâs something in his mind. You didnât find the guts to ask him though, thinking youâre meddling into his business if you do so. Still, youâre a bit concerned that something bad happened and you want to at least help â itâs the least you can do for everything he did for you.Â
Before you could bring up and ask whatâs on his mind, you hear someone calling out your name.Â
â ( Name )! Over here!â Your eyes light up when you hear the familiar voice of your friend, causing you and Diluc to turn around and look at the person whoâs calling you.Â
âThoma, there you are!â You greeted, walking towards the blonde-haired man whoâs also walking towards you. âAnd here I thought you werenât gonna show up any time soon, what took you so long?âÂ
Thoma spreads his arms wide as you give him a hug. âAw man, Iâm sorry for being late! I was busy helping Ayato out with preparing for his next trip, I didnât notice that I was about to be late.â He explains. The two of you quickly separate each other from your hug.
He looks at where Diluc is, causing him to stand up straight and offer the tycoon his hand. âHello! You must be the infamous Diluc Ragnvindr. A pleasure to meet you!â He says with a smile.Â
Diluc didnât hesitate to shake Thomaâs hand, giving him an acknowledged nod. âLikewise. I would like to congratulate you for your efforts in this wedding, itâs truly amazing.âÂ
The blonde-haired man lets out a bashful laugh. âOh youâre too kind, Mr. Ragnvindr! I hope I wasnât bothering you two, did I?âÂ
You hesitantly look at Diluc, who remains the same expression as always, before looking back at your friend with a smile. âAh not really. We were just talking about the Weinlesefest festival until we heard you.âÂ
âThatâs good to hear. Iâm a bit disappointed that I won't be able to experience the festival though.â Thoma lets out a sigh. âOh well, thereâs nothing we can do about it. Mind if I take ( Name ) away, Mr. Ragnvindr?âÂ
Diluc nodded in response. âOf course since thatâs what theyâre here for. Iâll see you next time once again, ( Name ).âÂ
You gave the red-haired man a grateful smile. âSee you next time, Diluc. It was fun talking to you!âÂ
â
The purpose of your brunch with Thoma is simple. Catch up with one another, talk about the things youâve missed in Inazuma while you talk about the things he missed in your trip.Â
So why, why do you feel so bothered?Â
Despite being able to listen to your dear friend and keep up with your conversation, your mind lingers on Diluc. Youâre still worried about how he seems to be out of it back in the garden â is it perhaps because of how he needs to think of a new wine?Â
âYou know, Iâm glad you and Ayato had spoken to one another about what happened back then.â Thoma confesses, causing you to be taken back by surprise. âI hope you wonât be offended with what I have to say but.. You look happier than before.âÂ
You raise your eyebrows from his words. Happier?Â
âI⌠I didnât notice that.â You replied, letting out a small laugh. âAm I really that happy because of how me and Ayato have resolved?âÂ
Thoma lets out a small laugh as well. âWell, thatâs just my guess. Did something else happen that made you happier than that?â He asks.Â
You took a second to think about it. Itâs true that ever since you and Ayato have made up, everything's been going a bit well for you, but then again, itâs sort of weird how youâre a lot happier about it than normal.Â
Is it⌠really just because of that?Â
Seeing how you hesitated, Thomaâs eyes slightly widened in surprise. âWait, did something actually happen?âÂ
You look away from Thoma, a bit flustered. âI-I really donât know either!âÂ
âReally?â
âYeah!âÂ
âThen⌠Itâs not about someone, is it?âÂ
You begin to scratch the back of your head. âWell⌠I did become friends with DilucâŚ? Thatâs the only thing that happened besides me and Ayato talking each other out about what happened.â You said, looking at your friend while you fiddled with your fingers. âHeâs fun to talk to, Iâll admit. I had a lot of fun for the past few days thanks to him.âÂ
The blonde haired man nods in agreement. âI can tell. Every time I look at you during the bachelor and reception, you look like youâre having fun talking to him,â He then lets out a laugh. âIt honestly reminded me of back then when you and Ayato were still pining for each other.âÂ
You look at him in confusion, still smiling. âHuh? What do you mean?âÂ
âWell for starters, itâs the way youâre looking and talking to him. You always pay attention to him and everything he says that you donât focus on eating your food or your surroundings much â I was able to see you while I was hosting the bachelor party.â He explains. â...Of course, Iâm sure you donât see Mr. Ragnvindr that way though, right?âÂ
You slowly glance down at your food, processing his words carefully.Â
âŚHuh.Â
You didnât notice how Thomaâs face slightly fell from how you didnât answer his question. â...You donât see him that way, right?â He repeats.Â
You want to answer yes, but something is holding you back. You donât understand, you donât really see Diluc that way right? You two are just friends â and yes, there were some moments between you two whereas your new friend made you feel⌠things â but thatâs normal, right?
This feeling⌠Isnât surely the same as what you felt towards Ayato back then, is it?
Then again⌠When was the last time you had fallen in love?Â
You wipe your now sweaty palms on your lap, starting to feel a bit conflicted from your thoughts and feelings. Even if you are in love with him, how could you even deal with it? How can you even face him knowing your feelings? What if you end up being heartbroken?Â
But if you arenât in love with him, why does that make you feel.. Unsatisfied?Â
You canât help but think about him, and you realize youâve always been thinking about him for the past few days. He makes you happy obviously, thereâs never a dull moment with him besides when you two first interacted with one another, and heâs understanding and gentle. The gentle look he gives you as he respectfully treats you well makes you feel⌠something.
He also treats you equally and always manage to get along with you despite your differences to one another. Not to mention how you always smile whenever you think of him, something that Zhongli had pointed out one time â and how you couldnât help but always get excited at the thought of whatâs to come for you and Diluc the next dayâ
Oh.
Oh.
Meanwhile, Thoma tries to think of a way to change topics. âItâs alright if youâre unsure, ( Name ).â
âNo, no, itâs fine.â You quickly reassured your friend. âI just.. Didnât realize it until you pointed it out.âÂ
âSo.. you do love him, do you?âÂ
You stayed silent for a few seconds, unsure how to break it to him. â...He makes me feel things no one has made me feel for a long time.âÂ
ââŚDoes he make you happy?â
You nodded in response. âHe makes me the happiest I can be.â He made me realize thereâs always a chance, a chance to love. You thought.
