Modern Times (Xiao x Aether)

I am sorry for all the changes! This is my first time writing a fanfic and the whole plot is STILL adjusting, so please read my info (bolded texts) they are super IMPORTANT and sometimes I WILL add spoilers for the people that read them!

Xiao's POV

I woke up early hoping I could see Aether early but I remembered, it was a Saturday and he wouldn't be working.

—

'I'll just text him.'

Xiao: Hey Aether.

Aether: Are you feeling better?

Xiao: Yea, thanks for asking.

Aether: That's good to hear!

Xiao: What are you doing today?

Aether: Going to the farmers market.

Aether: Why, wanna come?

Xiao: Sure I guess, I was just going to stay home and boring stuff.

Aether: I'll send the address!

______

I was excited to I'd be going with Aether alone to the farmers market.

'What should I wear?..'

Quick intervention!
Super sorry that this chapter the POVS will be switching a lot from Xiao to Aether and back. Hope you enjoy.

Aether's POV
______

I arrived at the farmers market and decided to look around before Xiao came.

—

( The farmers market and supermarket are totally different things, so please search up farmers market to get a clear picture of what it is, because it is different from the supermarket or regular markets and super important to the story! )

My phone started to buz so I took it out of my pocket.

It was a text from Xiao.

Xiao: Where are you. This place is big.

Aether: Haha this place is super big! I'm at the dragonfruit shop! I'll wait for you^^

Xiao: Alright.

______

I looked around the shop looking at dragonfruits.

"Can I help you?" A older lady asked.

I assume she owns the booth.

"Oh, um I'm just looking!" I answered.

"These dragonfruits are very delicious and sweet! Would you like to try some?" She asked grabbing a plate of samples.

"Oh, sure!" I replied not wanting to be rude.

The dragonfruits had been cut up into little cubes with toothpicks on each of them. I grabbed one and ate it.
