ping! hyuck <3 sent you a video!

you smile as the two notifications are immediately opened, the clock had just struck twelve—meaning it was now officially your anniversary.

“happy anniversary, pretty! i’m so sorry i couldn’t be by your side today, but to make up for it,”

his small note was accompanied by a short tiktok that was filmed by him. your heart melts as the smile on your lips widen even more—nearly forgetting to press the ‘heart’ reaction to your lovely boyfriend’s message.

teehee layout change ;pp

another chenle drabble bc why the freak not !!! a non-idol!chenle x shy!reader drabble ( ◠‿◠ )

warning/s: reader swears a little more than usual here, but only around once or twice!

game with me — zcl.

in which he makes you play minecraft with him.

—

“c’mon babe! it’ll be funnn~” your pouty boyfriend whines as he tugs on your sleeve. he’s been trying to slowly pull you from your comfortable position on your bed to the ‘swivelly’ chair he’s set up next to his. your eyes glance at your laptop that’s already open and running next to his own pc.

you sigh, scratching at your nape, “but lele—i don’t even know how to play!” your reason doesn’t seem to be enough as the boy simply grins at you as he tugs a little more forcefully.

“that’s why i’m here! i’ll teach you everything you need to know.”

and that’s how you find yourself, sitting quite close next to chenle as you two mined your way through the block cave of minecraft. chenle smiles, continuously praising you as you stumble upon random ore chunks as you go.

“you’re doing so well,” chenle grins, feeling his heart swell as you fight off a zombie from your makeshift home in the middle of nowhere. you roll your eyes at his compliment but your lips tugs itself into a smile nonetheless.

you don’t know how much time passes, but you eventually find yourselves with a beautiful block home, made of wooden planks and surrounded by colorful flowers—that chenle picked out all by himself—your boyfriend urging you to go ‘to the nether’ with him. with your little knowledge of the game, you happily comply.

“chenle! it’s so scary what the fuck?!” you find yourself screeching as an unknown mob chases after you, attacking you and bringing you down to half health. chenle’s loud laugh echoes through the room as he swoops in, effectively killing off the piglin, the freakish mob that nearly killed you. “you’re not dying on my watch y/nnie!”

you roll your eyes, feeling your cheeks heat up as your character munches on a few pieces of steak. chenle ends up having to lead you all throughout your journey across the nether, aggressive whipping out his iron sword when any mob comes close to you. “not my y/n!” he’d shout over and over, you’d laugh at his antics because, truly, they were so endearing.

you’re not aware of the sudden silence of the world, nor do you realize that it’s already dark outside when chenle is leading you towards another portal—the ‘end portal’ as he called it, and when a bunch of small rat looking mobs start to attack you—you’re yelping and cursing at your screen.

“this is gonna be scary again isn’t it?” chenle laughs aloud at your obvious grimace, but you comply after he promises that he’d be right by your side the entire time.

after clicking on your beds, he’s urging you to jump into the black portal. your character is teleported into a small box, which chenle says is normal but you find it kind of weird. you’re quick to understand though, when tall endermen await your intrusion on the other side.

“babe! lele—shit!” you gasp when one of them starts its attack on you, your mouse freezing when your screen dims and—

you died!

chenle finds this heavily amusing, his hand going up to pat your head, “you did well, babe.”you scowl, “you said you wouldn’t let me die!”

chenle smiles sheepishly at you, but you let him go as he presses a chaste kiss to your cheek before waiting patiently for you to get back to the end.

—

this is quite literally, inspired by pudding. yes um the dessert… a teenage!chenle x waitress!reader. in celebration for 45 followers !!! ily all:(

pudding — zcl.

in which his pudding seems to taste sweeter when you’re the one who’s serving it.

—

“are you ever going to stop coming here?” mark raises a brow at his younger friend. he didn’t even try to hide his grimace, watching as chenle lets out his loud laugh.