Thoma hums in understanding. âI see. Then I hope you get something good from rhat.âÂ
You smile gratefully. âThank you. Though, I feel bad our conversation went this way, we were just laughing a few minutes ago.âÂ
He quickly lets out a small laugh. âOh itâs no problem. At least you found something you didnât know, right?âÂ
You nodded. âYeah, thanks again, Thoma.âÂ
âAnything for you, ( Name ).âÂ
You decided to try and change the topic, clearing your throat. âUh, anyways, wanna share Good Hunterâs newest dessert together?âÂ
Thoma nods with a smile. âFine, but you better not finish everything in one go.âÂ
âHey!âÂ
â
It took perhaps another hour before you and Thoma decided to get the bill and get out of the restaurant. Unfortunately, your friend wonât be able to join you in going back inside Goth Grand Hotel once he drops you off, telling you how he has some things to do for Ayato and Chisato before they go off to their honeymoon destination.Â
As you enter the hotel lobby, you canât help but think back about what happened during your brunch with Thoma. What will happen between you and Diluc now? Will you still act the same as before, aware that your feelings for him are possibly more than platonic?
While thinking, you didnât notice someone behind you heading towards you until you felt them harshly gripping onto one of your shoulders.
You turn around, wondering who on Earth would be so rude to do such a thing, only for your eyes to widen when you realize who it is.Â
âGood afternoon, Mx. ( Last Name ).â Shinsuke greeted you with a smile thatâs obviously fake. âI apologize for bothering you on this fine day,â A lie, âbut I must request you to come with me somewhere more private.âÂ
You hesitated for a moment, knowing the risk if you said yes. But even so, whoâs to say what could happen if you turn down his request?Â
You look around the area, trying to look for someone who can notice your troubled situation and help you, only to unfortunately find no one around. If only you couldâve convinced Thoma to escort you back to your hotel roomâŚ
â...I suppose I could spare some time for a chat.â You said, trying to act calm.Â
You suddenly feel an eerie presence looming behind you, causing you to glance at your back and see a few bodyguards standing behind you â as if to prevent you from running away. Unlike the ones who were stationed for the wedding events, these particular guards were foreign, with strange but somewhat familiar symbols on their brooches. You could tell theyâre not like the bodyguards youâve seen.
âPerfect.â Shinsuke comments, and you start to regret accepting his offer. âCome with me.âÂ
Without letting you reply at all, the man turns and starts walking, causing the bodyguards behind you to shove you in order for you to follow, leaving you no choice but to oblige.Â
On your way, you hoped that you would at least encounter one of your friends, frantically glancing around the hotel lobby looking for a familiar face. Unfortunately, you finally arrived at what you assume is a private room.Â
Youâre going to be alone with Shinsuke and these scary bodyguards.Â
âBefore we can go in, I have one more thing to request of you.â Shinsuke spoke up before he could open the door. âTake your bag away and give it to one of the guards.âÂ
Your eyes widens, hesitantly looking at the bodyguards behind you, who all remain unfazed and emotionless. Slowly, you take out your bag from your body and pass it to one of the guards.Â
âDonât worry, they wonât open your bag and look through your things if thatâs what youâre worried about. We just need to make sure you won't try to... record anything and break our privacy.â Shinsuke said in a nice tone, as if thatâs enough to reassure you in this situation. âLetâs go inside now.â
You feel fear crawling up on your spine as you enter the room, unsure of whatâs going to happen to you.Â
The room is a conference room, with multiple chairs surrounding one long table as one of them is situated by the end of it; you assume that chair is where heâll be seated.Â
âGo sit down here.â He says, pulling back a seat thatâs right in the middle. âWe have a few things to talk about, it wonât be long, donât worry.âÂ
Swallowing down the lump in your throat, you carefully went to where the seat is, trying to contain your frantic breathing in order to hide your fear. The bodyguards that were following you both are situated outside.
By the time you sit down is when Shinsuke starts talking, not sitting down on a chair. âNow that weâre in a more private area, letâs start talking, shall we?âÂ
You nodded slowly. â..Is there a problem, Mr. Hiiragi?â You ask carefully.
He laughs, starting to walk slowly around you. âStraight to the point, I like that.â He comments. âYes, there is a problem, Mx. ( Last Name ). I'm sure you remember our conversation yesterday.âÂ
Your breath hitches; he proceeds to explain more. âYou see, this wedding is a very precious event to the Hiiragi Clan. Everyone thinks the lovely couple is perfect like straight out of a fairytale, so I like to keep it that way.â You watch as he brushes one of the chairs as he walks by. Did he find out about you and Ayato?Â
âSo when someone reported to me that they caught sight of you walking back inside the bachelor party venue together with the bride â who didnât bother hiding the fact that she was crying â I have to make sure allâs well.â He adds.Â
His eyes then narrow. âI hope you understand where Iâm coming from, and I fear that you might take the opportunity to taint the Hiiragi name and accuse that Chisato is unhappily married to Kamisato Ayato.âÂ
You shook your head frantically. âN-No, I wouldnât dare to do such a thing to my friends.âÂ
âHow should I know if youâre telling the truth? And before I knew it, the media would talk about how Chisato had unwillingly married the CEO of the Yashiro Company because of you and your schemes!âÂ
âI am telling the truth, Mr. Hiiragi! I wish nothing but happiness for the couple.âÂ
âAs if thatâs enough to do so.â He lets out a âtskâ, glaring down at you. âI have no choice but to get rid of you. Who knows when you will eventually risk tearing down my reputation!âÂ
You gasp aloud, immediately standing up from your seat. âGet rid of me?! But Mr. Hiiragi, thatâs too much! I havenât done anything ever since the bachelor party happenedââ
âYou dare to raise your voice on me!? Did you forget your place, or shall I remind you?!â He exclaims. You panic when he suddenly storms towards you, his hand slowly raises up to hit you.Â
Suddenly, the door opens, causing the man to stop himself from hitting you and look at the intruder.Â
âWas I interrupting something?â Â
Your eyes brighten when you recognize the personâs voice, and you look at the intruder whoâs standing by the doorway.Â
âO-Oh, Mr. Ragnvindr!â Shinsuke spoke, his tone is now nice and kind unlike a few seconds ago. âWhat a lovely surprise. I was just having a special meeting with Mx. ( Last Name ) regarding the weddingââ
âIâm here to talk about your pesky bodyguards who arenât doing their job rightâ Diluc spoke, his voice dark and cold â a big comparison to his gentle tone when he talks to you. âI was just passing by when they suddenly confronted me and dared to lay a hand on me for no reason.âÂ
You saw the way Shinsukeâs eyes widened, his eyebrows furrowing. âWhat?! How unprofessional of them! Where are they now?âÂ
Diluc opens the door wide. âFeel free to go check on them. I had to defend myself since they tried to fight me. Had this happened to someone else, I fear an innocent person would get hurt by their recklessness.â He scolded Shinsuke, who hesitated from his offer to check on the bodyguards.Â
The elder man glances at you, causing you to freeze up from his glare. âThis isnât over yet.â He mouths before looking back at the red-haired man. âI apologize sincerely on behalf of my bodyguards. Iâll make sure it wonât happen ever again.âÂ
âGood. Now leave.âÂ
Begrudgingly, Shinsuke heads out from the conference room. By the time the CEO is out of your sight, Diluc looks in your direction.
