to ache

January 1: Albedo will never forget the first day of the first year when this happened so suddenly.

After he greets his family a happy new year, (hearing Klee's voice made his heart delighted to see she was still the Klee he knew), Albedo's colleagues and friends all yelled "happy new year!" very loudly on the top of the buildings. The New Years party was one thing he never missed in order to make "college memories." And in these types of situations, there must be a lot of drinking, right? Well, yes. And surprisingly as much as anyone did not wanna believe, Albedo drank at the party.

And it wasn't just a glass, he almost took a whole bottle.

They didn't know what's gotten into their friend. Aether and Lumine explained when they both fetched to get Albedo for the party, he was still acting normal. The genius they knew from college was still in his normal state before, they didn't know what drove him to drink this much other than the other parties he attended.

When the party was over, Albedo was knocked out like a skunk on the couch. Eula knew she had to contact one person in order to get his ass back to his dorm room, and since Aether and his twin was far too drunk as well, she decided to call no other than Kaeya.

For someone who was close to Albedo, knew him from the cafe for years along with Venti, Eula knows who Albedo befriends with. And that includes the cocky photographer. She wasn't quite sure if she could hand her trust over to him, yet it was for the best (based on how Albedo talks so much about him all the time). The taller female (who was sitting beside the knockout Albedo on the couch), tapped her finger onto her thigh, waiting for Kaeya's number to pick up so she could tell him to pick this guy right out of the narrow building.

When he picked up, Eula was quick to inform him about the current situation and how his friend here fainted from drinking a little...too much. They were perplexed of why Albedo would go out of character and drink almost half a bottle of booze by himself (even yet he wasn't the type to drink), and why he would talk so much for the day. It was like that person wasn't even Albedo at all.

"The party had finished, and no one is here to drag Albedo back to his dorm room. Almost everyone here is knocked out apparently and I'm far too busy at the moment to clean up this place," Eula uttered through the phone. Kaeya laughs, "Why of course. Thank you for informing me, Eula—that is very thoughtful of you. I'll be over there to pick Albedo up so please keep him there while I arrive."

"Don't mention it."

He arrived at exact 2:47am.

Eula opened the door, and the lights from inside her house after the party was now dimmed to more brighter features to see more well in the area. In fact that there are still a lot of trash to pick up, plates to clean, floors to be mopped and rooftop garbage upstairs to be swept, Amber and both Bennett offered to help along, so it was alright for the young woman.

He sees Albedo all knocked out over on the huge couch—hair messy, lips leaving a small drool and his blouse a little unbuttoned. Definitely, not the kind of look he'd see the male have before in any other way in his life of knowing him. "Man's got bananas in the party. No one knows what's gotten into him but, I hope he's alright."

Kaeya looked over to Bennett who signaled him a beam. Smiling back, Kaeya sighed before picking the white-haired male up off the couch, both of his arms swaying on top of Kaeya's shoulders and feet carried by the older male while he slept. Eula walked over first to get the door swung open for them, "Be careful on your way back. You know where his dorm room is at, correct?"

"No worries. I got him."

A wave was all the goodbye the light blue haired female could give to Kaeya as he left the building to fetch Albedo home.