“of course.” grinning, chenle points at the small yellow-ish sweet sitting toward the front of the food display. mark huffs—murmuring a phrase that sounds awfully like “you’re gonna get diabetes at this rate dude.”, but chenle chooses to ignore it. the black haired boy wanders over to his usual seat, his hands going to pull out his phone from his pocket to snap a picture of the cafe as he always did.

you weren’t surprised when mark wanders into the room you were in, his face looking awfully grim, “chenle’s here for you again.” his quip made you laugh—the grim appearance was really just mark’s own way of teasing the two of you.

“you’re just bitter no one comes to see you.” smiling, you tighten your hair tie as you push the door open with your bottom, expertly carrying a tray to place the sweet onto it.

you recognize chenle before he even looks up from his phone, his cheeks ablaze as he quickly puts his phone away. “hey.”

“hi. one serving of pudding as usual?” your sweet smile awakens the butterflies in the boy’s stomach—the ringing of the charms of your bracelet welcomes him as you place the plate down on his table.

chenle’s little visits every week had started to become frequent ever since your cafe had introduced the yellow sweet that seems to have become his favorite the more he started to drop by. mark had just started working around the same time this happened—which also contributed to the younger boy’s visits, either alone or accompanied by one or more boys.

the first time chenle laid his eyes on you, might’ve been the most embarrassing and revolting memory the poor boy has up to date. he had just come from a tiring day of playing video games with jisung—losing a monstrous amount of times, his hair sticking up in different directions as he had just thrown on an old dirty sweater in an angry fit before storming out of him and his friends’ shared dorm, jisung’s loud laugh trailing behind him.

“jeez. rough day?” mark couldn’t hide his laugh as the bells above the cafe doors rang, welcoming the mess of a boy. chenle grumbles angrily in response, muttering a short “one order of pudding, please.”

he was just about to turn, hoping to snag a seat far from the entrance, sulking at the streak of losses he had experienced from that day. alas, to his luck, he runs straight into a slightly smaller figure—a blur of y/h/c colored hair startles him as he poorly attempts to catch the waitress before she falls onto the floor.

chenle, apparently, was shit at catching people.

to his (and mark’s) horror, they watch as you fall to the floor. the landing wasn’t that harsh, enough to force a yelp from your lips as a stinging pain rushes from your bottom. the tray you had in your hand clatters to the floor, the empty dishes coming along with it.

“oh my god! i’m so sorry!” chenle squeaks, rushing towards you to ensure you weren’t seriously hurt. he nearly stumbles back in surprise as he sees your face fully. you had a minimal amount of makeup on—not excessive to the point it looked like it had caked up on your face but it was simple enough to accent the natural beauty you very obviously had.

his eyes instinctively slip to the small tag sitting on your blouse, “y/n” he reads, and somehow you had become even more beautiful in his eyes. your name suited you perfectly.

“i’m sorry sir! i should’ve looked where i was going.” you were sheepish, a shy little thing as you scrambled to pick up the dishes from the floor—silently thanking the heavens that nothing had been broken. chenle stutters in his movements, but recovers to help you up. his hand stretches out to grasp your own, a pink tint engulfs his cheeks as your hand readily grips his.

“y-you don’t have to apologize! it was my fault… miss. what time does your shift end? let me treat you. a-as an apology!” the boy quickly adds his last remark, seeing mark sniggering behind the beautiful waitress had caused him to fall back into a flustered mess once more.

though you were hesitant, you couldn’t deny how cute this mystery boy had been, messy hair and stained sweater and all. so, you shyly admit that the new pudding had been your most recent obsession—and chenle agrees to buy both of you a serving once your shift ends.

admittedly, chenle had never tried pudding before that day. but sitting there with you, watching as the last of the cafe’s customers slowly filter out of the small store, the lights dim as mark had started to close up… he couldn’t deny how sweet the dessert tasted on his tongue.

you would exchange stories on your lives, chenle sharing about the fact that he was close friends with mark, the detail surprises you as mark yells something like “don’t be fooled, y/n! chenle is a little wench.” which causes chenle to shout curses at the older boy, a boyish grin settling on his lips as he pushes the sleeves of his sweater up on his arms.

so, now that it has been three weeks since that first encounter, chenle has ensured to look his best—or at least better than that day—whenever he’d drop by the cafe. the bright boy was no longer timid and shy around you, often smiling at you and initiating cheesy pick up lines whenever he could. it was hard not to be infatuated with the boy, especially when he loves to wink and grin at you from his usual table the entirety of your shift.

on the one occasion you were out, a different waitress comes to fill in for your shift, chenle can’t seem to finish the sweet dessert sitting in front of him.