You feel your shoulders starting to relax. âDiluc.â
His eyes softened. â( Name ).â He then gestures to you to come with him. âCome with me. Letâs get you out of here.âÂ
When you come out of the conference room with Diluc being by your side, youâre surprised to see the sight of Shinsuke standing over the bodyguards on the ground, some groaning out in pain while some were out cold. Just what did Diluc do to them?Â
You dare not to question it, youâre just grateful that he saved you from Shinsuke.Â
As soon as you two are somewhere where most people donât come to in the lobby, you let out a breath you didnât know youâre holding.Â
âAre you alright?â Diluc asks worryingly, giving you your bag you didnât know he was holding. âWhat happened back there?âÂ
You slowly grab your bag from him, avoiding his gaze. âI⌠I donât know.. He just took me to that room and threatened me for something that happened in the bachelor party. I wouldnât dare to do that to my friends.â You clench your teeth at the audacity the cruel CEO has. âIâm just grateful you were able to come by before something happened. How did you know I was there?âÂ
âI saw one of the guards holding your bag.â He answers honestly. âI recognized it was the one you were carrying when we were taking a stroll around the garden, so I had to investigate. Did they hurt you?âÂ
You shook your head. âMr. Hiiragi was about to, but you made it in time before he could hurt me.âÂ
Dilucâs eyes slightly widened, before quickly narrowing his eyes at the thought that someone would dare to hurt you. âHow dare he.. I knew he wasnât good news.âÂ
âItâs fine⌠None of us couldâve predicted he would do something like this.â You mumbled. It was technically a lie, you knew someone like Shinsuke would do this, but you didnât want your friend to be worried and angry. âThank you for your help, Diluc. I owe you a lot.âÂ
âAnything for you.â He replied. He suddenly puts a hand on your shoulder in an attempt to comfort you, causing your heart to start beating fast while your cheeks begin to warm up from his words and gestures. âYou donât owe me anything. Just⌠be more careful, I donât want you to get hurt by someone as cruel and despicable as him.âÂ
You nodded slowly, your mouth twitching upwards. âIâll try.âÂ
âWere you heading towards your room?â He asks, and you hum softly in response. âI could escort you back there if youâd like. Just in case Mr. Hiiragi dares to come to you again.âÂ
You shook your head. âOh I donât want to bother you. I think I can go back on my own.âÂ
âI insist. It would hurt me if something bad happens to you again when I couldâve helped you.â He insists. âCome.âÂ
â...Thank you again, Diluc.â You spoke softly before the two of you started heading towards the elevator area thatâs across the hotel lobby from where you are.
The two of you didnât say a word to one another while youâre walking, but you didnât mind. You were still shaken up by what happened. Who knows when Shinsuke will try to bother you again? What if he comes to Liyue and ruins your life?Â
âWill you be alright, ( Name )?â He suddenly asks, causing your worrisome thoughts to fade away from his voice.Â
Before you could say anything, someone suddenly called Dilucâs name.Â
âDiluc?âÂ
You look around the area to look for the person who was calling your friend, spotting a woman standing not too far away from where you and Diluc are with her eyes brightening.Â
âThere you are! I was looking around for you.â She spoke, walking towards you two with a smile on her face. âDid you just get out of the hotel room?âÂ
You canât help but admire the woman whoâs now standing in front of you two. Sheâs quite beautiful, you admit. Is she perhaps a friend of Diluc? Or an acquaintance of his in the business world?Â
Or⌠Is she his plus one?Â
Diluc shakes his head. âNo, I just happened to come across a friend of mine and got distracted. Did you wait for too long?âÂ
The woman shakes her head as well, smiling reassuringly. âAh no, donât worry. I just entered the hotel.â She then looks at you. âHello, whatâs your name?â She asks you politely, causing your eyes to widen a bit in surprise.Â
âOh uhm.. My name is ( Name ) ( Last Name ). Itâs a pleasure to meet you, MsâŚ?âÂ
âYou can call me Jean. Thank you for keeping Diluc company while I was gone. I feel bad that I wasnât able to attend the wedding.â Jean said.Â
Ah, so she is his plus one.Â
You try to ignore a strange feeling bubbling in your chest. âItâs no problem, Iâm glad Iâm friends with someone like Diluc. I had a lot of fun and learned a lot more about Mondstadt thanks to him.âÂ
Jean giggles, a tune thatâs so sweet in your ears. âIâm glad my fiancĂŠ made a friend. I hope Iâll get to know you more, ( Name ).â
You felt like your heart dropped when you heard what Jean called Diluc, your face almost fell.Â
âŚ
FiancĂŠ?Â
â...O-Oh, you guys are engaged?â You asked, stunned from your realization.Â
Jean instantly covers her mouth. âOh, my bad.âÂ
âItâs alright, Jean.â Diluc reassures her, you saw the way he looks at her. Itâs different than the way he looks at you. âI was meaning to invite them to the wedding before they leave for Liyue.âÂ
Jean sighs in relief, then looks at you with an apologetic smile. âI apologize for the shock. But yes, me and Diluc are set to be married in December. We havenât announced our engagement to the public yet so weâd appreciate it if you could keep it a secret until itâs announced. Iâll make sure to give you an invitation tomorrow if thatâs fine with you!âÂ
You felt sick, swallowing the sour taste of heartbreak in your throat. âOf course! Iâm honored Iâm invited to your wedding. Congratulations on your engagement.âÂ
Youâre too caught up with the sudden news that you didnât notice the way Diluc looks at you in concern.
Jean didnât notice either, still smiling happily. âGreat, I hope weâll talk again next time. Iâm afraid Diluc and I have to go now to meet Mr. and Mrs. Kamisato before they leave. I hope youâll enjoy your stay in Mondstadt until you leave! Shall we, Diluc?âÂ
The red-haired man hesitantly looks at you, and you remembered how he was supposed to escort you. You feel selfish for wanting him to go with you, but you knew your place.Â
âGo.â You mouth to Diluc with a reassuringly small smile, despite your heart wanting him to stay. âIâll see you two next time. Itâs nice to meet you as well, Jean.â
â...See you next time, ( Name ).â Diluc spoke up before walking towards Jean.Â
Without another word, you turn away and walk back to where youâre supposed to be going. Away from Shinsuke, from your heartbreak,Â
And away from Diluc. Your first love for the first time in 4 years.Â
You tried your best to hold onto your facade that everythingâs normal and okay as youâre on your way back to the hotel room rushedly, your heart racing and lips shaking from what just happened.Â
You arenât sure if you were overwhelmed by what happened between you and Shinsuke, or from the unrequited love between you and Diluc.Â
You shouldâve known he wouldnât be single. You shouldâve known he was taken by someone as beautiful and amazing as Jean. You shouldâve remained oblivious to your feelings towards him,
You shouldâve known he would never see you that way.
