alchemy - albedo x sucrose

chapter 3

~
Albedo was leading Sucrose up the mountain. She was grabbing crystal flies with her anemo while Albedo was mining starsilver with his sword. Albedo spotted the last starsilver they needed, yet it was high up on a cliff.

"Sucrose, you stay here and I will grab it. Don't move." Albedo put his hand on her shoulder then continued to scale the large mountain that was Dragonspine.

"B-Be careful Albedo!" She shouted, worryingly.

"Yep.." He was distracted trying to grab his sword and strike the blueish ore. He then slipped, his back hitting a rock, then his head.

"A-ALBEDO!" Sucrose shouted, watching him fall from the height. She caught him with a wave of anemo right before he struck a sharp rock that would have impaled him. His head was gashed open and bloody and his breathing was heavy and coursed. He was knocked out from the impact. Sucrose didn't know what to do. He would have bled out or frozen to death if she brought him to Barbara, so her only choice was to take care of him back at their camp. Tears had formed in her eyes as she hurried through the thick, freezing air of Dragonspine.

She got back to the camp and set Albedo down on his sleeping bag. Sucrose got out all of the first aid items and wrapped his head and looked for other injuries. She couldn't do anything else and she knew she wouldn't have the strength to bring him all the way back to the Cathedral. She set water beside him and sat down beside him. She stared at his sleeping face and laid down, soon falling asleep as well.

Albedos eyes fluttered open. He looked down to see Sucrose's face buried in his chest, her arms wrapped around his waist, and their legs intertwined. Sucrose looked incredibly calm and relaxed. He didn't remember what happened but he let her stay there. Albedo was very flustered but somehow fell asleep with his hands gently combing through Sucrose's hair.

Albedo suddenly woke up to a loud squeak and something falling.
