Understanding his hesitance, you try to assist him and comfort any concerns he held, you grasp his hand firmly and tilt your head into the palm of his glove. Hesitantly, a hand reaches up and hovers next to your cheek. Can he really hold you in return, with hands stained of blood? a concerned gaze burns into his soul, he forced himself out of his own head to relieve you of any worries you had shown towards his unfortunate. Does he really deserve this? No, he didn’t feel he did. Your worried eyes trace him, trying to figure out if you had done something wrong. Your question left a war of conflict in the boys mind, feeling the distant voices from bygone gods within his mind fade in and out- unable to snap out of it. He may not admit it, but it was clear the warmth was precisely what he sought. You weren’t too sure of doing this before, but now after seeing his reaction- you could tell it was not only you who enjoyed it. “ You want me to continue? ” You inquired, a gentle smile creeping up to your features as you try to get a sense of what he is thinking. “ Why’d you stop? ” Xiao grumbles grouchily, lifting a hand to his lips, he felt his own gloved fingers glaze across the spots you ambushed with such care. From his cheek, to his nose, he awaited your next move until it seemed to have ended at the corner of his mouth, The tingles left behind your delicate touch was unmatched, fleeting warmth only to rejoice once again somewhere else. Part of him felt the need to push you away, what in the world were you thinking to be of such closer with someone as dangerous as him? but, he couldn’t do it. Managing to keep his composure as you lean in again, laying gentle kisses all across his face.
Eyes follow your form, trying to process what you had done. Leaning in, you leave a soft peck to his forehead, directly on the purple diamond laid upon his skin. The warm glow of lanterns could never compare to the gentle gaze he held with you. Pupils dilate, focusing on you and you alone. Xiao lifted his head from it’s previous position, downcast to the ground, his eyes met with yours once again. “ You and I both know you love me, foolish or not. Choosing to remain silent after your charades to mock him, a soft flush began to rise within his cheeks unknowingly, as you approached. Not only was your impression of him far from accurate, the way you stared back at him only bugged the poor “Conqueror Of Demons” beyond imaginable, At the end of the day, Xiao knew he couldn’t find the will of telling your antics off. Lifting a hand, he pinched the bridge of his nose.
Xiao’s expression remained unwavering as ever, eyeing you like a hawk with the blankest, sharpest of stares before he released a sigh of what seemed to be bubbling frustration. “ If you awake to a knife at your throat,” You began, “ if monsters dig their claws into you, if death comes knocking at your door, call out my name. You were a mere step away from one-another, not minding the closeness.
You glance at the adepti you’ve grown rather fond of, your figure reflected in those stunning golden eyes. Trying your best not to grin, resisting the urge was near impossible. Looking away whenever you caught on to his gaze. Previously you both admired the wonders of nature surrounding this treehouse of an Inn, however at some point Xiao found himself staring at you instead. “Hey Xiao, you remember what you said in this very same place when we first became acquainted?” You stare off into the endless wild outside of the Wangshuu Inn, the breath of Liyues chilling breeze never failed to feel more refreshing. > Note - Ĭrossing your arms, you find yourself standing firmly in place with glimmering eyes.