By the time you enter the room and close the door behind you, you knelt down on the ground and let out a sob, dropping your bag as you cover your face with your hands.Â
Fuck, fuck, fuck!Â
Everything hurts. Everything is too much. You feel like youâre being burned inside as your heart aches deeply. You feel like you want to jump off a cliff and land in an ocean, never to be seen again. Why did you had to find out youâre in love when you found out your love is unrequited? Why is this happening to you? What did you do in your past life to deserve such cruelty?Â
You were so busy crying that you didnât notice Zhongli walking towards you in concern. Words didnât exchange between you two, but your friend knew what to do. He always comforts you whenever you cry about Ayato after drinking too much back then, reassuring you that youâll eventually move on someday.Â
He kneels down beside you, wrapping an arm around your shoulder comfortingly. You didnât hesitate to lean your head on his shoulder as a result, continuing to let out your wails and tears.Â
âI fell in love, but he⌠He belongs to another. Why does this always happen to me?â You sobbed.Â
Zhongli slowly pulls you closer to him. âI do not know.â
You let out another sob, closing your eyes shut. âIt hurts.âÂ
He closes his eyes as well, his heart aches at the sound of your cries. âI know.âÂ
That day, you didnât look at your phone anymore to see if he sent you a message. Spending the rest of your time engulfed in heartbreak as your dearest friend comforts you.Â
Just when you thought you were willing to fall in love, that chance was once again out of your reach.
Itâs true he made you realize thereâs always a chance, a chance to love.
Just not a chance to love him.
â
Somewhere by the hotelâs parking lot, someone is going through the same thing as you.
Thoma leans against the steering wheel of his car, exhaling deeply as he closes his eyes.
He knew heâd never have the chance to win your heart, yet it still hurts to think that youâre now in love with someone else. Donât get him wrong, heâs truly happy for you â especially knowing that you have never bothered trying to give love a chance again and never had a date with anyone since the break up.
He just wished it was him you had fallen in love with, even though it sounds as impossible as going to outer space in this life.
But nevertheless, it wasnât the fact that his love for you stayed strong and you still see him as just a friendâ
It was the fact that youâre in love with a man whoâs out of your reach.
Thoma didnât know what to think when he learned you love Diluc. He wanted to be happy for you â he knows the man has a good heart after hearing so many good things about him â but he knew youâre going to be heartbroken when you learned about his secret engagement with one of the most powerful and well-respected women in Mondstadt.
Thereâs nothing he can do about it. He can only hope youâd get through the same pain you felt back then.
Thoma lets out a sigh, leaning back up from the steering wheel.
Even if he cannot provide it, the blonde-haired man just wished that someday, youâd love someone who loves you too, with nothing that can stop you both,
Unlike the men you fell in love with.

I GOT BUTTERFLIES OMG THIS IS AMAZING
đ ; bury my heart out of sight (where you don't see me)
synopsis: they planted their heart in the ground, hoping feelings would subside. but they found it sprouting into the world once more (the moment they knew they were in deep but didn't speak their truth)
!! : masterlist.
word count: 2,834
pairings: albedo, itto, scaramouche, xiao x gn!reader (separate)
category: fluff, angst if you squint, modern/high school au, scenarios
warnings: mentions of bruises/injuries in xiao's part, fighting with scaramouche (not too physical)
notes: not afraid to say that the first half of some of these don't make sense- reblogs are greatly appreciated!! might write a part 2 with some other characters or a continuation if this fic does well
ALBEDO.
it was a study of character and emotions in his eyes. a study of character as in he wanted to know why your hands would lace together so nicely with his and why youâd bring a fluttering feeling to his chest when youâd smile. pages upon pages of notes were spread out on the desk, notes with his own observations and some that heâs seen on the internet before. to otherâs it mustâve been a surprise to see the usually level-headed blonde so caught up in something that wasnât a lab experiment. though when said out loud, he just smiled to himself on the inside, for heâs finally experiencing life as it is and not some sort of ship in a bottle.
âalbedo?â a small hum leaves his lips, turning in his chair to greet you with a soft smile.
âyouâre finally here.â he says, motioning a hand to an empty chair. you take a seat, watching as he sifts through sheets to uncover his sketchbook from beneath the mess and grabbing the pencil from behind his ear âthis shouldnât take too long and sorry again for taking up your time after school.â
âdonât worry about it. iâm in no rush to leave today.â you grin. albedo nods, suppressing the heat that started to creep up his neck. he starts with a few basic outlines on a blank page before letting himself wander and for a while, the soft dance of lead against the paper was the only thing filling the serene silence in the workspace.
â(y/n)?â you blink, tilting your head slightly as light-blue eyes scan your form. a cold hand reaches out, thumb on your chin and the others beneath as he positions your head, making sure the setting sun is hitting you just right. though he doesnât let go, letting himself bask a little more and to take notice of your features heâs grown to adore.
albedo loves your eyes. that isnât to say that he doesnât love all of you, but there was something about the way you gazed at him in the hallways that made him melt. heâs noticed the adoration that pooled within your irises when heâd meet your eyes and the lingering feeling of your touch left him wanting â no â needing more. he wanted to know so badly how a simple glance could have such a great impact. though perhaps coming up to you and asking if he could draw you in the art room wasnât the greatest way to ease his way into things.
your laugh brings him back to the present; hands gently cupping your face and noses so close they could touch if one of you decided to move.
âalbedo?â his eyes trail across your face, from the structure of your brows to the crease of your eyes, before coming to a stop at your lips. temptation rang through him as your curious gaze slowly morphed into a slow understanding. he clears his throat, retracting his hands and stepping back.
âsorry about that.â his heart was beating out of his chest, and it didnât seem to want to slow down anytime soon, especially when you laugh and give him such a big smile. the words lingered on the tip of his tongue, a simple string of sentences that ended with asking you to be his ready to be released. but instead, he holds them back, shoving them down and only letting out a weak chuckle. thereâd be a time for what he wants to say, one that would be perfect and out of a dream but today was not it. he picks up his sketchbook again, rubbing the back of his neck before grabbing his pencil again.
âah so, where were we again?â
ITTO.
âhey! wait up!â you look back to see itto running towards you, the button up underneath his sweater vest all crumpled and collar undone. it always surprises you how the teachers never seem to scold him for having his uniform all messy. though maybe they just gave up on doing so. he slings an arm around your shoulder, pressing his weight onto you as he hides under your umbrella.
âwhew! glad i caught up to you in time before you left.â he grins, bag over one shoulder as his damp hair tickles your neck.
âforget your jacket again, itto?â you chuckle, adjusting the umbrella so it would cover the both of you better âif iâd known that sooner, i wouldâve left faster.â
âwhat? me forgetting my jacket? psh noooooooo as if!â he crosses his arms âit's dangerous to walk home alone yâknow so i thought iâd tag along. yeah, to be your bodyguard!
