Pure (Albedo x reader)

A day spent at home

morning came none too soon, waking you up with the suns blinding golden rays. the surprise before you awaited patiently as he was still asleep, you recalled what happened last night and the black shadow that called to you as if it knew you like no other and after that, in your devastated and confused state, Albedo offered a warm hug as comfort.

Now, you had no clue why in the name of the archons he was in the same bed as you and frankly, it scared you a little when you woke up and saw him; of all people. After quietly yelping in surprise, you woke the light sleeper while Klee still slept soundly.

"Good morning..?" he asked, as if it was a question, "Why- what happened? why are you-" his grasp on you loosened as he broke the little hug that had lasted almost the whole night. "M-my apologies, you were distraught and i wanted to help ease your nightmares. Please do not take it the wrong way.."

Your gaze quickly softened as you sighed quietly, "it's fine, just..didn't remember you asking as that's what i expect you'd do.." He understood the mental state you were in at current; he was seen and pictured as a antisocial gentleman who simply loved to draw and worked tirelessly to fulfill his mission to understand the world.

Not only that, he was attractive and wanted by others; others that he saw no interest in for reasons that they saw him as a physical distraction or possibly a short 'fling'. Not only that but none shared interest in alchemy besides knowing how to use it to a small extent like Timaeus.

It was refreshing to feel someone didn't feel that attraction towards him, or at least, didn't know it yet..

"Hmm..Are you hungry?" his smooth voice broke the awkward silence that was shared between you two; "Hungry..? i um...i guess"

his blue gaze softened as he slowly and quietly got up, doing his best to not wake the sleeping pyro user. "Go back to sleep if you can" he whispered softly whispered, "You can cook?" you questioned with a raised brow.

"Well yes, i don't go out to eat very often as i don't like to waste food. Now go back to sleep, please?" you've never laid eyes on Albedo in a situation like this. He was soft, caring and not to mention how loving he was acting.

Was it just because he cared, or was it because he felt bad for you? well it's probably obvious but, it's a question worth asking, no? You smiled and laid back down on your side, content and sleepy was the best feeling to have in a state with no memory..

"Y/n! waaake up!"

bellowed a sweet yet somehow aggressive voice, none the less it woke you from your slumber to find Klee shaking you back and fourth. "Albedo made us breakfast!" She yelped and fell backwards when you sat up, "Ah..right" with a small yawn you got out of the bed and felt Klee's forehead for a spare moment.

"You don't feel super hot anymore, you feeling better?" she smiled brightly and nodded, "Mhm! i Don't feel super sick anymore! Barbara's magic is really cool like that!" she hopped off the mattress and ran too the door.

You took notice of her hair being down and brushed out, signaling you that she had been up much longer. "How long have you been up?" you asked whilst she ran ahead of you; "I dunno, an hour?"

she hurried down the stairs and jumped the last two steps and watched you walk down the stairs with a weary expression painted on your face. "I got her up!" she yelled into the kitchen, "You did?"

From your stand point he sounded almost surprised, "You sound shocked" you took a step into the kitchen and leaned your back against the wall as you were too tired to properly stand without wobbling a little.

"Well i came to wake you up earlier but you bundled yourself up in the blankets so i left you alone, I'm glad to see you were so comfortable though" he carefully walked over and handed you a plate.

"Pancakes with fruit that Sucrose offered to me from a successful experiment of hers"

Klee ran over to the table and you sat besides her, "Are you gonna eat?" you questioned whilst beginning to eat your own food. "No, I'm not hungry enough" with a raised brow you continued to question him. "Hungry enough? If your hungry then you should eat something at least!"

That same surprised look graced his face too see you care so much about his eating habits, "I have a small appetite, Don't worry I'll be just fine" He continued to be difficult with you but making the choice not to push him further, you ate in silence.

"What will we do today Klee?"  the small blond looked up from the plate of food she ate off of, bits and crumbs sticking to her face. "Can we make a fort?" she responded before swallowing her food, "Klee, no talking with your mouth full" Albedo hummed as he made himself coffee using boiled water and coffee beans (dirty bean water).

She swiftly apologized before wiping her mouth with her sleeve, "So, a fort? what kinda fort?" You asked softly while leaning on your hand while chewing; "A blanket fort!" She cheered once again with a mouth full. "Klee" he sighed, drinking his coffee.

"Can we make a pillow fort? please?" Klee begged while that little childish glimmer in her eyes produced puppy eyes, "I have no problem with it" Albedo hummed softly to request your assistance.

"Klee, let's go get a bunch of blankets! If you finish your food before me, maybe we can steal blankets from Albedo's bed.." his head tilted to the side with furrowed brows, "What was that?" he questioned your last sentence.

"Nothing! hehe.." Klee and you giggled simultaneously while you continued to eat, laughing again now and then.

then Klee finished before you and hurried up the stairs while you struggled to finish the last few bites in a hurry, "Slow down, you'll choke" He urged before you looked up and smiled at him, swallowing your last bite.

and just like that, off you went to follow Klee; and to screw up not only your own neat bed but also Albedo's..well it hasn't been made yet so why not?

"perhaps i can ask Lisa how to court someone. I doubt Kaeya will know anything useful.."