“something wrong?” mark calls from behind the counter, the cafe’s lights were dimmed once more—though this did little to hide the small frown chenle had on his face.

the boy shakes his head, his spoon playing with the sweet as he watches it jiggle slightly from the force of his jabs. “something’s different…”

mark grins, knowing exactly what was running through the younger boy’s head.

“it’s y/n’s day off, you dingus. here,” mark scrambles towards his younger friend, his pen scratching at the small notebook that was tucked away in his pocket.

a small rip causes chenle to look up at mark, his hand outstretched towards him—a small piece of paper hanging from his fingertips. mark shoves it towards the boy when he hesitates to take it, “it’s y/n’s number. now stop sulking and ask her out!”

chenle’s cheeks burn as he stares at the piece of paper, his heart thrumming as he tries to wrack his brain for ideas on how to start up a conversation with you. he quickly thanks mark before pulling his phone from his pocket, fingers flying across the keyboard.

“hey. this is chenle, mark gave me your number btw! i was just wondering when your next day off is? :)”

chenle, much to his surprise, shakes ever so slightly as his heart thuds against his chest. he had always felt this nervous around you, the result being pick up lines spilling from his lips. but texting you meant he had time to think, to process what he would say, to—

“oh, hey! my next day off isn’t till soon. but i’m free tomorrow after work and my shift ends early. :D”

the poor boy bursts into flames, the butterflies fluttering like crazy in his stomach as he clutched his phone to his chest. you hadn’t even said anything that significant, but to him, knowing he was texting you was enough.

mark laughs, shaking his head at his friends’ antics. how cute.

—

believe it or not, this was inspired by the pudding i had earlier at dinner 😭 mark’s character is also loosely inspired by robin from stranger things! just for the first few parts of the au though hehe :p

[9:39 am]

you shut your camera off as your back slides down your chair. this class was going on for a lot longer than you thought—your back was hurting and your eyes were drooping.

jisung: y did u turn off your cam?

a smile tugs itself onto your lips as you quickly type out a reply.

you: why do you mind?? miss me? :O

jisung: of course! turn your cam on rn.

Hc’s or drabbles for Xiao, Zhongli and Kazuha with a reader who gets clingy in the early mornings or late at night. Pretty much they make it really obvious if they’re tired, because they’ll get really soft and randomly compliment them and totally shower them in love. Do the boys still try to force em to sleep? Or enjoy the love for a little while hehe.

𝐏𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠‧₊› xiao, zhongli, kazuha x gn reader (separately).

𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲‧₊› their s/o is very clingy in the early mornings or late in the nights. how would the boys react?

𝐒𝐭𝐲𝐥𝐞‧₊› fluff drabbles. EXTRA FLUFF.

𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬‧₊› petnames, and a very sweet xiao. >:)

𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐫 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐞‧₊› feeling soft tonight, so i think this post turned out well. idk, hehe. hope you like it. 💓

Xiao.

The shared bed on the room of the Wangshu Inn where you and Xiao rest is your favorite place in all of Liyue. You could lie there and fall asleep after a while, losing track of time with your boy.

You let out a little whine as you rolled on the mattress, so sleepy you didn't even realize you collided with Xiao's back, who was sitting on the edge of the bed. “Hm? You should rest. It's already late for you.” Xiao bowed his head and raised his arm to see you well. Even with that tired expression you looked like an angel to him — The boy was trying his best not to smile like a fool for having you by his side right now.