âyou know i can handle myself just fine, itto.â you nudge him with your elbow playfully, a smirk on your face.
âoh câmon!â he groaned âwe live close by to each other and i donât want to go home soaking wet! besides,â he turns his head to face you, a mischievous glint in his eye, before swiping the umbrella out of your hands and starting to jog off âi can always return this to you tomorrow!â
âwait get back here! what happened to wanting to protect me hah?!â his laugh can be heard through the pounding rain as the splash of your footsteps in the puddles only made him run faster. did he feel bad? sort of. itto knew heâd have to make it up to you somehow if you ended up getting sick because of him. apologies wouldnât mean too much so maybe buying you your favourite snack would work instead. too lost in thought, he failed to notice how your steps have caught up to him.
âhey!â he lets out a grunt as you slap him on the back, making him trip over his own feet. sitting up and rubbing his head, he looks up at your frowning face that didnât seem to be all too genuine.
âare you hurt?â you ask, picking up the discarded umbrella and scanning him over for any injuries. he patted himself down and gave a thumbs up.
âjust my pride and ego but thatâs nothing a little kiss wouldnât fix.â you snort and hold out a hand to him. he takes your hand, fawning on the inside about how perfectly they fit together, before yanking you down to the ground with him, making you drop the one bit of covering you hand in the middle of the street once again.
âbet you werenât expecting a surprise attack, were ya!â he grins at the sound of your laugh and responds with his own when you wrestle him into a headlock, messing his wet hair around.
âfine you win! but you owe me!â he looks up at you the best he can with his hair in his face and your arm wrapped around his head.
youâd taken off rather quickly after that, using your already soaked through bag as a makeshift umbrella, leaving him with lingering feelings. everything about this felt so right yet so wrong to where he couldnât help but chuckle. he could only imagine what wouldâve happened if heâd accidentally said anything about this. he canât lose one of his closest friends, not just yet.
âin love with my best buddy, huh?â ittoâs grip tightens on your umbrella as he slicks back his hair away from his face âi better not screw this up.â
SCARAMOUCHE.
a string of curses were muttered under his breath as he stormed down the hallway, entering the classroom and shutting the door with a bang. the teacher on duty for the day only gave a half-hearted glare at the cause of the noise as he tossed his bag by a desk. slipping into the desk not too far from yours, scaramouche groans and ruffles his hair, scowling as he sees you resting your head on the desk, arms acting as a pillow. from what he can see, you showed no care that you were stuck in detention and if anything, you appeared more relaxed.
the teacher up at the front closed their book, giving the two of you a pointed look and firm instructions to stay in your seats while they went to go take care of something. the door closed and a beat of silence passed before scaramouche stood abruptly, the chair screeching against the classroom floor. he slams his hands down on your desk, watching you slowly raise your head from your arms to face him and wearing that signature smirk that always sends a rush to his head.
âwhat now, scara? was the little fight we had in the hallways not enough for you?â
âwhy did you do it?â his frustrations only grow as you blink, giving no response back. with an angered grunt, he grabs the collar of your shirt and leans over the desk more, pressing you into the back of the seat âanswer me!â
âwhoa whoa! as far as iâm concerned, i donât even know what i did besides tossing a few words around.â raising your hands in mock surrender, the smile never leaving your face âwant to explain what this is all about?â
âyou-â he huffs, a red tone coming to his face as he shuts his eyes âyou idiot! youâre insufferable to work with!â he released his hold and threw his hands up in frustration, glaring at you.
âouch. guess i hit a nerve there.â you rubbed the back of your head with a chuckle âbut if you want me to remember then youâre going to have to say it.â he clenched a fist at your words. usually, heâd be able to take on conversations like this one with ease, able to keep a calm face while making the other crumble beneath his words. yet you somehow made him lose all cool. he groaned, cursing under his breath as he regained some of his bearings.
âyou- you kissed me in the middle of an argument.â he rubbed his temples âand i want to know why.â you think for a moment, tapping your finger against your lip.
âwell, the easy answer is that i just wanted to shut you up.â you give him a closed eye grin âbesides from my observations you didnât object to the action. in fact, you even kissed me back.â scaramoucheâs face goes red and this time, he canât tell if itâs from embarrassment or pure anger. he walks back up to you, leaning on the desk again.
ânow you listen here-â you take his chin in your hand and press you finger to your lips in a shushing motion.
âthe teacherâs coming back soon. donât want to get in trouble for being out of your seat now, do you?â scowling, he yanks himself out of your grasp and flips you off before plopping back in his chair, mouthing to you that this isnât over and turning his head to the door.
just as you had said, the teacher walked back in, scanning their eyes over the room to make sure nothing was out of place and nodding before sitting back at their desk and opening their book again. crossing his arms, scaramouche lets out a small tsk and looks away from how youâve gone back to resting your head in your arms. thereâs something about you that infuriates him so badly in the way that you question his every word with a teasing smile on your face. just thinking about it makes his cheeks go red (with anger of course). but even he canât deny that the interactions light up a small bout of joy that makes his usual face start to crack at the sides. he barely registers the teacher saying itâs alright to leave now and runs a hand through his hair, disrupted from thought when you drop a note on the desk before making your way out of the room. hesitantly, he picks it up and unfolds it, grip tightening as he scans the contents.
âthanks for keeping me entertained
on our little detention date, scara
you never fail to amuse me with your antics ;)
(y/n) <3
p.s. if you wanted to be alone with me you shouldâve just said so. thereâs no need to start a fight in order to do so darlingâ
with a sigh, he shoves it in his pocket and resists the urge to slam a hand down on the table. So, you want to play the game this way, huh? fine. heâll indulge in your actions. even if they feel like a nuisance to him.
âiâve become stupid with this madness, havenât i?â he mutters, pushing in the chair and walking into the empty hallway âmay the best one win.â
XIAO.
he lets out a small grunt as the cloth wet with rubbing alcohol was lightly dabbed against his lower lip. the slow tick of the off-time clock cuts through the weight in the air as he stares at the concentrated look on your face. features gently twisted into a frown with your brows furrowed and the frustrated, yet understanding, look in your eyes. your hand takes his chin and turns his head, inspecting the bruise that started to form on his cheek.
âxiao-â he lightly swats your hand away, not bothering to look at you and using his hand to cover the bruise.
âleave it. iâm fine.â an uncomfortable silence rests over the two of you again. he flexes his hand absentmindedly, wincing slightly at the stiffness in his knuckles and how the reddened skin was starting to bruise as well. his eyes darted around the room, from the stool you were sitting on to the cabinets where youâd gotten the rubbing alcohol from and finally resting on the clock where it read that it was nearing 4:30. slowly moving his gaze back to you, he watched silently as you shifted in your spot, unsure of how to approach him. clenching his fist again with a quiet sigh, he reached his hand out to you, hesitating slightly as you looked at him with quizzical and unsure eyes.
