Detectable Rivalry~ Heizou x fem!reader

⁂ Confirmed Confession ⁂

There you sat. Inches away from the man who just admitted he liked you.

'Do you like..still feel..the same?' You asked, trying not to sound too coy. He looked at you. Not just your face. It felt like he was looking at all of you. He took in every aspect of who you were. Made you feel as if you were the only person in the world.

Wind blew hair against your face. With a slow and swift movement, Heizou lifted his hand and brushed the strands away, tucking them behind your ear. The silence pained you. He was either toying with you, or didn't feel the same. You prayed with every inch of your body that it was the first. The seconds he didn't answer felt like forever. 'Yeah. I do.'

And that was enough.

You were inches apart, and the confidence which engulfed your body only held a tighter grip. You gently grabbed each side of his face, and there it was. The gap between the two of you snapped shut. Your lips met his and you swore there was a spark of electricity. His body tensed a little, before he moved his arms from his side and onto your waist. Your hands found their way onto the nape of his neck. Neither one of you pulled away. You didn't want to. You didn't want to pull away and it all be a dream. You didn't want to wake up and realise that nothing he ever felt was real.

And then you woke up.

You woke up from the grasp in which this overwhelming confidence had on you. You pulled apart. Looking into his eyes. Lust and remorse swirled together. 'I am so..so sorry..' You whispered, putting your head in your hands.

He carefully peeled your fingers away, holding one hand with his and tipping up your face with the other. He smiled. He felt everything when he looked in your eyes.

And then your lips reconnected again. This time, he took control, moving a hand up your arm and onto your lower cheek. You felt him smile, you felt him breath out a little, you felt him.

You pulled away at the right moment. As much as you wanted to carry on, something needed to be addressed on what just happened.

'I think i like that side to you, Y/n' Heizou smirked, looking at you. You noticed how his eyes curved in every time he smiled. How the marks under them smiled with him.

'I've been waiting for this, ever since you fell asleep on my shoulder under the Sakura tree.' He continued. You felt mesmerised by his words. 'Me too.' Was all you could stutter out. Everything was blurred except for him, as if the world was trying to tell you that nothing else mattered.

The silence was perfect. It said everything that needed to be said.

Heizou took hold of your hand, squeezing it gently. You felt safe with him around.

Heizou's POV

I just wanted to stay like this for the rest of our lives. Anything that happens tomorrow doesn't matter. Anything that happened yesterday didn't matter.

I saw her head tilt up and look at the stars. I watched how they glistened in her eye.

'And to end the night, i'm going to bed.' I said, watching her face sadden. I stand up, her hand still in mine. Before i slide the door open, i turn around and lean down.

'Did i mention how beautiful you looked tonight?' I whispered in her ear, watching how her face washes into a red tint. Smirking, i let go of her hand and walk out.

After i finally get into my room, i flop directly onto my bed. I allow my face to turn a deep red as i exhale. 'That was the hottest thing someone has ever done..' I mutter to myself, placing both hands on my face as i remember every inch of her.

Y/n's POV

So there you sat, looking out over the balcony as you try to process what just happened.
Beautiful.
Beautiful.
Beautiful.

Your face doesn't change colour at all. It stays a crimson red. Your heart beats 10x faster than usual. You feel butterflies swarm around in your stomach.

Waiting for your body to regain control, you finally stand up and make your way back into your bedroom, before flipping down on the bed and smiling so wide it could reach Liyue. 'That was the craziest thing i've ever done' You mutter, placing your head in your hands.

The night has a warrant over you. No matter how hard you try, you just can't fall asleep. The memories of tonight flood your head.

I wonder if Heizou can't get to sleep either?

Without a second thought, you stand up and head towards his door. Knocking on it lightly, you adjust your pyjamas and hair to make sure you don't look insane. The door slides open, and there stands a shirtless Heizou with grey joggers. You freeze for a moment, before snapping out of it after Heizou ruffles your hair. 'What's up?' He asks, retracting his hand and placing it on his hip. 'I couldn't get to sleep, and i was wondering if you couldn't either?' He smiles and shakes his head.
'Wait here, i know just the thing.' He leaves your sight for a second before returning with a blanket. 'Huh?' Is all that manages to escape your mouth. 'Cmon, go get on your shoes, i know a place.' You race to find some easily accessible shoes and slip them on. Heizou takes your hand and leads you out.

The cool December breeze wakes you up even more than you were before. Heizou still takes a hold of your hand, making you warm up inside.

He leads you to a tree. The tree. You sit down in front of the giant Sakura tree and Heizou copies. He drapes the blanket across your shoulders and onto his.

Pulling you into a gentle side-embrace, you rest your head on his shoulder as he rests his chin on your head.

The last thing you feel is a soft kiss being planted on the top of your head, before you drift off into a peaceful sleep.
