xiao TOOPSSSSS
"welcome home, xiao~!"
"get off of me!"
a surprised hug attack from behind angered the kitty you wrapped your arms around, a laugh filling your lover's ears. xiao had just arrived back at the apartment you shared with him. you arrived home earlier, so finally seeing him come back made your yearning for company disappear.
"huh? what do you have? is that dinner?" hanging your head over the shorter boy's shoulder, xiao lifted up the plastic bag with a sigh.
"mr. zhongli gave it to me. he told me to share it with you." xiao let the plastic bag leave his hand as you took it from him, a huff came out of him once you got off his back.
you opened the bag and peered down with wide eyes of interest. "ohh. it's sweets.. they look pretty fancy though."
"he got it from childe."
xiao walked passed you, kicking off his shoes as he dropped off his stuff next to the couch in the living room. you shook your head, fixing his shoes to be neatly placed beside yours, then going into the kitchen to drop off the sweets.
"i'm going to take a shower." xiao stated, shooting a glare towards your way, "don't sneak in."
with a pout, you watched as xiao retreated into your shared room, closing the door behind him. you had a habit of sneaking into the shower with him. things got rowdy in there and you would end up using more water than usual, causing the bill to make xiao go crazy. after that, he had to remind you not to go in the shower with him. you understood why but obviously wanted to do it again.
'he's so cranky.. oh well.' you made your way over to the bag that held the sweets, peeking inside. 'he'll lighten up later anyways.'
the sweets inside were decorated cutely, three designs mostly decorated with chocolate and few fruits. reaching down you picked up a familiar pastry that resembled [favorite sweet]. you took no hesitation in taking a bite.
your lips brushed against the soft pastry, leaving evidence of crumbs on your lips. as you chewed, you felt the pastry grow soft and chewy, a familiar scent grew on your nose. it was a strong smell that you knew all too well: wine. you stopped chewing for a second, raising a brow as you stared at the remaining pieces of the pastry.
it wasn't odd of childe to request wine or any kind of alcohol into food, especially deserts. zhongli must've given it to xiao since that old man wasn't much into alcohol. you, too, weren't really an alcoholic person, but seeing that the pastry tasted good, you ate the remaining pieces and wiped your hands.
by the time you finished your desert, xiao came out of the shower with a damp towel around his neck, hair dripping at the ends of his hair, and wearing a loose t-shirt and baggy pants. you stared at him as you leaned against the counter, watching him sit on the couch and rest his back against it, closing his eyes. you couldn't help and notice his brows furrow as if he was annoyed.
just as you were about to pity him, you grew a bit lightheaded. you shook your head for a moment before coming to your senses and making your way over to xiao.
"xiao-xiao." you called out once and got no response. you stood in front of the male with your hands at your sides. xiao's arms were wrapped across his chest, his face as stern as ever.
you slightly frowned. you reaching your own hands out and pulled his arms out of the crossing position. he didn't give a reaction when you placed his slightly moist hands on your waist. you then let yourself take a seat on his lap, still making his hands lay on your waist.