âjust... be quick with it.â he closed his eyes, wondering to himself why your hands that held his with so much care made him glow inside, basking in the warmth that you generated in his chest. the rest of it was done in mostly silence, the exception being the small soothing hums that would bubble in your throat whenever you felt his flinch from your grasp.
opening his eyes, xiao turned his head more to face you, watching as you wrapped his knuckles and cleaned off the remaining dirt from his fingertips. pulling his hand back once you were done, he noticed how you eyed the bruise on his face. sighing, he flicked your forehead, lips twitching at the corners as you whined and rubbed the spot. though the lightened moment was quickly snuffed out.
âwhy did you fight them?â the question made him freeze. âbecause it was naturalâ is what he wanted to say since it was. keeping the ones you like closely protected is something that shouldnât have to be explained. but the way those people made his blood boil with their taunts and words felt different. he felt the way rage bubbled and spilled over into his words and how his vision slowly went red. all that because those words were directed at you. he huffed, crossing his arms.
âthey ticked me off. thatâs all.â you give a small smile, knowing how he wasnât telling the full truth. standing from your seat, you placed everything back carefully, closing the cabinets and looking back at him.
âjust- please be more careful next time. i worry about you, xiao.â he scoffed, trying to ignore the way his heart picked up and the red hues snaking their way up his neck.
âiâm capable of handling myself. thereâs no use for your worry.â you pick up your bag, resting a hand on his shoulder lightly. xiao hated to admit it in his mind but he couldnât help but slowly sink into your touch.
âeven so, iâm always there for you, ok?â he struggles to keep in the whine that threatens to leave his throat when your hand pulls away. reaching for his own bag, he paused for a moment as he registered you saying bye for the weekend and in almost an instant, his body reacted before he could think.
â(y/n). waitâ xiao grabbed your hand, stopping your movements as you faced him again with a perplexed look. he could spill everything in this one moment: finally ridding himself of this feeling in his chest for the time being. the words caught in his throat, leaving him open-mouthed with a red face. xiao shudders, everything he wants to say is right there but he just canât.
âhmph.â he hastily letâs go and averts his eyes away from your quizzical gaze ân-never mind. sorry for keeping you so late and thanks for your help. not that i needed it.â
scaramouche x reader | kazuha x reader | xiao x reader
A/N. this randomly came to me when i was scrolling threw twt, based off a kazuscara fanart- Also holy shit iâm back sorry for like the year of me ghosting this account đ
.trapped In a small space with them
.afab reader(?) mentions of âboobsâ, very sexual. Perv!xiao, very ooc xiao in this fics, implied taller!reader for scaramoucheâs part.
> You arenât ..exactly sure ..how you got In to this- predicament,,
> You and Scaramouche were just scouting out the area, But I guess neither of you notices the obvious leaf trap.
> And it was to late when you guys tried to walk over it and fell in to a Very, very, very small hole.
âCan you Move over?â
âYou know, dear, that would be super easy if i had any room to move over to.â
You can hear a scoff come from him in the dark. You were currently trying to figure out how to get out of the situation you were in. Your husband keeps wiggling, some how thinking it might get him out.
Now sense itâs pitch black, You canât exactly see the predicament Scaramouche has gotten himself in. His hands are on the wall against your back, his leg in between yours, And His face is pressed right against your breasts. You donât mind the position heâs gotten himself in- In fact you think itâs funny, take it as payback for moving too much.
On the other hand- Scaramouche is beet red, and very embarrassed. But heâs stuck, and canât do anything unless you move.
you can hear a low grunt come from him, and then you hear him clear his throat. âHey.â
you smirk- not that he can see it. âHi..â
You hear him shuffle a little and adjust his position before he speaks up again. âCan you, like, shuffle your position, a bit?â You sigh and try and shift your position- but in the worst way possible. You lean over him and push him so heâs the one leaning against the wall, and your breasts are pushed up against his face. âIs this better?â you ask.
Well, This isnât exactly what he wanted, and heâs not complaining- well he is but only because heâs frustratedly flustered. He canât even reply with your breasts in his face. His legs feel like jelly, his hands are shaking and his face is beat red.
Youâre like this for another hour or so, before you hear commotion from above. Scaramouche tries to shuffle out of this embarrassing situation, but instead accidentally tickles you which results in you giggling. âYou fool, stop squirming! here, Iâll moveâ You lean your back against the wall so he can finally breathe. He huffs and looks up to see Tartaglia- Never in his life has he thought heâd be grateful to see the 11nth harbinger.
> You were so careful that this wouldnât happen.
> You weâre trapped in a small storage closet with kazuha, after beidou asked you to fetch something from the closet. It locks from the outside.
> A crew member just so happened to accidentally shove kazuha- who was holding the door open- in to the closet with you.
> And here you are, Anxious, embarrassed, flustered, frustrated. All in a small closet with kazuha, your crush .
Youâre breathing heavily, your chest rising up and down repeatedly. âWe need to get out of here, god I canât let anyone catch me like this-â you breathe out in stuttered breathes.
âYou should calm down, stressing wonât help the situation.â Kazuha says, trying to help you calm down. But itâs no use when he doesnât know your embarrassingly huge crush you have on him. âBreathe in and breathe out, take a moment to calm down.â He says, and you slow down and listen.
Breathe In, and Breathe out. Breathe In, and Breathe- Suddenly your jerked forward with kazuhaâs back hitting the door and him cushioning your fall. The ship must have taken a huge wave. But that only made the situation worse.
The lights dimmed out, but you can still see. You frantically look around and you look down at kazuha whoâs squished between your breasts.
Ok. Panic Mode now.
You urgently try and Shuffle out of this embarrassing position. At the failed attempt, you curse under your breathe. âGod dammit.â You then result in leaning more in to kazuha- much to your dismay. You try and jam the door open but itâs no use. Your breathes are staggered and your panicking.
Kazuha takes your hips and rubs circles on them trying to calm you down. Which did the exact opposite. Your heart is racing but atleast it stops your movements. He shuffles a bit so he can speak. ây/n. please, calm down. Weâll just have to wait till someone opens the door.â you try and choke out a response but with how his hands are on your hips, his face pushed up against your chest, and his calming words. Your at a loss.
about 10 minutes of silence goes by. When finally kazuha speaks up. âAre you ok?â he breathes out, and you nod. âmhm..yeah, Iâm ok..are you?â He stops his movements for a second, before continuing and humming, sending vibrations threw your chest. âIâm perfectly content.â You can just feel him smirk.
