Kaeya wasn't an idiot. He'd known for a while now his feelings for Albedo weren't platonic. 

The moment it fully hit him was when they danced together.

In that moment, dancing with Albedo was the only thing on his mind. Their hair waving about, their eyes sparkling, the adorable smile he wore. It was obvious to him. Dancing with only him had made him feel like that.

Hiding it wasn't easy. Especially when said friend kisses you constantly and washes your hair with the daintiest of fingers whilst telling you you look like a painting.

Why didn't he just confess? Well Albedo had been so stressed taking care of him was more important. Not to mention he has a kid. Klee was super sweet but your dad suddenly dating someone would probably be confusing. Also Albedo didn't seem to reciprocate.

So he decided it to not show it. Maybe leaving it might even let it go away. 

It wasn't easy at all and the urge to blurt it out did come multiple times. But he'd managed to keep it under wraps. 

A tear slipped down his face but he quickly wiped it away. This was for the best. Albedo obviously didn't feel the same.
