°Yandere Zhongli x Fem! Reader°

- Chapter 1 -

Professor Zhongli. A reserved but kind teacher. Popular amongst the students for his personality and looks, has received love letters on occasion.

So, what was he doing after school, following a girl home?

He kept to the walls, walking quietly as to not alert her. He had to be careful. After a few minutes of hiding and carefully walking up to her, he grabbed her from behind. He took his gloved hand, which held a small cloth, and wrapped it around her mouth, while the girl attempted to escape. She twisted around, aiming for his eyes, but Zhongli was too quick. He pressed her against his chest, then the drug that coated the cloth gave effect. She collapsed. His work was done.

For now.

Y/N, along with her friend Childe, began their way to their next lesson, Maths. With Zhongli himself. The two of them sat down together as Zhongli began writing on the board. Childe stared at him in awe, taking in all of his features. 'He's so beautiful – '

'Shut up, Childe.'

Childe spent most Maths lessons just admiring Zhongli, who was well aware of this. He sighed and started teaching. 'So, today we're going to be learning about – '

'Please start the exercise on page 45.' Zhongli finished talking as the class began with their work. His eyes scanned the students, landing on one girl in particular. Y/N.

She was sitting with her best friend Childe, as always. His eyes narrowed. They were always together, since the start of school. It was up to Zhongli to change that. The lesson ended quickly enough and soon the bell rang to signal the start of break. 'Please pack up your things, everyone. Y/N, could you please stay behind for a bit. I need to talk to you about something.'

Childe looked at Zhongli, seeming confused but turned and grinned at Y/N. 'Guess I'll see you later then? You're so lucky, you get to talk to the prettiest teacher in the school. '

'Bye.' Y/N rolled her eyes as she got up to talk to Zhongli. Childe groaned but left the classroom, taking one last look at Zhongli.

Y/N approached the teacher, confused. 'What did you want to talk about?'

'A couple of things. Firstly, can you meet me in my staff room after school today? I want to... talk to you about something. But other than that, I just wanted to say how you're doing really well in my lessons. You're really smart and pretty... ' Zhongli looked at Y/N and smiled at her.

'Okay - Uh, thank you? If that's it, should I get going?'

'This is going to sound really weird, but...' Zhongli trailed off, looking away slightly.

'Yes?'

'Could I... have your number?'

'Huh? What - '

'Please give me your number.'

'Sorry, but, uh, no thank you.' Y/N started backing away, rushing towards the door.

Zhongli glared at Y/N. He then walked over to her, almost dragging her back, then tipping her head up with his hand. 'I just want you - '

'What.'

'Hear me out - '

'Stop.' Y/N gave Zhongli a swift kick, but the teacher was stronger than he looked. He grabbed Y/N's hips and pushed her against the wall. Y/N froze for a split second, then began to kick him repeatedly. 'Help! Someone help! Fuck -'  Zhongli put a hand over the girl's mouth, which she tried to bite harshly to no avail. She was cornered. Her mind tried working out a way to escape, but she was simply too terrified to think straight.

'Y/N. Stop this. I'll give you good grades. I'll tell your other teachers how smart you are, I can persuade them to help you in your studies. Just do what I want - '  Y/N's eyes widened, but at that moment, she had an idea of how she could escape. Just maybe.

The girl dropped down to her knees then clung to Zhongli's leg, hoping to overthrow his balance. The man tried to pick her up, to shake Y/N off, but he was in a position where he simply couldn't. Y/N pushed herself forward, almost pushing Zhongli off his feet with her movement. She then jumped up quickly and ran out the door.

Zhongli stood in the classroom, annoyed and angry.

Why can't she just listen to me? I don't have another choice now. I'm doing this for you, Y/N.