You shuffle your feet for a second, you thought now would be a great time to confess your feelings. as you open your mouth, the door clicks and opens. Leading you both falling down with you on top of him, the whole crew staring at you and your face the color of a tomato.
Xiao.
> You weâre exploring abandoned ruins and buildings with xiao
> You came across a coffin-shaped box and was looking inside
> until xiao bumped in to you (totally on accident..) and you guys fell in to the coffin
Xiao was underneath you while you were on top.
You were pretty calm, not thinking about anything else other then getting out. You tried to nudge the coffin cover open but you couldnât from the angle you were at.
You Huff, and whisper in his ear, âhey, xiao, try and nudging the cover off.â your breath fawns his neck and his breath hitches, But he reaches around your body to try and push the cover off. He attempted, but it was a weak attempt- he did that on purpose. Thankfully you couldnât tell, you figured it was the position you two were in that made it difficult.
You didnât know what to do, But your arms were getting tired from supporting your body weight, and you didnât think anyone would come across the ruins anytime soon. You slowly begin to lean your body weight on xiaoâs, your breasts Pushed up near his face, your heavy breathing, and your leg between his.
youâre about to relax fully before you feel his hands creep up the back of your thighs and on to your butt. You freeze and your breath hitches. What is he doing? does he think your asleep? You can feel him lean in to your breasts. Wait. Is he sniffing you?? youâre too scared to do or say anything. He rubs his hands up and down your butt and thighs, while nuzzling between your breasts.
His hands seem to be wandering under your clothes, but before his hands can get too far the cover snatches open and you look up to find Hu tao smirking down at you, youâre never gonna live this one down.
10:41 am 7/26/2022

scara + xiao x reader (separate)
summaryâ> your at an interview and your boyfriend gets asked âwhatâs your role in the house?â
warning(s)/genre: fluff, kind of suggestive? modern AU. Gn!reader, cursing
A/N; this was so fun to write, this was the best request ever. I hope this is fine! I liked the request, but didnât really have an idea on how to write it. I hope this is good enough!
Xiao;
Both you and xiao are pop Idols, one of the most famous idol couples in the community.
you got invited to an interview about your jobs, and your relationship. which you gladly accepted.
You had to drag xiao on to the plane to come. (he doesnât like interviews, especially about his personal life)
You both agreed not to share too much personal information. wanting to keep it private, just for you and xiao. and maybe some close friends.
âwelcome! the ever so famous couple: Xiao and Y/n, how are you this evening?â
âWeâre doing good! the flight wasnât too bad, xiao took a nap so he should be fine for this short interviewâ you smile, taking xiaoâs hand in yours as he huffs and blushes.
âI see! Itâs great that the flight went well. Ready for Q&A time?â
âof course.â âletâs get this over with.â
After a flood of questions from your fans, finally getting to the last one!
âlast one, ready?â
âyup!â you cheer, and xiao nods his head, rubbing circles on to your hand.
âAlrighty, anonymous asks: âXiao, whatâs your role at home?â
Before your boyfriend can even answer the question himself, you jump in cutting him off, âbeing submissive and breedable.â
Xiaoâs head whips to you, Face covered in red blush. ây/n!â
You and the interviewer are giggling while xiao is having a mini panic attack, questioning his life choices. Head in hands trying to cover the blush on his face.
âWell that was sure a great way to hit off this interview! Thank you for coming here today, y/n and xiao!â
Scaramouche;
Your boyfriend is a popular gamer, and he decided to go to vidcon this year
in which you tagged a long, including some of his friends decided to join (childe, dottore, signora) much to his disliking
Scara was on a panel, inviting you to sit with him because he didnât trust you to be anywhere other then beside him.
It was a panel with other youtubers/twitch streamers, including childe and dottore
After dottore finished talking about what his channel was about (building/experiments, kinda like mattpat) Childe decided to tease scara a bit, with you in on a prank ofc.
Childe, turning to where you and scara sat on the furniture on stage, he smiled, âhey Y/N, why donât you answer a question.â
âMe? oh, uhm sur-â
âAbsolutely not.â scara cuts you off, âI donât trust you enough to ask them a question, what if you set them up.â he huffs crossing his arms.
already knowing he was gonna say this, childe counters his argument âwell, then why donât you answer the questionâ he has a sneaky grin on his face.
he sighs, and rolls his eyes. âfine, whatever, whatâs the damn question.â
âwell, one of your fans asked, âwhatâs your role at the house?â
âwhat?â he scoffs, âexample?â
âscara, honey, they mean like being a house wife, male wife, etc-â you explain for him.
â-what kind of question is that? ugh, if you have to know itâs-â itâs your turn to cut him off,
with a mischievous grin on your face you put a hand over your boyfriendâs mouth and yell, âbeing submissive and breedable!â you giggle as your boyfriend yanks your hand off his mouth and covers yours
âWHAT THE FUCK?!â
childe and dottore are laughing their asses off, the fans are screaming and laughing, clapping at your courage to yell that out.
âIâm not taking you to vid con anymore.â
âbut this was my first time!â
âand your last.â
you get up from your seat, âwell atleast iâm not submissive and breedable, scara.â you giggle and dash off the stage before he can grab you.
heâs internally dying.

warnings: nsfw, MINORS DNI, drugging, bdsm, perv albedo, stalking ment, light talk on blood kink, cum play, exhibitionism, wax play, degrading, breeding kink, hair pulling
notes: i kept thinking of that fred song âmy babysitters a vampireâ while writing this and im sorry this is so late i meant to post this like 2 days ago
albedo
i just wanted to touch more on pervy albedo
can u imagine it.
albedo probably takes pictures of you and says their âfor the memoriesâ or âsomething to remind me of you when you leave mondstadtâ
but he really only has them to jerk off to them cmon now
this is gonna sound stalker-ish but albedo probably watches u change through ur window
UVE PROBABLY CAUGHT HIM ONCE TOO
itâs such a funny thought to me omg
you see him outside ur window with his dick in his hand and heâs a stuttering mess LMFAO
youâve probably caught him staring at ur ass a couple times too
if you ever go to the beach with him.. iâm praying for ur safety..
i feel like albedo would be a little bit of a family guy too
imagine babysitting klee with him and heâs just watching like âyeah.. iâm gonna have a family with u..â
breeding kink imo
arataki itto
sex.
i love him.
if you look closely on him you can see he has a spiked collar
pull it i DARE YOU
again,
MONSTER DICK
slaps his whole abdomen
probably big enough to kill a dragon
OK LET ME GET SERIOUS
he probably has a blood kink
just a lil one
like heâll scratch up your thighs or bite you till you bleed bc he knows the mark will last
loves when you ride him
all of it can barely fit so he has to help you out
when he sees his dick imprint on ur stomach heâs going wild
he WILL go many rounds too
rip you and your holes bc he will fill ALL OF THEM
cums a lot
an unrealistic amount because i said so
if you donât like cum play or any mess, heâll TRY to stay clean
try
he fails in the end but he gets A for effort
diluc
yes.
