Cream~ (Xiao x Aether fanfic) [Coffee Shop AU]

Chapter 8: His short return. . .

(I hate the fact that I came up with this idea out of nowhere, anyways...)

[Btw this is like after the weekend]

(Aether's POV)

As me and Xiao headed to work, everyone was there waving and smiling at us.

"So Xiao, how was your date~?" Amber asked with a grin.

"It was fun! We watched a movie, baked together and something more fun than both~" Xiao said while pulling me closer to his side.

"X-Xiao! D-Don't tell them about it!" I said while covering my face in embarrassment.

"Haha~! Okay okay~" Xiao said while giving me a kiss.

"Get the camera, Keqing!" Ganyu said while pointing at her.

"On it captain!" Keqing said while going in the kitchen.

"W-Wait! Huh?!" I yelled out in confusion.

Xiao grabbed my waist and kissed me again.

"I got the camera!" Keqing said while taking a picture of us kissing. Xiao had stopped our long kiss for some air and then looked at Keqing.

"Can I have that photo?" Xiao said while walking towards her.

"Haha! OMG~!" Lumine and Ganyu laughed.

"Oh my-!" Zhongli said while he held onto his neck.

"Why are you holding onto your neck like that..?" I asked with a polite tone.

"As most of you all know, I have a boyfriend.. And w-well he kind of..." Zhongli said while he blushed.

"Let me guess.. He made you his bitch~ Show us your neck!" Amber said while giving Zhongli a evil grin.

"Okay okay!" Zhongli showed us his neck and there was a bite mark.

"I knew it!" Amber yelled out!

"Yea yea whatever... Alright, we should head to work now since everyone is here." Zhongli said while walking to his office.

"Ugh! I wish somebody could cover my shift..." Amber sighed.

"Why?" Me and Xiao asked.

Amber made a expression of like she had a idea. 

"I can make my friend cover for me~!" Amber remarked.

"What's their name?" I asked.

"Oh his name is Diluc!" Amber answered

"Didn't he quit?" Xiao asked.

"Well... Yes. But he said: 'I'll never come back until my brother gets fired!' ... That's what he said okay." Amber said while crossing her arms.

"Who's Diluc?" I asked again.

"All I can say that he was friendly.. I really miss him.." Ganyu said with a sad tone of voice.
