Her ice heart melted (Itto x Oc)

A trip to Inazuma

Shelby, a Cryo user and the sister of Shenhe in Liyue. People have described her as a strict, serious, and a cold hearted person. And they aren't wrong, she also had that tough childhood with Shenhe which caused her to grow cold. She was always stern. That was until she met someone who turned her Mount Everest of a heart into a ray of sunshine.

It was an average day at Liyue and Shelby was in Bubu pharmacy hanging out with her friend Quiana. They were both distant from people so naturally they got along. Shenhe walks in to check in on Shelby "Hello you two, how are you both?" She asked, Shelby and Quiana both look at Shenhe "Hey. We're doing good, just hanging" Quiana said in a monotone voice. And Shelby just gave a cold look, "I'm fine. You don't need to worry about me" she said sternly, Shenhe gave a face of genuine concern for her sister.

Shenhe understands her anger, she really does. But she constantly worries about her and wants to keep growing more cold than she already is and just wants her sister to be happy. Shenhe and Shelby left the pharmacy as it was getting late that night and as the 2 were walking home Shelby had her usual cold expression. Shenhe really wanted to do something for her to make her happy. To see her smile just once in her life, they got to their home and Shelby didn't even bother saying good night and just went to her bed.

Shenhe just sighed as she was used to her behavior. She walked into her room and sat on her bed with a saddened look on her face. She sat there for a while thinking on what she could do for her, then an idea popped in her head.

The next morning Shelby woke up and walked out of her house. She was immediately greeted by Shenhe standing outside "What do you want?" Shelby asked sternly "I wanted to do something for you. So I took the liberty to get these tickets for you and Quiana to a place called Inazuma" Shelby was left confused. So confused that she was a little angry "You did what?!" She lightly shouted, "You got tickets for me to go somewhere far from here! Why do you even bother acting like you care about me. You want me gone from your life!" Shenhe felt hurt by her words "No, I don't!"

"JUST ADMIT IT ALREADY! YOU HATE ME TOO AND WANT ME OUT OF YOUR SKIN!" Shelby shouted, Shenhe then grabbed Shelby by the shoulders "NOW YOU JUST LISTEN TO ME!" Shenhe then sighed to calm herself down "I want to help you because you are everything to me. I just want you to be happy, so please. Just give this trip a chance, I got them for you." There was a moment of silence, not a sound was made until Shelby broke the silence with a sigh "Fine. I'll go, but if end up injured or worse dead, I'm blaming you" Shelby stated, Shenhe then hugged her tightly "Thank you for doing this"

Shelby didn't bother hugging back "You said Quiana was coming too, right?" Shelby asked, Shenhe ended the hug to look at her "You are correct, I also got one for Quiana so you wouldn't be alone" Shenhe confirmed, Shelby raised her eyebrow

"Is she aware?" She asked, Quiana then suddenly appeared from behind Shenhe "Yep! I know the whole thing." She said and walked closer to Shelby "And I do agree with her, it couldn't hurt to try" Shelby lightly growled "I get it. Let's just get going already" she said as she walked off to the docks, then Quiana caught up with her. They were able to get onto Beidous boat and began their journey to Inazuma "......I wanna go home" Quiana said "Do you think I want to be here?" Shelby snarked.

On to Inazuma they go and the adventure of their unexpected love begins.