my boy toy.
idk if i covered this already or not but enjoys wax play
heâll light a candle and hold it over u and just watch it melt onto u
probably likes it on himself too
(if ur ever fucking him and heâs comfortable with it do it heâll love you forever)
PULL!! HIS!! HAIR!!
whether youâre top or not, give it a nice lil tug
he may or may not moan
i forget whatever i said about him in the first hcs but this man is my whore idc
yes, heâs fucked you in the tavern
heâs fucked you while on the job too
heâll take you to the back and give you that dickmeister9000
donât play with him!!
doggy style, his favorite.
i feel like while diluc would fuck you in the tavern, heâs shy so he likes to keep you in the winery
the maids have definitely walked in on it more than once
it was just awkward staring before the poor maid just left
at this point adelinde is used to it though
so while itâs happening she just acts like normal and leaves
itâs scary as fuck
diluc probably got a few tips from albedo and may or may not have added a little extra sumthin sumthin to a new wine he wanted you to try
heâs experimental let him live
scaramouche
if this mf donât get some damn official art
anyway
an absolute menace.
LIKE
HE WILL RUIN YOU
and heâs so mean too
he will degrade you to all hell
and heâs rough omg..
deadass i think his dick is like 7 inches
idk them short people be packing sometimes
hate sex is like normal with him
WAIT IMAGINE UR BOTH ENEMIES AND UR BOTH TIRED OF THE SEXUAL TENSION SO U SKIP RIGHT TO THE SEX
iâm a geniusďżź
probably into bdsm too
will tie you up
WILL PROBABLY SHOCK U WITH ELECTRO TOO
SPOILERS FOR INAZUMA STORY QUEST!!!
so u know how he kinda drugged mc in that place when we meet him again
what if he does that to uâŚ
WITH CONSENT OF COURSE
spoilers over
i feel like scaramouche would actually be really big on consent
safe words with him are a must
he wants u to feel safe and comfortable
heâll fuck you into oblivion yea
but only if ur okay with that
venti

itâs long.
like you would never imagine it
but itâs long

ooo pull his braids
PULL THEM HARD
he will love it.
fucked him so good he wrote a song abt it
Wooow! Just found you yesterday, and I love all of your fics, sm!!! Could you do a Bennett x Male Reader x Razor (platonic)? Where it's them being bros. đ Maybe you could incorporate Bennett's constant misfortune. And they're the new Benny's Adventure Team.
ăâăăâăăâăăâă
°â˘A/n: I'm posting this at 4 am cuz I've been trying to brainstorm more ideas but nothing came to mind, I'm so sorry this took so long and with how short it is, anon :(
âWarningâ: none(?)
°â˘Characters: Bennett and Razor
°â˘Reader: intended as m!reader, can be read as gn!reader
bennett and you were friends first due to the fact your parent(s) help the guild a lot, so naturally you guys are joint at the hip
your parent(s) love bennett as much as you do, they love how positive he is despite his misfortune and hope his positivity will rub off on ur negative ass
when you and bennett met razor it was when you guys were gathering some wolfhook and ended helping razor and an injured wolf
razor taught you both how to hunt and on multiple occasions you, bennett and razor would cook over an open flame together, sometimes the wolfs join you three
you taught razor how to make flower crowns and you both made one for bennett that was made with windwheel Aster and calla lilies
Can I request genshin impact Short genshin boys (Specifically Tighnari, Cyno, Heizou, Venti, And Kazuha) with a lazy yet genius male reader. If you donât do Headcanons with multiple people then Iâll let you choose one of the short boys
ăâăăâăăâăăâă
°â˘A/n: so, I left out Cyno since i don't have a good understanding of his character yet Imo, also so sorry for not writing this sooner, love. i have been a bit busy with things :')
âWarningsâ: none(?)
°â˘Characters: Tighnari, Heizou, Venti and Kazuha
°â˘Reader: male, can be read as gn tho
What is he gonna do with you?
Don't get him wrong, he absolutely adores you but can you PUlease get your work done?
As much as loves taking naps with you somewhere in the forest he doesn't want you putting your work till last minute
Again, might he add
You two first met in the academias library...you were passed out while reading for one of ur major exams the night before
While other scholars and students thought you were cheating your way through, cuz all they see you doing is napping or messing around
Tighnari has experienced ur hard work, and to answer ur question, no it wasn't because he was tutoring you or through a group project, we aren't in a romantic fantasy ofc or are we-
No, thanks to his good hearing, he can hear your mumbling when you're memorising or the scribblings of your pen when it hits the paper
You and him make a good team when it comes to research or work in general
He keeps you motivated to finish the said project without procrastinating and you not only remind him to take brakes, you have also stopped him from poisoning himself with wild mushrooms on multiple occasions-
You also love using his tail as a pillow, and he let's you! :D
Honestly, if it wasn't for your laziness, you would've given him a run for his mora-
ofc he'll never admit you could be a better detective than him, not only for his pride but also to keep Sara away from you
He LOVES when you visit his office <3
Plus you almost always bring snacks with you
Sometimes you tag along with him to the crim scenes
Yes, technically, he isn't allowed to bring you there but he loves when you help him out
And lemme tell you, he LOVES how after you two are done, your eyes get droopy and an adorable pout-
He'll die happy if you were his last memory
While this alcoholic loves and appreciates how smart you are- he loves that your lazy way more
Why? Well, he likes napping with you during the afternoon on the hands of his statue, you also bring blankets and pillows too
Dw he helps getting them up there-
Every time there's an event at angels share he drags you with so you can calculate the cheapest price he can get for high quality wine
Loves listening to you rambling about ur work while slowly falling asleep <3
He does drag you on walks tho, he worries so daily walks in or out of mondstad is a thing
Offered you a sip of his fave wine only to drop his glass once you told him you figured out the ingredients and methods in making it
Kaeya lifting his eye patch with his jaw going slack in the background after hearing what you just said
Goo goo eyes in your direction 24/7 from him but your too tired to notice
Loves reading poetry to you and loves getting feedback from his beloved bunny <3
Calls you bunny cuz he saw your cheek squashed against the table you were working on and thought of a bunny
You tried to write a poem for him but it took so long that you thought to give him it another day-
..only for him to find it and blush like a madman while reading what you wrote
It doesn't even have to be good cuz he's touched that you squeezed in the time to write this from him, knowing how many projects you have going on
When you pull all nighters, he lights calming sented candles, makes you the drink or snack of your choice, gives you a kiss on the forehead with encouraging words and leaves you be to focus
Looking into the things your passionate about to engage in a conversation about it just cuz it makes you happy and they way your eyes light up is just so beautiful to him
