Xiao

“What were you thinking??“

Xiao was standing in front of you, anger shining in his eyes. You took a step back, intimidated by his sudden outburst. You had just came back from a mission with Aether, where you hurt your leg. It wasn’t anything too bad; you’d just need to rest for a week at most. Yet, Xiao made it look like you had almost died. You furrowed your brows, confused by his action.

“I was just doing my duty! I was just helping!”

The adeptus sighed and rolled his eyes at your answer. This just made you even more confused. If you weren’t supposed to help, what were you supposed to do?

“You should have let Aether do it, (Y/N).”

“So… I’m not supposed to help him? I should have let him do all the work?” You took a few steps in his direction. You blood was starting to boil with anger. “Am I just supposed to stand to the side and let him work?”

Xiao didn’t move as you moved towards him. Then he answered, looking you straight in the eyes:

“Exactly. Aether is stronger than you. You’re going to be a burden to him if you keep acting like that.”

The blood that was boiling in your veins was now frozen. You felt as if Xiao had stab you in the heart with a cold blade, then freezing your blood inside your own body. You stayed there, looking at him with a pain expression. Xiao slowly realised what he said, and panic flashed quickly in his eyes. He tried taking your hand, but you dodged his.

“(Y/n)… I-“

“Is that how you see me Xiao? Is this how everyone see me?” you asked, looking at him. Tears were pooling in your eyes, threating to fall at any moment. “Am I a burden because I try to help?”

“(Y/n), that is not what I meant!”

“But you said it! You said that I was weak and that I was a burden!” Tears were now rolling on your cheeks. “I am not weak, and I am not a burden! Why can’t anyone see it?”

By now, tears were cascading on your cheeks and sobs were getting caught in your throat. Your head was dizzy from all the thoughts spinning inside. Lately, you’ve been training like crazy, just so you wouldn’t be a burden. Did you fail at that too? You were in so much pain from all the physical training you were putting yourself through. And you were in so much pain from being ignored all the time by everyone.

“Didn’t you see how hard I’m trying Xiao? I’m training daily, so that I won’t be a burden. I’m in pain from all this training! I’m in pain from everyone ignoring how hard I’m trying! Because no matter what I do, people only see Aether! They never see me! Even if I’m helping him all the time!”

Xiao stayed silent, looking at you. Of course, he had noticed how hard you were trying and how hard you were working out. But he never thought of telling you how proud of you he was. And now, the guilt was eating him up. He took a step forward and put his hand on your shoulder. This time you let him do so and he felt relieved when you didn’t move away. Slowly, he pulled you into a hug. He hugged you close as your body was still shaking from the sobs.

“It hurts Xiao… It hurts so much. I’m so tired…” you whispered between sobs.

“I know (Y/N), I know… I’m sorry, I didn’t notice everything you were going through sooner…”

“It hurts Xiao, it really does… Why does no one notice how hard I’m trying? Maybe I should just give up…”

Xiao shook his head and you felt his hug becoming tighter.

“You don’t have to stop entirely. But you do deserve to take a break. You don’t have to push your body over and over like that. You’ll just hurt yourself even more if you continue! You’ll get sicker, and then… And then… Maybe you won’t be able to help anymore… You are so important to me and to Aether (Y/N). We don’t know what we would do without you. I do not know who I would be without you. So please, take a break. You deserve it… I’ll go grab some food from YanXiao and I’ll be back before you know it, okay?”

You nodded slowly, still not looking at him. You felt guilty for feeling this way, because you knew how hard Aether was trying as well. But you couldn’t help but feel your heart hurt when people were always thanking him and ignoring you. Xiao then spoke up, as if he had read your mind:

“You’re doing amazing (Y/N), you are amazing. But let me take care of you, okay? You deserve it.”

Venti

You had met Lumine a few months ago when she first arrived in Mondstadt. You weren’t a high ranked knight or anything, but you two often crossed paths during your respective commissions. This led to you helping each others quite often. And so, Lumine and you decided to team up to take care of some business together. You were not the strongest person out there, but since you started working with the traveler, you definitely felt that you were getting stronger.

But you were the only one noticing the changes. No one else ever did. And no one else acknowledge your presence in this teamwork. It was always all about Lumine.

Tonight, you and the blonde were staying in an Inn near the Dawn Winery. You had to track down some Cicin mage that was roaming the area. The mission was successful, but as the Sun was going down, you and Lumine decided to stay in the small inn. Lumine stayed downstairs with the employees and other guests of the small house. You quickly made your way to your assigned room to the second floor. There, you try to tend to your wounds. You could have asked the inn’s healer, but of course their attention was all focused on the girl. So you were once again left alone, to deal with the pain yourself. As you were trying to wrap some bandages around your wrist, you heard laughter bursting from the first floor. Until then, you were able to ignore them. But now, they just seemed to get louder and louder, and you couldn’t ignore them anymore. You were now forced to listen to their words.

“Ah Lumine! You did such an incredible job today!”

“We truly don’t know what we would do without you!”

“Always fighting all by yourself… You really are the strongest person out there!”

As more praises and laughs spilled from their mouths, tears started spilling from your eyes. You only realised that you were crying when the tears started to fall on your bandaged hand and when they left a wet spot on the fabric. Realising that you were crying, you couldn’t help but feel even more horrible. Were you jealous of Lumine? These thoughts were now spinning in your head, and guilt was starting to consume you. No, that’s not… That’s impossible, right? Your thoughts were interrupted when you heard the window opening suddenly and felt the cold wind entering the bedroom.

“Eh, (Y/n)! I heard Lumine was here, so I figured you’d be here as well!”

You quickly wiped your tears with your hand before turning your gaze to Venti. He was sitting on the windowsill, his usual smile displayed on his lips. Of course, he knew you were here only because of ­Lumine. You shook your head slightly to chase those thoughts and offered him a small smile.

“Well, your intuition is always right, isn’t Venti?”

“Mh-hm! But my intuition also tells me that you’re not okay (Y/N).” He got up from the sill and closed the window before walking to the bed, where he sat. “Did you get hurt during the commission? Do you want me to go get a healer?”

“No… That won’t be necessary… They don’t have to lose their time with me.” You answered, shaking your head.

Venti lost his smile at those words. He furrowed his brows and looked at you with clear worry in his eyes.

“Why would they be losing their timewith you (Y/n)?”

You felt your lower lip trembled a little at his question. You were no longer able to look at him, so you cast your gaze on your hands, resting on your knees. The wet patch on the bandage made it clear that you cried earlier. You didn’t want to tell Venti how you felt. You felt so horrible for being jealous of Lumine, and you knew he’d see you as someone horrible if you told him. Yet, the answer slipped out, and you couldn’t stop it.

“Because I’m not Lumine.”

Your eyes widened when you realised what you said. You squeezed them shut quickly, ashamed of your words. Venti wasn’t saying anything, and it just made you more and more stressed. Was he despising you now? Was he mad at you? Was he going to leave you here? Was he going to-

“(Y/n)… Is that why you were crying?” he asked, gently cupping your cheeks with his hands.

Fresh tears started to fall from your eyes again. Venti carefully wipped them with his thumbs, still talking to you.

“Of course you’re not Lumine… But that’s why I love you! You’re the one I love, you’re the one I absolutely adore(Y/n)! Lumine is great, but not as great as you. I know how you feel, love. But you work so hard, I know how hard you work. You’re the strongest person I know (Y/n), and you deserved to be loved, okay?”
