ayooo I'll try to write this chapter faster so y'all have sum to read soo here we go and THANK YOU FOR 800 READS ily all so much!

I awoke and looked around. This was.. My room in heaven, right? Had I died? No, I live in heaven, stupid. This didn't really look like my room, though. I just felt cloud. And I just always assume the same thing- cloud equals my bedroom. When I try to sit up, I get tiny little flashbacks from what must've happened yesterday. Ugh, my head hurt. I close my eyes again.

When I open them, I'm not in my bedroom anymore. I'm on the floor, supposedly in Mondstadt? It was dark and the sky was red, the air smoky and puffy. I see a figure appear out of the mist. It was Keqing again.

I watch her figure walk closer to me. She kneels down next to me and gazes me in the eyes. She takes a long breath. Then after, she says, "Get out of the past, Ganyu." She finally voices. "I'm not in the past. I'm sure I'm in the present." "No, you're in your head. Stop worrying so much." Keqing assures me. I sit up and feel my horns. 

"If I really am in the past, how do I get out? How do I return to the present?" I say hastily, shaking my head. Keqing grabs my hand. "Calm down. Listen to what I'm about to say. Close your eyes." Keqing asks softly. I quietly close my eyes, giving ear to Keqing's words.

Keqing wraps her arms around me. I don't open my eyes. I start sobbing silently. "It's alright.." She pats my back softly. "We can get out of this, okay?" Keqing calmly asks me. "Y-yeah, okay.." I nod my head. Keqing tells me to open my eyes. I look at her. She moves her hands up onto my face and pulls me in closer. She kisses me, while I, shocked, close my eyes again.

There suddenly was a bright flash. When I open my eyes again, I'm in Mondstadt. Well, I was in Mondstadt before, but this Mondstadt was.. different. It was a brighter, more colorful, Mondstadt than I had remembered. There were lots of locals walking around, the Anemo archon, the traveler, Jean and Lisa...

I gazed at Keqing, standing beside me. She was smiling. I smile back at her as we listen to the sound of the commotion in the town. "The Inazuma Festival has already ended, but there's a firework show going on anyways. Would you like to go to Inazuma?" Keqing breaks the silence. I really wanted to hang out with Keqing right now. Really. Seriously. But, I knew the rules. I would be executed if I started dating a demon- why am I thinking about that? We are just friends, she was just trying to help me, nothing more than that. Plus, if Ningguang sees- "Ganyu." Keqing puts her hand on my shoulder. I flinch at her touch. "Be calm." Keqing says in a sweet voice. I slightly blush, but don't think much of it.

Keqing summons her teleporter again, and we both go to Inazuma. It's still the middle of the day, so we walk around, trying to find something to do. We stop at a Dressing shop with a bunch of kimonos and dresses, in which Keqing seems quite interested in. "I can get you one if you'd like." I tell Keqing, pulling out my coin pouch. "No need, I have some money on me!" Keqing assures me, waving her hands. "No, no, I want to. Just let me." "Okay, but only if I can get you one, Yu!" "Deal."

"Yu, you look gorgeous! Especially with that little bow!" Keqing blushes. "You look beautiful, also." I tell Keqing. "Your hairpin is crooked, let me fix it." I reach forward and fix Keqing's hairpin. When I put my hand down, Keqing feels the place where her hairpin is at. "Thanks." She puts her hand down.

All of a sudden, we hear a little crack noise coming from the sky. Keqing and I look up. Fireworks were blasting everywhere, blue to red—and then pink—too many colors to count. Keqing peacefully watches the setting sun in the sky as the vibrant colors reflect on our faces. I look at Keqing then look up again. 

Keqing grabs my hand. I look at her again. What is she doing? She lifts up my head with one hand and kisses me.

"I love you."
