       As your eyelashes fluttered open you were shocked to see that the one who had prevented your fall on the hard floor was none other than the infamous Xiao. 

When your eyes met with his you got lost in them for about 10 seconds when he suddenly stared at you deadpanned and pushed you away saying, "I know my eyes are pretty but you can stop staring." Then realizing he had said that out loud he covered his mouth and looked quite flustered giving you an internal chuckle.

     Hu Tao pulled you away then stopped and gave you a teasing look,
     "Sooo, what's up with you and my cousin?~" You pretended to be clueless but you knew exactly what she'd meant. "Y/N is gonna technically be my cousin in law!" She teased you saying it a bit too loud.

  "HU TAO..!" You hushed her while blushing furiously.   Luckily, no one you had known was in the atmosphere to overhear such a violation being said. 

Even though no one knew what you two were talking about, you still felt uncomfortable so pulled hu Tao to another part of the skating ring when Hu Tao smirked saying, "Just a heads up, trust me." She started, "He was looking at you the same way you were to him. Needless to say he definitely isn't weirded out by you so don't be too embarrassed." You were surprised she hadn't cracked a joke until that was interrupted by Hu Tao, "I better be your maid of honor at the wedding!"

  "And just when I thought you would hold back this time!" You laughed elbowing her. As you carried on talking Hu Tao occasionally teasing you even when the topic had no correlation with Xiao, you both heard an announcement and perked up when you heard,

"Hey skaters, as we do every night we will be playing a game of four corners. Whoever wins will be rewarded free gummy worms, popcorn, cotton candy as well as a drink of your choice!"

You and hu Tao looked at each other determined. "If I win I'll share, if u win share with me, deal?" Hu Tao arranged. You nodded and agreed to go to different sides than each other each time.  While Hu Tao ran to a vacant corner, you ran over to the corner with almost everyone in the skating ring. You were shocked when that corner was out and hu Tao looked determined as ever seeing as there were only two competitors left. She followed one person and once the other competitor was out she went to another one.

    When Hu Tao was announced the winner you cheered for her along with most of your friends. Ganyu, Keqing, and hu Tao went over to you with a mischievous grin. You wanted a hole to open up and swallow you into the ground when the words, "Sooo, have you two heared of Y/N's sudden crush?~" slipped out of hu Taos mouth. Keqing and Ganyus eyes widened, "Wait really?!" Ganyu asked curious to know who said crush was. Keqing added, "Y/n, tell us who it is NOW!" You nervously responded, "Uh.. No one, it was just a misunderstanding I don't really have a crush on anyone..."

Keqing clearly seeing through your lies rolled her eyes smirking, "oo~ It's him isn't it!" She questioned pointing to Xiao who was skating towards the four of you. Xiao looked confused but just ignored Keqings statement.

The silence was awkward until Hu Tao broke it, "Are you and Y/n about to kiss right now?~" Xiao, shocked from her sudden teasing to the two of you; tried hiding his embarrassment stating, "Ew, never." You felt like an arrow had hit you and- wait one did.

A toy arrow hid you in the face and you were about the see who had thrown in when you looked down to see a child who was- ginger.. while you were disgusted at the child's ginger gene you couldn't get angry considering he was only a child.

You told the kid it was alright when suddenly ANOTHER ginger appeared, "Ah, sorry about my brother... I was watching him and I couldn't catch up to him when he went to the crowd." You shook his hand and said,

"Hi, I'm Y/n its nice to meet you."

He chuckled and said, "Names Childe, or you could call me yours.~" you looked at him in disbelief as you couldn't breathe because of your constant laughing, "CHILDE, LIKE A CHILD." you snorted, "Im so sorry..." you said in between laughs.

  Childes ego had been crushed and he was not enjoying it however kept his cool saying, "I have to say your cute when you laugh."

Xiao scoffed quietly and you suddenly stopped laughing when he frowned, "Aha, anyways me and my younger brother Tuecer have to go. See you around, cutie.~" he flirted.
As he skated away Hu Tao elbowed you teasingly saying, "Oh? never considered you two! You'd be a nice couple!~"

"EW... NO. That's disgusting." You shot back.

Keqing then joined in Teasingly saying, "You didn't deny it!" Ganyu then corrected her saying you technically had denied it while Keqing shrugged. Xiao slowly backed up uncomfortable from the three of them teasing you about their crushes. Especially after he told Hu Tao he had feeling for a certain someone the other day...