“I don't want... It's not what I want right now.” Every time you blinked seemed like you were going to fall asleep at any moment. “What is it that you want then?” Xiao asked, not taking his golden gaze away from your delicate little face. His words felt like caresses of how soft they escaped from his lips. That only happened when he spoke to you in the privacy of your cozy room.

“I want you...” You smiled as you took Xiao's hand, bringing it closer to your face and snuggling your cheek into it yourself. The boy hesitated on how to react for a few seconds, he had even stopped breathing from shock. His cheeks flushed as his fingers began to slowly caress your cheek.

“You are the most foolish human I know. How can you say that to an adepti in this vulnerable state in which you find yourself in?” Xiao narrowed his eyes, which had a singular glow that night every time his orbs landed on you. “Don't go tonight. Please... stay with me...” your voice was losing intensity, until it became an inaudible babble, indicating that you had already fallen asleep. Xiao noticed this as he felt his hand slowly grow cold, as the warm grip you provided him was loosening more with every second.

“I... I love you. If your wish is for me to stay with you, so be it, my little dove...” Xiao whispered as he continued with his gentle movements of his fingers on your cheek. He was aware that you were asleep, otherwise he would never have said those words.

That night, he stayed with you until dawn, next to you on the bed, gently holding your hips to keep you attached to him.

Of course, he will wake up earlier to leave without being noticed. You will not even know that Xiao has been there all night, protecting you between the sweet embrace of his arms.

Zhongli.

The sun was beginning to rise and illuminate the window of your room. That only meant that in a few minutes Zhongli would have to leave the comfort of your home to go to work.

The bed shook a bit as Zhongli got up from it after dressing appropriately to go out, and you sleepily reached out to the now empty side of his bed, seeking some attention from him.

Zhongli leaned down to take your hand and place a kiss on it. “I must go. I'll see you in a few hours, my dear.” he whispered so as not to disturb your sleep too much, which no longer mattered, since you were awake. “No... Stay a little longer...”

Zhongli widened his eyes when one of your hands awkwardly made its way to his tie, pushing him down onto the bed again. He dropped to one knee on the mattress, careful not to injure you. “I'm afraid I cannot, my love. Keep sleeping, it's early, yes?” Taking advantage of his position, he lowered his head to place a soft kiss on your forehead. You complained when the man got up again and separated from you.

Zhongli showed a sincere smile that lit up his face as he looked at you with his amber eyes. “I will try to finish my work quick to come home to you as soon as possible. Until then, we must both be patient.”

And much to his regret, he had to leave, but internally cursed everything he could. Mornings like that, when you were clingy, were his favorites. When you needed his attention, kisses and caresses, when you only needed him to smile.

But it's okay, do you know why? Because he will be waiting for the moment to come back, take you in his arms and whisper in your ear how much he has missed you during the time you have been apart.

Kazuha.

“Wake up, y/n. There is no time to lose, we must continue on our way.” Little shakes from Kazuha made you open your eyes with difficulty. You weren't mad at him for waking you up, instead you felt the need to stay where you were, hug the boy against you, and stay there longer.

The samurai sighed, sitting down next to you. “But, love...” Kazuha started, but was interrupted by the sleepy words trailing your mouth. “But, love..., but, love...” you faintly mimicked his tone of voice as you smiled. “Just come here, my boy, let's just rest a little longer.” He chuckled, his bandaged hand lightly covering his mouth.

“And what are we going to do here that we are not going to do out there?” he questioned, now in a more curious tone. He didn't even intend to insist on you anymore. “Well... we could stay like this for a few minutes.” As you said this, you hugged his waist, moving towards him to end up with your head on his lap. He lovingly ran his hand through your hair, brushing a few strands of hair from your face.

“I guess we can postpone the trip for later. Oh, y/n, you always end up convincing me so easily.”

And so, you spent part of the morning together, simply enjoying each other's company. He was happy. Now, with you, he could be called someone happy. He only needed your love and feel loved by you to have all his wishes fulfilled.
